What would be the problem of downloading a few MB more, aren't these source tarballs just used to build the distro binary and then they are deleted?

Depends on the width of the radar beam. They are certainly not thin like a laser. It might not fit in the gap between the blades.

Some tools scan for crypto algorithms, typically by searching for the magic numbers, Ed448 is so new many tools probably don't recognize it.
Malware authors frequently change the crypto magic numbers to prevent detection.

You can do it on a single machine if you use the TPM to create log hashes which can't be rolled back.

You're talking as if securing a backdoor with public cryptography is some unimaginable feat of technology.
It's literally a couple hours work.

You're using the wrong CPU.
Consumer AMD 7950X supports AVX-512, it's faster than M2 Ultra at half the cost.

Isn't HDCP/DRM implemented in ASIC hardware? There is nothing programmable there.

Neurons are not on the germ line, whatever happens to their DNA is not passed down to your children.
There was another article in the recent years about neurons using RNA or DNA for storing information related to their activation patterns.

Re:Memories are made by breaking DNA – and fixing it

Neuron's DNA is not passed down, it would be quite logical for evolution to use neuronal DNA for weight storage.

I've once got 000000. If you do the math it takes about 1 year to cycle through all million of them, assuming no duplicates.
Which makes me wonder, what's the expected repeated distribution?
