Sweet, now I get to put “worked with NASA” in my résumé.
I’m a bit disappointed with the hypocrisy of some commenters here.
So many very questionable articles, posts and statements that can’t be verified regarding IDF crimes get treated as the absolute truth. Yet a statement regarding a fake story, verified by Hamas and Al Jazeera, gets reported and isn’t trustworthy, since it’s from an institution aligned with Israel?
Holy echo chamber, batman.
Dude, you are a horrible human being.
Steganography is a (fascinating) bitch. There are a lot of ways to hide a message in an image which is very resilient to manipulations like resizing, compression or even the loss of information by actually filming a screen versus taking a screen capture.
If you adjust your approach to not rely on a single picture to reliably convey a short message, but part it out over tens or hundreds of frames in a video, it’s basically impossible to make sure that the message was erased without knowing the algorithms used or rendering the video unwatchable.
It’s an awesome field and nothing new.
I’d support removing the post.
CEPA receives funding from various donors, including major technology companies such as Google and Amazon Web Services and key players in the defense industry like Lockheed Martin and BAE Systems. While they list supporters, CEPA doesn’t disclose specific financial amounts. This lack of transparency among think tanks raises concerns about potential biases in their research and publications.
Ah, the meaning of my comment went straight over your head and you resort to throwing insults around.
I’ll spell it out then: The fact that the first shot merely went through his mouth, from one cheek to the other makes it entirely possible, even probable, that Gary Webb commited suicide. Even his ex-wife said so:
Webb’s ex-wife, Susan Bell, told reporters that she believed Webb had died by suicide.[72] “The way he was acting it would be hard for me to believe it was anything but suicide,” she said. According to Bell, Webb had been unhappy for some time over his inability to get a job at another major newspaper. He had sold his house the week before his death because he was unable to afford the mortgage.
Spreading unfounded, exaggerated conspiracy theories while not even getting the facts straight isn’t helping anyone but the perpetrators, especially when the CIA actually did commit some atrocious crimes that can be cited by stating facts instead of fiction.
The first shot went through his face, and exited at his left cheek. The coroner’s staff concluded that the second shot hit an artery.
Not quite the back of the head.
Gaming on Linux has come a long way and I always prefer to run it on Linux rather than a dedicated Windows boot, if possible.
But if you rely on VRR, DLSS and have a decent HDR display, Linux unfortunately still isn’t quite there yet. VRR/HDR is mostly unsupported systemwide currently. DLSS sometimes works, sometimes requires a lot of debugging and ends up actually hurting the performance.
If your hardware setup allows you to run your games at a decent framerate without DLSS/VRR, this likely won’t be an issue for you.
And obviously that account isn’t even a day old. Trust him guys, he’s only here to debate! What do you mean russian bot/troll account? Naahhhh. Anyway, on an unrelated note, US bad, amirite?
Doesn’t even have to be malice. I’m sure that most instance admins are great, competent and caring, but setting up a Lemmy instance is trivial, securing it is not.
The default configuration of a proxy could log connections, the config interface may accidentally be exposed unprotected and so on. Again, I’m not saying that most instances are inherently untrustworthy. But, depending on your instance, you are trusting one person or a small team of volunteers to stay on top of everything andyou can’t expect them to drain their bank accounts in case of legal issues for you.
What?
Lemmy instances can log IPs and any other info they want all day long, there is nothing stopping them. In some jurisdictions they may even be required to.
Yeah, I mostly agree on that. Nuclear may be more expensive and risky, but it’s also very predictable. That kind of enables it to act as a sort of safety net to smooth over the variable nature of renewables, though changing the output of a nuclear power plant is a very slow process, AFAIK.
I’m not against nuclear power per se, I’m viewing it as more of a band-aid until more mature and universal grid buffers can fill the gap smoothing out the renewable input. Nuclear may very well be a necessary step for some nations to reach their climate targets, I’m not informed enough to judge that. But I fear that the money invested, lobbying and public opinion influenced by that seemingly easy alternative directly hinder the development and deployment of technologies that lead to a renewable, cheap and reliable grid.
Thank you for taking the time.
I’m pretty sure that nuclear power is vastly more expensive to produce and maintain. Especially when comparing to solar/wind, since fossil power isn’t desirable at all due to emissions.
Solar and wind generation is so much more efficient than even two decades ago, newer designs of nuclear plants aren’t really any more efficient, but safer and more expensive. So I’m still not getting the push for more nuclear.
Isn’t nuclear one, if not the most, expensive form of energy production once you factor in stuff like maintenance and disposal?
Not trying to do the whole hot take thing here, I genuinely don’t get why investing in nuclear is still pursued versus investing in renewable sources when mobility and land isn’t an issue.
EDIT:
“Tackling the climate crisis means we must modernize our approach to all clean energy sources, including nuclear,” said Representative Diana DeGette, Democrat of Colorado. “Nuclear energy is not a silver bullet, but if we’re going to get to net zero carbon emissions by 2050, it must be part of the mix.”
kind of provides at least a partial answer: Time. Though this quote gave me graphite control rod vibes:
Some Democrats and Republicans in Congress have criticized the N.R.C. for being too slow in approving new designs. Many of the regulations that the commission uses, they say, were designed for an older era of reactors and are no longer appropriate for advanced reactors that may be inherently safer.
Yes, but in fairness: The same is true for iOS or GrapeneOS, though that’s for valid reasons.
As much as I’d like to use a Linux phone, it’s simply not feasible for almost everybody at the moment.
What do people user their phone for?
Linux phones, at the moment, are way behind Android/iOS in terms of security and, since privacy requires security, also in privacy.
Even stock Android has so many more security features, that it’s not even close. Verified boot, exploit mitigation, (working) app sandboxing and so on. Not even speaking of specialized projects like GrapheneOS.
Even if the app ecosystem was there and the OS mature, I’d never run my banking through a Linux phone at the moment.
People really underestimate the psychological impact of something as seemingly annoying at best as a bug infestation.
I’ve encountered bedbugs over 10 years ago on holiday, luckily didn’t bring them home. After all this time, the first thing I think about when something itches in bed: Bedbugs.
That makes a lot of sense, at least from a subjective point of view. Cheers!
