"Iron River" - you're joking, right? These cartels can: - effectuate mass synthesis of illicit substances in commercial laboratories - handle massive intercontinental logistics - build semi-submersible boats - hire and kidnap

There's zero chance that the DC ground in the laptop is tied to earth ground in the charger: they use LLC resonant converters and flyback converters (depending on vintage) - an earth ground tie would defeat the purpose of these isolate

USB is nice, but electrically some parts of USB 1/2 are kind of complicated (not true differential signaling.)

Weapons aren't magic, and there exists no rule that says "destroy them all or you lose." Eventually they will have none or few left, and without power or running water, they won't be able to feed their people, much less

Or, you know, counter-battery systems and hundreds of patrolling drones. During Desert Storm, US batteries returned fire before enemy rounds even hit apogee.

What exactly is the difference between an internal PCIe slot and Oculink or Thunderbolt from an electrical and functional perspective?

Awesome idea: Texas can become four states, Northern California can become a state, Northwest Dakota, Northeast Dakota, and Upper New York can all become states too with equal Senate representation. Or did you perhaps have some gerrymanderi

That's wonderful: the option of a payment portal isn't the point. The purpose of snail mail is process can be served prior to seizing/applying a lien on the property when you don't pay (online or otherwise.)

Imagine if there were a universal means to attach external devices, perhaps one of these external devices could handle GPIO. You might even call it a "Universal Serial Bus."

Wow, I wasn't aware Samsung, Intel, SMSC were unable to produce "modern technology." Not everything needs to be on a 3nm TSMC process, believe it or not.

LLMs and radare2 absolutely breeze through undoing binary protection and virtualization, tracing execution flow, etc. Sans the ability to JIT, I don't see non-hardware-assisted binary attestation for Snap and others lasting very long i

Historical, physical, engineering reasons. Much of the world's mains-voltage electronics run at 240V (historical) and have PFC circuits (which are essentially just boost converters) that run at ~400V DC link voltages. 650V gives you en

Ukraine has no feasible means to actually act offensively, meanwhile, the United States is a nuclear weapons state. Pose a credible-enough threat and atomic deletion will ensue.

If Mexico as a nation state intentionally launched a single offensive rocket from Juarez to El Paso, we would just invade. Interceptors are an unnecessary expense in the ways that they have been used in the past 15 years.

They chose 800VDC because it's a convenient multiple that is the peak possible with a two-level 650V (probably GaN) FET arrangement.

So an automatic cheat code to win any and all conflicts is simply to put strategic assets in schools?

They weren't exclusively civilian targets, they were considered "mixed" targets. Hirohito's home wasn't considered strategically-important enough and therefore didn't make the cut. The sites in question were al

Secure Boot cuts both ways. The techniques anti-cheat software are allowed to use on Windows machines aren't even remotely allowed on macOS machines.
