Love Primitive Technology but that food looks pretty bad 😆
The good news is, a lot of old secrets won't really matter anymore by the time we have quantum computers that can break the encryption. There will obviously be a big impact on information that was encrypted just before we get a working quantum computer that can crack modern crypto.
In cryptography discussions, I feel like we're usually implying (or even saying out loud) that the encryption is secure for a sufficient amount of time and computer power. Perhaps people outside of cryptography don't know it, but I think there is a reasonable expectation that encrypted communications could be decrypted at some point in the future. We just hope it's sufficiently far enough away (or difficult enough) to not be a problem.
Honestly as soon as we get some good post-quantum crypto, we'll probably want to switch over to it asap, even if good quantum computers are still far out, just to help alleviate some of this problem. Of course, I imagine we're still going to be finding new things once the technology is real and being used. Let's hope the post-quantum cryptography algorithms we come up with actually are strong against a sufficiently large quantum computer.
Yeah "gif" has basically become a common noun like escalator at this point.
It's even notified on the Wikipedia page for gif, in the third paragraph: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIF
Sounds like a lot of work. I have no idea how heavy a ship's anchor is, but I imagine it would be hard to throw any significant distance.
Not really on board with pageants but congrats to her.
I use gimp but OP isn't wrong. Doing a stroke on text is mindless in Photoshop and very convoluted in gimp.

The video recording shows animal behavior. Not the urination lol.
I think it's funny. There's an American trope of young boys getting a Davy Crockett hat for Christmas. The joke is that this is the first time it happened, with the actual hat of Davy Crockett.
This is true. There are some projections that show area more accurately, or shape of landmasses, etc.
For example:
- Dymaxion (less distortion)
- Authagraph (approximately equal area)
Many map projections do one thing well at the cost of sacrificing others. For example, the popular Mercator projection (which you'll see in many US schools and textbooks) is well suited for marine navigation but is exceptionally distorted the closer you get to the poles.

I will say I kinda like it when the QR code allows you to order directly to your table. It's nice to not have to talk to the server if you don't want to and it makes splitting the bill a non-issue.
Is banning them from lobbying sufficient?
What if someone retired from politics and then works for Shell and pays for a free weekend getaway to the Bahamas for a Congress member? Or for their "friend"?
Sounds like we need strict laws around what is lobbying
