- Comment on Trump Admin Considering Giving $10,000 To Each Person In Greenland To Annex The Island 2 days ago:
Greenland gets about that much per person in subsidies every year, so gl with that.
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 5 days ago:
As much as I hate the guy I hope he isn’t killed. The last thing we need is republicans having a martyr, especially before they find out how bad for them he is.
With tariff fallout there are decent chances they will not have a majority for a long time. After the tariff act of 1930 they went from having 14 seats more than democrats to a low of 16 seats out of 96 In senate in just 8 years. After that they had a senate majority once and congress majority twice in the next 50+ years.
- Comment on Is cops being evil/lazy/incompetent a USA specific thing, or is it the same everywhere in the world? 5 weeks ago:
Mandatory training to become a police officer:
- US: 600-700 hours on average, much of which is gun and combat training and not policing
- Canada 2080 hours
- Spain 2880 hours
- Germany 4000 hours
With that little time spent training and heavy combat focus a US cop might get as little as 2-4 weeks of training on everything that a cop does that doesn’t involve guns.

- Comment on What is your ideal ambient humidity? 2 months ago:
Check silica packet effectiveness below 50% humidity… It’s not great. Molecular sieve on the other hand has no problem getting humidity below 5%. I managed to buy a 10kg bucket of 3A sieve for about $120 and it’s going to be enough for many years.
- Comment on What is your ideal ambient humidity? 2 months ago:
I store all my filament in ziplock bags with some 3a molecular sieve - even after 2 years in 45-65% humidity at 21C room I don’t have to dry PETG.
- Comment on What kind of special knowledge or equipment does piracy groups have? 5 months ago:
- HDCP had flaws and keys up to version up to 2.1 were extracted/reversed. In addition to that there is hdfury device that legally and following HDCP licencing terms downgraded 2.2 to lower 2.x versions to provide compatibility. They got smarter and blocked downgrading in later versions. Blocking HDCP older than that would also break compatibility with devices that don’t support versions of the standard newer than late 2012. Add a capture card and you are set.
- Widevine L1 keys were extracted from a Qualcomm CPU in 2021. They are also stored in Intel CPUs in SGX which had so many flaws over the years I’d be surprised nobody grabbed keys at some point
- Both audio and sound has to be decrypted and analog at some point - you can capture it if you have the hardware and willingness to e.g. grab it at a LCD display ribbon. Not as good/convenient as decrypting it, but it is an option.
