They don't lack expertise but they will be lacking money and access to some specialised components and assemblies in the future. That said I doubt they're going to abandon their space program. I guess their launch platforms will r

Could it be that it was detected yet ignored as to render the Russian air defence pentest useless?

I'm trying to think of something constructive to say, but all I can give is disappointed "wow...". We truly live in a post-sarcasm world. Not even the fucking onion could make this shit up. Perhaps next week will be followed

Yeah, I hate the clickbaity choice of putting this information near the end of the article. This is bbc, I expect better.

How come I have not seen a single article making the point that Russians don't want to expose their more advanced aircraft and AA systems to AWACS and EW analysis? Surely it would be a great time to find their vulnerabilities.

Yeah, it was a massive, massive disaster. The expenses associated with the new (hopefully) cold war will make europe weak and irrelevant on the global stage. That includes Russia. And what was this all for?

The thing is, for most people a glossy monitor with an AR coating is a good compromise, since reflections are a lot more distracting than a slightly matte finish. For a studio monitor this isn't a consideration, but in general the fini

I've been planning to deploy LED flashlights in deep sea for a while, I hope our goals don't interfere.

Also depending on the scale, seismic surveys are seriously affected by nearby roads and construction, where "nearby" can mean several km in some cases.

Russia lost access to half a trillion in foreign assets but so did foreign owners of Russian assets.

From a simpler pov, assuming $50/MWh, biking super hard for 1 hour(100W) produces $0.005 of electricity. Biking super hard for 16 hours a day for an entire year would produce $29 of electricity (assuming 100% efficiency in the generato

The free and open global communications network we enjoyed is officially being terminated. It was nice that it existed for a while.

>But I guess they know better about reliability of their particular solution. I wouldn't be as sure as you are.

Exactly. Its horrifying that this move wasn't publicly debated to the extend that it should.

Thinking your child is too smart to ingest toxic materials or start a fire is naive. Of all the weird things liberals believe, being against safety regulations for consumer products never ceases to amaze me.

Until you get killed by a hacker, or your device manufacturer silently changes camera firmware to include shitty AI updates to your computational photography device and breaks the app etc. I'll buy the actual medical device, thank you.

Really unlikely. What's realistically possible though is to turn speakers into microphones through firmware or software, depending on your audio card. You're welcome for having yet another thing to be paranoid about.

Not a word about the safety of having a massive co2 laser fire in the open though?

What happened to the idea of using physical OTP generators? Or smart cards? Why can't we have a proper, democratic and auditable system of electronic authentication in almost any government? The UK also partners with Android and iOS

It could be just a high contrast photograph. I know that at some point they used to wait for all the vectors to be drawn on a CRT with a "permanent"-resettable phosphor and then take a photo with everything on it, clear the screen

Yeah that's one hell of a Rubik's cube. OP should add a "shuffle" button and make a game where you win if you return to the original (or a specific) shape within some error.
