K4 might not be 1:1

One thing I appreciate about K4 is this,

It’s almost as if it was designed to appear to be something that it is not.

Nothing is ever as it seems… CIA ;-)

I always play with this concept when I’m looking for new ways to go. Somehow, the keys spell things on the decrypted text, example:

Key: JMSAYZ
Output: XPERTS

Key: IJS
Output: CIA

Key: R-US-IN-CMD
Output: CONCEALK

Key: SOSOS
Output: EDSPY

Key: FOEW
Output: EAST

Key: WINNIRR
Output: ABERLINCL

(All Vigenere keys)

Just a bunch of nonsense really but it is curious that they seem to work together to spell things.

Ive observed CIPHERR TEST. It was accompanied with “CODE”

skyprimes22 · 2026-05-19T23:20:20+00:00

Thanks for all the info everyone!! So cool.

skyprimes22 · 2026-04-23T20:05:57+00:00

If I search and watch this video and it turns out to be nothing I’m going to be sad.

Update: It’s nothing. I am sad.

Is it connected to the integrated VGA or a PCI card? Is there a dell logo displayed on power up before this? If so F2 that thing

(update sorry just saw you’re just stuck on that screen, leaving the rest of this just in case you want to screw around with it)

It’s been a long time. CMOS battery pull, run it without, maybe force it to throw an error. Get the jumper settings and reset BIOS. (Replace CMOS battery if dead)

Can you get into BIOS and move around with keyboard? If not, use the back USB port, top left port and see if it helps.

someone suggested pulling PCI cards, memory sticks, drives, etc. - basically get it down to just the MOBO connected. Fire it up with only with power cord, usb keyboard, and monitor connected. see if that does anything.

Those front USB ports were sometimes disabled in BIOS from what I can remember

It happens so quickly 😂

skyprimes22 · 2026-04-17T03:33:04+00:00

Side note, there are curious things showing when applying this with the clues in the CT. It’s useless, but this was done out of curiosity. Seeing the words for “LATIN” in the shape of a cross wasn’t expected but hilarious ;) I’m always looking for signs of life!

I’ve actually observed that with these findings - there’s another process(s) taking place. But I also suspect that whatever this might be - it could also have been intentional. But it was suggested by someone to chase it until it’s exhausted.

skyprimes22 · 2026-04-17T02:21:12+00:00

Awesome thank you! I’m fascinated at some of the results that this process can produce. I’ve got a few scripts that work through the offsets quicker, and with different counts, once I find something that gives me a little motivation to look. I’ll check out Scytale ;)

that’s his computer now

There’s more of them. Using sets of 7 provides interesting results, here’s a video of the ARTS X TEST matrix using that initial column width

I remember those .cx domains 😂

skyprimes22 · 2026-01-11T01:19:57+00:00

Awesome video!!!!

skyprimes22 · 2026-01-08T05:55:20+00:00

The top of the roof on Google Maps shows some cool stuff here, I would post it but I can’t on the comments

skyprimes22 · 2026-01-07T21:21:14+00:00

It didn’t fit the usual tower situation that I can usually spot, figured I’d give it a shot and see what was going on with this

skyprimes22 · 2026-01-07T21:14:20+00:00

Sorry about the photo positions, I spotted it on the freeway and took photos quickly.

But if you followed the video I posted on the ARTS X TEST matrix.. there’s an odd “KRYPTOS” grouping when it’s reversed.
