That genuinely sounds like he misunderstood the issue to be with prior untracked referrals rather than not paying out referrals properly attributed to him but "ineligible".

Seems like they just reflect all the UV from the bulb up and are counting on the ceiling not reflecting a harmful amount. With the right ceiling material that could actually be a pretty good idea.

That shouldn't be too crazy to accomplish with a bunch of tiny cable driven actuators hidden down in the torso to keep it compact. Funnily enough, a quick search on cable driven actuators for animatronics leads you to another paper by

It's not, if a kernel was built and signed that allowed unsigned modules to be loaded that key should be revoked. The way kernel module loading works with secure boot is that modules are signed via kmodsign. https://ubuntu.c
