This is going to be popcorn worthy. Will the SEC comply or is there a way out.

A Google translated Dutch article about Athumi, which also uses ‘data vaults’, like Solid from Tim Berners Lee: Flanders launches Athumi: will we soon decide for ourselves what happens to our online data?

I found tutanota.com three years ago and never looked back. I know the domain is somewhat long and not as easy to decipher as one would like an email domain to be at first glance, but the service is top notch. It’s just really clean-cut, simple, secure email. No bloat, no nonsense. No gmail, basically.

In all honesty companies like OpenAI and Deepmind are holding back, especially Deepmind.

Well good morning to you too Mark! Dammit I have a new MSI motherboard in my cart and was going to seal the deal this morning.
Hmmm

Just in time to remove the MSI motherboard from your cart order, and re-consider an alternative? 
.
Not sure if your MSI board was a server motherboard or consumer, but I am fan of server motherboards that offers a separate processor/BMC chip for IPMI and other feature sets. Once you get used to REST APIs via Redfish to control the motherboard BIOS settings, BIOS/firmware updates over TCP/IP, and HTML5 console rendering, its hard to go back to consumer motherboards. Plus, support of ECC memory is a bonus on most server motherboards.

How do you search through your mails? I’m in the process of considering moving elsewhere, as I can’t get search working. Am I missing something obvious?
Consumer, I will need to read @happybeing’s link again but it seems to predominately affect Widows which I rarely use.
Nonetheless it is a bit of an unnecessary purchase, my motherboard is perfectly fine and just about as good as new.
I broke the PCIe clip while removing my GPU recently which is not exactly good reason to replace the board but I ended up browsing new boards and am now seeing all kinds of new components I want but really don’t need.
(A broken clip resulted in a cart with a new cooler, new case, new mobo and a new cpu )
I have emptied all and will attempt to look no more.
I dread looking into server motherboards as I am likely to succumb to the WANT in much the same manner!

Who’s ready to welcome their Chinese “Terminator” overlords?

Sounds horrible, I pass. US probably already on it since years back to counter them but feels like EU and others needs to wake up and realize war with AI robots or the threat of war is the future.
Wonder if there are any EMP weapons, those would be effective against robot.

On mobile, there is a search symbol next to the messages button in the lower part of the screen. On desktop, it’s all the way up. However, and that’s the one caveat, the filter function is only available for the paid accounts. I also forgot to mention you have to log in every six months at least, or they will disable your free account (does not apply to the paid ones).

All of them as long as they are powerful enough will kill any electronics within the blast zone.
Then we will have robots with inbuilt faraday cages held closed by an electromagnet. So when the parent gets wiped then junior will appear from the faraday cage and keep fighting. [that’s my 2 second invention on beating EMP, I bet there are much smarter ways]

Actually a lot of work has been going into military systems to harden them against EMPs. I am not sure at what level they are at now. The chips they use have higher tolerances for voltage spikes, the cabling is Faraday shielded as well as the electronics in metal enclosures. This started a long time ago.
What size EMP is needed I would be unsure. I guess sensors will be the most vulnerable parts.
Even commercial jets have a high degree of EMP protection, “emp” level shielding (whatever that is) on internal cabling for instrumentation, control etc. The issue with electronics on planes nowaday is more to do with interference with airport to plane communications during take off and landing. It is the increase in noise levels that can in rare cases reduce the accuracy. But the more important reason is that they want you to use the aircraft’s wifi and not have phones all over the plane busting out 3 watts of RF trying to get a cell tower they never will get. 400 passengers and at times you will get 300-1000 watts of RF inside the Faraday shield which is the plane.
