Good point. The influence of social media really can't be understated, trolling is really easy today. Especially if you build upon other material or facts that support your claim (I guess that's what happened here)

True, but don't forget that large scale events also would occur without human intervention. It cant be denied that our actions are the cause for a lot of changes, but a volcano or an earthquake are just natural occurences. We live on a

yeah I don't know what to think of it. A search turns up a lot of news articles, all posted within that time range, and it doesn't look like a fake at second glance. But who knows.

I Ctrl+F'ed for "counter weight" but it does not appear anywhere here or in one of the mentioned articles. Front loaders are harder to build, they have to use a huge counter weight due to the nature of the horizontal drum. Th

Hardware development requires a lot of spare resources, it doesn't pair well with startups. The development cycles are much less predictable compared to software, you never know how many prototypes you have to burn through until you r

Isn't it more appropriate to say that Verilog is weird because of hardware? Once you go down to the lower levels you enter another realm that requires a completely different way of thinking. HW dev is not comparable to software in any

I can't imagine that much will change even if they stopped enforcing the Reinheitsgebot all together. Most breweries will probably just continue the way they always did and try out some new products in addition to that. If there is one

Now i'm really curious if they calculate the prices based on the files they encrypt. Do you know if it was some kind of spear phishing attack or just a regular ransomware variant? Any sources? thx!

The ransomware scheme only works because the users actually get their files back and the prices are pretty reasonable for many victims. The perpetrators spend a lot of time on the ransomware and its backend. The better it works works, the m
