I mean, the Flipper Zero is just a computer with a few radios built-in.
I think the only one they share with most smart glasses is Bluetooth which might potentially have some vulnerabilities which could be exploited, but there are also expansion cards for the Flipper Zero that add everything from wifi and ethernet ports to high-powered IR blasters, so the real question is how vulnerable smart glasses are.
And the truth is, they’re vulnerable by default because they rely on corpo servers to operate like any other “smart” device. Any flaw in the security of the glasses themselves barely holds a candle to the fact that they forward everything to Facebook or some other big tech brand name with a financial interest in monetizing your data.


Save everything you want to keep


And not just the resources, those orbits are going to be cluttered with slowly-deorbiting junk too. Until we get around to making something that can clean them up, we won’t be able to put anything else there.


Absolutely. But at least that bubble is popping. Soon we won’t have to worry about AI mania anymore. XD


This makes a lot of sense though, from the description it sounds like they’re trying to build an NPU out of memristors. We’ve been expecting them to show up to do this kind of math for a bit, since they’d cut a lot of redundant computation out of the layered matrix calculus that NPUs are optimized for if we can make them small, fast, and reliable enough.
And it’s not just for “AI”. A lot of problems, like physics modeling or speech recognition, can be reduced to matrix math. An analog, programmable memristor network can do that kind of calculus almost passively.


Why are people out here calling graupel “sleet” or “ice pellets”? We’ve already got a perfectly good word for graupel. =D


It’s the biggest bubble in history because corporate leadership consistently falls for the reification fallacy.
So-called “AI” (specifically, large language models) are massively-multidimensional maps of human language use. They can be used to draw humanlike vectors through the phase space of all possible combinations of symbols, but they aren’t intelligent because human intelligence doesn’t come from the use of language. Rather, language comes from intelligence.


Looks like it, Steam’s work on gaming for Linux has been instrumental.


If only it worked like that! XD
TBH, I wish I could do group health insurance at a decent rate, but the only options are to cover a single partner or a single partner and dependents…


My life is… complicated.


None, but the married couple I’ve been with for a while finally popped the question to me last week. 🥰


One of my fiancés is narcoleptic and needs meds like GHB to sleep 'cuz the anti-narcoleptics she needs to stay awake during the day won’t let her sleep otherwise.


Bacon, eggs, and biscuits.


The legality is questionable, but just listening is harmless.


You can get a cheap SDR for a few bucks and an antenna for about the same. The rest is software and ingenuity.


The Drop Drive from Final Space, just because it’s so amazingly silly. XD


I have, and you’re absolutely correct. There’s shades of Tribes in the momentum mechanics and something about them tickles my pathfinding brain something fierce. My biggest request on top of yours would be a less-punishing endless mode so I can play around with the maps and builds more leisurely.
Misread that as “Midwest Counties”.
