This is why Google has been using their browser monopoly to push their “Web Integrity API”. If that gets adopted, they can fully control the client side and prevent all ad blocking.

Greatly increasing taxes for the super wealthy and closing tax loopholes would be a good start.

Honestly, I think his communication here is fine. He’s probably going to offend some people at NIST, but it seems like he’s already tried the cooperative route and is now willing to burn some bridges to bring things to light.

It reads like he’s playing mathematics and not politics, which is exactly what you want from a cryptography researcher.

I think they already have. I held off on Wayland on my main machine for a long time due to Nvidia issues. For example, I was getting rendering issues where some windows/popups would be totally invisible until I moused over them. Those issues are now gone, and I’ve been running Wayland for the last few months with no problems at all.

Some Chromebooks are pretty hackable. I’ve got an older one that I reflashed with tianocore UEFI firmware. It makes for a pretty decent cheap and lightweight low power laptop. You can run basically any standard ARM Linux distro on it.

What do you define as “source” for an AI model? Training code? Training data set?

Who ever said signal is anonymous? Secure, private, encrypted - yes. But definitely not anonymous.

This isn’t their first rodeo either. https://haveibeenpwned.com/PwnedWebsites#MGM2022Update

Syncthing is another good cloud-free option.

Pinecil works OK for small things, but struggles on larger joints because of it’s low power and small thermal mass. Personally, I’d prefer one of the many Hakko/Weller clones for a cheap solution.

Have you tried 3D printing enclosures? There’s a bit of up front cost if you don’t have a printer already, but after that the material costs are pretty cheap. It’s really cool to be able to make a custom enclosure with all the cutouts, integrated standoffs, panel markings, etc all in a single print.

If you like mechanical pencils and want some color, look up clutch pencils. I apologize in advance for fueling your addiction.

One that can take a USB storage device or an SD card would be much better. Same result, but no messing around with discs and it can hold way more music.

There are many that can be reflashed with open source Tasmota firmware. Sonoff is one of the popular ones.

The higher orbit should mitigate most of those issues. There’s more space, so a dead craft is less of an issue. It takes long enough to reenter that most of the radioactivity will have decayed. The biggest issue would be a launch failure.

Pretty much every successful YouTube channel edits titles. It’s just part of the algorithm game now. You will often see videos cycle through several different titles shortly after release.
