The excuse for pulling this guy, and everyone in this companies security clearance is because he didn’t find evidence the 2020 election was stolen?
Security clearances aren’t cheap. Someone in the press should be asking the trump regime how this helps America.
Imagine not being aware how pathetic you look when someone bribes you. What’s that dinner like? Rich people always worry about their status. Who’s more important, who has the most money? Trump sitting down to dicuss this for a million dollars. A million dollars is so cheap to them. They must be laughing on the way home at how easy it is to manipulate him.
These schools have huge endowments that can fund their entire operation. Cancelling a popular class because it can’t get funding is just a smokescreen for school politics. Someone wants to take things in a different direction.
It seems obvious in hindsight. Sheet metal doors will crumple in a way that can’t be opened, trapping occupants. The fire doesn’t need to start in the relatively safe and armored battery system. It could be pinched wiring causing a short that ignites plastic interiors, or a fire from another vehicle spreading to the cybertruck.
I’m sure someone mentioned all this to them during design.
The esp32 supports efuses that can be used to require a signed binary to boot. So they could lock their hardware to only work with their binary. Source code wouldn’t matter.
Of course if the source is open you can buy and put together your own hardware and then put their code on it.
I’m not advocating what they’re doing. Rent seeking is rent seeking even if they need to recoup development costs. I’d rather pay for open hardware and software with no monthly fee.
I realized a while back that social media is trying to radicalize everyone and it might not even be entirely the oligarchs that control its fault.
The algorithm was written with one thing in mind: maximizing engagement time. The longer you stay on the page, the more ads you watch, the more money they make.
This is pervasive and even if educated adults tune it out, there is always children, who get Mr. Beast and thousands of others trying to trick them into like, subscribe and follow.
This is something governments should be looking at how to control. Propaganda created for the sole purpose of making money is still propaganda. I think at this point that sites feeding content that use an algorithm to personalize feeds for each user are all compromised.
Besides all the other arguments, fingerprints aren’t like the movies. You need a reasonably flat surface to get a fingerprint from.
Getting a fingerprint from a house or a car to prove that someone was there at some point, any time in the past, is possible. Getting a fingerprint from a plastic baggy to prove someone held it would be much harder.
The distortions would make it extremely hard to match against a database. If they compare it to you then it might show a match, so if you’re a suspect they might make a direct comparison. If they compare it to the cop? Remember the cop is innocent until proven guilty, so they can’t compel them to give fingerprints for comparison. Yes, they could be in a database, but remember the distortion makes it hard to automatically find this.
Any lab work has a cost, and police are lazy. They aren’t going to spend time or money trying to solve a case. They go with best effort.
Is the list if 40k apps public? Can someone write an app that checks to see if any of them are installed on a phone?
What if the shotgun makes a noise you don’t recognize? Hit it with the toaster?
I think its dell. Not much to go on, but Texas, global manufacturing and 20yrs seem like good clues.
Imagine a company with the power to break half the worlds computers with a business decision.
Why is this article an ad for the course rather than a condemnation?
