I'm glad they made the video, but I think it has been common knowledge for quite some time that the protocol is highly insecure and that anyone spoofing a pair of headphones can inject executable instructions. China's 110 group has been using this heavily for about nine years on American soil because the short range of the signal necessarily means there is no automated logging of the code used to achieve the penetration as there would be when using a cellular traffic protocol. Once someone gets into a phone in this way, they can even re-program the phone to act as a Bluetooth spoofer which automatically maps out networks of acquaintances.

One of the most common implementations when 110 uses it is to send a young woman with the Bluetooth spoofer into a gym in, let's say, Arlington, Virginia (as many federal employees and people who work for defense contractors live there) so that they can get close to people who have Bluetooth actively running to stream music. The girls will usually be wearing American-themed patriotic attire, which is laying it on a bit thick if you ask me.

The U.S. Government has been silent on this issue the entire time but has made some plans to build ELINT-secure gyms in government buildings and to encourage employees to use those employee-only gyms to "prevent workplace injuries." The trouble is that the federal employees are not being warned against using Bluetooth and they are not being warned against using public gyms.

What the fuck why haven't they gotten phones with 3.5mm jacks and had special firmware made with Bluetooth disabled?

It would be an accurate renaming, considering how they have clearly stated that this is what they want to be.

When windows vista came out, I started calling it 'Mickeysoft' at work. Some took it over and used it as as derogatory term when something went wrong with MS technology.

So I'm up using the term 'Microslop' whenever MS pushes the AI wagon a bit too much, which is, by any tech company standard, a lot.

which ones are you referring to?
also the best VPNs these days are multi-hop that you build yourself.
start by connecting to some shared VPN then route through a residential VPN.
the residential VPNs don't really log because they're not really legal. you're just buying access to a botnet.

>>107747662
On rare occasions it is indeed selling their home connections for passive income, but in most cases it's straight-up botnets through either hacking or free (malicious) software.
Yes, padding would work with VPNs. While it isn't commonly implemented, you can implement it yourself in a rudimentary manner.

Sound isolation works by having multiple different surfaces, with each boundary dissipating some of the sound energy. As far as I know acoustic foam does very much isolate because all the subtrate-air barriers work to do this.
>the foam makes the sounds "sound" better in interior spaces by isolating them, and has basically nothing to do with the actual soundproofing to the outside.
This sentence sounds nonsensical to me. First of all "isolating sound" = soundproofing, so I have no idea what you mean by saying foam isolates spaces but has "nothing to do with soundproofing".
Secondly, the other anon is right, isolating from what? Acousting foam in interior spaces is meant to absorb sound, and reduce echoes that would otherwise bounce off the walls and interfere with things.

If there's bitrot then you wouldn't know until you opened the bitrotted file. Use a checksumming filesystem to avoid that.
>partition commands
Yeah if you're afraid of a fucked partition but the partitions look fine then you should be fine. Any sort of overwriting operation would have almost certainly started by overwriting your filesystem, not the actual file data, so if the files all look like they're still there (i.e. the filesystem metadata wasn't wiped) then it's basically certain that the files themselves are also fine.

It's called having an honour system.
All DRM can be cracked anyway unless you pay out of your ass for an enterprise denuvo license and annoy a ton of people who hate denuvo on principle. There's a reason only normieslop AAA games bother with denuvo.
Otherwise, pirates will pirate, and honest people will remain honest. Many small or indie devs just don't bother with DRM at all as a gesture of goodwill towards players, "look, I trust you guys to not just share it everywhere".

Personally I'm more likely to pirate a game if it has more DRM, and I will never ever pay for a game with denuvo for example.
>>
>>107746814
>>107747229
fair enough, i know all of that stuff already and the drm free part is one of the main reasons i purchased the game, normally i wouldn't because i hate drm and similar anti-consumer practices for the same reasons you described.
I guess the thing that i find weird is that overall i pirate a fuckton of games in all kinds of ways and from all sorts of sources and never once did I ever come across an humble bundle installer or zip file, let alone an official torrent from it, so I just assumed they had some restriction going on but I guess not?
GOG installers on the other hand are extremely easy to come by, that's what makes this confusing for me, i guess i didn't make it very clear what my point was.
Also i just noticed their torrent link does have a bunch of weird values appended to it (one of them is exp=*long number*, as in expiration maybe??) so I still think maybe i'm not entirely wrong in my assumption.

Burn in is why these screensavers made most of the screen dark and just drew a relatively few lines (Mystify Your Mind), dots (Starfield Simulation), images (Flying Windows), etc., and always in motion. Typically it would screensave for a while and then put the screen to sleep / blank it. Or you could shut off your screen if you were going away from your PC for longer.

Or if you didn't care about entertaining animations, you could choose the "Blank Screen" screensaver.
