Don’t forget the loss of productivity in the hours before the meeting, spent worrying about it.

It’s not so much that we know there was nothing before it, but that we can’t figure out what was before it.

Randall did the math on this one: https://what-if.xkcd.com/31/

He assumes 64 GB microsd cards, if you use 1 TB ones, you could send 16 times more.

Easiest and most secure way? Mail (or hand deliver) a flash drive. That’s how they transfer data between super computers and data centers. (AWS even has dedicated trucks to do it)

No one’s gonna talk about how they turned referral links into a piramid scheme?

Get a display case and put a note with the story on it. That way it’s clear its being kept from historical/sentimental value and not because you like Nazis.

Hot take, C is better then C++. It really just has one unique footgun, pointers, which can be avoided most of the time. C++ has lots of (smart)pointer related footguns, each with their own rules.

All that other stuff was filtered out, but the tritium is near impossible to separate, because it is chemically identical to the hydrogen in normal water.

As for caesium, there are still detectable amounts of Cs-137 in most of the word from the thousands of atomic bomb tests. It’s half life is just 30 years, but it will still be detectable for a hundred years or so because of the huge amount we released.

A banana naturally has has around 15 Bq of potassium 40. Assuming a volume of 100 mL, mashed bananas have around 400 Bq/L.

Currently, the treated water has around 250 Bq/L, around a fifth of mashed bananas. In other words, a banana smoothie could easily be more radioactive then the water as it was released.

The banana’s potassium 40 has a half life of more then a billion years, so it’s not going anywhere, unlike the tritium who’s amount will half every 11 years. Also, potassium is concentrated by many plants and animals, while tritium is not.

pass otp. Works, more secure then SMS, open source.

Fake nudes of real people are generally illegal, regardless of if the nude is real, or photoshopped, or AI generated.

People have been arrested and convicted for AI porn of real people.

For now convictions seem to be confined to people who have already created/used more traditional CSAM (hidden cameras). This could just be because it is hard to catch someone simply generating images, so if someone with no record would be jailed for just fake nudes remains an open question. Fake nudes of fictional people are also very much an open question. Being very new technology, new laws have yet to be made, so feel free to write to lawmakers about where the line should be.

And more importantly, take investor’s money. Most tech company are constantly losing money and depend a continuous flow of investor money.

Reddit lost 90 million dollars last year, that’s why they did the IPO, so they could sell the problem to some sucker. Snapchat lost 1.3 billion last year, and would run quickly go bankrupt if people stopped investing.

As usual, the best way to get rich quick is by selling a get-rich-quick scheme.

Next DEFCON is in two months, can’t wait to see them get absolutely pwned.

No no, don’t tell them. That way they won’t be able to spread outside of that one suburb.

Totally, 100% for sure not related to all those skeletons on the floor.

Na, those are fake, made from putting this toxic synthetic “plutonium” stuff in this big machine called a reactor.

Run the BIOS self tests.

Something’s definitely broken (TPM errors, self test errors, graphical artifacts), but I can’t tell what from the image. I would guess motherboard problems, or a subtly damaged CPU.

Could also be more then one problem in the case of over voltage (worst case consequence of PSU damage), or intermittent failure from under voltage (should be fixed with a new PSU).

Seriously, what did he expect? The first thing you learn before getting a gun is to never assume a gun is unloaded or safe, even if you just checked it. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. As always, safety rules are writen in the blood.

I think it is highly unlikely someone gave him a gun without going over the basics of or of him intentionaly ignoring safety rules for the video.

Like a kid trying very hard to sound like everyone else. “Eloquent bullshit generator”
