OH: Ein […] präziser Indikator ist die Wurfreichweite der […] Geräte.
Größer gleich 10 Meter ist alles IOT, größer gleich 1 Meter aber unter 10 Meter ist alles IT und unter 1 Meter ist es OT.
Der Wurf ist vom jeweiligen Admin ohne Hilfsmittel wie Belagerungswaffen ausführen. Es gilt nur die horizontale Entfernung. Es ist die vollständige produktive Einheit zu werfen.
Today in #ITSecurity gone wrong: I am in Austria as a German. I just received a notification via cell broadcast about a fire in the area. The broadcast contains a URL - but this URL is only accessible from an Austrian IP address. My LTE roaming IP isn’t allowed. So… I guess I just suffocate because I have the wrong IP address, then? 😅
@ennolenze Normale Böller bräuchten wahrscheinlich einen so hohenn Multiplikator, dass der es wieder unbegreiflich machen würde.
Die Zerstörungswirkung ist wahrscheinlich für bessere Beschreibungen gut.

@cstross @leyrer Ringtones in filenames? I was so preoccupied with whether or not I could, I didn't stop to think if I should.

Litany against advertisement

I must not look.
Ads are the mind-leech.
Ads are the little-noise that sells hollow wants.
I will block the ad.
I will allow it no passage into thought or habit.
And when it is gone, I will turn my mind’s eye to where it tried to settle.
Where the ad once flickered, there will be emptiness. Only intention will remain.

Microsoft: "we gonna screenshot every 3 seconds and feed it to Windows 11's AI assistant."

Signal: "This dangerous. Please put option to disable"

Microsoft: "No! Everything will be fed to the AI, except DRM protected content of course."

Microsoft: .....

Microsoft: ".. Don't you dare-"

Signal: *Calls to DRM API to protect user privacy*
