Exactly this. Once a reliable and scaleable cryptographic standard comes out based on quantum computing, you can bet your bottom dollar that it will be either for government/military-use only, or available to the public but riddled with backdoors. FWIW, Brandis and Dutton are two utterly inept politicians. Both are gaffe machines, and one may actually be a sociopath. I don't know if they fully appreciate the gravity of what they are advocating.

In the most recent case of a Tesla crash, the driver had ignored all safety warnings to put his hands back on the wheel and was speeding to boot, and the accident itself was ruled the fault of the other driver due to a traffic violation. As well as that, Tesla's are sports cars, not everyday vehicles, and everyday vehicles would benefit immensely from V2V. The cost would be miniscule in comparison to infrastructure like the roads they drive on, and could save thousands of lives every year once this is mainstream and implemented in the majority of places and vehicles. As for the mesh networking being compromisable, so what? They'd still be safe, they just wouldn't be safer.

Holy crap, you're right. Is this a thing? 'Ad homonym'? Someone cal Merriam, Webster too!

I'll claim that 10th out of 10 case

1. It's hominem, as in person. 2. Claiming ad hominem whilst AC is laughable. 2. In 9/10 cases, if your opinion isn't worth putting a name to, its probably bullshit.

I wish I had mod points for you and ShanghaiBill. Couldn't be more correct, unfortunately.

I take it you've read Donald Trump's tax return then?

Seems entirely relevant

Finds a non-Trump article on Slashdot, complains about how everything on Slashdot is related to Trump.... Well you're not technically wrong, you're just stupid.

I wonder how this would be making Russia feel, having its BFF help Ukraine wean itself off Russian energy...

In Australia (and other locations where the majority of livestock isn't raised coastally), I could imagine the real issue being transport and distribution of the feed. There are a lot of livestock farms within 100km of the ocean, but the majority of farms there would have to undertake seaweed feed for their livestock to make inland distribution viable, or the inverse, where inland stations would be a much larger customer that would grow a business to a size large enough to be able to afford to consider coastal distribution to more numerous, smaller farms. That being said, I'd be interested to see the comparison in emissions of grass-fed vs grain-fed vs seaweed-fed livestock. Most livestock in Australia is grass-fed, and as such produce a healthier and more nutrient-rich meat than the grain-fed variety, so you'd also have to take into account the gut microbes of the and nutrients of the final product before the economic case of seaweed would even come into question.
