A comedian makes a funny

That is every now and then the question, the actor, the comedian (which is weird as the original Heimdall had zero sense of humor) flexed his funny muscle when he used his own wax figurine to unlock his own phone. 

I saw the news last night and it didn’t hit me then, but 1-2 hours later something occurred to me, if that is possible, something else becomes possible too. As I couldn’t find the story anymore, I found this story (which is basically the same, at https://www.mandatory.com/news/1705735-idris-elba-wax-figure-unlock-his-phone) and when I reread it, just to make sure that I was on the right track, the other thought perturbed my brain. You see, when that works, the altered setting of projecting a high res photo (over 30MP) projected against a styrofoam head (to give it proper 3D settings) might work as well. 

As such those ‘relying’ on FaceID optionally get a new problem, because the world at large is overly happy with all the selfies they are making. 

So I got to thinking, should the next camera be equipped with an additional infrared or ultraviolet setting, the premise changes, because either of those will not be transmitted and should the system use the two images (infrared might be better) combined with a normal picture, we get a setting of non repudiation, a setting I applaud and I think we should rely on, as such FaceID becomes more secure and an optional setting towards non repudiation.

As such the makers of phones (Granny Smith and Google) as well as other phone makers might want to consider this step to secure their safety features. I reckon that Google might be the first to take this step and optionally the Pixel 12 might be the first one to hold this setting. The Pixel 11 is already in pre production, as such it might be too late to set that alteration in motion and lets face it, it is not an issue yet and lets face it as it stands, the members who need this feature have other ways to get this done and by the time this trickles down a year would have passed. 

So as someone in a ver funny way used his own wax figuring to unlock his phone, as such there are only 11,500 in ‘peril’ from getting their phone unlocked, whilst my styrofoam solution brings ‘unease’ to the 2,500,000 origanised crime bosses globally and as Salvatore Maranzano passed away before the smartphone, because of a novelty item, his secrets are still safe. But the need for non repudiation might once again have been pushed to the forefront of the brain of whomever needs this, so that’s good.

Well, that was fun. Got to use the noggin to create another piece of IP and the world might be better for it. And for me a story emerged a few hours ago that has me puzzled. You see, some in the American Administration as saying their economy is doing good (I think someone used the expression ‘robust’) which I think is not that sincere, but then again a block of iron is ‘robust’ when facing a piece of carton, but there is a difference between iron and steel and that difference when we see that one is $106.03 and the other is $951.00, so we have some fluctuation here and that is at the core of my puzzlement. You see, the news I saw gives us “The pound to dollar exchange rate has cracked into the 1.38’s in midweek trade following a remarkable 1.20% daily gain.” And as far as I know, the UK economy isn’t doing great as such how did this happen? Is the US economy in a lot more problems than the US stakeholders are allowing for the media to be released? Your guess is as good as mine as I have less knowledge of this than Heimdall has on humor. But there is something afoot and even if I did like the setting that I am correct yet another time, the impact of a stalling American economy due to the $38,665,000,000,000 debt they are having and as that debt is over 200 billion more than in the last two weeks, as I personally see it time might be running out for America. But that is a story for another day. At present I am gloating for my IP towards a solution for non repudiation and that is enough for now.

Almost time for my morning routine (coffee and breakfast) so you all have a great day.
