I guess at least you won't be paying to get screwed, that's a pretty significant upgrade from most universities.

I thought it was already fairly well established that symmetric encryption is not something that a quantum computer could potentially crack, only asymmetric encryption is theoretically possible due to its use of a prime order field.

Shor's algorithm is a quantum algorithm for finding the prime factors of an integer. It was developed in 1994 by the American mathematician Peter Shor.[1][2] It is one of the few known quantum algorithms with compelling potential applications and strong evidence of superpolynomial speedup compared to best known classical (non-quantum) algorithms

a quantum computer with a sufficient number of qubits could operate without succumbing to quantum noise and other quantum-decoherence phenomena, then Shor's algorithm could be used to break public-key cryptography schemes, such as

• The RSA scheme
• The Finite Field Diffie-Hellman key exchange
• The Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange

Moreover:

The largest number reliably factored by Shor's algorithm is 21 which was factored in 2012 (ie faster than a regular computer, the much higher records like 48 bit utilized pre and post processing and was faster on a regular computer).

Even if we go with the assumption that the military is 10 years ahead in technology and can factor 221 with Shor's, that's still nowhere near enough to break RSA. Much more efficient to attack all the systemic flaws in RSA, hence why 1024 is no longer considered secure, 2048 is assumed to be breakable by any 3 letter agency, 4096 is assumed to be safe (for now), but mostly the latest and greatest is elliptical ECDSA/Ed25519 (of which NIST has been accused of rigging ECDSA for easier cracking lol).

Bruh this comments section is making the wrong conclusions

Clamshell design was and always will be the superior space format. There's a reason why the DS and 3DS had so much homebrew, it was practically the successor to PDAs.

Android foldables have barely scratched the surface in split screen and back screen utility, but the half size alone makes it very nice to carry.

The real issue here is that yet another small groundbreaking OEM died because Android device development is an oligopoly. Google, Samsung, Motorola, and Oppo simply took the technology the moment it was revealed and immediately made competitor devices, regardless of initial quality, to get investors excited.

No one was gonna invest in some small Chinese OEM if the big ones were gonna do the same thing and guarantee sales + existence.

This exactly why Android feature development has stalled so hard. Everyone sits around twiddling their thumbs for several generations worth of phones until another startup comes up with a new feature they can implement for cash grab. It's so bad we literally lost features like NFC bumping just to match what everyone else is doing.

If some startup made a phone with the camera shifted an inch to the center, I can guarantee you the next pixel or galaxy will have it for literally no practical reason other than to prevent competition.

The windows one seems exaggerated until you try to set it up with a regular local account.

Setting up a scratch install VM is such a pain.

I actually decided to search this because I thought the whole point of DEF was so trucks wouldn't need to use an EGR like every car does.

Apparently emissions is complicated and expensive lol, so lots of trucks have both.

Newer models however have started creating systems that remove the EGR and instead rely solely on the SCR with a bigger DEF tank and a cleanup catalyst.

I think DEF is still the right direction. Exhaust recycling has a ton of downsides that took car OEMs a while to hack their way around (or give up and plan for 150k mile expectancy).

4,500 for a mod though is still pretty expensive for something you can do yourself. Most of that cost was probably due to it being illegal, not because it's hard to accomplish.

Adani and the other defendants allegedly paid more than $250 million in bribes to Indian government officials to obtain “lucrative solar energy supply contracts with the Indian government.”

Bruh they did this in Pakistan a decade ago and it was probably the smaller of the crimes committed by the political mafia lol (of which practically no one served any meaningful time in jail).

In presidential elections, it supervises the national convention and, both independently and in coordination with the presidential candidate, raises funds, commissions polls, and coordinates campaign strategy.

Again there is just no possible way the DNC is financially related to the very candidate it is promoting. Obviously, the Wikipedia editors are wrong /s

From the telegraph article:

Imran Khan has been granted bail by a Pakistani court for one of the cases against him but the ex-prime minister is likely to remain in jail because of a host of other charges.

On Wednesday, Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb, of the Islamabad High Court, accepted the former cricketer’s bail plea in a trial relating to alleged illegal sale of state gifts.

But there was “no chance” of his release because of at least eight other charges against him, Pakistan’s information minister said.

“Release for him is not possible; there are many other cases he needs to secure bail in,” Attaullah Tarar told Pakistani media.

Mr Tarar added that the eight other charges related to the “mayhem” of May 9 2023, when Khan’s supporters rioted and stormed the Pakistani army’s headquarters in response to his arrest.

Seems like something brewing behind the scenes after the US election considering they were stalling all these cases since August last year.

Dunno how but it seems to be some autoimage that matched for "bail" lol

Jokes on you I read the summary which is totally enough to cover the actual content of the article with no lack of detailed information whatsoever.

Poor soul thinks said corporate media somehow exists completely outside of the scope of the DNC as if the DNC itself isn't just a convention for corporate donors to show up and throw in their demands in exchange for campaign funds and lobbying money.

I mean I'm sure the headline NYT article about Clinton having a 91% chance of winning was totally some next level corporate funded psyop and not a one of the many thousands of advertisements paid for by the DNC. /s

No, it's totally the corporate media that's after her and has absolutely nothing to do with the candidate that dropped the entire uncommitted movement worth of constituents for $100 mil in corporate AIPAC money. /s

I'm appalled at the amount of people in this comments section who failed elementary grade school level of physics and also somehow failed to notice this is the shitpost community

Taking bets on whether we'll actually see the latest litho tech chips come out of the Arizona fab or RISC-V from China fabs will overtake ARM first.

They killed yuzu and ryujinx well before Switch 2 launch out of fear of piracy. Even the current switch DRM is insane. I feel like they put their dev team into full security because the OS is still an empty shell glorified game launcher. The DS had more features than this.

Even the yuzu forks can't exist peacefully online, one them literally requires you to use Tor to access.

Nintendo is insane.

What about cellophane?

Measures include threatening federal funding, revoking accreditation, and pressuring institutions to suppress protests.

I thought someone literally recorded a clip of UofM's Santa Ono claiming all the above for as far back as the protests started, which is why most universities already cracked down in their student body.

DSLinux

The F in FOSS was worth it for the two years it took for other clients to catch up lol. imo it was the most complete package after the reddit transfer.

I might actually switch now considering there are lots of feature developed apps available, but it was funny seeing people struggle to view content as simple as spoiler tags for months during thr lemmy boom.

Another day of boost being ahead of the curve hehe

Me trying to find the restrictions in question just like me trying to find Biden's red line and also just like me trying to find Blinken's endzone and also me trying to find the consequences of Israel's actions for the past 13 months.

What a joke lol
