You sound frustrated with the situation and how none of the paths you can think of seem viable. It also sounds like you feel alone and disconnected because you feel you can’t talk to the people close to you about this issue…

One thing you could try would be to write the problem down, park it for right now and try to do something that makes you feel better, or something that helps you feel connected to the people close to you.

It won’t directly solve the problem, but it might break you out of walking in circles. Sometimes the brain comes up with better ideas when you give it a bit of time

Bombing campaigns are surprisingly ineffective at winning wars. Iran could possibly kill some people but it would be very far from winning that way. Not in an hour, not in a decade

If American showers allowed adjustment of both pressure and temperature like most modern European ones, you wouldn’t have this issue

the in depth technical details

TL;DR; sigalarm handler calls syslog which isn’t safe to call from a signal handler context.

Their example exploit needed about 10k attempts to get a remote shell so it’s not fast or quiet, but a neat find regardless

Yeah, the 20th least polluting country is near 1000x worse than the estimated CO2 footprint in the article

You’re right… The “more than 20 countries” thing, is about 1000x away from the real number too, so I guess they dropped a “kilo” somewhere and somehow didn’t react to getting an obviously absurd result

This is hugely incorrect

… equivalent to 281,315 metric tons of CO2. This is roughly the same quantity of emissions that 75 coal-fired power plants produce in a year, and it exceeds the annual emissions of 20 individual countries and territories.

A single medium sized (1MW) coal power plant outputs about 6.3 million metric tons CO2 per year, so the comparison is three magnitudes off

I wouldn’t trust any other numbers from that site without verification
