Good question, and perhaps poorly phrased on my part. I'm really just relaying news I heard on the radio, so this is my own interpretation to be taken with a grain of salt. 5G can be used for private networks, sort of like a large-scale Wi-Fi, which makes communication secured with SIM/eSIM authentication. It's often used for trucks and robots. Private network functionality also exists within 4G but only for 4G LTE, but in this case an open network was used, which made it possible to carry out password-based attacks.

And yes, the stores were connected to a central server that was compromised; from there, a command was sent to 700 stores, instructing them to defrost their freezers.

Many refrigeration systems in stores are connected via 4G or 5G to allow suppliers to perform remote monitoring and maintenance.
The control system are exposed to the open internet, but often coupled with simple passwords.
In the previous similar attack in France it was revealed that the freezing systems were protected by a trivial password.
An upgrade from 4G to 5G was scheduled for Wednesday, a measure that would have made the system more secure.

The irony is that the monitoring system existed precisely to prevent such an incident.
It even issued a warning, but it was sent via email, and not noticed.

And Linux is a small part of the greater EMACS operating system.

Economic changes can take time. Take a look at the dot-com bubble which started April 2000 and ended October 2002.
And a supernova explosion is usually very quick, perhaps seconds, but yes the final stage with expanding debris can take thousands of years.

How about just capturing and purifying used Helium? That would at least make current reserves, that are finite and non-renewable, last longer.

The size of the Nordic countries is about 2.88 times that of California, and I'm ignoring Greenland here.

New EV car sales in the Nordic region is doing well. Here are the figures from August 2026:
Norway = 98.7%
Denmark = 85.9%
Finland = 51.6%
Sweden = 45.5%
Iceland also has a percentage.

Denmark's population is just over 6 million.

Many countries like Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Finland, all have personal identification number, based on date of birth. It is fairly similar to the American Social Security Number but that does not require citizenship.

There are also countries that lack some form of personal identification number, such as Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. In Germany, it is illegal to have a single number that links all systems, which forces them to use different numbers for the same individual.

You honor my joke question with attempted seriousness.
Maybe writing a Shakespearean play with psychologically complex protagonists requires a creative human author who truly understands what what being human means, and not merely probabilities?

Are you implying that LLMs can't create a Shakespearean play?

Trump's Secret Service would have a problem.

Yes. Democratic values like freedom and equality require voters to understand how the world works, and science is the best way to achieve that knowledge.

There is a visitor?

United States has the largest automotive trade deficit for cars while China, Germany and Japan have the highest trade balance.

Don't forget the most important reason, freedom.
