Robot cars can be crashed with tinfoil and painted cardboard (www.theregister.com)

A team of researchers from prominent universities – including SUNY Buffalo, Iowa State, UNC Charlotte, and Purdue – were able to turn an autonomous vehicle (AV) operated on the open sourced Apollo driving platform from Chinese web giant Baidu into a deadly weapon by tricking its multi-sensor fusion system, and suggest the...

It is old.

I mean, not this certain attack, but the principle is well known.

The solution is also known: any sensor (or at least any critically important sensor) in a robotic system must be able to recognize it’s own state of “blindness”. The system must react accordingly. (For example, with the camera behind the windshield, it would activate the wipers and the heating in the windshield to remove possible rain, snow or dirt). If several sensors go “blind” at the same time, the system must do a safe stop of the car.

road pirates robbing automated trucks

Ok but the problem of road pirates isn’t new either, is it? Let’s watch ‘Herbie’ again :-)

There is just one risk that is kinda new (but actually coming with every automation): systematic errors could bring vulnerabilities that get exploited in large numbers.

This Hacker Tool Extracts All the Data Collected by Windows’ New Recall AI (www.wired.com)

When Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella revealed the new Windows AI tool that can answer questions about your web browsing and laptop use, he said one of the “magical” things about it was that the data doesn’t leave your laptop; the Windows Recall system takes screenshots of your activity every five seconds and saves them on the...

NeoNachtwaechter,

So the next step is: M$ encrypts their local database.

Later they want to upload it to their servers to further exploit your data. But then it is encrypted (and of course only M$ has the key), therefore the upload will be very hard to detect.

Hmpf.

NeoNachtwaechter,

Take the intestines out and make a flower box.

This, so much.

ZFS itself sticks to the error stubbornly but does bot have any more info. SMART reports good drives.

This means: look elsewhere.

NeoNachtwaechter,

Do you know of any other way to make ZFS more verbose on the issue

ZFS is the wrong place to look at.

Analogy:

Imagine there is an evil teacher in grammar school. Your kids are telling you, but they are unable to explain further what exactly is wrong with the teacher.

Then you don’t wait until your kids grow up and understand it all and can explain it all to you, but you go directly to the school to find out what it is what that teacher is doing.

Do they still have enough staff on board to roll back anything?

Do they even have enough staff on board to panic?

is there an arch Fork where I can compile every package myself?

In order to be able to Further configure my system, I am looking for a fork of my current OS (artix with openRC as init system) in which i am able to compile every package from source in order to Further configure it with make flags. I am currently not using gentoo, and because the packages in its default repos are only updated...

Is cloudflare breaking the internet or fixing it?

I am a plebe who doesn’t understand these things but what exactly does cloudflare do? I see it popping up more and more often redirecting before visiting a site. I assume that this has something to do with bot traffic? It seems like every mention of cloudflare is about how it ruined someone’s day.

NeoNachtwaechter,

average Joe from some random country that is well-known for being the source of botnets or DDOS attacks, you’re fucked out of luck on

Like painpal blocking you and taking away your money forever if the person who lives in the flat above you is suspected of being a criminal.

NeoNachtwaechter, (edited )

This is nonsense. Arguments can exist even if you don’t know them or if you are unable to formulate them.

You are mixing up the pure existence of arguments with the personal ability to formulate such arguments.

How ‘emotion’ suddenly appears in your logic is beyond understanding. (Did you mean ‘intuition’ maybe? Please look up ‘intuition’ right now)

NeoNachtwaechter, (edited )

I believe the sun will rise tomorrow

It is belief. It comes from experience and is therefore well-founded. Not depending on emotion. Not very open to arguments.

Yes. Isn’t it ironic when they pay their horrendous fines with their horrendous venture capital?

Feeling Overwhelmed Picking Door Sensors

I’m looking for door & window contact sensors and motion sensors to replace an old Simon 3 ADT security system. I’ve read a lot of posts and such and I’m still having a hard time picking out sensors that will work with an existing Smarthings v2 Hub (currently used for lights) and eventually Home Assistant once life calms...

NeoNachtwaechter,

I have tried door/window sensors from Aliexpress that run on batteries and send a 433MHz signal. If you look hard enough: the type that sends ‘open’ AND ‘close’ signals.

Then a ‘Sonoff’ bridge device with Tasmota firmware to translate from 433 to WiFi/MQTT for HA.

This works very good. The range of a 433 signal is enormous. (It was >5 years ago, so I don’t know if that bridge device is still available now)

Their advantage is that this technology needs only low power, so the sensors can last long on a battery.

The disadvantage is that replacing batteries in the sensors after 1 - 1.5 years still sucks.

outside court

If you mean a different time, not while the proceedings are ongoing, then it’s easy: yes, the judge has the same right to sue as anybody else. (And No, that would not make the judge biased. That idea is somewhat ridiculous).

If you mean during the proceedings, then the judge has the additional right to call that person to order with a fine. Repeatedly, if needed.

NeoNachtwaechter,

Is it that easy to make your judges ‘biased’ LOL? Where is that?

NeoNachtwaechter,

What if the judge loses the libel case?

Then you should look for stronger insults LOL

No. There is nothing to it. Real lawyers and judges have heard it before, and better.

NeoNachtwaechter,

Judges hate this this one trick.

They don’t even give a yawn.

NeoNachtwaechter,

If a judge is called ‘corrupt’ by a defendant

After thinking again:

In most parts of the world, such behaviour would bring you a few years extra in some really bad jail, or 30 good strikes extra with the whip (this is near death), or simply a stronger kind of penalty than you deserve for whatever you have done. It is a bad idea. It is far from funny.

Of course you are talking of the Usa here. And of course their system is corrupted. But I really don’t think it is that corrupted that you could actually get an advantage from such bad behaviour instead of an extra penalty.

NeoNachtwaechter,

is not an indication of

I did not say that

your recommendation

and I did not recommend anything.

You are allowed to read my text once more now.

NeoNachtwaechter,

just don’t break any laws then

A very naïve idea :-(
