I think the technical term is "Spam in a can".

Rusticles can't imagine that there are any vulnerability problems other than memory safety.

Rust will NOT save you from SQL injections or bad passwords.

If you read the article carefully, they are talking about lenses THINNER than a hair. I see several of the posts here thinking the width/radius of the lenses is this small, a reasonable mistake given the way this was written. Having a radius that small would severely reduce their light gathering ability, requiring very bright light or very dim images or very long exposure times.

They've got so many Russian spies in the USA that the known list is more than the FBI had man power to track; and that was in fact a problem during Obama! Super cheap to send tons of spies here who are paid for by us unwittingly. Putin raised the amount to record levels; above cold war levels - much cheaper than the bloated waste the USA spends on tech and military gear.

Anything connected to sharing info or being spied on by the USA is compromised.

Last time the CIA kept things from Trump because he's an idiot and they pulled out their spies that weren't already dead (again likely because of Trump.) Certainly there are people who've been placed since 2016 besides their #1 asset in history: "agent orange."

I always love your posts.

You're like a walking ad for voting conservative. You do more good by opening your trap than Charlie Kirk ever accomplished.

Yes, I am a "denier" of ridiculous panic.

Note your word-use's religious overtones. That's not accidental. "Denier" as if what you assert is irrefutable.

The world is generally great. It's a great time to be alive, generally speaking. Certainly some people are struggling, there's always some.

Young people are struggling, no doubt.

Gee, it couldn't be logical consequences of say:
- in order to save your friends' VC $ coming out of the dot.com era, you
- insist Fannie May and Freddie Mac open the taps on housing loans to huge numbers of worthless people who predictably default
- let government-selected and -promoted agencies classify these shit devices as AAA
- act shocked, shocked I say! when the entire sham collapses
- punish NOBODY, and certainly don't pull the official imprimatur from any of the rating agencies complicit in the scam
- use the crisis to vastly expand executive power (I mean, since OBVIOUSLY no Republican was going to ever win after Bush, right?); massage economic data to pretend interest rates are 0% for nearly a decade.
- OOOPS, not only a Republican but HITLER AND THE DEVIL COMBINED won instead of Hilary. Spend the next 4 years doing basically nothing but try to impeach him for ... whatever shit you made up that week that stuck.
- Put in a senescent puppet on the throne for 4 years, print money as fast as you can, demand $15/hour for every shitty part time job in the country; act shocked, shocked I say when businesses close, trim jobs, and prices go up. High interest rates (esp when previous buyers are paying 2% or lower) absolutely shutter the home-turnover market, and fuck new home buyers*
*who are also shouldering $six digit college loans why? Because the 'everyone should go to college' federal money fountain of the 1990s+ caused college prices to go up 3x+ the rate of inflation - nice!

BOTH parties are complicit in this bullshit, by the way.

Your ability to turn every fucking thing into a political screed AND a 'sky is falling' narrative IS impressive though, I'll give you that.

Personally, I think the Orange Man is dumb as fuck, but I'd rather have his particular cadre of incompetents in charge than the VERY seasoned and professional grifters that were puppeting Mr Biden for 4 years (and, let's be honest, expected Obama to be followed by Her Majesty as well). Part of the reason he's won twice is that he's despised by the Insiders(tm) of BOTH PARTIES.
Better a government that can't shoot straight and has an oppositional media than a highly tuned corruption engine with a collusive media cheerfully telling us to stop asking questions, eat the bugs, and that there is no difference between men and women.

...given that (for example, this cool video) Mercury is emitting a comet-tail of sodium ions for millions of km as well.

It's pretty reasonable that ANY planet has a comparable 'tail' of whatever gasses/solids that can be easily knocked atomically from their atmosphere/surface, at whatever solar energies reach them, including earth spattering the moon with water vapor.

Or - hear me out - maybe Democrats' 4+ year efforts at CEASELESS lawfare against "orange hitler" have the teensiest bit overstepped rationality and needed to be routinely slapped down because the idea that some backwater district judge can block the constitutional duties/responsibilities for the President of the US nationwide at a whim is untenable and ridiculous?

Look, I get it. Slashdot is ideologically captured. The most vocal posters here insist there is no definition of woman, the earth is climate changing tomorrow into an uninhabitable wasteland, COVID was nigh unto the Black Death, and that Trump is building vast concentration camps for trans, queers, and everyone on Bluesky because he's a Nazi. You go girls.

Meanwhile, literally every single demographic of voters except (lol) white women is shifting inexorably right. To be clear, I genuinely don't believe they're shifting right, they're more or less staying where they were, but have gradually realized that the unhinged left is so repellent - and, we find, murderously psychotic - that they HAVE to vote against the insanity and are doing so.

So - you guys and gals and whatevers, just keep screeching! Keep screaming how oppressed you are and how terrible everything is. Free Gaza (but not the 50 hostages, amirite?)!

You're doing the Lord's work, just not perhaps the way you think you are.

That's "fantastically expensive advanced carbon-fiber rock" you insensitive clod.

And the Eisenhower is itself a bit of a trailer queen, so they are a matched set.

I'm glad they're promoting this.

We need to celebrate excellence again; astronauts should be our best and brightest.

I wish them all the success in (& outside of) the world.

It has already failed. People just refuse to see the truth. The voters are incompetent and corrupt so they get the government that reflects them. It's that simple.

Can it revert to functioning again? Possible but unlikely. Rome died over 300+ years. They don't die instantly.

NOTE- most Americans won't realize until it's so bad they can't deny it and some will never get it even if he does Musk's Nazi Salute because they are still in denial over that.

Modern despotism has a fake democratic element so the lower third of the bell curve don't participate in any resistance or help defend the despotic "democracy."

Aside from the constitution being flawed and totally not a religious document as some idiots believe, the Congress is the most powerful branch of government. This co-equal BS is like saying apples and oranges are equal.

The congress writes the laws; which is the greatest power and that is why so many people share that power. The "CEO" only can execute those laws; not rewrite them or interpret them. It's supposed to be a much weaker position and still a design flaw that other governments improved with ministers. The courts settle misinterpretations (2nd most powerful, split over multiple people;) especially, intentionally stupid interpretations - they can't invent new laws. If they do, congress can clarify with new law and if they get ridiculously corrupt, they get fired by congress. If the "CEO" gets out of line, they can fire the president too; being like the board of directors.

The "CEO" doesn't have invented powers beyond the rules or even the policies and it doesn't matter what a corrupt court says because the "board" can fire them all at will with only the "shareholders" to keep them in check at elections... when the system works and the voters are not too gullible. Which they are.

Trump may as well start firing congressional staffers too; since he ignores all the laws anyway. I bet the GOP won't even push back if he fires all their staff...

Irony? or gullible idiot? can you be so stupid and still manage to create an account and post something? This is so stupid, somebody must be helping or it's just a trolling for fun.

it's a Monday night. People can freak tomorrow. Though it is not a surprise they continue corrupt rulings.
