Macdonalds banned Graphene OS? Okay Ronald.

Aegis is a better alternative to Authy. Open source.

:frowns:

I thought Chrome devs went hard on fuzzing API's after the timing attacks went big ... circa 2020.

Back to the drawing board.

> Only the richest of us are worthy of privacy, right?

  I put GrapheneOS on a $179 Pixel I got off eBay. Works fine. Battery is at 97%.

You only buy new phones? Must be nice, moneybags.

Fortunately the US isn't the only one taking measurements, and with satellites other countries have data for the US.

The boomers introduced many of the policies that screwed things up, largely based on the assumption that every subsequent generation would be larger (more people) and wealthier. Climate change when they knew it was causing problems is a part of it, but so is the pension system that is basically a ponzi scheme, and house prices.

Every subsequent generation was smaller and less well off, but the boomers are still demanding what they promised themselves. They aren't willing to use any of their oil-based wealth to mitigate climate change either. In fact a lot of them seem to want to accelerate it.

Comic Tropes just released a video about this sort of thing.

Two Japanese manga artists, one accused of plagiarism and the other not. Both copy poses from fashion magazines and photos of famous artists, but one traces them directly while the other takes inspiration from them and then draws his own version from scratch.

A subtle distinction, but an important one.

To be fair he has developed a lot of other people in the industry, and created the Beats brand that was sold to Apple.

There is always an element of luck - right place, right time, or born to wealthy parents - but he does seem to have some talent and understanding of the industry.

Arguably this is a demonstration of that. In the end people won't care if the bass line was made with AI, that's not why they listen to the kind of music he produces.

There's nothing particularly interesting or surprising about it. The barrier is there to protect the robots from damage, and to protect the spectators and the stadium from damage. These are experimental machines and weigh enough that they could cause damage or injure someone.

The stretchers are for the same reason, basically. The robots have to be autonomous, with the only remote control being a kill switch to make them inert, for safety reasons. To prevent the teams having to go onto the track to recover their robots, they simply stretcher them off. Saves time, and helps control human access to the track. Similar to motor racing where cars are recovered by track staff, not the teams.

These are all long established safety rules for any kind of event involving machines, or even equipment like swords and javelins used by human competitors.

There isn't any reason for them to rush. They are on track, and the manned missions aren't affected by the delay. They certainly would be affected if it failed though, as they would need to build new hardware and repeat the mission to find a suitable landing spot.

First, I thought everyone knew about this, the same as using the HTML canvas and CSS to do fingerprinting. I'm sure they aren't the first to do it. That's one reason why audio permission has defaulted to off in my browsers for as long as I can remember.

Second, even if you for some reason trust Amazon and the like more, AliExpress is how you avoid getting shafted by middle men. 90% of the stuff on Amazon is just AliExpress resellers and a 1000% mark-up. Boycotting them is going to be very, very expensive.

Ironically there are treatments that show efficacy but they range between not FDA approved and illegal.

You can go to Mexico or the Caribbean for some of them (or find underground psychiatrists).

Getting lots of regular sleep, exercise, and going ketogenic can dramatically slow progression but there is a tau prion aspect that is difficult to halt. Lots of Omega-3's can keep your astrocytes healthy.

Some evidence supports ultrasound treatment but it's probably the higher harmonics which are not well characterized or even understood outside a few labs (ASU, et. al.).

Use protection as the tau prions don't stay in the brain.

We deserve better psyops.

If the reporter had read Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent they could have done a better job but let's not give them any ideas.

BBC has always been in the business of narrative construction in service of the powerful to control the population.

And also Benny Hill.

The mid range of the standard distribution thinks particles are real physical objects.

One end of the curve thinks that sounds like nonsense - the other end knows they're mathematical abstractions with no intent to claim a physical description.

Some people are working on a physical model (bounded surface area / Pauli exclusion) but in the odd world of Mathematical Physics the physicists Interested in the physical are sneered at.

It's reminiscent of "that bitch is so ugly" heard from the mids about the prettiest girl in the room.

"You, boy, what's your business model?"

"We sue IBM hoping they'll pay us to go away."

(n.b. econ majors - this is not productivity)

Why would they give a warning? The result will be increased security at more valuable targets.

Most likely some bored kid who doesn't have any geo-political motivation.
