cabirum··on Closing factories will not be enough to save Volkswagen
The western model is architected to exploit cheap labour from its colonies/vassals/"developing states". And to keep them from ever becoming developed. When these become unavailable, there is no plan B, you just go bankrupt and out of business.
cabirum··on Man Pages Maintenance Suspended
"no company has sponsored that work at all"

Is this specific work even discoverable for the companies to sponsor? There are many companies donating to the Linux Foundation, shouldn't it (also) distribute that money among volunteers?

Sad to watch ignorant agenda stand in the way of science.
cabirum··on There aren't that many uses for blockchains (2022)
Blockchain is best thought not as database, but a authenticated linked list data structure. Or, AES in CBC mode if you will.

Hope people realize Google will shutdown its domain service eventually
cabirum··on US Prepares Jamming Devices Targeting Russia, China Satellites
The incompetent US military should realize they have more satellites to lose in case of conflict. And both China and Russia have the means to disable them.
cabirum··on Speed limiters now mandatory in Europe on all new cars
I mean, the barrier to using a fake sign or using a marker to vandalize existing signs is much lower than projecting an image from a drone. But cool idea tho.

Hack the road by installing a fake 10 mph sign on a highway

cabirum··on Europe's new heavy-lift rocket, Ariane 6, made its inaugural flight
No mention of an engine failure and the last payload could not be delivered. It is now floating helplessly in orbit, effectively turned into space debris, endangering other projects.
cabirum··on Intel's lunar lake laptops won't let you upgrade your RAM. Here's why thats fine
And still no ECC? And if a memory module has a bad bit somewhere, I have to replace the whole motherboard?
cabirum··on A new Electrify America pilot will limit EVs to 85% state of charge
So. The infrastructure is simply not ready, as expected. Instead of building more chargers to fight deficit, they will limit users.
cabirum··on Linksys Velop routers send Wi-Fi passwords in plaintext to US servers
Asking this question since the first password manager

Summarize using AI?
cabirum··on A Bugatti car, a first lady and the fake stories aimed at Americans
In 2014, US and EU staged a coup, replacing the elected govt with their puppets. That is how it started.
cabirum··on Does eating at night increase mortality risk?
May the risks come from less sleep as a consequence of night eating and not from eating itself?
cabirum··on Figma will use your content to train its AI
"AI" word is unneeded. The company announced it will inspect and use your private content from a service you paid for.
cabirum··on EU threatens China EVs with tariffs of up to 38%
Just gave tech? Like, for free, for the sake of it? Not because the west exploits cheap labour to produce cheap goods for increased profits and to keep the high wages?

(Next you will argue that gives them jobs where they had none haha.)

cabirum··on EU threatens China EVs with tariffs of up to 38%
Can't compete no longer, can we?
cabirum··on FDA denies petition against use of phthalates in food packaging
I do think this is heavily overblown to get more research grants financed.
cabirum··on FDA denies petition against use of phthalates in food packaging
Did the petitioners try not to eat the packaging?
cabirum··on 88% of free Android VPNs found to leak
Sigh. What'd you expect from a free VPN? Bet every single one of them is taken over by some three letter agency.
cabirum··on How to copy a file from a 30-year-old laptop
Does it have a working C compiler? May have tried hacking together a data-over-audio app. Or quickly steam a bunch of qr codes.
cabirum··on Hacker confirms access through infostealer infection [withdrawn]
Yes, any country that is not your ally or vassal is an "organized crime ring". It's safer to be with oil and nukes, than without them you know.
cabirum··on Hacker confirms access through infostealer infection [withdrawn]
The screenshot shows the post in English. The website domain is Indian. The seller contact xmpp.cn in China. But no, we'll keep blaming Russia for everything.
cabirum··on I was laid off at 57. I've been rejected from hundreds of jobs
I think the point is to always have a 'plan B' for your income. Like, have an account to keep you afloat for a year or two; invest into some property to rent; start some business.
cabirum··on 300k airplanes in five years
> alcohol abuse, looting, rape and torture

Ah, western propaganda at its best

cabirum··on Cold brew coffee in 3 minutes using acoustic cavitation
Search for "portable ultrasonic washing machine" on Amazon/Aliexpress, looks like a hockey puck you drop into a bucket with water and clothes. Looks like the principle of operation is the same, just add a coffee filter.
