Personally I think a hardware switch that disabled the mic and camera is the best route. Engineers would have to be honest in actually connecting the switch directly to the camera rather than resorting to some firmware tom-foolery. Then you

None of the proposed solutions do anything to actually stop the camera from taking a picture of you. Sure, you'll see the indicator light up for 3 seconds. But the attacker still got what they needed. Camera covers have nothing to do w

My only concern with this, is he assumes that all that work is going to take an extremely long time and doesn't even consider the fact that it might take significantly less time than he proposes. He acknowledges this but doesn't a

I think it's funny that Forbes actually used a Twitter post of a screenshot of a Reddit thread. That is just lazy reporting. Additionally, while I don't use Tik Tok nor do I trust it, I don't find anything overtly scary about

What could Stallman possibly do to Microsoft that he hasn't been doing for his entire life? [1] [2] He lives and breathes free software and arguably coined the term. If Microsoft deems Stallman a threat after 30 years of being heckled

I'm just now falling down this rabbit hole of working with frame buffers as a result of this project and now I'm curious. Did you develop your own window manager? This is really fascinating stuff and makes it really simple to crea

The shareholders that matter are all on the same team. There's no way other shareholders would have let Icahn direct $57m from their collective pocket to his own 3rd party businesses unless they were getting a cut.

So the argument against UBI is that capitalists are greedy? But that is the problem UBI is supposed to solve. You have a strawman situation because it comes from the obvious side of the aisle who doesn't want UBI, but ignores the fact

Companies who use the government to subsidize their pay in this manner should be taxed into oblivion. Same with employers who keep employees in the safety net to cut costs. And honestly if a company feels the need to cut the salary of a $30

While that is true, I've worked in manufacturing environments with high tech equipment. This manufacturing equipment is so sensitive it gets covered with tarp during dog-and-pony shows. We are using equipment and techniques in the USA

SIMD works great for doing the same thing to multiple pieces of data, but it doesn't do the scaling up that I described. I'm no chip engineer, so maybe what I'm envisioning isn't possible. In essence, instead of making 4

I always thought that a real time scalable architecture would be beneficial. It's refreshing to see someone working on it, and exciting to see that it's nVidia. I always pictured a CPU with variable bit-width. Like a 256-bit ALU t

It does sound like a very intriguing idea, and one that I believe requires some research. However, in practice I think this would be equivilent to towing a small tanker trailer full of chemicals or gasoline. It would require plaques indicat

Yes and no. You can still buy a NiMH battery and a silver can brushed 540 motor if you want too. The price on that stuff has come down significantly. It's the LiPo batteries and brushless motors that cost all the money these days. Then

Technically you can open that logfile in Notepad and Ctrl+F the thing. If I was the judge and you pulled that argument someone at your agency would now be using that method instead of "researching" a grep query.

New York already has an underground steam system. They're constantly digging that up for maintenance. While they're in there maybe this could be installed.
