Not really. You'd need at least a measurement at each site before and after, as background levels will vary from place to place. And even so, they also vary with time.
And if your readings are so low that you have to subtract out the natural background to see them, they are pretty much harmless anyway.
"Keep telling myself that"? It's a trivially confirmable fact, and you confirmed it by linking the data sheet, so I don't know what you are on about.
And it is quite well matched to the Atmel. It would be pointless on a Raspberry Pi, which has a far more capable GPU built in. This is a GPU specifically built to allow low-spec microcontrollers to drive a graphical user interface.
You really should try to take a bit more time to look into it before trying to score points on the internet.
It's likely that the issues with DES would have been discovered sooner had they not been fixed, after all an actively used system is far more worthy of study than something thats been superseded and is no longer used.
That is nonsense. The fixed DES was identical to the original DES, with the expectation of a couple of seemingly arbitrary numbers. Nobody's going to stop researching DES because the NSA changed a couple of numbers. In fact, the opposite is far more likely.
There are plenty of higher-performance single board computers in this price class. Cheaper, even. This is just one more, with perhaps slightly better performance.
When somebody begins their argument with a link to Wikipedia, I always figure they are just parroting something something they read on the internet that they think makes them sound clever.
Most of those are ancient, and not representative of modern behaviour. And nobody involved wants to change them, so it's a moot point anyway.
And "native Americans" is not a name for any one specific group, so of course it is generic and artificial. Much more relevantly, we say "Inuit" rather than "eskimo".
Writing your password on a post-it note is much, much safer than most other things. At least that way you can pick a properly complicated password. If somebody is in your room and looking at the note, you have bigger problems anyway most of the time.
And as for end-point security, you should be worrying far more about whether your decryption software or OS is spying on you after you decrypt.
Say what one will about the NSA, they do have some of the very very best people when it comes to crypto, and the budget to design, build, or purchase whatever hardware is needed to implement what those people dream up.
It wasn't even the NSA that came up with differential cryptanalysis in the first place, it was IBM, and NSA made them keep it quiet.
We know pretty much what happened then, because it was mostly IBM doing it and keeping it secret, not the NSA. And your theory makes no sense at all, and no evidence of anything remotely similar being even possible has been found in the decades of research that has gone into DES since.
No, the guy who made the petition was way out of line for calling Linux "an approved partner of the NSA", and way out of his depth because he had no idea what the hell he was talking about.
Linus was just responding to an asshat, and went pretty easy on him.
There was no negotiation going on. There was a single obnoxious guy calling Linux "an approved partner of the NSA" and complaining about something he knew nothing about. He deserved what he got. In fact, Linus went pretty easy on him.

Well, no, they wouldn't. They stayed with the old connector for ages. They replaced it because it was getting too big.

This is not a computer. It's an add-on board.
Are you trying to make the argument that cops should never let anyone off with a warning?
Not to the lender, it wouldn't. Nobody is ever going to lend at negative interest rates, no matter how deflationary the currency.
Tell me, would you take out a loan of, say, 100 bitcoins?

They were making money off from other people's work.
Slashdot thinks this is awesome! Look at how people are worshipping Kim Dotcom like some kind of hero.
We've no real word in English to describe some alien from Betelgeuse Seven, though we might opt to say Betelgeusian.
We'd say that until we figured out how to talk to them, and once we did, we'd ask them what they want to be called and then use that.
If you believe a word the Daily Mail says, you're a fool.

Balloons don't waste helium, that's largely a misunderstanding. Balloon helium is recycled and impure and not good for anything but filling balloons.

Now, maybe. In the past, not.
That's how the legend goes, but as far as I've been able to tell that is not actually true.

I thought the current fashion among self-important people was to constantly talk about how little they care about iPhones.
