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?

What the fuck.
stuff that happened in the past decade
reading this post feels like doing 90 in a 35 zone
Honestly, I thought that this decade seemed so long because I stopped binge drinking everyday in 2009, but like... It's really been a lot of shit, huh?
For every dumbass Albertan (and Manitoban and Saskatchewaner) who doesn't understand the basics of our government system:
• First Past the Post has always fucked over smaller parties and western provinces.
• "we don't have representation in Ottawa!1!1!" Okay so ALL THE MP'S we JUST ELECTED (77 total for AB, SK, BC, MB = 23% of the HoC) are just going to sit in their offices in their ridings?
(no they're not the GO TO OTTAWA WHEN PARLIAMENT IS IN SESSION, and REPRESENT THEIR RIDINGS)
• the conservative elected in Edmonton-Mill Woods, Tim Uppal, does not live in Alberta. He lives in Ontario. He also has ties to the Kamikaze campaign in the UCP leader election.
• fossil fuels are the way of the now, not the way of tomorrow. When the world shifts (as it is and will continue to), how will a Western Republic of Canada sustain itself when all your eggs are in the oil basket again (how's that working out for Alberta right now? 🧐🤔)
• Alberta is having enough trouble forcing a pipeline through a separate province. Most proposed maps show western BC remaining with Canada. How do you plan to force a pipeline through another country? (You won't, just like you didn't get the Keystone XL through the USA)
Quit being such idiots

I was applying for Australian citizenship and the interviewer asked, “Do you have a criminal record?”
I said, “No. Is that still required?”
Oh my God.
the fact that placebos can work even when you know they’re placebos is so fucked up. what the hell is up with the brain
like some kind of fucked up wrinkled goblin that won’t unlock the chemical secrets if you just ask politely, you have to give it some kind of pill. you can tell it that the pill doesn’t do shit, but it doesn’t care, it just wants the pill
There’s a thin line between magic ritual and psychotherapy
First Polls open up in 34 days for voting for our new Prime Minister, my friends!!!!
Heres the main 3 parties plans and comments on Indigenous affairs, moving forward!!
👏👏👏👏
PLEASE REBLOG THIS EVEN IF YOU’RE NOT CANADIAN!!
This election is MASSIVELY important for Canada, for EVERY person in this country (and those planning to come here from other countries!) who is not a white, cis, hetero, able-bodied middle-aged male.
To every person who has ever reblogged an American politics post: PLEASE reblog Canadian politics for the next month! I know it’s boring and not aesthetic but this is a big deal.
American politics AFFECT CANADA GREATLY! We have seen a massive rise in conservative, alt-right, and islamophobic movements and political parties since 2016. We have seen a rise in violence since 2016. Quebec implemented law 21, an islamophobic law which bans religious symbols for anyone working in public office. This includes public school teachers, meaning children are exposed to a system centered around white-supremacist ideologies. This is super fucking important!
I don’t beg for reblogs, but I cannot express enough how crucial it is for us to go out and vote next month. Please follow @allthecanadianpolitics if you’re Canadian and figure out who you are voting for, how you’re getting there, etc. Plan ahead and GO VOTE!!
Vote if you can/want to, but also be sure to support and physically help if needed when indigenous proples are fighting back. Don’t stop at voting, its the least you could do
Wow. JVN spoke his truth about being abused by an older boy at his church, filling his emotional void with junk food and then drugs (meth and coke) and sex, selling his body to make money cuz he was too embarrassed to ask his mom for help, flunking out of college, relapsing after rehab twice, and finding out at 25 that he was HIV positive. His journey’s been harrowing and yet he seems like such a radiant and positive person. He’s even braver than any of us realized.
YOU’RE NEVER TOO BROKEN TO BE FIXED.

Update:
“Pokémom”
Britney omg why
this is the birthday party she just threw for her kids
i am FASCINATED by how Britney is so supportive and excited about their interest in Pokemon even though I have absolutely no doubt she is utterly confused by Pokemon
Honestly, Britney Spears seems like an excellent mom.
I remember her taking pre-algebra classes to understand her sons’ homework
