nice, but who benefits from it?...this week we experienced a "dark lull" over here...there was neither wind nor sunshine... environmentally harmful gas and coal power plants had to step in to maintain the power supply...additionally, expensive (nuclear) electricity had to be purchased from abroad...in contrast, during summer there's an abundance of solar power, resulting in surplus electricity having to be fed into foreign grids for a fee...practical electricity storage solutions don't exist yet...as a result, we have the highest electricity prices in Europe and possibly worldwide (approximately 35 cents/kWh)...thanks, nuclear phase-out...thanks, Merkel...

In the video, right now it's being sold to energy companies. Probably be a while until
other companies make their breakthroughs and sell to the public so we can actually
cut the damn cord from those energy companies. Next we need a better way to store that
energy. They have been working on new batter technologies too. Moving away from Lithium.
Sodium-ion batteries, Zinc-manganese oxide batteries, solid state batteries and a few others.
Question is will I see those benefits in my lifetime or you guys the next or next generation get all the benefits.

"Dark energy" is apparently...changing.

On to the next theory woohoo..

[boredjedi]

Dark energy and dark matter. Look into the void that is
changing all that. Our galaxy resides in a giant void that's
skewed all measurements making it appear there's something
there we can't detect but there really isn't.

One of the biggest mysteries in science—dark energy—doesn't actually exist, according to researchers looking to solve the riddle of how the universe is expanding.

Computer Technology

Looks like I'm in trouble. The US government wants to ban my router. TP-Link.
I think I'm safe, hacker wise, because I replaced the TP-Link's firmware with
Openwrt. That was fun a process in of itself heh. Think I got the router in 2016.
Didn't replace the firmware until much later though. Not many manufacturers allows you
to replace the firmware which is why TP-Link routers are popular. It allows firmware replacement.
Not many normal people will be doing that especially government agencies.

This is the best video out there about this issue from a authentic Hacker.

The conclusion and the meat of the issue starts at 23:05
And yes to get into all the high level functions is just Name: admin Password:1234
It's like that brief case scene in Space Balls.

And at 5:19 that's the kind of stuff I love. The getting down and dirty with the hardware.

No, it doesn't at all. It's a brand new paper with a new theory that is neither LCDM nor MOND. Read the article. It's about time passing at different speeds in empty areas than in matter dense areas. What was perceived as acceleration is actually just more time passing, and things moving farther apart over that time, in low gravity areas like voids because time runs faster there.


An excerpt:


One of the biggest mysteries in science—dark energy—doesn't actually exist, according to researchers looking to solve the riddle of how the universe is expanding.

Their analysis has been published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society Letters.

For the past 100 years, physicists have generally assumed that the cosmos is growing equally in all directions. They employed the concept of dark energy as a placeholder to explain unknown physics they couldn't understand, but the contentious theory has always had its problems.

Now a team of physicists and astronomers at the university of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand are challenging the status quo, using improved analysis of supernovae light curves to show that the universe is expanding in a more varied, "lumpier" way.

The new evidence supports the "timescape" model of cosmic expansion, which doesn't have a need for dark energy because the differences in stretching light aren't the result of an accelerating universe but instead a consequence of how we calibrate time and distance.

It takes into account that gravity slows time, so an ideal clock in empty space ticks faster than inside a galaxy.

The model suggests that a clock in the Milky Way would be about 35 percent slower than the same one at an average position in large cosmic voids, meaning billions more years would have passed in voids. This would in turn allow more expansion of space, making it seem like the expansion is getting faster when such vast empty voids grow to dominate the universe.

Professor David Wiltshire, who led the study, said, "Our findings show that we do not need dark energy to explain why the universe appears to expand at an accelerating rate.

"Dark energy is a misidentification of variations in the kinetic energy of expansion, which is not uniform in a universe as lumpy as the one we actually live in."

Seems odd that company would expose login interfaces on the WAN side, especially with a preset password. Normally you only expose login interfaces on the LAN side, other than offering a VPN connection with a login for that.

I think the main concern with TP-LINK is that the Chinese government has access to the company.
