Original text by CO11ATERAL

A small USB device can cause a lot of damage when it’s physically plugged into a machine. In this scenario, a BadUSB turns a connection into a bridge for capturing authentication data and gaining network access, even on locked systems.

Welcome back, aspiring cyberwarriors!

In Part 1, we set the foundation…

3D Point 😁
***
Если точка имеет координаты x, y, z, значит ли это, что она трехмерная?
например:
P = (10, 20, 30)
у нее есть положение в 3D пространстве.
Есть ли у неё длина, ширина, высота и объём ?

*** то же самое, только злее

у точки в 3D есть три координаты.
у 3D объекта есть три размера.
Координаты и размеры — это одно и то же?
