It's not 330p as 330 is the HORIZONTAL resolution, not the vertical. Vertical is still the same as NTSC (525 lines) or PAL (625 lines) so you'd technically have "480p" (NTSC) or "576p" (PAL) visible, with half the horizontal resolution. You can't describe these old video formats in the newer NNNp or NNNi terminology.
Probably it thought you searched for images from Romania that have been on the Mega file sharing service? Which in itself sounds, at least superficially, like something that would be very CSAM-ridden. It's likely a scunthorpe-like mix-up?
Yeah stay away from moose, they are friendly enough when lying down drunk on fermented apples in the yard, but if you come between a mom and a calf when walking in the forest you may be in a world of pain. Yes, they do attack dogs that become a nuisance.

Nice history! So cool to read that it was your mother, as well - not your father. I can imagine the shock the SJ brass got when they had /female/ applicants to this kind of serious education. Perish the thought, right?
e: As a Norwegian I read the original version, thanks for that!
It's so fun to see Stoll enthusiastically still participating in forums like this, commenting, adding anecdotes; just hanging out. A wonderful person and a true legend.
My smiles back to you ... in 1964, I coded our high school's IBM-1620, to solve a pythagorean triangle. Yep: punch-cards, assembler, and a very finicky Selectric. The computer couldn't even add (you had to load arithmetic tables first).
Since then, I've had the delight of learning from so many people - in computing, physics, and math. Like so many on HN, I appreciate the astonishing accomplishments in our field, and recognize the troubles and challenges which we've created.
Across sixty years of computing, I'm honored to spend time (usually as a lurker) on Hacker News.
Ah, thanks for enabling an excellent impromptu LMNC / Hainbach EP :) I loved that weird thing, and I'm so happy Sam and Hainbach "found each other" -- they jive so well together.
ISPs are SUPPOSED to allocate a /64 for a single customer. Mine does, so I have 4.5 billion available addresses within my 2001:4653:nnnn:nnnn::/64 prefix...
Good job not even attempting to secure your office switch ports with whitelisted MACs or whatever, then.
And if you then argue that MACs can be spoofed easily, well, you'd have to get the MAC of the authorised system first. And by that time you've physically broken into the building - you have worse problems than a rogue device or two...
