I love how it has one of those big honking emergency stop buttons. Like, 2020 may indeed be a dumpster fire, but at least we can be confident that this particular installation is going to be a relatively safe, controlled dumpster fire.

We should assume that this ship has already sailed for user-hostile applications and devices, and start working on mitigations. i.e. Smart TVs will do this to get around pi-hole style ad blocking.

PRC can either fire and also lose a few cities, or not fire and be ignored. MAD works because everyone knows that starting or joining a nuclear firefight is literally suicide. What would compel them to fire if they're clearly not being

No, it's not. These are specialized RF mosfets that cost hundreds of dollars a piece, and you currently need at least four to come close to the output power of a weak consumer microwave. The power supply and control and protection circ
