  • More like: That could be useful, just not for (perhaps many) drones.

    1km isn't that far - the drones that were used for surveillance of Minneapolis protests in 2020 were around 6km up.

    If they needed to get close for some reason, would a 1km deterrent be countered enough by approaching from directly above and using gravity for the last km?

  • Yep, one of those things the IT department takes care of and most other people just need to know to keep their devices updated.

  • Regular chalk is calcium carbonate. Crayola's website says their sidewalk chalk uses calcium sulfate (gypsum as an ingredient in plaster of paris).

    So they're both calcium salts.

  • This is an absolutely braindead lazy take.

    The same professional journalists who've worked at these big media corporations have used the substack platform to open up sites in droves so they can focus on more niche topics, or just escape the censorship of owners and advertisers.

    If you think that legitimate news can only come from a company owned by billionaires, then you're wrong.

  • Trump officials shared military plans on a private app — 10 years after uproar over Hillary Clinton’s private server

  • Are you suggesting they didn't know Signal wasn't an approved platform for sensitive government communication and willfully used it anyway?

  • That's literally the defining feature of asymmetric cryptography. There are many explanations of how it works which you can easily find. One example is the Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography

    If you educate yourself and are still confused, you should probably just accept the fact that even though you can't understand the specifics, information encoded with the public key cannot be decoded with the same public key.

  • In my opinion the most relevant commonality is the hypocrisy of all the involved parties. Hillary had sent out a notice to the entire State Department saying to only use official communication platforms, and then did the opposite as if she thinks she's above the rules.

    Then these Republicans who condemned the actions also used a non-official platform.

  • I helped do the easy scenario at large scale in a fortune 50 several years ago after the vendor thought they could get greedy on the support contract renewal. Only required small changes to a few files and packages.

  • OpenAI declares AI race “over” if training on copyrighted works isn’t fair use

    Jump

  • Copyright does not give the holder control over every "use", especially something as vague as "using it to undermine their skillset".

    Copyright gives the rights holder a limited monopoly on three activities: to make and sell copies of their works, to create derivative works, and to perform or display their works publicly.

    Not all uses involve making a copy, derivative, or performance.

  • What's stopping you from writing your Rust like this?

  • It's poor for the second, since the result is a gas (hard to store long term). We would want it as a solid or liquid product, which this doesn't do.

    Why wouldn't the device include or feed a compressor to liquidize the CO2? It takes just a little over 5 atm of pressure which is trivial.

  • Agreed (mostly).

    Just because something isn't illegal, that doesn't make it morally right. The inverse also applies.

    Even though the First Amendment prohibits government suppression of speech, it doesn't mean that the expression is immune to consequences from society including non-governmental suppression.

    I think the "no arrests were made" observation was meant in relation to your last point, not the first at all.
