That is a long video, is the paper published somewhere?

Im willing to accept that you can statistically "watermark" the text, but I'm not convinced that it would be tamper resistant, which is a large part of what makes a watermark useful. If it can't survive an idiot with a thesaurus, its probably not gonna be terribly useful.

The arstechnica article speculated it was more of a pattern of words thing.

I think it is lies, and doesn't exist or work anywhere near as good as they claim. Or, its incredibly easy to bypass.

I thought that was the case tbh, has it changed?

Edit: is-even depends on is-odd.

Is-even and is-odd on npm.

For a while, openssl was maintained by 1 or 2 people.

I have a travel router as well, I just prefer to keep the SSIDs different. It is definitely paranoia, but if someone sees your travel router at a hotel, they know your not home, and your home can be found on wigle.net.

Its not that bad to reset the Chromecast, and I do it infrequently, so I'm happy with that.

79ppb is 79 micrograms per kilo. (Someone check my math).

No alterations in hematological parameters (complete blood count and routine chemistries) were observed in a group of nine male subjects who consumed once a day for 14 consecutive days a solution of potassium perchlorate that provided 10 mg of perchlorate/day (Lawrence et al. 2000).

Those volunteers had 37x more exposure with no impact.

It seems like lots of these studies are coming out as an easy way to get published. Just pick a chemical, find it in groceries/chocolate/tampons and get instantly published and publicised. The "rocket fuel" angle is a nice touch, its a chemical that is naturally found in the water supplies of Chile:

Hematological parameters were evaluated in an epidemiological study of school-age children from three cities with different concentrations of perchlorate in drinking water in northern Chile (Crump et al. 2000)

I take my Chromecast on holiday, you basically have to factory reset it every time to change network. But my recollection is that you've always had to do that.

Remind me, what app did it use before? I have had Chromecast since gen 1, can't remember any other app, but that's probably my memory failing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

I did the exact same thing. Its such a stupid step backwards in functionality.

Chromecast with Google TV made the "simple" casting worse for some apps like Netflix. Instead of it casting directly, it would spawn the Netflix app and make you use the remote to reselect the show you wanted to see.
