Bioweapons are essentially a solved problem already, “AI” or not. In the mid 20th century the USSR had enough weapons manufacturing capability through Biopreparat to kill every human on the planet in less than 30 days. In the 1920s France had enough poison gasses to kill every inhabitant of Europe at the time. America and Russia each still have enough thermonuclear warheads to kill 95% of the earth’s population in under 30 minutes. None of these are new technologies, literally all of this technology is 50-75 years old and hasn’t developed much since because you can’t do any better than “total annihilation”.

The modern stuff uses signed bootloaders, ie secureboot. Afaik there’s no custom OS’s for C9k or Nexus gear.
SPAN port on the switch, send it all into a server running Suricata which can analyze, classify, and log all the traffic. Don’t run it in IPS mode online unless you’re willing to suffer a little…
Device sync to nextcloud -> rsync data & db onto NAS -> nightly backup to rsync.net and quarterly offsite/offline HDD swaps.
I also copy Zoneminder recordings, configs, some server logs, and my main machine’s ~/ onto the NAS.
The offsite HDD is just a bog standard USB 4TB drive with one big LUKS2 volume on it.
It’s all relatively simple. It’s easy to complicate your backups to the point where you rely on Veeam checkpointing your ESXI disks and replicating incrementals to another device that puts them all back together… but it’s much better to have a system that’s simple and just works.
My understanding was that it was intended as an “emergency brake” - a circuit breaker that could be tripped in an urgent situation, at the cost of the user’s career. But, that requires a politically literate population that would discourage its use.
So, instead we have strongman premiers using it as a hammer to point their profoundly unpopular policies through, and an apathetic and disengaged voter base willing to look the other way.
I see it as part of the broader erosion of the “checks and balances” we were assured would prevent this type of creeping dismantling of democracy.
I wonder how many of Apple’s carbon offsets burned up in Canada this summer. And of those left, how many will burn next year.
Yes, it’s an El Nino year which will push the global average up a little more than normal, but this really is the new normal. Since the new maritime fuel regulations to reduce sulphur dioxide came into effect about three years ago, the stratospheric aerosol concentration has reduced to the point that its cooling effect is waning. There’s nothing holding back climate change now, and we’re getting the full effect like never before. Of course, there will still be some variation in the annual mean temperature, but the line is going up from here on out.
Yeah, this has nothing to do with encryption, it’s because they refuse to have a support division that would be able to get people back into their accounts.
I always aim to put away $500/month into the TFSA because that gets you close to the $6k/year contribution limit.
He’s not regretting what he did, he’s regretting that he botched it and got arrested.
"There was a white male, camo vest, red hat, and white t-shirt walking with a possible long gun down Duss Avenue,"
Can you think of any “red hat” that would be associated with people who would want to do a mass shooting at a black church?
Not to mention the manifesto they found at his house. This guy needs to be locked up.
I’ll never participate in one of the “master race” communities because of the chronically icky association with fash shit. I get it, it’s an old reddit-ey joke from like 2011, but it’s undeniable that the name has a very strong undertone of white supremacy.
Moving away from the incumbent social networks is our chance to create a new culture without that baggage.
