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?

Only three Weeks....

PATETICH

I got over 200 tabs on for over 4 Months....that i'm goin to read and close one of those days.

(Probably not)

Today’s aesthetic: keeping the same tab open in your browser for three solid weeks because you’re definitely going to get around to reading and/or acting on whatever’s in it any minute now.

I cosplayed Edna Mode from The Incredibles at Holiday Matsuri and needless to say I spent the day hunting down characters with capes and getting irrationally angry at them

it is pretty annoying how the fandom erases shaggys flaws to make him into a uwu precious scoobie snack babie…like hes a coward that when push comes to shove isnt there to help out his friends lmao

I need of a little writing advice if you don’t mind. I’m writing a multi-chapter fanfic and there’s a big battle and I was wondering where should I go or search to find some interesting battle strategies? Like i got almost everything in mind the history the characters their backstories…etc, but i just need an exciting strategy or at least and advice of how to write such scenes? If you don’t know just please spread it I’m almost done with it. Thanks a lot in advance!

Yeah, I'd recommend checking out battle strategies as reference for yours, or even just inspiration. As for what to search for, I've never done big battle scenes but maybe checking out basic things like this Wiki entry

You could also look up scenes from films and novels with well-received battle scenes, just to see what they do and what you might want to incorporate into your scene!

Hero! Toga took me hostage and made me post this

Hey now, you’re an all star

listen to what I orchestrated

Ride like a Pirate

concept: a death god that is actually surprisingly supportive and on the side of the good guys, supporting actions and promoting policies that will lead to the kingdom growing and thriving instead of being destroyed, because the more the kingdom grows, the more people there are, and the more people there are the more people will eventually  die, and when you’re an immortal god of death, you know there’s no need to rush. you’ll get them all in the end

Byleth: To remember how many feet there are in a mile, you just need to use five tomatoes. Five to-mate-oes sounds like five, two, eight, and zero. And there’s 5280 feet in a mile.

Robin: To remember how many meters there are in a kilometer, you just remember 1000. Mainly because the system of measurement in the rest of the world wasn’t invented by a drunk mathematician rolling dice.

I have thoughts

I have prayers

I’m sending them in a certain direction

Infer what you will

Loved me those lov reactions! Could I get one for reactions to a recruit with a snake based quirk (control,naga,etc) that talks in sarcastic haikus? Think zero from borderlands if you've ever played lmao

anon came for my obsession with snakes and love of poetry with this one

I’ve never played borderlands but I hope this is what you’re looking for ;)

Quirk: Snakecharmer - With this quirk, Y/n can summon snakes that live inside of their skin to do her bidding. The only drawback is they have to shed their skin now and then and they have a speech impediment that makes them prolong the ‘s’ sound (like a snake’s hiss”

Shigaraki

giran brought you along with toga and dabi as new recruits for the league

at first glance, he just thought you looked normal, your face wasn’t fucked up like dabi and you didn’t seem to be as batshit crazy as toga

when he asked you to introduce yourself he took back the part about you being normal

“Our eyes meet across

the room. My lips say no, my

eyes say ‘read my lips’ “

bitch what

he doesnt understand this cryptic bullshit

when he starts to realize what you just said, he gets super annoyed

he just wants to disintegrate your flesh but kurogiri won’t let him

poor brat baby

he thinks your quirkless or that you have an weak quirk because you just seem so harmless

But

when the league were out on a mission and you and shigaraki got separated from the rest of the members, he thought shit had completely shit the fan

the heroes were surrounding you two and he was slightly injured

but when 20 fucking snakes jumped out of your body and started swallowing the heroes whole

[surprised pikachu face]

shigaraki literally said “and i OOP?!?”

he was so shocked

he thought it was kinda hot too 👀

shigaraki has a naga kink : exposed

he definitely starts to see you as less annoying and more ‘evil hot snake god(dess)’

the poems still get on his nerves tho

Dabi

he thinks giran is out of his mind to bring an actual knife-wielding child and a weird poetry lady

that is until he sees your quirk

he thinks it’s pretty awesome

one day, Shigiraki tries to grab you when you make a comment about Father and Dabi just sits back and watches these giant pythons come out of your back and bite shigaraki’s wrist before his hand touches you

Dabi is fucking impress

Your dialect does confuse him but if we are going off on the Dabi is a Todoroki Theory, then he’s used to Traditional Japanese Culture and his mother probably read some haikus to his as a child so he finds it endearing

but sometimes he gets triggered of his past and ignores you but if he thinks he can just get rid of you so easily he’s got another thing coming 👏

“A friend’s silence leaves

scars far deeper than the lash

of an enemy”

Dabi doesn’t get emotional very often but when he’s like that and having flashbacks about his past, he’s so soft

you remind him of his mom

or how his mom used to be before she went crazy

you wrap your snakes around him like a tight hug but not enough to hurt him

he actually gives you a genuine smile

uwu

Toga

this girl only speaks in kawaii and yandere

she’s also a middle school dropout so

she stupid

i mean she’s street smart but girl don’t even know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell

smh

she first starts taking interest in you after watching your snakes rip through an enemy’s body, splattering blood all over your body

she thinks you’re hella cute with all the blood on your face

she also thinks your pet snakes are adorable and she’s named every single one

lowkey named one izuku and started stabbing it but stopped once you started crying about your baby being hurt

she has a uwu crush on you

but not in the way where she wants to stab you

in the way where she wants to stab people with you

be gay do crime

she gets so confused when you talk tho

she stupid, as i said before

she loves when you make haikus about her tho

or the ones you stay when you’re about to kill someone

“ “women are weaklings!”

I’m strong enough to carry

your corpse to the woods”

she likes that one 🥰
