they can’t be jammed the way radio can.
I wonder how well these satellite laser links do with various types of cloud cover.
By repeating their rhetoric, even as a joke, it's just giving oxygen to people who don't deserve any form of publicity whatsoever. It would be better not to reference these batshit-insane conspiracy theories and then perhaps they would die more quickly.
This story is about French/space/communications/technology. Not American/politics/racist/conspiracy. Not one genre overlap, so there's no reason to even bring it up here. Maybe leave these jokes to the American politics threads.
(Federated) email didn't survive. It got completely subsumed by the major providers who now have control over everything email related. It's now impossible to run your own email server since none of the major providers will deliver your email without your mail server having first built a reputation.
The fediverse analogy would be if 99.9999% of users were on Threads and you couldn't interact with any of those users from any of the small independent fediverse servers. Frankly, that's exactly what it looks like is happening.
Wait until you see the ones that let you choose between "Accept All" and "Subscribe to monthly plan 4.99/mo"
I saw a website like that the other week and it was based in an EU country.
Got a link to that?
Can't wait to read about it telling someone to put glue on pizza.
It's not reading the contents of RAM via EM emanations, it's using the EM emanations caused by certain memory access patterns as a side channel to exfiltrate data. Of course, that data could be anything, including whatever is in RAM, but the point is that you need to be running the code that generates the necessary memory access patterns to transmit the bits of data. This is not like TEMPEST where you can reconstruct a video display just using the emanations.
Thanks! I was racking my brain trying to think of where I knew it from, and after seeing the page that you linked I'm almost certain that it's After Burner that is causing my brain to trigger the 80s association.
You can tell just from the font that this book is from the 80s
If it was plausible this would be bigger news. There's a claim like this every couple of months and none have held up to scrutiny so far.
I love that the local translation feature is getting regular small updates to make it more useable. It's a great feature.

This is an interesting article and yet you've chosen to quote the most speculative unscientific part of it from the final paragraph.
"Have you tried going outside" is not a scientific cure for depression.
Most people know at this point that when searching for a popular software package to download, you should be very careful to avoid clicking on any of the search ads that appear, as this has become an extremely common vector for distributing malware to unsuspecting users.
If you thought that you could identify these malicious ads by checking the URL below the ad to see if it directs to the legitimate site, think again! Malware advertisers have found a way to use Google's Ad platform to fake the URL shown with the ad to make it appear like a legitimate ad for the product when in fact, clicking the ad will redirect to an attacker controlled site serving malware.
Don't click on search ads or, even better, use an ad-blocker so that you never see them in the first place!
