"Laser light at that wavelength has only recently become possible."

Lolwut? We've been able to run multiple frequency-doubling passes on various laser sources to reach most any range of UV laser for well over a decade. The problem is you get not a whole lot of radiant output - less than half a watt output at gobs of watts input.

Also, 148nm is not deep UV, that is flat-out Vacuum UV.

California Penal Code 399: If an owner knows their animal is dangerous or mischievous, fails to keep it under control, and it kills a person, the owner commits a felony. If only serious injury occurs, it is a wobbler (depends on extent of injury as to whether misdemeanor or felony charges get pressed.)

No state completely lacks a legal mechanism to penalize or hold owners civilly or criminally negligent in this case, and most states explicitly have criminal statues covering this.

Are you just being willfully obtuse or what?

Using a GPU versus a CPU (as was done here) increases how quickly you can churn through those remaining possible permutations (I read the actual paper.)

What was done on an academic CPU cluster could probably be just as easily performed on a well-tuned bitcoin rig at far far faster speed.
