That's what I do as well with tail lights of cars. There is a clear distinction between LED and normal lights: the LED's form a trail of dots.

I assume that all national security agencies monitor all traffic and can already see I only connect to Mullvad. And I'm sure they will have noticed I use it when going through the logs of several SaaS services and see that it is always

What is the threat model where correlating the payment with the account number is the main threat? If you can relate the account number to Mullvad traffic, then isn't it far easier to monitor the traffic and see what IP is connecting t

Just got mine a few days ago (EU based). Well built, works as promised. But I find that it mostly works for simple things like controlling lights, tv etc. Most interesting targets use proper encryption (mifare classic for example) so I had

You may be right about this. In some cases to turn an attack puzzle into a defense puzzle, I think it would be sufficient to use the same problem, but one turn earlier and switching sides. Then it may be possible to prevent the attack and t

The difference is that in an attack puzzle there is no way to prevent the attack, where in a defence puzzle there is, and you have to find out how. The outcome could be clearly defined, e.g. preventing the loss of a knight

Obviously I'm wrong but I'm not sure why. Light bouncing off of two mirrors can interfere constructively or destructively, depending on the phase difference. The phase difference from light bouncing off of two aligned mirrors is

> you can get interference between the paths Yes I understand that: the single photon interference in the double slit experiment. But what two paths could a photon take in a telescope allowing it to interfere with itself? The mirrors are

by A_No_Name_Mouse 5y ago
For interference the light needs to be able to take two separate paths with different length, which is the case in the oil film example or with two slits. In a telescope, each photon can only take a single path. So what would it interfere w

Wieckse witte is a Belgian white beer that tastes just as good with or without alcohol. For the past few years I've been drinking more of that than any other beer with alcohol. Friends of mine enjoy NA IPA, but that is to bitter to my

I wonder why they only show a picture of the non-contested negative test and not the positive one with the disputed URL so we can validate the evidence ourselves.

As far as I can tell, the schema does not allow combined information stating "prior illness" and "1 out of 2 jabs". So it does not even provide enough information for countries to decide if that level is acceptable, even

by A_No_Name_Mouse 5y ago
Does it reflect a state of prior illness where only 1 jab is required instead of 2? Or is the doses element adjusted to reflect that? Edit: could be in the top level "r" for Recovery group element Edit 2: no, the recovery element

Can anyone elaborate on what a company wide restore operation looks like in a big company? I worry about this because IT support teams tend to test restores per system. But what if it's thousands of systems going down at the same time?
