  • Felt cute, might delete [your existence] later.

  • yep, i use Cloudflare's CSAM tool to help aid in this... scans all object storage and cached items against known CSAM hashes. i don't think most people hosting instances consider this as a massive liability if it's open to the web for all to see... the feds (only talking about USA here) will shut you down or worse threaten charges if nothing is done about it.

  • Just out of curiosity, when you say you "regularly pick them up", is it intelligible audio (clear voice conversations) or is it the digital modulation that's leaking over to your freqs? I don't have a good answer for the first problem since that shouldn't be possible unless there's an open patch somewhere that shouldn't be enabled, but I can 100% believe the second problem. In either case, it's poor practice from the radio maintainer of the offending system... and it's illegal regardless since their license is not valid for out-of-band transmissions and the modulation format is probably not licensed for use on those freqs. You'd be surprised, but FCC enforcement will take that very seriously.

  • and anyone with a decent understanding of basic IT security knew this was going to be a thing. there's a misconception among the big radio manufacturers (looking at you //) that think they're immune to the same security scrutiny as computer networks and security through obscurity is good enough... well they're dead wrong. hell, i'd argue it's even worse given the physical layer is available to anyone that has their "ears" on. give someone an RTL-SDR or HackRF with the right skill set and they'd have a field day with how insecure this stuff is. and there is a ton of legacy stuff out there that never gets updated... but no worries, let's shell out more tax payer money to upgrade their radios again because it never seems to work right the first time... hmm, I wonder why.

  • Hello Mr. Yakamoto and welcome back to the GAP!

  • Then you must have had a good time.

  • Don't worry, it's just a friendly meeting with the Bobs

  • Edgar, your skin is hanging off your bones.

  • O-rings. Lube them up so they don't leak in use/dry out in storage for my cheap-o pool, works great.

    battery may explode on impact

  • and like who the hell is he gonna hire to do this "research"? they're all going to be bottom barrel D students at best, lol. good luck with that, but i guess you gotta find ways to pump up those stocks somehow, i suppose.

  • and from what i remember, staying true to typical google fashion, they fucked it up by not opening up the "beta" when they had a critical mass forming behind it. then only to force everyone into having a profile a year or whatever later. lol, too late. i think most of us understood that anything associated with google is assumed to be a never-ending "beta", so no idea what they were thinking or waiting for.

  • the fbi hates this one simple trick

  • i forget where i found this, maybe it was hacker news or the alien place that shall remain nameless, but someone posted this cool site https://oldgamesdownload.com/ from a similar discussion. found several obscure childhood PC games I've been desperately looking for, hasn't failed me yet... or set the sails on the right path.
