       Set of people who are all "We reverse engineered this CPU with an undocumented ISA and found a vulnerability that allowed us to flip a single bit in an HSE to obtain a key that allowed us to encrypt a payload that gave us arbitrary code execution on the ISS" and simultaneously also "It's literally impossible to prevent this single fucking guy from showing up at the event we run"

       @mjg59 i've always had the impression this is a group of people that struggles with boundaries so I guess it's consistent in a way

       @mjg59 the "logic" is that the guy would probably spend the same energy on circumventing any ban as they did on that CPU, so it's pointless to even try.Yes that was the actual argument I read today. *goes outside now to maybe see some trees*

       @mjg59 It's the same group who mockingly goes like a hot knife through butter through the government's "cyber security" and goes "oh yeah, we do exactly as much as the government requires for infection control, they know what's safe, we trust them" 🤷

       @mjg59 Sorry, but stupid take. Obviously the guys who are versatile in technology could solve that with some home-brewed surveillance technology and with more data surveying. But that is something most here do not condone.You can't one the one hand be against surveillance etc publicly, but then change your stance as soon as you could benefit from it.

       @mjg59 seems consistent to me, though.If we managed to break into the ISS why would anyone think this guy wouldn’t be able to break into our event?

       @mjg59 yes, but one of these actually is rocket science; a computer scientist unwilling to control his own rocket, while the other is just hacking...
