I am very curious about this little crescendo
a while back, either in here or in yospos, someone posted about a raspberry pi treasure box that you had to hack to open and it had a lock and servo type thing.

did I make that up? anyone know where I can find it or anything similar?

Rather than rolling their own nonsense they could use something that was designed by real cryptographers, written by competent developers, formally verified and tested by security people... But nah, let's just write our own in node, with bitcoin.

This is a hallmark of cranks. It goes way beyond Not Invented Here syndrome and stems from a deep narcissism that they feel they do not need to bother with studying things that exist because they couldn't possibly be relevant to their unique ground-breaking unprecedented work.

This thread talks a lot about amateur cryptographers, obviously, but cranks exist in pretty much all fields. Eripsa is mostly a macroeconomics crank, but his fascination with technology solving social problems often leads him down these weird paths.

I was paranoid and factory reset my phone and then installed a vpn when I went to china. didn't really matter since they didn't allow google anyway, I hardly used my phone at all on the trip

e: should probably mention i also went into tibet including some of the militarized areas so it wasn't totally unfounded paranoia

if you look white will it really matter? im travelling to europe for a month soon and i haven't really worried about this. i was more worried about getting my passport issued (i didn't have one, never left the country) before the inauguration.

yes, if you are from the wrong country. I'm white as hell, but born in iran.

the last 3 times I flew to the us from canada I got ever more increasingly hosed up questions about this fact, including being asked "when was the last time I was there?" and "did I have any plans on going back?" granted that list time was 2009 ish
