At least if you are in the USA they do keep epinephrine in the medical kits onboard. It’s an FAA requirement

That’s why I said I’m sure it does exist but based on it only freezing the computer until you reboot it that’s not useful for hackers doing it to make money and doesn’t seem that useful for disruption unless of course you do hack a bigger ad network then I could see it legitimately being disruptive rather than a slight nuisance. It definitely should be fixed though, it’s crazy it’s gone so long with no fix

I just don’t think people are doing malicious ads like that. Like I’m sure it exists but like what’s the point? If you are the malicious person you pay money for ads to freeze someone’s computer and that’s it? It’s not even like you would gain anything from it

As far as I’m aware if you are talking about the Kinzhal it’s a quasi-ballistic missile not really a true hypersonic missile so it’s easy to intercept. They also claim a range of 2000km but that includes the airplane’s range.

By hoodies do you mean the cotton ones with fleece linings or a lightweight breathable one? If it’s a thicker cotton one I can’t imagine wearing that in summer
