File this under probably good news - the problem with running a modern-day Stasi: Anti-government hackers have stolen all the data collected by the Belarus secret police. (Current Time)

The article mentions the personal data of government officials, and passport data for the entire country, but it goes beyond that: Government phone calls, security footage from police cameras, the government's complete propaganda database, a huge volume of tapped private phone calls, and a complete log of the activities of every government informant.

They’ve also downloaded the last 10 years of emergency calls history which contains all personal details of regime supporters who reported their coworkers and neighbours for wearing white-red-white colours and similar “crimes”. 3/6 pic.twitter.com/KCtxA3gvW2

Intel's Arrow Lake will target AMD's Zen 5. (WCCFTech)

The new chip with have up to 14 cores and 2560 graphics shaders and show up in, um, 2024 maybe.
Apple was planning to encrypt cloud backups but dropped the plan after the FBI bitched at them. (Reuters)

So... It's all just sitting there wide open like a Belarusian police station?
Don't buy QNAP storage devices, I said. Stick to Synology, I said. They're relatively secure, I said. Well, fuck, I said. (Bleeping Computer)

This doesn't seem to be too severe, just that there aren't enough safeguards against brute-force guessing weak passwords. A secure system will lock accounts for, say, 15 minutes after a few failed logins, and apparently these don't.
Chinese scientists report having created an amorphous carbon compound - basically carbon-based glass - that is harder and stronger than natural diamond. (National Science Review)

Natural diamonds have flaws and are softer than artificial ones, so this doesn't mean that the new substance is the hardest known.

10 I had bought one of the less expensive Iphones 2 years ago to give it a try. My provider gives you 30 days to return it. I returned it in 20.

It seemed that no matter what I tried, It didn't want to sync with my computer calendar which is the main reason I wanted to try it.

And it seemed like every time I tried to use it for photos or browsing, it would warn me that I was running out of space on the cloud,

Do you want to buy more space?

14 Back in my web hosting days I had a Venezuelan client who would often have me help troubleshoot his site. I never paid any attention to what people had going on their websites. 1000 clients, 10,000 websites, I'm not clicking around being nosey, and it doesn't pay. Occasionally a complaint would come in. If it wasn't an overt illegal activity, I ignored it or passed it along to whoever my customer was. But long story short, I come to notice that this guy had uploaded to my server in Indiana what looked like the Venezuela police database, with a ton of information that our CIA would like to have just for the sake of having it. It never went past the thought stage though. FK the CIA.

97 Is there some kind of market for vegetarians pretending to eat meat?

Vegetarians are a dime a dozen now, so the virtue signaling and the special attention one gets from telling everyone you meet what eating disorder you proudly have has lost its impact.

Within that segment are people who are not satisfied with their own self flagellation and cultish devotion to poor diet, they are evangelists, because misery loves company. They figure that you are too stupid to know the difference and that their stupid ideas will have merit if adopted by a wider audience.

Two different pathologies expressed using a common mechanism - refusal to accept animal based protein as an essential nutrient.

98 When visiting the grocery store, products with the words 'plant based' remain untouched. Nobody buys it. I doubt even vegans buy it.

104 If you can't cook a delicious meal with no animal products, you're just not a very good or imaginative cook.

Also, i don't particularly like parsnips or turnips. So I'm not going out of my way to frankenstein up a pork-chop based turnip. Why would i want to waste food i want emulating food i don't like and don't want?

109 "Is there some kind of market for vegetarians pretending to eat meat?"

When I was visiting my sister, she served me some veggie-based breakfast "sausages" without telling me what they were. I must confess, they fooled me - I thought they were pretty good. Of course, breakfast sausage is so heavily spiced that it's hard to taste the meat in them, in any event. And nobody eats breakfast sausage for its nutrition! So, if the price was comparable to meat, I'd consider picking them up - and I speak as an omnivore who feasted on hickory-smoked pork last weekend.
