Few are as brave.

Bluetooth and the 2.4 GHz ISM band is not electricity and is highly resilient to moderate noise over short distances. Problems are usually caused by hardware related issues.

Obviously, more plants are needed to combat the destructive USB industry.

The paper itself, which is linked in the BBC article, is quite a read too Original Article

Thanks for the suggestion, I started looking into LaTeX during my studies but never went through with learning it. Others have suggested Scribus, is there a reason why you might opt for LaTeX over that for this case?

DigiKam and it’s associated plugins are what I use to sort, manage and store photos. It does have facial recognition option too, but I have not used it until now.

I noticed that as part of the LaTeX description, thanks for confirming! I will take a look at scribus.

I sat with a group of friends the other day and a number of them shared stories about a time when they intended to take their lives.

I was incredibly glad all of them were there, and all the more grateful after that chat. Please seek any help you can, even if it’s to give those cats a midnight walking buddy.

You need an incredibly robust quality management system to even achieve certification (allowing you to place on the market) when creating systems which include life support function, or functions which potentially could kill a user. All potential changes both within and outside of the manufacturers’ control MUST be assessed and constantly monitored so such issues CANNOT arise.

No one should be able to legally place an unsafe app on the market, or legally perform changes to the app without the necessary checks and balances.

Medical device approvals in most countries are definitely not the wild west. Although they are not perfect.

Do you mean the American government? Because I’m pretty sure that single mum of 3 kids in North Carolina doesn’t care about oppressing anyone.

Also, politicians are not “normal humans” and normal politicians are exactly like that when they get power, they want to hold onto the power that they have with every ounce of energy and means available.

The list of wars involving any of the major nations is not short and their playing the victim in each of those only goes so far, so everyone is capable of creating genocidal monsters.

I am not a liberal. We are all “propagandized”. China intimidates it’s dissidents in other countries. The US hunts its dissidents also all over the world. Russia murders it’s turned spies wherever they are.

The only losers in this game are us.

I haven’t read a take this ignorant in a long time. The data is worth too much on a global scale for any country to not be intensely spying both internally and externally. Again, there is no “nice” player on the global field and the only people that consistently lose are we, the citizens.

The fact you believe that these countries hack, but don’t “play dirty” is absolutely bananas.

I think people will ignore this because it is on RT before even seeing that it involves Tucker Carlson.

I would be surprised if any country with a functioning spy agency doesn’t try and put as many back doors into software as possible. Every single person on this planet should be pissed at the corruption of F/OSS and it’s modules (if as widespread as suspected)… this is not an east vs west issue.

A man named Michel Thomas created a series of audio lessons to teach a number of languages, including German. He does it in a simulated classroom type of environment where one “student” makes common mistakes and he corrects them, so you get to hear someone else make the mistake first.

He also teaches you the necessary words to enable you to start understanding others speaking he language quickly. I found combining this with Duolingo and the super cheesy Extr@s TV series (once you have the basics) allowed me to go from 0 to speaking to people within 6 weeks and understanding 95% within 6 months.

I learnt Spanish and German from his audiobooks. They are worth the money if you can afford it and/or cannot pirate it.

Even the smaller competitors like Bombardier would have an interest in this, even if they are not the manufacturers of similar sized aircraft, a loss of faith in the aviation industry hurts everyone too. Plus suppliers etc.

As for the investigators (I know you meant FAA, not FCC), we have a similar issue in medical devices - you need seriously well educated experts to perform the investigations, and it is hard to find any without industry experience which wouldn’t look good on paper. The solution is to try as hard as you can to not have ex-employees audit their ex-bosses, but it isn’t always possible so we accept some overlap. It doesn’t mean these people don’t take their job seriously.

I don’t think this ends in beheadings, but there will (hopefully) be significant follow on effects. A threat to consumer confidence in flying is a risk to the entire industry, all Boeing’s competitors and the airlines will be screaming for the FAA to get the actions right here…

Ive seen people struggle with drinking almost all my life and in my opinion it’s as bad as a cocaine habit, and just as hard to kick.

Just know you don’t need to go it alone and you should access everything within reach (friends, programs at work etc.) when you decide to change it.

I wish you the absolute best!

I really like this idea!

Thanks! I wasn’t clear on that detail!
