ummm... Plutonium in VERY small quantities IS highly toxic, radioactive and has an incredible half life. There is a LOT of it in spent reactor fuel and it's very difficult to reprocess.
There is NO FUD when it comes to spent reactor fuel. It's nasty like your ex-brother-in-law-who-hates-you.
The low level stuff from medical waste et al.. Yeah, not so much. But there is a reason even people who work witht he stuff are afraid of it. Only the execs aren't.
The thing to understand, is that while you CALL them oil companies, THEY think of themselves as energy companies and have been morphing themselves as rapidly as they can... Inventing and building renewables farms.
The Google "secret sauce" in this seems to be a "special" drill for putting in the wells for the ground loops.
In the the videos I've seen of this, the drill looks to be about 18 inches in diameter. this seems to claim a smaller diameter drill.
The primary reason people tend to not use heat pumps is they are electric and electricity from the utility is expensive. very cheap renewables (wind/solar) is what is required for this to be feasible.
I'm willing to bet against a rich mans fantasy that all the poor people will walk away from what they have in favor of spending money they don't have to replace what they do have.
Altering advertised routing paths has nothing to do with access control lists at the perimeter... Which is how this is done.
Every article I've been able to find on security testing of SS7 security has somewhere in it, thanks to a carrier or access provider for allowing them to perform testing INSIDE the network. I've done this work for 30 years and the perimeter policy has always "disallow unless specifically allowed from specific pre-specified location. period". In most instances I was involved in, IPSec tunnels were required as well.
That 1000 Euros AND serious vetting WILL get you in... But they'll know who you are and where you are.
This "flaw" is akin to Wells Fargo employees opening a credit card account in your name and saying you requested it. Yes, it is possible but improbable (I know Wells Fargo actually did do it).
In order to take advantage of this "flaw" they have to connect to what is for all intents and purposes an isolated network... You have get one of the Carriers or SS7 access providers to give you that access. It's not done casually.
The "hack" is the equivalent of calling what Wells Fargo did (opening credit card accounts for people who hadn't signed up for them) a hack. The 2fa "hack" seems to have been carried out by someone with trusted access to the ss7 network.
If one were to look at the long term history of the financial industry (going back to before wall street was wall street), you'd find bankers, stock brokers et al were inherently distrusted. Financial fraud is/was easy so they did it... Over and over and over.
This is why there has historically been heavy regulation and oversight.
The current mind set is that if it's NOT the end employer or a government agency just about anything is A-OK... It's never been tested in a court and until it is, private entities will continue to do as they damned well please. Hence Uber-gate like occurrences (I'm talking about running self operating machines without proper clearance "We don't HAVE to! Oops, yes we do. We're sorry").
sigh, we seem to have lost the idea that just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

And routing for sms to the handset is hijacked, how is routing for the voice path not also hijacked?
Something isn't kosher here.
You do that. I won't underwrite your insurance policy
Ok, the radiation it puts off for an incredible amount of time is extraordinarily toxic. does that make you happy?

nuclear has a long term waste problem... We have NO clue about solutions for that (keep out signs that will be understandable for millennia?)

to the company store!
Everything old is new again. sigh
Not on accident?
it becomes vulnerable?! WTF!
The NSA made selinux. Automatic backdoor!
Does anyone really think that was an accident?

I've seen this before. It's a variant of pump and dump... Except there is no dump.
When I see these, there is a presumption that the populace will simply abandon billions they have invested, collectively, in rolling stock.
Not gonna happen

He wasn't even the first... Just the most willing to break the law to do what he wanted todo... And the try to recast it as being "disruptive"
No, a RADAR detector listens for transmissions that exist.
Greyball is/was more like posting lookouts while performing a break in or other forbidden activity is in progress

If it did, we should junk our running and serviceable cars and buy the latest new shiny thing being offered Who cares what that costs?
What drugs are these people on?
just in general for diversity and to break the back of the whole "Bro..." culture.
Good on ya Linkedin!

far too easy to spend money and have it be useless
Follow the money. Who owns the theater chains? What do they own?
Watch this hand... I'll be picking your pocket with the other.
Before is it was in the multiple of hundreds a day. Now in the multiple of tens a day
it doesn't eliminate all, but it's cut my span significantly
If I'm right, and I have no indication one way or another, this is the canary of the dreaded student loan collapse
