OTOH, it'd a fun science project just to built one, for maybe a different set of kids that operate the box. Just needs motivated teachers, if you ask me. I assume the mothbox is more of a high-school project, building one seems on that

If you're bilingual, it's often useful to read a wikipedia topic in more than one language, as the editorial slant may be different in different languages. Can at least confirm for German/English.

That's a pretty good post-mortem report. I hope they have implemented all the proposed process changes.

There seems to be a huge difference between spin-down while NAS is up vs shutting the whole NAS down and restart. When I start my NAS, it takes a bunch of time to be back up: it seems to do a lot of checking on/ syncing off the drives

If you are happy to live with B&W printing for your untraceable printing needs, maybe you can fill the yellow cartridge with clear ink (not sure if water is OK). But then, how do B&W laser printer allow for tracing ?

AFAIK, Napalm is illegal against a civilian population. IDK that it is illegal to use against military installations. Not that I think it is necessarily a smart move on the part of Ukraine, since Russia can play this game too.

That looks good. I'd probably prefer doing this at lower layers like pf, since I know how to reload those configs via cron, and since I want to avoid unwanted or malicious packets to even make it to the syslog code. I was just surprise

Did anyone here here set up a good rsyslogd configuration where the receiving syslog collector limits incoming logs to only known ddns machines ? I think I may be able to stitch something together with periodically reconfigured packet filte

My understanding is that they may not exactly be baseload, but will run only some of the time. Not ideal, but better than the worst case.

Since there is so much anxiety about mac-only -- could you provide a small python file to read out the raw photos on any platform ? It looks like you could just 'dd if=/dev/disk123 of=/tmp/bigrawfiles' and then

I agree; I'm thinking that's it's useful to be able to get frequent snapshots of the whole moon at this resolution (if you are interested in time lapse to track volcanic activity for instance). The satellite-based stitched ph

The vibe of this article reads much like that of those praising gold plated audio cables. Then again, growing up on amber CRT tubes, my sensory apparatus is no longer able to discern those higher echelons of perfection anyways ...

Seconded. Letters of Note (there are various printed volumes as well, e.g. "Speeches of Note", "Letters of Notes: Cats", ...) are a very fine collection of thoughts. One of my favorites is "Why explore space":

the high voltage lines are probably not causing wildfires; it's the low voltage wooden poles that do.

It's an interesting thought how much of the images created will be ground truth vs AI enhanced. Will I be killed by a drone because my haircut looks like Osama Bin Laden in a really blurry picture of 100 pixels ? Some of the advances o

Great question. I'd be also interested in good auditor firms. That's really what SOC is - sign off by auditors on criteria. SOC-1 is for an initial snapshot, SOC-2 for a 1 year interval or so, proving the controls work.

Watch the bbc documentary “the crusades” by Terry Jones. I think it is pretty well researched.

Well, everything is math , at some level. Supreme Court decisions might be. There are software packages used to day, using some "AI", to help judges determine the adequate level of punishments looking at circumstantial factors de

I recommend Roald Dahl's "Going Solo". The Audiobook narrated by Andrew Sachs is quite compelling. Also, maybe "The Napoleon of Notting Hill" by G.K. Chesterton. And of course most by P.G. Wodehouse.

Trurl's machine, indeed. It insisted that the volume of the unit cube and unit ball are both the same, and 1, in all dimensions, even though it knew the correct formula for the surface of the n-ball. Wen I pointed out that n=2 is a sim
