I have my own personal genealogy website, running on a small Armbian machine. It recently got hit by a scanning bot army from Huawei Cloud, also completely ignoring my robots.txt, so badly that I had to block all of their IP ranges at my router. This kind of behaviour makes me pine for the internet of the 90s. It wasn't fast, but it was fun.

It was an F-104 Starfighter IIRC.

... and you notify them, you always, 100% guaranteed, get the automated response that they didn't remove the content.

And it turned out more than a simple NAS. Epyc 7282 on a SuperMicro H11-SSL-I motherboard with 128GB ECC RAM, currently 5x8TB HDD in ZRAID, with a 32GB Optane drive as cache, 2x512GB (RAID-1) and 4x1TB (RAID-10) NVME SSDs (home and docker storage respectively). 10Gbit network, in a nice and quiet Fractal Design Define R5 case. Also used for virtualizing some regularly fired up environments.

[Belgium, so EU] My 2020 Toyota Corolla has speed sign recognition, but it keeps seeing speed stickers on the back of trucks (applied three next to one another) as actual speed limit signs. It also fails to recognize about 80% of end of speed zone signs. It furthermore fails to realize about 100% of the time that a speed limit sign only applies to the next intersection with a road coming from the right. The technology still leave TONS of room for improvement.

I can bet that government / law enforcement are drooling about this. This will be the almost ideal incarnation of Big Brother is Watching You. "When did the suspect search for information about X?" "Who where they in contact with from this date to that date?"

Submitter mistake in trying to edit the list from the T2 announcement: Alpha, Arc, ARM(64), Avr32, HPPA(64), IA64, Loongarch64, M68k, Microblaze, MIPS(64), Nios2, OpenRISC, PowerPC(64), RISCV(64), s390x, SPARC(64), SuperH, i486, i686, x86-64 and x32.

I think the innocent bystanders (passengers) getting killed may disqualify him. But on the other hand they chose to be there, so this rule might not apply.

Because lens flare.

Came here to say this.

Had a self-built computer that ran about 19 different operating systems over its lifetime, based on an ASUS P2B motherboard. ME was the only OS I could never get to run on it - always ended in a BSOD.

Given that Belgium has consistently had one of the highest IPv6 adoption rates of the world (top 3), I doubt we've suddenly regressed back to 31st place.

This nerd is 6'4", and falls in neither of those categories. 30 years of taiji has kept me in fairly good shape.

Colleague had forgotten to switch a Philips CD-i player from 110 volts to 220, and flipped on the power. There was a loud pop, followed by loud hissing, and very smelly thick white cloud spewed forth and quickly filled the whole room. The guy didn't even seem to have enough common sense to open up the windows, until I told him to do so. Then there was the story, a few years before that, of a whole crate of exploding Commodore 64s delivered to a local store. Each one would, when turned on, send keys flying through the room.
