Prompt: space station on the moon, lots of glass, colorful inside, grey outside, earth in background -- Bing Image Creator

Theme

With all the news about humans travelling into space for fun, I thought it would be time for a challenge about space.

Ready to unleash your creativity? Show us your vision of humanity’s future in space! Whether it’s futuristic space stations, colonized planets, or deep-space exploration, we want to see how YOU imagine humans conquering the stars.

Submit your best AI-generated artwork and be part of this exciting journey beyond Earth. I'm sure you can do a lot better than my space station on the moon ;)

Like previous entries, take your time! Some of you can be super fast (me included) and the early bird often catches the worm. So for this challenge I’m subtracting a point for anyone who posts within 24 hours. It's not ideal, and I know it's not something everybody likes, but we should settle that outside the contest I think.

Rules

  • Follow the community’s rules above all else

  • One comment and image per user

  • Embed image directly in the post (no external link)

  • Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun and learning)

  • Posts that are tied will both get the points

  • The challenge runs for 7 days from now on

  • Down votes will not be counted

  • Scores

  • At the end of the challenge each post will be scored:

Prize Points
Most upvoted +3 points
Second most upvoted +1 point
Third most upvoted +1 point
OP's favorite +1 point
Last two entries (to compensate for less time to vote) +1 point
Prompt and workflow included +1 point
Post within 24 hours -1 point

The winner gets to pick the next theme. As always, have fun everyone! Previous entries

I don't think that this article is fair and objective. It seems biased towards tesla.

Doesn't look too bad for me

I think the cost of all the additional wiring and components would outweight the benefits.

What if the sun isn't shining? You would need a heat pump that can use AC and DC. What if the sun is shining, and the water is hot enough? Your PV would need DC cabling and a converter to AC to send power to the grid. And all these components would need some switches etc.

It's just easier to have all your home run on AC.

AFAIK completely without ads. This is the first sentence from the link I provided in my previous comment:

Meta will offer people in the EU, EEA and Switzerland the choice to pay a monthly subscription to use Facebook and Instagram without any ads

They want 10€ from EU citizens to not show ads, but it is doubtful that this is legal.

You're right, these are definitely some advanced topics. But no need to know everything yourself, if you stumble upon one of these topics during your research, you might want to post them here.

Yes, that is why many big tech companies have their european hq there.

Edit: Wikipedia on Ireland as a tax haven

I believe there are several Linux-related topics that could be valuable for this cybersecurity community. While I'm not a Linux expert, here are a few suggestions:

  • Security features in the Linux kernel: An overview of features like ASLR and cgroups, including their strengths and limitations.
  • Securing Linux servers: Practical guides, how-tos, and tools (e.g., Auditd, Sysdig) for hardening Linux systems.
  • Vulnerabilities and detailed writeups: Sharing in-depth analyses to learn from real-world mistakes. (But please, let's avoid posting every CVE. 😉)

You're right, Google released their vision in 2023, here is what it says regarding lifespan:

a reduction of TLS server authentication subscriber certificate maximum validity from 398 days to 90 days. Reducing certificate lifetime encourages automation and the adoption of practices that will drive the ecosystem away from baroque, time-consuming, and error-prone issuance processes. These changes will allow for faster adoption of emerging security capabilities and best practices, and promote the agility required to transition the ecosystem to quantum-resistant algorithms quickly. Decreasing certificate lifetime will also reduce ecosystem reliance on “broken” revocation checking solutions that cannot fail-closed and, in turn, offer incomplete protection. Additionally, shorter-lived certificates will decrease the impact of unexpected Certificate Transparency Log disqualifications.

If you measure from the surrounding area, the Mauna Kea is higher than Mt. Everest.

 

I have both done pentests and received pentest reports. My observation is that the perceived severity often varies between the tester and the customer.

 

Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

 

Nothing tells me more that you care about my privacy than sharing my data with hundreds or thousands of companies.

 

This is the major release of Cemu 2.1 with a cumulative changelog which includes the changes from all 93 experimental releases since Cemu 2.0.

This release also is the first release of Cemu on Linux that is not marked as experimental.

The release was a few days ago, I didn't notice until today.

 

Sadly, the support for passkeys is still lacking.

 

Anybody else working on the 2025 budget?

 

As AI image recognition advances, CAPTCHAs need to get more creative.

What are your best experiences with CAPTCHAs?

 

What is your favourite password rule?

 

Interestingly, the firewall got overload by the number of UDP packets and not by the bandwidth of traffic. See UDP Flooding on Wikipedia.

 

Please don't act like the german conservative party:

The CDU [german conservative party] lodged a criminal complaint against Wittmann after she told the party about a security vulnerability in the CDU-Connect election campaign app. (source)
