>>3636 If you remove network technology then indusrrial revolution gets undone, which pretty much agrees with ted But my question is, dont you think we are too far gone

>>3638 I do think we are too far gone. As Uncle Ted says, it is also our undoing. Networks are also easy to destroy due to dependencies. A network such as the one we live in, is very vulnerable to many different things. In uncle ted's terms, FC just waits for an incident like solar flare/nuclear war to occur. Until then, we do our best to survive against modernity.

>>3638 Removal of network technology == Undoing industrial revolution You can still have localized factories , their scale and capability will be more akin to 1800's than anything modern today. But we also have extremely efficient technologies now, which will help us. Am I saying we can continue to live as we do without network tech ? No. IT has to change. But it doesn't have to be fully anti tech.

>>3644 Dont you think a solar flare/CME of that scale is very unlikely as of now A nuclear war might happen in this century though, although even that seems unlikely Your opinion on astrologers predicting war in next 3 years ?

>>3645 I dont think it is possible now

>>3645 I believe there are ways of doing this already, I have some engineering friends that are thinking about setting it up. Censorship is going to get a lot worse in the next year or two.

>>3646 Limited nuclear exchange isn't crazy considering both a multipolar world and nuclear proliferation. Iran and Israel seem the likeliest - I don't think even China is retarded enough to try it.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07744-y Superiority in climate models, indicates superiority in modelling atmospheric circulation. Which indicates superiority in modelling nuclear war. It does not predict extreme events well, this is understandable. But not important, you need to get the general circulation right with low computing power and high speed, allowing you to run war games in detailed scenario's. Mastery of AI and basic sciences is necessary to keep winning against our enemies, otherwise we will end up being insects like Libyan's, Syrians etc. More so than we already are. Genius alone is not enough or even useful. You need creativity. You need minds not limited by morality.

Most govt websites continue to have terrible security. Using outdated architecture like Apache servers, which allow anyone to view sensitive data. Terrible.

>>7966 this reminds me of a website I came across just the other day: https://indianaerospaceandengineering.com/media/student/aadharcard/

>>7968 There are even websites with old SQL database's exposing credit card numbers and other details. I don't want to name them given GOI's track record. All talk of technological progress is nice. Without getting basics right it is meaningless.

>>7966 I remember filling up a form for something some years ago, it was not a government website. These websites usually have an option to see the file you have uploaded. So I clicked on the link and it opened a new tab with my aadhar card photo in it. The url ended in a number, like 123456.jpg for example, i just changed the number at the end and now it suddenly loaded someone else's aadhar card kek So anyone could write a script and get all those aadhar cards. I wonder if scammers make use of this personal info to scam you? They have a lot of data about you >>7968 Did you also post this on reddit

>>7973 No. I am working on an eassay on how dystopian most commercial tech is, sent it to a friend. He made this after reading it. I have never used reddit. And never will. Its a topic that has become very important as things keep getting worst.

>>7975 Do post it here if you can >>7992 Once you have read most entries on gnu.org malware page you stop being surprised anymore.

>>8009 >>7992 The disturbing part is, these TV's only scan for the personal stuff you watch. Not the normal TV content. It is impossible to buy a non Smart TV non. Even the Tizen ones are pure spyware.

>>8009 I will post it here eventually for sure.
