My pubes glow with the light of ten thousand radiant suns.

If you're looking for something amiss you'd notice a microphone. Unless you really, really, really knew your shit something like this could be essentially invisible even if you disassembled it.
I try to shop locally. There is SO MUCH shit that you just can't buy in person. It's not possible.
I recently wanted a raspberry pi. I'm in a large Canadian city and literally no one sells them. You can only get them online. It's one example but it's a thing.
I really don't understand why people like those games. I don't find them fun at all. And the micro transactions are so fucking obnoxious.
This kind of stuff is SIGNIFICANTLY more alluring when you're dealing with an air gapped pc.
Interdict the mouse and modify so that it drops the usb, pair with an sdr and a specially modified usb plug to exfiltrate any data picked up, the user is none the wiser, you've grabbed whatever info you're after, and you never even need to physically access the air gapped pc.
It's elaborate but if you're targeting an air gapped pc or network then elaborate is necessarily going to be the name of the game.
Put your mouths on my genitals, Microsoft.
Shocking.
It's almost like the utility of language learning models isn't in being shoehorned into fuckjng everything.
Go figure.
No arguments.
I would add that people's unwillingness to understand or care about security risks does nothing to alter the importance of being aware of them, but I'm well aware that expecting anyone to give a shit about cybersecurity is pissing into the wind.
I'd agree with the broad thrust of your comment that this isn't exactly screaming "panic now, the end is nigh".
Being aware of vulnerabilities like this is important nonetheless.
The nature of side channel attacks like this are that they're incredibly difficult to spot and mitigate. This one does seem rather elaborate in that it requires software running on a pc but the attack you mentioned with the processor is decidedly stealthier. Just like timing attacks with fans, tempest style attacks - this stuff happens, and from a consumer pov if someone can interdict a package you order from Amazon and alter it then you'd never even know anything was even happening.
Is this happening a lot? Probably exceedingly rarely. Is it a risk most people have to worry about? No. Is it a risk nonetheless? Yes.
All I'm saying is that it's important to be aware of the risks if you care about security.
This really isn't worthless.
The chances someone may use it against you may be low but a committed attacker against a secure target will rely on stuff like this.
It's more in the realm of espionage than stealing your credit card number but this shit happens.
I have socks can only be worn inside out sensory issues. The same is evil. The seam cannot touch my toe. Get the seam away from me, the seam is like nails on a chalkboard, if I feel the seam all I can think about is the seam, the wiggly, stupid, always there, annoying, ever-present seam. Fuck you, seam.
But if I'm at home I'm naked. Just straight up.like, not no socks, no clothing at all
