    Oh God

    tasty chocolate heaven

    I would die a happy man in that pile

    The other types are increasingly common too now. The dark chocolate ones, cherry ones and so forth. All with their super silly names.

    Thanks to Echo for posting this in the D&D chat thread.

    McAfee guy discovers way to hack wireless insulin pumps to kill people.
    The pumps use no encryption to conceal the content of their transmissions, and a vulnerability allowed Jack to discover the device's serial number. His software also overrides restrictions that normally prevent the pump from receiving wireless commands to increase dosages. Under normal conditions, the pumps issue a vibration or loud tone when dispensing a dosage, but Barnaby's attack disables the warning mechanism.

    Huh. I wonder how many people would push the "murder a random stranger without repercussions" button

  • RaneadosRaneados police apologist you shouldn't have been there, obviouslyRegistered User regular
    the devices were made 10 years ago, or more

    it's understandable that the level of technology has surpassed them

    I remember the similar pacemaker story, but I never heard of anyone getting murdered by it


    Hobnail: you can literally kill anyone right now without repercussions
    shoot a random person in the face, congratulations, you'll get away with it

    and this isn't exactly a "button" to do that, you have to have the specific goal in mind, be tech savvy enough to get it all together, and then complete a bunch of steps to accomplish it

  • HobnailHobnail Registered User regular
    Well yeah but you actually have to shoot someone in the face. Doing it remotely has got to make it easier, its apparantly a lot easier to set people on fire through a bombsight than in person, as it were.

    the less intimate it is, the easier it is

    they say it's easier to shoot someone than stab someone
    and easier still to operate a machine gun into a crowd
    and easier still to drop a bomb

    and that the difficulty only goes up again slightly when you get into the hundred-thousand range of deaths or so


    but to track down, inspect, and go through all the steps needed to actually mess with someone's insulin?

    I doubt it'll happen

    I like how judging from that trailer, they realized that a simple thought experiment provided about ten minutes worth of content and padded it out with every thing they could possibly think of

    is there a woman telepathically manipulating water at the end?

    Now I wonder what percentage of the population would push the button if there was actually some kind of reward for doing it. People seem pretty easy to talk into giving what they are told to believe are real electric shocks to strangers without one.

    that's not quite applicable because that experiment is about how people will obey an authority figure even if they're ordered to contradict their own personal morals

    still though I think a depressingly high number of people would hit the button

    And for no reward? Ehhh....25% say.

    I also feel the dirtiness of the child is relevant, I bet even the tamarinds frowned at that kid
