Hello #denmark ! I've recently been wondering about something from an #infosec perspective: what mischief is possible if you know someone's name and full CPR number (but no access to MitID et al.)? The only thing I can think of right now is that you could go to a pharmacy and buy that person's prescriptions. But I feel like that can't be all - where else do you use the CPR number alone, without any second factor?
@AndrzejWasowski ... og i alle banegårde 🤷
God damnit we're 100% on track for the shitty-ass discount dystopia from "Elysium", aren't we... 🤬
@fribbledom If I ever experience that in a command line tool (*), I'll move to a cave 🫣
(*) npm and related crap doesn't count, I sort of expect this there already... 🙄
Since the yellow wire was labelled "T", I guessed it might be a temperature sensor. Some multimeter probing and blowing air on the remains of the original battery protection circuit later, I was now pretty confident that it was indeed connected to a 10 kOhm NTC resistor. For testing, I put a regular 10k resistor between ground and "T", and now it's charging again 😁👍
Update about fixing worn-out lithium batteries: the battery in my headphones was unexpectedly connected with 3 wires (red/yellow/black), and of course I managed to destroy the tiny protection circuit when removing the old battery 😖
I wasn't able to order an exact replacement anywhere, so I went with a standard square-ish LiPo battery with two-wire JST connector, but it wouldn't charge with the yellow wire disconnected. (1/x)
@jaseg Good point. I feel my horrible hack with the bolt and the gas burner luckily didn't do much damage, the top of the cell still got barely warm to the touch, but if I actually went at them with a 100W iron, that might look different 😬
My wife was having salad for dinner and the dog absolutely wanted to try some, which resulted in the following soundtrack:
*whine*
*whine*
<wife reaches down with bit of salad>
*chomp*
*chew*
*chew*
*spit*
*huff*The indignation at the end was palpable 😁
The plus poles could still be soldered normally with some patience and the iron cranked up to 11, but for the minus poles (i.e. the metal can), I ended up heating a stainless steel bolt with the gas burner until red-hot and quickly using that to "solder" before it cooled. Did not burn down the house, counting that as a win. 🫣
I'm either getting a spot welder now, or the kind of soldering iron that needs three-phase power. Haven't decided yet.
Learned a valuable lesson today: while it is certainly _possible_ to rebuild a Li-Ion battery pack from 18650 cells without a spot welder, it is by no means _desirable_.
Oh boy what a slog. 😖
Mechanic: Resurrection (Netflix, 2016).
In short: this is the Hitman movie they should have made in the first place. A bunch of nasty weapon dealers get disposed of in very creative ways, and Jason Statham even looks the part 👌
Certainly better than "Hitman: Agent 47" (cf. https://hci.social/@floe/113392757423335697). Could just as well do without the shoehorned-in love story, though.
6/10.
@cmconseils I think this is the first joke I've ever seen that needs ligatures 👌
The Equalizer 1-3 (Netflix, 2014/18/23).
Ex-CIA black ops dude decides to use his "special set of skills" for good and cuts a bloody path of vengeance through 1) the Russian mafia, 2) some corrupt CIA ex-colleagues, and 3) the Camorra in Sicily.
Part 1 is mostly just bad guys getting sliced up by the dozen, 6/10.
Part 2 has a decent bit of backstory, 7/10.
Part 3 is a rehash of 1 & 2, just in Italy. 🤷 6/10.
If I want to host the occasional video call with people who only have access to a browser, what options would I have without hosting my own e.g. BigBlueButton instance? Are there any open servers (or something else)?
@bert_hubert Very interesting, thanks! It seems there is a tiny offset of perhaps +1-2 W on the guest machine?
@ennolenze Das wäre wohl das bestmögliche Ergebnis... aber beim ersten Teil habe ich Zweifel (die IAEA scheint ja keine erhöhte Strahlung gemessen zu haben, also würde ich vermuten, dass überhaupt kein spaltbares Material mehr vor Ort war?)
@GyrosGeier Ah sheesh. COVID? Get well soon.
