Reply With QuoteI wager that the Cybertruck sucking is not that much of a news:
I don't know much about trucks or cars in general, but looks like the tech bro motto of "move fast and break things" might not be the best approach when designing a vehicle.

Dunno if this is a right place or not to drop this paper
i remember reading 802.11bf paper around oct/nov 2022. I feel obliged to share this. We already have UWB Radar for human presence detection and possibility of sensing something behind wall by using mmWaves. This is beyond crazy.
Slightly related : They usher in 802.11az development as well

I won't upgrade to this technology and I'm looking for a way to opt-out. I will keep rocking my Asus 802.11AC/Linksys WRT1900AC with custom firmware. Might switch to ubiquiti/aruba AP someday

to my surprise, BLE can be a target of wardriving as well
Besides all of that, I also heard Google uses the wifi SSID to point your real place, the '_nomap' strings appended on SSID is useful to opt-out from google location service , '_optout' strings is useful to opt-out microsoft location service
I'm still seeing if there are any changes regarding to product quality of linksys after being acquired by Belkin and after being acquired by Foxconn. The legendary WRT54G/WAP54G was the sexiest wireless router ever existed in 2000s.
The Internet Archive got taken down in a DDOS attack by Pro palestinian hackers
In posts on X from October 9, SN_BlackMeta stated: "The Internet archive has and is suffering from a devastating attack. We have been launching several highly successful attacks for five long hours and, to this moment, all their systems are completely down."
The account added, " "second round | New attack. 09/10/2024 Duration 6 hours," linking to a series of status reports on check-host.net, showing multiple connection timeouts for the Internet Archive.
A community note attached to this post on X read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. This group claims they took down the Internet Archive because it "belongs to the USA ... who support Israel" which is not true. The Archive is not U.S. government, it is a nonprofit that includes many resources about Palestine, which we can't now access because of this attack."
This is equal to the burning of Library Of Alexandria. I have a heap of old documents (technical manual books, magazines, books that are no longer published, etc.) collection available in there both in postscript format, documents that now support ocr format and other pdf files. Meanwhile I'm still halfway learning & doing what /r/datahoarder community does and I haven't saved all those interesting documents. Screw this attack.Originally Posted by Azaran
Now that Google has removed their cachedview feature, it justs getting worse. I need wayback machine. There are tons of technical blogs that are no longer indexed by Google and have disappeared from the surface of the internet.
What will be their next target ? Project Guttenberg ? why would they attack websites like IA and alike...
I appreciate archivists who fight bitrot/silent data corruption

Why don't they just give it up, already.Cuba's electric grid collapses once again while millions remain in the dark
The entire island was initially left without power on Friday when its main power plant failed impacting 10 million people.
Communism is dead. Even China communism is capitalist now.
The Onion has apparently won the auction bid for Infowars:

https://apnews.com/article/alex-jone...628686c8b8dd4a
“Our goal in a couple of years is for people to think of Infowars as the funniest and dumbest website that exists,” Ben Collins, the Onion’s CEO, told The Associated Press. “It was previously the dumbest website that exists.”

It's being challenged. From what I read, the Onion wasn't the highest bidder, but the Sandy Hook families were willing to forgo some of the settlement as part of the Onion offer to make it a better deal. The only other bid was from one of Jones' businesses. The first round was blind bids. The auctioneer had the option of conducting a second round of bidding but did not. They're challenging the result because he didn't.
I love that the Onion did this. Even if Jones ends up getting the site back, at least he and his investors had to pay some serious money for it.
Speaking of AI and kidnapping....
'Come home with me': Tiny robot has emotional conversation with 12 bigger robots before 'kidnapping' them
In a strange and unsettling incident that has both fascinated and alarmed the internet, a small, AI-powered robot from Hangzhou managed to "kidnap" 12 larger robots from a showroom of a Shanghai robotics company. According to OddityCentral, the event, captured on CCTV footage, has sparked widespread debate and concern over the potential risks of advanced artificial intelligence (AI).

No one here was speaking of AI and kidnapping though. The sources for that article are almost all from Indian sites, and conveniently all of them fail to name the company that created the robot(s). While the security loophole being exploited could be real, the 'dialogue' is ludicrous, unnecessary, and obviously made for people watching it. Also cute is the banging on the 'AI' wardrum at the end, like these robots actually have AI or something.
