Maybe the passengers tried to inflate the life vests the way the flight attendant demonstrated: by blowing into the life vest's inflation tube while holding it about 20 centimeters away.

While the Linux kernel is open source, making it easier for AI systems to detect bugs, proprietary closed-source software has even more reason to worry.
AI is advancing rapidly and will become increasingly capable of analyzing machine code directly to uncover vulnerabilities and defects.
And unlike open-source projects, there won't be a large community ready to help identify, fix, and review those issues.
The clock is ticking...

Europe should, of course, thank Trump for making it realize that its dependence on the United States can be dangerous.
But why only now? France and Europe have had cloud infrastructure for years...
Entrusting sensitive data to the United States has always carried risks, given that Airbus is Boeing's largest competitor.

Submission + - Windows 10: "the most secure Windows ever"

I know that recommending OpenWrt to the general public is unlikely to gain much traction, which is why I'm posting it here instead.
Slashdot readers (and from other more technical sites) may take an interest in it and give it a try.

The 3 is Qualcomm, unfortunately. The 4 uses a MediaTek Filogic platform and should eventually be OpenWRT compatible (after release).

Have you seen the specs of the Flint 2 compared to other home routers?
Anyway Flint 3 / 3e is available, and Flint 4 is upcoming.
I use the Flint 2 and it's a beast + with its DDR4 1 GB / eMMC 8 GB (which is much more than most routers), any OpenWRT module can be installed.

As usual:
- install OpenWRT (be sure to purchase an OpenWRT compatible router)
- configure it to DROP packets on closed ports (default is REJECT, that informs the 'hacker' that, while the port is closed, there is a device at this address)
