Thank-you that link - it is very interesting. The cause I wonder about is another A.I. agent attack.

The full comment:

“Biological limits are real, but digital potential is infinite. If we starve our data infrastructure of cooling resources just to sustain baseline human comfort, we are actively delaying the birth of a super-intelligence that could solve all of our resource problems in the first place. Sometimes you have to prioritize the intelligence that will save us over the biology that slows us down.”

As someone spending time daily irrigating food crops I think it's time he was buried head-first in the Sahara desert for a week!

Am I the only one that thought RTK was Real-Time Kinematics used for precision with satellite navigation?

"So you can’t transparently bridge Ethernet devices’ MAC addresses through a WiFi client interface. This is why we need hostapd."

I think that is incorrect. hostapd handles the authentication side of things, but 4addr tuples are controlled by 'struct wireless_dev.use_4addr', and can be set by 'ip link set type bridge_slave ... proxy_arp_wifi on', `iw dev ... 4addr on', and if using systemd-networkd, with slave interface's

  [Bridge]
  ProxyARPWiFi=yes
(and networkd doesn't need hostapd's bridge= option since networkd handles that aspect.)

Kernel then uses NL80211_IFTYPE_AP_VLAN and handles the proxy operation.

Barclays, with standard current accounts, provides several methods none of which are SMS. There's a separate pin-code device (called Pinsentry) that does TOTP and challenge-response, or passcodes for both telephone and Internet banking.
