This would all be great if the police were benevolent.

Which county has benevolent police?

I'm under the impression that most Ring users actually want their data to be used by the police to help stop crime (or whatever). Certainly some do. I can't find a poll on the topic though.

Along those lines, he can stay in office until his successor is elected. How he acts after may well depend on who wins.

Oxford close quote tag.

Trump fans keep telling me how evil Biden was for pre-emptively pardoning Fauci, so I assume Trump will do the same.

Trump is not healthy enough to live through a third term.

Sounds like AWS Lambda. It's all great until you write a recursive function and leave it running overnight, and then have a big bill at the end of the month.

In other words, be careful to look at expenses if you turn this on.

Could be a spy swap.

Putin isn't going to make a deal on Ukraine until China plays their hand, and China won't make their move until the US is entrapped as possible in Iran.

Code for, "we don't know who it was, but calling them a state actor will distract from our poor security."

Did conservative politicians decide that almost all young males needed to be put on Ritalin? Or that teh solution to self esteem issues was teaching children they needed to be rewarded for getting their shoes on the right feet? or that Or that male teachers needed phased out because all men are sexual predators? Or that schools can assist in transitioning children to a different "gender," and that the child's parents have no right to be told? Yeah, that was all conservatives causing all problems.

Your hatred of anything other than the far left wing is showing.

And before you take the standard accusing me of being in support of all things conservative, I do believe that conservatives played a part in school problems. There is blame to go around. Funding problems, Issues with banning books. You on the other hand, are not capable of seeing anything beyond a narrative fed to you by people who are on a faction of the left that cannot take accountability. And in fine fettle, you don't either.

Yes, but not just parents. Schools, media, pop culture. All had a part. And the public schools had an outsized effect.

I managed to keep my son away from the worst of it. Kept him off the drugs the schools wanted him on, taught him that self esteem comes from accomplishment, not because the teacher told him he was the center of the universe, and he had great potential. He's doing okay. His Ritalin drugged up friends? Not quite as well.

And the worst thing we taught the kids is in your answer. It's always someone else's fault.

The flaw in the assumption that suddenly people won't know anything is that entry level changes, technology develops. People will be hired who will develop as the technology changes. This is a process that has gone on for a long, long time.

This, the slashdot resident doomers appear to believe that somehow, someway, the ultra wealthy will somehow remain ultra wealthy after they are the only people left with any money. And where does their money come from? Mebbee they didn't pay attention in economics and math classes?

Things change. Technology changes. At each stage there is a wailing and gnashing of teeth, "Our Jerbs!" we hear, soon no one will be working because AI took their jerbs. Yet if people don't give Bezos money, Bezos doesn't have money.

I came into the work world during the latter part of the transistor revolution, and the start of Integrated circuitry ascendency. I programmed on IBM 360s with punch cards. I went from tape VTR editing, and Frame Buffer 3d animation frame by frame to non-linear editing, then computer only video. Went from chemical based photography to implementing a digital photography process.

Each bit of progress was vehemently opposed, one woman even lost her job, after trying to sabotage digital work.

And the strange thing, while people demanded stasis, I looked at the new technology as an improvement. Then again, I altered and kept my job while some people lost theirs.

AI is in it's infancy, some things aren't sustainable, like the concept of energy gobbling dat centers, but my money is on a process similar to computers going from things like colossus and Eniac to things like the 360's to personal computers to that little smartphone so many people are addicted to.

Antibodies are used in research because they can be trained to connect to almost anything small. Once they attach in the body or in a petri dish, you can use western blotting or florescence or other techniques to find the antibodies, and you've found what they attached to.

There are a number of other uses: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

The question was what motivation Iran would have to attack a power plant in the UK. And there is the answer.

As for the rest of your post, I agree, it doesn't seem likely this was a hacking attempt, and attribution evidence is missing.
