Cendyne @cendyne.dev · 08/09/2026Pumps and motors in industry and infrastructure have control loops and fail-safes. And they're on a realtime public network. 010
Cendyne @cendyne.dev · 08/09/2026The "if you spend too long the fire wall will notice you" might become possible in a few years at a compute premium that most won't pay. 110
Cendyne @cendyne.dev · 07/09/2026Watch dogs is, in some ways absurd. In other ways it's "why we can't have nice things" and folks need to be held accountable. Alas capitalism has shown it cannot hold abuse plans negligence in check. 110

Cendyne @cendyne.dev · 07/09/2026Can you? Can you really own a passkey? Can you own a password?

Cendyne @cendyne.dev · 05/09/2026I have sinned in other ways. One of my old laptops had such a bad 2.5" hard drive that its own heat caused the CPU to throttle. The solution was ice in a partially water filled mason jar (condensation too) that would sit on the laptop ON TOP of where the hard drive was in the case. 120
