  • someone genuinely interested for intellectual reasons would likely not fall for it. I would imagine that a non-trivial percentage of “antiquity enjoyers” are very light on history substance and heavy on history feelz.

    once the appropriate brain tickles have been pushed into their heads their “history substance” feed content becomes decidedly propagandized.




  • not that you shouldn’t replace the drive anyway, but…

    depending on the drive epoch (I am guessing its ide/ata not ST-506) you could try a factory format. with the right drive and phase of the moon, the on-drive controller may actually go off and do it for real instead of faking it. its usually worth a try an old drive just for funsies.


  • no worries.

    the net effect of client separation is that your device sees no other layer 2 devices on the wlan besides the gateway. this would typically be enforced at the frame level by the APs and is separate from any radio privacy cryptography.

    a properly configured wireless setup would assume every client is compromised and would also disallow local client-client via source routing or proxy ARP or any other escape options. 100% secure? probably not, but its a non trivial barrier that would have to be circumvented.

    as with e.g. broken WEP years ago, there are still options to mess with clients at ~Layer 1 but I dont believe its currently as trivial as it used to be.




  • “However, if there are dark matter self-interactions, what happens is this energy is redistributed between the particles in the central region of the galaxy so that the dark matter is not dispersed away,” Alonso-Álvarez added. “This is crucial.”

    but “more black holes” does not seem to account for the way black hole mergers actually take place.

    the hypothesis is that dark matter gravity and dark matter self interaction facilitate the “viscous-fluid” energy loss to spiral the black hole objects into a merger.

    true? no clue. but we keep seeing effects of “dark matter” that are not easily explained by anything we are currently understand.
