Who cares what ChatGPT says? You can get it to say literally anything.

The tongue test works great. Be warned, though, that a full battery will make your tongue go numb. It’ll feel like you have a big hole in the middle. Try it.

I had to squeeze so hard it hurt my fingers. I see no loss here.

No. This exploit worked because the medium is read-write. Once a disc is finalized, it cannot be written to. You can’t exfiltrate data via the CD.

I’m sure there’s some modified CD burner out there that can write to a finalized disc, but this would only work where the air-gapped machine supports it, and also even has a drive that can write.

That may not be their policy, but it appears that’s their practice.

The one in the post? I think that’s from the Internet Archive themselves.

Most attacks aren’t targeted. They hit anyone they can.

2000 is a huge omission from that list. Windows 2000 on the NT kernel is really what solidified modern Windows.

Is that because you also don’t know any physics Nobels off the top of your head?

If they award a Nobel for materials science, this should win.

If we investigated everyone with poor impulse control, we’d be investigating 80% of the world.

It’s true, but in terms of publicity, not mere image capture.

Buy an old used one off ebay or something, then. By the time they go so far out of support they stop working, I’m sure there’ll be a replacement.

You have it backwards. They’re putting third party stores on the Play store.

I’ve been using a Chromecast for years. I cast whatever I want from my phone. It plays media and that’s it.

Nothing different. You download the F-Droid APK and install it just like you do today.

Laptops with Ethernet are still pretty common. I just bought one recently. At work, we buy a lot of them. But I don’t think smartphones ever had integrated wired networking.

But that aside, what you’re describing is already happening. Wireless network deployments are much, much cheaper than running wire to each building. In semi-rural areas, WiSPs are pretty common. And 5G for home Internet access is pretty common in high-coverage areas. And as time goes on, the ISP-provided equipment is more locked down.

But I don’t think those things are related.

Funny enough, that’s exactly what the article says.

That assumes the court finds that enforceable. Usually they do, but a few times recently, they’ve said it’s not.

I don’t see anything in the article suggesting it’s particularly dangerous, only that it’s very expensive to fix, and in a collision will probably cause significant damage to the other vehicle (though that doesn’t mean it’ll necessarily cause injury).

The US doesn’t exactly approve or deny vehicles in general; any vehicle that conforms to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards can be sold, as far as I know. And I don’t see any section that covers safety of the other party in a collision, unfortunately. Maybe write your reps and suggest they add one.
