Umm, so there are current news reports that poorer countries won't be able to get vaccinated until 2024. If the number of mutations is proportional to the number of people infected then even if the entire populations of wealthy countr

Supposedly the FBI seized all the videos at Epstein's residences. Why has there been no word of what is on them for so long?

A lot of church bells these days are not real bells, they are PA systems playing a recording of church bells. They are often programmable and wirelessly controlled, for example: https://www.brgproducts.com/carillon_pricing&

This is a known "feature" of some access points (AP), especially those used on big corporate WAN's. They want to keep the hardware costs low and software development/testing costs low, so instead of making sure the AP i

If you use a 31 band EQ on the sound going to the monitors isn't that going to alter the phase in each frequency band? So what you hear will have a different phase response than what is being recorded. Maybe an FIR EQ would be better

I've always wondered, what makes some DSP algorithms used in music better than others? The plate reverb on an early Zoom device is nowhere near as good as the plate reverb on an Eventide H7600. A Boss guitar pedal digital delay does

One workaround is to use Duckduckgo or Google to search Amazon; that tends to take you directly to the products you're looking for. One thing Amazon really needs is a way to search for a product with a specific size/weight/&l

No, I'm saying researchers ignored APT's for decades and now that they are available to everyone many current security processes and procedures are less effective, and yes possibly useless, _regardless_ of whether sophisticated th

But a company officer can just slip cash to a third party in another country to launch an attack. Maybe that's the explanation, that that kind of thing is difficult to attribute.

True. However, now that APT tools have been leaked to the world I think I can still argue that even layered defenses are no longer sufficient. I listened to security researchers say for years that there was no point in trying to address A
