    I saw this number used as an ID for a 'fake' cell tower in a van that later turned out to be a police surveillance op on a neighbor.
    I called the police and noone called back or showed up at all....after calling twice.
    They were pissed that I went door to door warning everyone.
    I also put a tracker on it.......and after they moved the van 2 days later........they took that and never gave it back.
    Anyway..... when I looked this number up online and read what it was .
    ... I knew right then this cant be a valid signal or I would have ignored it.
    In cyber security you just start to look for anomalies. Things that dont jibe or look .....different.
    I did leave a message for the watch commander telling them that they should use more 'average' concealment and dont underestimate their advisary.
    But I didnt even know this was the highest value that could be used as an int varriable in 32 bit opperations until I saw that.
    The internet can be quite a learning tool for many but unfortuanatly it's too often used by the vast majority of SHEEPle for likes and posting the detailed minutiae of their lives.
    It's like handing a nuke to a caveman, they are more likely to trade it for an animal skin because its shiny rather than even being able to concieve what it's really capable of.
    Knowledge is (amung other intangable experiences) more likely than anything else.... to stay with us when we die.
    Ok.... well im sure I just went off on a tangent but ......isint that what your supposed to do when your bored a d posting on the internet?

      During the end of stellar life, star's core will fuse helium nuclei into carbon, oxygen, silicon and eventually into iron. The sun's mass is simply not enough to fuse all the way up to iron, which will trigger a supernova. Instead it'll shed its outer layers and leaving its white core, which is then known as a white dwarf, always made up of elements lower than iron.
