When I look at some of the ideas they came up with, I have to assume it was actually just a cunning plan for America to keep their more deranged inventors, schemers and general crazy folk occupied and out of trouble until and unless Uncle Sam needed their unique thought processes.
It was all managed through a proper chain of command so that they knew the plan and could inform Castro and he could avoid it. After all, they didn’t want the plans to succeed, or they’d need a different way to keep those people occupied.
For the more serious folks, and those who know about this, this post is a bit of whimsy, it’s not serious.

- Comment on Sweet dreams are made of these? 3 weeks ago:
In a way that’s the very point. They shame people for, amongst other things, what they percieve as sexual deviancy. So, making them realise that one of their own comes up with what they would consider deviant may lead some to reevaluate their position on what is acceptable and/or what they think of him, and whether they keep listening to him. I acknowledge it’s a long shot, but anything that erodes their adherence to these rightwing ‘thought leaders’ is beneficial.

Why would you do that to me??!? I was having a perfectly nice day and then I get two awful images put in my head in the course of five minutes.
Do not suggest making it a three-way between them, that image would be even worse.

They're typically roughly cuboid, though best approximated with rounded corners, and wrapped in a layer of plastic.

Yeah, they really had to rise to the occasion here. Some people would have disposed of it irresponsibly, but I guess they're just bread better there, although whoever left it in the sun must have been baked.

- Comment on Humans can be tracked with unique 'fingerprint' based on how their bodies block Wi-Fi signals 2 months ago:
It tracks the location of a body (or anything else that causes the same sort if interference), but it doesn't identify the person, and as such they can reasonably make the claim that this technology is privacy preserving.
Of course, as with anything that claims to anonymise data, or preserve privacy, that assertion starts to fall down when you use the resulting data in conjunction with other data sources, even if they too claim to be privacy preserving.

It might not be windowless; consider midwinter, when a real window will just be a dark rectangle for most of the important parts of the morning and evening. Having a fake window showing somewhere bright and warm could help lift one's spirits if you didn't think about it too much.

I've just spotted your username, I feel sure one of your relations had some sort of run in with the sysops already, and now you're trying to convince people that there can't be server reboots? Suspicious. Very suspicious.

No need, you just allocate users to servers depending on theie average sleep/wake cycle nd bounce the servers one at a time, when usage is at a minimum. Ever had one if those late night brain's gone blank moments? Now you know.
- Comment on This new SSD will literally self destruct if you push the big red button it comes with — Team Group posts video of data destruction in action 2 months ago:
Destroying the encryption key tends to be the only reliable way to put the data beyond use. Physical destruction techniques like the obe in the article have been tried before, and iften leave the data intact, just destroying the driver side of the chips. It's not easy to retrieve the data, but a sufficiently determined and resourced oppinent can do it.
Obviously, there's no reason not to do both, for added certainty, but if the encryption protocols used in proper FDE are compromised, we have a lot more to worry about.

It does seem like it would be simpler and more reliable to use full disk encryption to encrypt the data before it's written, and just destroy the key if you want to nuke the data.
- Comment on Exhaustion 2 months ago:
Once you start 'succeeding' at what you're doing it tends to feel like it takes less energy, and if you start to feel good about it, you'll also tend to feel more energetic, so it forms a self reinforcing loop.
It won't work like that for everyone. You have to actually be enthused about the idea of succeeding at whatever it is you're doing and not push so hard you burn out regardless of success, but if you can get into that frame of mind, things becone easier.
