Outsourcing one’s brain activity benefits whom exactly?


Is that an actual shoe sole in the second picture?


As expected, this article is frustratingly devoid of detail.
The flaws identified do not concern a cryptographic standard currently in use today, which means that modern banking and communication systems are not subject to immediate potential intrusions from A.I. Instead, Anthropic’s technology cracked a watered-down version of an algorithm for Advanced Encryption Standard, or A.E.S., a ubiquitous protocol that safeguards web traffic, wireless networks, data storage and more.
So what does that mean, that it was unleashed at AES-ECB?
“Given that we are constantly underestimating the power and time of availability of future models, are we really comfortable that two years from now strong encryption won’t be threatened?” said Glenn S. Gerstell, the former general counsel at the National Security Agency.
“Mathematicians would tell you that it shouldn’t be possible given current computing powers to break strong encryption in any meaningful time,” added Mr. Gerstell, who helped write a report on cryptology in 2022. “But I don’t think the capabilities of future models in the medium term — before quantum computing or quantum-proof cryptography — should be dismissed as trivial in this context.”
What a load of horse hockey.


“Ha ha fuck you all, hope you die. God bless America yadda yadda”
Fuck no. Fragile floppies, DOS start file tuning, and no internet service in the entire city unless you went to university.


Marc Alaimo, because he is every bit as creepy as his character Gul Dukat.
If it happens, I will pick a new career. Maybe something in waste disposal. I have a lot of experience with trash from interacting with management.


The Bosch SmartHome outdoor camera.
The only way to view the stream is through their app and over the cloud, and the recordings are kept in the cloud exclusively. There is no way to use it without the cloud account. Everything is slow, choppy, unreliable and buggy as hell. Replaced it with Frigate running on our homeserver and a proper Hikvision IP camera. Much better quality, viewable from everywhere, much faster, ultra reliable, perfect.


Of course not, but that line of reasoning sounds similar to “I was just following orders”.


Honestly, most people working at a large corporation are not that impactful. Just a cog in the machine.
Just like any soldier in Nazi Germany’s army. Being a cog in the machine does not take away the guild from killing someone, or, if we are talking about “evil” companies, from denying someone treatment, or violating someone’s privacy, or…


That is what happens when I try to write a reply to an OP on my phone. Sorry!


Freddy Mercury, for sure.


Freddy Mercury for sure.

Lots of good stuff mentioned already, but nobody mentioned the Rivers Of London series yet. It is about a young police constabulary who solves crime using magic. Sounds pretty silly, but it’s pretty good. The author, Ben Aaronovitch, also wrote some scripts for Doctor Who (Remembrance of the Daleks, for instance) and Blake’s 7, so there’s that.


Not hallucination, distraction from class struggle.
The rich fuel the fire of hatred between us so we do not stop to realize they are taking everything, and destroying everything. Cannot say this often enough.
Maybe start respecting yourself and not campaign for a party and candidates that hate your very guts for being black and a woman.
