In the UK, many laboratories, depending on what they handle, require security cameras for regulatory reasons. I am highly dubious that California is any different. The regulations exist for really good reasons that don't evaporate in California. So there must be some loophole that allows restricted laboratories to have security cameras.

I would then note that most data centres have security cameras everywhere.

You are not allowed to put it in a toilet or shower room, but anywhere else is pretty much fair game. It's not California, but the ECJ ruled that you basically have no right to privacy at your workplace.

Cosmic rays don't originate in the solar system, aka they have nothing to do with the sun.

Numpy is a wrapper on a bunch of pre existing libraries primarily in C and Fortran. A language which lacks arrays cannot do serious scientific computation without engaging another language to do the heavy lifting. As such Python is a garbage choice though it seems to be popular but that does not change the fact it is a garbage choice. Sometimes the crowd is wrong.

Adding to that I was primarily a Linux user even back then, but would occasionally dual boot into Windows. So same hardware, BSOD galore or at least frequent enough to be very annoying, but Linux as stable as could be and not a kernel panic in sight.
So clearly not all down to unreliable hardware.

That was the only pad Russia had which has the infrastructure necessary to launch humans into space

No where in the UK more than about 80 miles from the coast and most places considerably closer. Very little inland water has a sandy beaches

Basically, a replay attack. The only GNSS immune to replay attacks is Galileo, and possibly Beidou. GPS encryption prevents the enemy from obtaining precise location data, and that's it. You can use a replay attack with the encrypted data, and you are good to go. Because Galileo was designed much later, when all these potential attack vectors were known about, they took steps to make it immune to them.
What surprises me about this war is that all the drones are using GPS or Glonass rather than Galileo, especially as they are all well below the ~1000knts speed limit imposed on civilian receivers.

Put the bulk of your bitcoin in a wallet, print it out onto paper using optar or similar, and put it in a safe box in a bank. Then delete all "online" copies. No amount of torture is going to help a kidnapper.

I very strongly suspect that when they say "cursive" they mean "joined up" aka ordinary adult handwriting. At least that is the usage in education in the UK.

In the context of education, "cursive" means "joined up" as opposed to printing every letter individually. It does *NOT* mean writing in italic etc.

In the UK the shortage of British born doctors, dentists etc. is entirely down to a deliberate decision by the UK government to restrict the number of places at University to less than we require. To the point where British-born children are going to Bulgaria to train because they cannot get a place at a University in the UK.

Argh, the first genocide in the history of the world, when the population suffering genocide went up. A genocide, which, according to UN figures, requires Israel to flatten three buildings to kill one resident of the Gaza Strip. The problem with the left is that they are now equating the deaths of large numbers of civilians in war with genocide. On those grounds, the Allies committed genocide against the Germans and Japanese in WWII. See how stupid that now sounds?

So if I have an apartment complex deliver fibre to the basement and then Cat6a to the flats at speeds up to 10Gbps, I can't call it fibre internet because the last bit is over copper? Noting that unless you are plugging an SFP-based ONT into a suitable NIC in your computer, the last bit is coming over copper or even wirelessly.

Tylenol or paracetamol as the rest of the world call it (never get what it is with Americans and trademark names) usage has not particularly changed over the last 50 years but rates of ASD have. Right there we have an issue with the notion that it causes ASD. Yes paracetamol can in an overdose cause liver toxicity so can Vitiman D you berk. Dose is everything.

Same for vaccines. The number of childhood vaccines has basically stayed the same since I was a child 50 years ago, but again the rates of ASD have gone *UP*.

Occams Razer is out because the math is simply not mathing.

The Dell Optiplex 7090 SFF sitting next to me ready for my brother to pick up to replace his Windows 10 machine is both running Windows 11 and has PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports.
