Drugs are great, you take them too most like (caffeine, ethanol, theanine etc). It’s the power that fucked that shit head up.

Loads of people take ketamine and just like appreciate jazz or some other banal shit.

Thanks, that’s a lot to think about. We currently use an oled computer monitor as a TV (hooked up to a pi) and it’s beautiful but there are limits on screen size and it’s crazy expensive (you’re paying for stupid fast refresh rates and the Gamer™ markup)

our house is very bright during the day, lots of glass in sunny Australia, so it’s probably not a great candidate for a projector generally but it does have me thinking about one in the bedroom for late night movies. Probably a lot cheaper and neater than another absurd monitor.

How dark do rooms need to be for them to work? Are there issues with shared spaces where someone might want a well lit workspace?

you’re in a mood to argue, I’m not. Sorry you’re racist or whatever, your trolling would work better if you pretended to read what people wrote.

It’s just accurate?

The Mabo decision, while significant, is not what we’re talking about here and is a bad faith misdirection.

When we compare the political situation of colonised peoples there is an enormous difference in political power and concessions granted between those who killed lots of colonisers vs those who did not. Comparisons abound from NZ, to Ireland and everything between going eastward.

Voting no to this is simply reaffirming the status quo that violence is the only way foe minorities to gain a seat at the table.

This is an unprecedented, earnest, consensus, peaceful approach to a way forward. A way without killing.

Slapping it back out of fear is a vote in favour of violence, for that is the only other way indigenous people have gained political power in colonial nations.

Just be kind, choose to be kind. Please.

Not just the USA. Here in Australia (which amusingly was seen as a weird totalitarian state in the usa?) our politicians dragged their feet, encouraged people to go out to large events, discouraged masks, insisted schools stay open because “children couldn’t spread it” amongst other things.

Eventually we had action but it is still like the leading cause of death AFAIK so uhhh good job I suppose.

No the reviewing is done by other scientists for free. It’s potentially a bit webhosting etc but journals also take advertisements.

The entire industry is a cruel joke.

Most researchers are happy to email you a digital copy which they retain rights over if you ask though :)

I admit to being out of the game for a while but how common is RAM encryption?

wouldn’t the overhead violate half the point of RAM?

Sure of course of course but umm have you seen software?

There are still windows xp computers on the internet.

It’s not insurmountable, and of course I have no idea if/how this will roll out.

Just it seems to mess with a rather deep assumption we have about how computers operate when we develop software and threat models.

Maybe, it depends how it works.

Memory is often unencrypted and/or contains encryption keys. Many programs rely on the assumption that it’s cleared on powerdown for security.

Depending on how this memory enters the long term state it seems that a lot of legacy software might become vulnerable to a really simple attack.

Pulling the plug might no longer be something that forces someone to engage in rubber hose analysis.

This sounds like a giant security risk?
