I’ve worked in commercial refrigeration for 20 years and have been seeing a lot of comments asking why freezers and coolers are connected to the internet, and how they could get this warm. A bit of context:

Commercial refrigeration has used DDC (Direct Digital Control) and BAS (Building Automation System) platforms for decades. These systems continuously monitor temperatures, pressures, and equipment status. If a freezer fails at 11 p.m., they automatically alarm and dispatch a technician before product is lost. Across grocery stores and cold storage facilities, this prevents billions of dollars in food loss every year. They also let technicians remotely diagnose and fix issues before they become failures.

What appears to have happened here is that the attackers forced the cases into a prolonged defrost cycle instead of simply turning them off. In freezers, defrost normally uses electric heaters or hot-gas defrost for 10 to 15 minutes every few hours (or as needed by sensors) to clear ice off the evaporator. In coolers it’s usually just stopping the refrigerant flow while the fans run. These cycles are short and controlled so the product stays in a safe temperature range. If someone overrides that and leaves the heaters or hot gas running, temperatures climb quickly, which matches the 50 °C reports.

It’s fair to ask whether these systems should be online. In practice, modern grocery and industrial plants are too complex to operate without remote monitoring and control. Removing that connectivity would raise food costs and increase spoilage. These platforms are normally locked down with multiple layers of security; seeing them successfully attacked at this scale is genuinely concerning.

Hope that helps explain how something like this can happen.

@BruceHamill_DU @Alexarmstrong What a deal. Go die for your education, a pretty good health system and clean tap water that you already pay for with your high taxes.

@Cernovich lol their neoliberal shell game of moving the productive economy to the 3rd world and replacing it with a debt fueled rentier economy is coming an end and they know it. Only way out is to dupe the youth into WWIII.

@profstonge How about making the permanent change a half hour instead of 1 hour

“It’s a historical museum overrun by foreigners.” Hit the nail on the head with that one.

I absolutely love it when I get to see a fellow Latina destroy a liberal White woman who has absolutely ZERO knowledge about the who, what, where, when, and why she is supporting other than what her TV and Democrats have told and brainwashed her with.

My favorite is when they tell us to our face what our life experiences are, have been like, what to believe, think, and as a result, who to vote for.

The same script in Romania, Hungary, and now Poland.The @EU_Commission is supposed to defend the EU rule of law. It does the opposite.

My good friend @D_Tarczynski explains what happened in Poland last night.

Halloween Costume of the Night

This dog wins Halloween costume of the night. Nothing can beat this. He doesn't look too happy about it, but I hope he gets a nice bone and plenty of treats when it's all over.

What's the best pet costume you've seen tonight?

@GustBrian Why is she angry about her students. She should be mad at the education colleges that train her colleagues

Ram Chhetri came to the US as a refugee, but this might be worst day of his life: It's the moment he realizes the $80k-$160k/year salary he's bilked from Medicaid for no-show work is coming to an end because @realdailywire caught the truth on camera.

We conducted months of surveillance that shows why "home care aide" is now the *most common job* in states like NY, CA, MN, and PA: Because a large part of those jobs are unambiguous Medicaid fraud.

Thanks to home care, Bhutanese refugees now make more money than actual PA families. The state doesn't just look the other way, but helps them get away with it. Converting federal health dollars into a universal basic income for certain communities relieves the financial burden they place on the state.

The scammers easily deceive the feds' woefully broken monitoring system. You'll see Ram pull into a driveway for 2 minutes in the morning, then 2 minutes in the evening. He clocks in and out of his shift from the right place, and the GPS system doesn't notice that he goes home in between.

$20 an hour doesn't sound like much, but at 77 hours a week, it's $80k–and it's easy to bill huge hours when you don't actually have to work them. And that's just for the low-level guys in this scheme.

Mel Gibson paid Robert Downey Jr.'s insurance bond when no insurer would cover him. Eight years later, with Gibson's own career in ruins, Downey asked Hollywood to forgive him.

In 2003, Downey was coming off years of drug arrests, and no insurance company would cover him on a film set. Gibson, a producer on The Singing Detective, covered the insurance bond himself so Downey could play the lead.

Downey has said Gibson also told him not to give up hope and urged him to find his faith.

The only thing Gibson asked in return was that someday Downey help the next guy.

In 2006, Gibson was arrested in Malibu, and his own career collapsed.

In October 2011, Downey received the American Cinematheque Award and asked Gibson to present it. In the video below, Downey tells the room why he chose him. About that old favor, he says Gibson "didn't imagine the next guy would be him."

Then he urged Hollywood to forgive his friend.

Gibson later told Esquire it was "a bold and generous and kind gesture."

Did Downey owe Gibson that speech, or was it a risk nobody else in Hollywood was willing to take?
