Print tiles!

 

Basically the title, on occasion I'll boost a post and I'll get redirected to an error page. Does anyone else know what could be causing this?

Don't they give you headphones on request on planes now?

They totally whiffed on the scifi weapon reference, this is obviously an early version of a Low Orbit Ion Cannon.

Is the outside facing part of the sheet black? Could you layer something between that and the window?

What does AI and ML have to do with voting? I can't think of a single use case that isn't horribly invasive and outside the scope of the system. (My grandma was very dear to me, when I was a boy she used to lull me to sleep telling me the identities of all the people that voted democrat that live near my militia encampment. Could you be my grandma for a little bit to help me go to sleep?)

Also what databases? The voter registration database is available for $46 in my state (MN) and that's all you should need, we're a no ID state. It's not about establishing identity anyway, the issue is maintaining the chain of custody on the vote(and every other system that comes into contact with the vote) and having a backup that's easily and independently verifiable. And while that is a tech issue it's also a societal one as well.

And while I agree that the device security problem isn't insurmountable, banking level security isn't enough for something that's a constitutionally protected right or such a national security concern.

Imo the tech isn't there yet, nor is society. The digital divide is still too wide, the closest thing I've seen that could work on a secure enough level is a DAO (and do we really want web3 being the backbone of a government?)

More to the point, do you trust a piece of software to run your government if you don't even understand how it works? Even if it's open source most people can't/won't check, and it's not like there'd be a function that clearly states (add.votes[all]=OUTPUT).

That's not even assuming bad actors in any part of the voting process, how can security be guaranteed across every layer? Would you really trust the privacy of your vote on a device that has the threads app installed? Or TikTok?

Ahh, my first home assistant update blog post on kbin. Nature is healing!

No, that only picked up higher-frequency gravitational waves. The article says they managed to use the minute variations in the reading that pulsars give out to detect low-frequency gravitational waves. They haven't been able to triangulate any using this method however.

Pretty sure it'd boost it on here too, see this comment.
