Oh, I think I see whats being discussed here. Basically, it could be used to obscure activities from electronic surveillance of local actions, but not from someone observing actions by watching over your shoulder.

Thanks

I am sorry to ask this, but I think that I must be missing something... Do you mean that you can use spice to hide what you're doing on a PC by... Using another PC remotely via spice?

I use proxmox regularly and I'm having a difficult time understanding how I could use the built-in spice client to hide anything I'm doing.

Here are some neat neutrino facts:

  • Neutrinos are incredibly difficult to detect.
  • There are many neutrino sources, although supernovae may be the most prevalent with 99% of energy released as neutrinos vs 1% as visible light.
  • Our sun radiates about 2% of its energy as neutrinos.
  • They travel at the speed of light and rarely interact with normal matter. So rarely, in fact, that 99.99% of neutrinos would pass through a 10km-thick slab of lead.
  • Most neutrinos pass through the entire earth without hitting a thing.
  • 10^21^ nuetrinos pass through each 1" x 1" area of your body per second and, on average, you have a 25% lifetime chance of interaction with a neutrino particle.

Who knows what will be discovered!

Also keep in mind that employees of companies that release closed source software are obligated to keep secret any gaping security vulnerabilities. This obligation usually comes with heavy legal ramifications that could be considered "life ruining" for many of us. e.g. Loss of your job plus a lawsuit.

Often, none of the contributors to open source software are associated with each other and therefore have no obligation to keep discovered vulnerabilities a secret. In fact, I would assume that many contributors also actively use the software and have a personal interest in getting security vulnerabilities fixed.

I enjoyed watching that clip very much! Thanks for sharing it.

Locksmith here. In a pinch, I've ground the back of a jigsaw blade down, leaving just the teeth on the blade (short enough to fit above the key). Jigsaw blades, especially those intended for metal, are hardened and will easily bite into just about any key, giving enough leverage to pull out the broken piece.

My guess was wrong! My photo was also taken from Mt. Lemmon in Tucson. Great pic, BTW!

The landscape in your photo immediately reminded me of a photo I took in 2014, although I'm betting that yours was taken much closer to Phoenix than mine was.
