Why don't you only keep things on your hard drive that you'd be proud for others to see? Also how do I pulverise my Google drive and clouds and stuff? I only just realised one drive had stolen my entire desktop and was keeping it at ms hq

WhatEvil posted:humidifying your home to keep the internal levels at 40-50% is actually good generally for respiratory health and also for combating dust mites. If you overhumidify then you can have issues I can't get my humidity that low, but I am glad to learn that this is bad for dust mites. Are they beaten more decisively at higher humidities, or is it all the same after 50%?

goddamnedtwisto posted:Degaussing and pulverisation to micron dust - something you can can hire a lorry to come around and do for you* - would require several world-changing (and possibly universe-changing depending on how much you think nanotechnology can bend the laws of physics) advances in technology to be recoverable, and is the way actual state-level actors, who presumably know exactly where the cutting edge is and go way, way past it, say you should destroy hard drives that contain stuff they don't want to risk other state-level actors getting their hands on. You can do all of that at the same time and the data is still recoverable.  Because nanotechnology can't change the laws of physics, nothing can. But yeah, zero it out, overwrite with random data, zero it out, you're firmly in the territory of extra-dedicated state level actors. Who probably had your motherboard bugged anyway.

endlessmonotony posted:You can do all of that at the same time and the data is still recoverable. Okay, go ahead and explain the mechanism by which you recover the contents of a hard drive that has been taken past its Curie point and shocked several times, just to take the least secure option of the one I mentioned. And I'm not sure why you think that nanotechnology thing is somehow *helping* your case here, because like I say you would need something not just far beyond the current state of the art in nanotechnology to reassemble a hard drive platter from micron dust - and to do it after a proper degaussing takes it into the realm of Maxwell's Demon. goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 22:21 on Feb 4, 2021 |

Collecting the data to run time backwards in a simulation is left as an exercise to the viewer. I did mention it with Descartes' demon, and it should be about as important a threat in your threat model.

You can't actually ever erase a hard drive because one day a super intelligent AI will exist capable of simulating the universe from first principles and eventually your hard drive with all its anime fan porn will come to exist in that simulation and the AI will blackmail you with it

I already want to go back and reread the Alan Moore Captain Britain stuff (The Daredevils in particular was a cool book because as well as including Moore's Cap and Miller's Daredevil you get Alan Moore writing about stuff. Like him going to a convention or him reviewing fanzines which was so loving cool). Don't know what filez means but theres a lot of comics here dunno if that helps https://readcomiconline.to/

Comrade Fakename posted:Did anyone clap for Captain Tom? I completely forgot, didn’t hear anyone outside, but when I looked at my phone I had a loving notification from Deliveroo telling me to clap?! What idiot thought that was appropriate? Despite turning down the fentanyl and propofol on all of the patients in the ITU I was working on and shouting at them to clap, not one of them even attempted. loving lazy, ungrateful bastards. My grandad, Chief Petty Officer Dogatron is not turning in his grave as he was a normal bloke who forgot all about his rank the minute he could and would be naturally suspicious about some posh oval office who couldn't.

One of my current medications has a 'DO NOT USE WITH GRAPEFRUIT' on it. And the reason I found mindblowing. Never knew grapefruit can cause you to overdose yourself on accident, killing people every year.

Mind you, one less item of fruit is a small price to pay for not wanting to die 300 days a year so I accept it. I remember looking into it & finding out bergamot had the same poo poo as grapefruit but wasn't mentioned on the label. So I asked my GP about it because I'd gotten into Earl Grey & she decided I was fine so

Oh dear me posted:I can't get my humidity that low, but I am glad to learn that this is bad for dust mites. Are they beaten more decisively at higher humidities, or is it all the same after 50%? Oh uh I guess I got the wrong end of the stick: quote:Dust mites grow best at 75-80% relative humidity, and they cannot survive when the humidity is below 50%. So I actually got given a leaflet saying "Keep humidity at 40-50% to combat dust mites and benefit respiratory health or something". I think the 40-50% range is the overall balance of the best since lower causes your nostrils to dry out and skin to crack etc. but I guess solely for dust mites lower is better.
