What’s encrypting your internet surfing? An algorithm created by a supercomputer? Well, if the site you’re visiting is encrypted by the cyber security firm Cloudflare, your activity may be protected by a wall of lava lamps.

Cloudflare covers websites for Uber, OKCupid, & FitBit, for instance. The wall of  lamps in the San Francisco headquarters generates a random code. Over 100  lamps, in a variety of colors, and their patterns deter hackers from accessing data.  

As the lava lamps bubble and swirl, a video camera on the ceiling monitors their unpredictable changes and connects the footage to a computer, which converts the randomness into a virtually unhackable code.

Codes created by machines have relatively predictable patterns, so it’s possible for hackers to guess their algorithms, posing a security risk. Lava lamps, add to the equation the sheer randomness of the physical world, making it nearly impossible for hackers to break through.

You might think that this would be kept secret, but it’s not. Simply go in and ask to see the lava lamp display. By allowing people to affect the video footage, human movement, static, and changes in lighting from the windows work together to make the random code even harder to predict.

So, by standing in front of the display, you add an additional variable to the code, making it even harder to hack. Isn’t that interesting?

I mean why even have a trial? Let’s just flip a coin and see what happens

So the Star Trek account (run by CBS I assume), has posted two trailers for brand new Short Treks. Both are animated, and it looks like they are aimed at a younger audience.

However, even tho the shorts have not premiered yet, there is already a group of angry, gross nerd baby-men (and women too sadly) already calling it sh*t, garbage, declaring "Star Trek" to be "dead" and falling back on TNG (a classic comparison coming from people who don't understand what Trek is about) to show how "The Mighty Has Fallen".

Like my dudes... I actually feel sorry for you all.

Like I feel sorry at how entitled you are, how you are willing to throw a temper tantrum over a content made FOR KIDS, because you think CBS should cater only to your personal needs.

I feel sorry at how much you hate kids and kids' media, that you are willing to jump into the comments section to spill all that bile and virtriol onto, let me say this again, trailers for two shorts, and ranting about how CBS is "ruining the franchise".

I'm just sorry. I can't even comprehend what it must feel like... to be that much of an ass-clown in public spaces while still thinking you're somehow a decent human being.
