Do you mean in the sense that we enabled Bin Laden in the 80’s? Sure. Otherwise, no, especially given it was Bin Ladens second attempt at destorying the WTC.

I think the fingerprint scan is less invasive because the face scan is passive and it seems like thats what is being implemented at a national level by flock cameras and the like.

The issues get fixed before production, except, not in this case it seems.

American intelligence agencies knew about this, and its obviously a national security issue. I cant help but think these agencies only exist to protect the rich and powerful, not the interests of actual national security.

This is an aluminum panel, not likely to work here

I like the rivian cars, but i have worked for years as a hardware engineer and i am 100 percent certain this was a known issue. I have seen design scrutinized on so much less and this is just such an obvious issue…

Did you know shatter resistant glass exists? Like your windshield for example. The issue is plastic is cheap and easy to manufacture and nothing else.

Its PEMDAS and nothing else

I did it. Only two major hurdles i havent quite got yet, phone (i preorederd a Jolla) and digital payments. Otherwise im pretty glad i ditched everything, including windows.

“William Freeman Ph.D., then an electrical engineer at Polaroid and now an MIT professor, saw it and submitted a novel idea: a three-sided zipper. Instead of fastening pants, it’d be like a switch that seamlessly flipped chairs, tents, and purses between soft and rigid states, making them easier to pack and put together.”

Interesting but useless.

Ive tried to recreate this but im not a netowork engineer or anything. Ive seen the videos of people accessing the cameras. If i could access the cameras our facilities higher ups would surely lose their shit.

Thanks this will be included in my reply.

The patent does explicitly say the intent is facial recognition, which I highlited for them in the email.

This moron is also a MAGA appologist and enabler. I left Proton for other alternatives. They want to claim they are “politically nuetral” well if you really were you wouldnt be commenting at all on politics would you?

The union confirmed that they are.

Ive found GIMP hard to use honestly… I suspect it will end up being replaced entirely by AI

Well i dont know if thats true or not about the data centers but this is a trend that is happening all over the world as i understand it.

Could be possible I think.

This sounds like a good idea but i have never seen anyone do anything like that at my workplace… i fear it might be stigmatizing

Cant say i havent thought about it but its been a lot of work to build my career up to this point.

Regardless of the record of complaint, the potential risk of getting caught is going to cause me to lose my job anyway (at the least). So i figured i should try a legitamate route and that maybe it could work and there wouldnt be any risk that way.
