According to this [0] the number of warheads as of 2020 is 3750 which does kind of qualify as "thousands upon thousands". Edit: I don't think it matters if "only" 400 are land-based, does it? it's still "t

Do you know the name of the company that produces the EUV machine? is it ASML? It is my understanding that only ASML had cracked the EUV litography, but if there's another company out there, that would be an interesting development to

The problem is not a technologic one, it's societal. It doesn't matter if you give a piece of the key to the ACLU, one to the EFF or whatever other entities one might think as "impartial" or "without conflict of int

In my case, I own a VW SUV and to my surprise when I go nearby a particular antenna, if I have my Android phone connected it crashes the whole infotainment system, and I can't do anything with it unless I turn the car off for several m

Not sure if it's my browser config, but I saw all these CTAs I mentioned, which I find absurd. I really think the article was relatively interesting, enough for me to consider other articles if it weren't for the amount of annoyin

Just to chime in, I started reading the article due to this comment, as I wanted to check the style of the writing, but the amount of in-your-face insistence to subscribe to yet another newsletter just put me off entirely. There was a CTA r

The article mentions "waves in the ionosphere", not gravitational waves.

It says they have specialized hardware so I imagine they use some ultra-low power chips and perhaps even a small extra battery?

Right, but still doesn't explain why 4 billions instead of 1 or 10. I think the OP was expecting something like "we value the company at 8 billions because reasons, so we want to fund for half of it" or something like that.

That doesn't explain anything though.

That definitely makes sense. However I do have heard it in the context of "hey, enjoy life more!". Which I agree with but it's also a reality that you need to think about your future/retirement and it's a hard balan

Along those lines, one of the things that I still struggle with after 20+ years of working, is squaring this feeling of not working enough/earn enough money to have a comfortable retirement, while at the same time trying to live my lif

That seems ripe for (more) abuse. Not really sure who comes up with these schemes but... doesn't sound well thought out.

That sounds... weird? Not saying it doesn't happen, but if this is indeed the case, what is preventing the same scammer from essentially registering all still-unregistered UPC codes to do something akin to domain squatting? (I am not f

I use Glasswire (Android) and block apps from accesing the internet, when not using them (e.g. Uber). It's a bit of pain to turn it on before use, and off again afterwards, but I've realized it's much less stressful than havi

If you use/consume 4 of anything and 3 of those things are a bad experience, I think it's reasonable to have a bad opinion of said thing. Imagine buying 4 Cokes in you life and 3 of them being flat. Most people would probably cons

Out of curiosity, what can you do with data abour Russia's farm yields? Probably a lot, but besides maybe predicting price changes of the crop, I can't think of much (I guess that's why I'm not a gov analyst).

Two things I was not expecting from this video: - the amount of people that just keeps going at _full speed_ (even after violent shaking and noise) - how much it would make me laugh. For some reason the absurdity of it all just cracked me u

Usually, when you inconveniece people with power, they tend to use that power against you. If you did this without raising attention, you could get away with it I would imagine, but if it starts to become "a thing" and cops/p

Ah, nuking. That brings back memories. I remember you had to use NukeNabber to block attacks to TCP port 139 IIRC.
