Reminder: if you anticipate being in contact with law enforcement and have any spare moments at all: restart your phone and do not unlock it. This “before first unlock” (BFU) state does not yet have auth keys loaded and secrets decrypted in active memory, and is thus rather more difficult to exploit and gain entry to.

This ignores the fact that the USSR was perfectly happy to divvy up Eastern Europe between themselves and the Third Reich, right up until Ze Germans backstabbed them.

Billions is OpEx. It needs to be a percentage of their operating revenue (not profit). It should hurt, and be commercially crippling.

lol yikes, that’s like… really egregiously bad.

If only we had a functioning and competent government agency devoted almost entirely to InfoSec that isn’t staffed by imbecilic political hacks…

😑

Well that’s fucking irritating and dumb…

I switched from a 3080FE to a 9070XT (largely because I’m predominantly running Bazzite now, and AMD is less annoying as a gaming gpu on Linux - not to mention, I try to avoid giving NVDA business on new cards these days). Works like a charm.

Holy fuck Rutte is such a tool 🤦‍♂️

That would unironically be a more entertaining and useful presentation than pretty much any all-hands keynote delivered by the C-suite that I’ve ever seen in my career

I was unironically expecting him to try to change the acronym to just that

Unitedstatesian here; please, go ahead, we’d really appreciate it.

Lmao I am living this right now at work 🥲

The Dubbya administration was the one that sent the invite

Edit: my mistake - I could have sworn that an administration person was involved at some point

Many, many of them didn’t, and still don’t.

A couple decades ago, they thought it would be a great idea to invite Colbert as a headliner to the (at the time) annual press correspondents dinner. That went about as swimmingly as you might expect.

That’s only going to incentivize a person to not fail at committing suicide. And the policy/laws around this should be focused on assisting suicidal people in improving their mental health and becoming less suicidal.

Also: what are they gonna do if you succeed in the crime? Execute you?

Microsoft, in a policy document, wrote that generative AI could “significantly disrupt the employment of the very people who generated the data on which the foundation model was trained […] LLMs are a product that destroys its supply chain.”

If that’s not the very definition of a categorically unsustainable business model, I don’t know what the fuck is.

Kinda makes a body want to figure out some sort of RPi+battery+automated exploit doodad to throw in one’s backpack to confuse/brick/pwn the creeperShades

Yeah - “air condition the planet” becomes a reasonable and viable option if you’re at K1

Janeway replicates her coffee.

Holden would never stand for that philistine bullshit.
