Probably. But I didn’t want them dealing with being cut off. They can do what they want but since it’s a dorm you can be sure they’ve had these conversations before

This is for the A7 but may show you how to turn off wifi on yours if the UI is the same

Depends on whether you can adjust the Tx level but then you run into FCC level stuff that most people avoid (since boosting it is a huge issue with interference)

But this is a dorm. A shared environment with close proximity.

If everyone had their own Wi-Fi transmitting at normal power there would be too much interference that even channel hopping wouldn’t fix it.

Not to say that there can’t be some middle ground but the Wild West attitude isn’t kosher either.

Rf interference. Similar to having multiple microwaves running near your router, or those old rf based baby monitors.

Congested the 2.4 or 5gz spectrum with noise causing noise and retransmits or outright stopping the wifi from working.

If you have an old radio that does AM find a AM channel that isn’t broadcasting and bring it near your router. You can actually “hear” the noise those things are putting out.

Note that hiding its SSID won’t turn off the wireless broadcast which would be adding to the “noise” in whatever channel it’s using.

In this case you would want to turn off the wireless itself

This is my very rough back of the napkin explanation but I’ll give it a try.

There are 3 aspects of the world. The physical, the spiritual and the cognitive.

The one thing all of the magic systems have in common is that the different shards affect how these different realms are used to affect others. Mainly through investiture (the spiritual potential energy if you will) to affect the physical, cognitive and spiritual realms.

In Roshar, for example. Investiture allows some to specify intent into the cognitive realm. Where the mental perceptions of things exist and have a kind of will over time. And when those are convinced to change it impacts the physical realm. The energy source allowing that intent to be work is Stormlight.

While in Scadrial (from Mistborn) there are actually multiple magic systems. One of which allows consumption of some aspect of the physical realm to gain enough investiture to affect the cognitive realm/spiritual realm to affect the physical (by changing various forces of attraction, repulsion, etc). That’s not even including Metallurgy which is its own thing.

I definitely recommend reading the Mistborn series where you’ll see his magic system from a different perspective and start to see parallels.

But at the end of the day there’s

• Mental will or intent by somebody with a link or “investiture” to a worlds magic system.

• The things to be changed/affected in one or more of the planes of existence by using the spiritual investiture

• The investiture source usually from consuming something from one of those planes such as metals, life force, cognitive.

For example I think the Nightwatcher tends to impose some kind of cognitive cost for her boon which affects spiritual bonds. So even in Roshar you have the impact of multiple shards and can see how they tend to warp how the magic works.

Exactly. And in such a scenario it becomes an issue for Kinkos

Issue here is that what’s in a safe deposit box isn’t also being shared/distributed. It is locked away.

If, however, they made copies of the contents of a box and put it in other boxes … and it came out somebody used that for CSAM then there probably would be some kind of liability.

Besides CSAM there’s also copyrighted material, etc which section 230 kind of covers but even then gets tricky since there’s a duty to respond to DMCA takedowns in order to get safe harbor protections.

Static files as in static file handling in a web server no CGI, modules, server side code required.

Seems reasonable. This is exactly what the FAA should be doing and is why flying is so safe since every crash and accident becomes an opportunity to learn and adjust procedures to minimize the risks.

Let’s find out why it failed and then identify metrics for when a module can be reused.

How focused and zen did you feel during the process?

Have you recently been body swapping?

How long before there’s a discovery request for all recall data for a time period and companies start screaming about the risks with recall?

How do you feel about stomaching 4chan for a few weeks?

Which, if ChatGPT has or is getting parity with human writers then, by definition, it’s going to be impossible to tell the difference.

And if it can tell the difference it’s either going to prove their product is substandard, they can identify snippets of copyrighted material they have in their training set, or falsely identify people whose content and styles their training on.

I’m not sure what the angel here is for OpenAI but it’s problematic to their brand and, potentially, legally no matter how they go about it.

True. This does allow for persistent recurring infection post clean and cold boot.

Interesting flaw to keep an eye on.

Quarterly reports demand that line go up.

The line must always go up.

I think Secure boot is intended to check that the boot loader itself is signed.

This is a way to mitigate viruses and malware that infects the boot loader so it can reinstall itself if it’s removed by AV, or something else.

If you can create a boot loader that is signed in such a way that secure boot can’t tell it’s invalid then you can do some nasty stuff.

Closest analogy I can think of is verisigns private key being leaked and there’s no fast and easy way to revoke and replace it without wreaking havoc on currently installed OS’s machines.

It’s really good but yeah, darker skin with Asian facial features (especially around the eyes)
