No action? There's been plenty of laws written and even passed in red states to address these complaints. https://www.npr.org/2022/05/23/1100831545/appeals-court-flor... https://www.texas

That's a super broad brush. Throwing in the "exactly" makes this particularly overbroad. It's perfectly OK to think that people with certain views are intolerable and that isn't some path to fascism. There are peopl

An LCD monitor that buffers frames? That would be really bad. The typically HDMI receiver chip does the lazy thing. Which is simply to receive pixels on one end, and transmit them out the other at the same rate that it receives them at. No

I'm really struggling to understand why a monitor would be designed this way. It's already receiving a pixel clock and all the pixels, horizontal fields, and entire frames at 59.95Hz. There's absolutely no need for the monito

Locking down user terminals is one part of starlink security. Breaking that is a huge accomplishment. It appears that the other layers still prevent this from being a full blown attack, but that may just be a matter of time.

I appreciate your response, but it's impossible for me to imagine programming an AI simulation capable of feeling the perception of red. The idea that I can't imagine doing these things is because of a shortcoming in my knowledge.
