Humidity is currently 91% in Yangsan.

City Council member of a non-listed Twin Cities suburb I know:

FBI is involved. Most water systems use one of two control/alert systems that are old and make them easy targets.

All they did was shut down components of the systems e.g., wells/sewer lift stations. Most cities were able to cycle manually to get back up and running. There was not messages warning or ransom of which I am aware.

They could have done a lot more damage if they wanted to, rather than just shutting things down.

I live in Plymouth; there was no city communications about this nor did I see any issues. So, I assume there were no physical disruptions to service.

I had one breakthrough DMT experience where I saw 'the machine elves' (I just saw what I describe as fast-moving fractals that I 'felt' were beckoning to me); but, we have matching experiences w/the other primary psychedelics: I only had relatively minor on-top visual distortions with even the largest doses of LSD (1500+ mcg) or mushrooms.

That said, everyone is different. I know that some of my friends absolutely lost their fucking minds on a few tabs of LSD and, purportedly, experienced wild hallucinations that I have to trust were real to them but haven't ever experienced myself.

I had VERY SPECIFIC requirements and I wanted the extended warranty. I would have paid 2x at a dealer. I know what I was doing.

I bought a used 2020 XC90 from CarMax last week. I did everything online from shipping it from Texas to Minnesota to financing the extended warranty. I walked in the door, gave them a cashier's check, and drove away within 10 minutes.

That's how it should be.

Anthropic is prepared to loosen its current terms of use, but wants to ensure its tools aren't used to spy on Americans en masse, or to develop weapons that fire with no human involvement.

The Pentagon claims that's unduly restrictive, and that there are all sorts of gray areas that would make it unworkable to operate on such terms. Pentagon officials are insisting in negotiations with Anthropic and three other big AI labs â" OpenAI, Google and xAI â" that the military be able to use their tools for "all lawful purposes."

You want to stop AI disruption of society and replacement of humans jobs, and stop it cold? Give it rights. That takes away the entire motive most researchers and companies have to develop and use it.

Corrupt government officials? WTF? Is this really Slashdot? Show your evidence.

There are two ways around that.

First, if you happen to be attacking your neighbor and you share L2 WAN with them, you simply put the 10.x address in as destination IP and the neighbor MAC address as destination MAC. Done. No NAT required, the traffic will just pass.

Second, some NAT implementations look at only a three-tuple of IP, port, and protocol. If you connect from port 40000 to some random site, the NAT will translate that to a different port, say 30000, and it will allow any traffic from the entire world to port 30000 to hit port 40000 on your device. Hopefully your device does not have anything running on 40000 so it will all be fine -- but it might not be. This type of NAT used to be VERY popular, because it makes things like P2P traffic work without having to configure anything.

So you are saying that the firewall on the ISP device is going to save you from the attack that NAT failed to save you from? Why don't you trust the ISP to get the firewall right for IPv6 then?

If there ever was a comment to show Slashdots decline, this one is it.
