  HDMI either works or it doesn’t. It’s not an analogue signal.

  Better yet, use the latest remote code execution exploit in notepad to install and host a local web server!

  The whole website was probably built by agentic AI.

  Of course they give a shit about kids safety. Specifically because of media blowback and legal ramifications, not for the sake of the actual kids of course, but still!

  So take the hair off and eat the damn pie

  I lucked out so hard, I just built my PC in September.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stack Overflow in freefall: 78 percent drop in number of questions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do wonder then, as new languages and tools are developed, how quickly will AI models be able to parrot information on their use, if sources like stackoverflow cease to exist.

  Eh, I haven’t boycott Ubisoft. But also, they don’t make good games so I haven’t bought any either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hate it when this happens⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Haha fair enough. It’s kind of hard to define a nominalized verb in English, I feel 😅

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hate it when this happens⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not quite the same, although interesting!

  In this case, “Bukkake” is a noun in both English and Japanese. “Bukkakeru” with the “ru” on the end is the verb form that the noun comes from. English didn’t change it, the picking of nits above just wasn’t quite correct.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hate it when this happens⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s the noun form of the verb bukakkeru. Japanese is weird.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Librarians Are Tired of Being Accused of Hiding Secret Books That Were Made Up by AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh absolutely, I did not mean to summarize such a topic so lightly, I meant so solely in this very narrow conversational context.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Librarians Are Tired of Being Accused of Hiding Secret Books That Were Made Up by AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s more of a tone thing, which is something AI is capable of modifying. Hallucination is more of a foundational issue baked directly into how these models are designed and trained and not something you can just tell it not to do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, 79, Rants Incoherently About Robots and AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  For sure, and if this article had any more substance than him rambling, I’d agree with you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, 79, Rants Incoherently About Robots and AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is an article about a sad, old, inept man’s ramblings, tangentially related to technology, not nearly worth posting about in this community - in my opinion, of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Salesforce regrets firing 4000 experienced staff and replacing them with AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure they’re happy with the reduced costs from firing half the employees, but to not consider the potential issues and actually vet the quality was such a bad decision

  Kind of becomes irrelevant when the initial reduced costs were probably decimated by secondary costs they hadn’t even considered, for example, time wasted by remaining employees now burdened with correcting the AI’s mistakes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nearly all of Spotify has been scraped and is available via torrents⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, but on the flip side this will 100% be used to train new music generation models lol…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, 79, Rants Incoherently About Robots and AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they’re referring to the political article and the community within which it has been posted, not that AI isn’t technology.

  And stalk women!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Flock Exposed Its AI-Powered Cameras to the Internet. 404 Media Tracked Themselves.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Dude, he just released another one where they accessed dozens of real, currently in use cameras. They didn’t even “hack” them, they just used a search engine to find publicly exposed cameras, opened their unsecured internal web panel, and could download and view any footage over the past 31 days.

  Truly wild.
