• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wikipedia is giving AI developers its data to fend off bot scrapers⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you read the few artucles about people being attacked by AI in the recent months they all tell the same story: it’s not possible. The AI companies are targetting on purpose other sites and working non stop to actively avoid any kind of blocking that could be active. They rotate IPs regularly, they change User agents, they ignore robots.txt, deduplicate requests over bunch of ips, if they detect they are being blocked they start only doing one request in each ip, they change user agents the moment they detect one is being blocked, etc etc etc.

  Many people have 60 and 100w usbc adapters already. I know I do.

  When AI can create any image or video based on another person with their perfect face and voice, besides the scams that will keep increasing, the other great value of the tech is that we going to be able to create any proof and footage we want to incriminate whoever we wish.

  Get ready when the ai bota start behaving like chidren to bait and create a relationship with people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support - Liliputing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This week I was discussing with a friend trying to check some boxes and see if she really needed the 10Gbps connection they were planning to subscribe to on the mew house. The usual 1Gbps connectiom we already have is more than enough. But we considered that in very small cases it might be useful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which non-US domain registrar to use?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was going over a bunch of alternatives last week and ended up creating an account here too. Haven’t bought anything yet, but hopefully I will move my namecheap domain here. Seemed to be the one with most available domain extensions with a price tending to be cheaper and even some discounts. Looked and joker and inwx but either didn’t have some interesting domains or were quite expensive. Specially inwx which only understood after creating and account that on top of each domain price I would need to add 5€ for basic whois privacy protection. On infomaniam it seems to be 2.5€ which combined with cheaper prices doesn’t sound so bad.

  And it all works as expected since it was trained on racist, biased and bigoted data.

  Like all other AI and all the copyright in the world. Shareholders are ok with. Copyright for me, not for you. Pirates were the bad guys. These are the saviours we deserve.

  Which the shareholders couldn’t freaking care less. They only need to get super rich in their lifetime.

  As they should. Someone has to do the work to destroy the abomination fad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Framework wants to fix the budget laptop with its first touchscreen machine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Same. Have a laptop with a touch screen for many years now and recently just disabled the feature because I never use it. There were like 3 occasions that I did and thought to myself “maybe for this it’s useful”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk’s X blocks links to Signal, the encrypted messaging service⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Matrix leaks a ton of metadata and for normal users the clients are still very much in the sucking phase. Signal being centralized changes nothing about its security when the freaking servers can’t see anything about the messages. It literally is the most secure way to communicate out there, period.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google officially changes the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Maps⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For them to not exist and to stop it they meed to be cleaned over regularly. Some countries had that figured out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google officially changes the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Maps⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s reassuring. We all know that google is the best at user support.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How prevalent is the topic of mental health in America compared to Germany?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This basically seems to work as we usually see the mafias or gangs enforcing their rule. Makes sense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s tribute to the new emperor hoping that he won’t go after them. Gotta play nice while they can.

  Sorry, I didn’t check the sub I was in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. It served it’s purpose, he bought a mass social media outlet, let it run wild, influenced elections, spread hate and normalized even more extreme views to fuck with all the world. The damage is done. Claiming doing something good at this point when it should have been done at the early signs but everyone would call you paranoid is just non sense. Crying wolf and all that bullshit.

  The best thing about cloudflare is when they leak a lot of confidential data publicly on the internet that only they see from their man in the middle position.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X's idiocy is doing wonders for Bluesky.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve deleted it ages ago, but another friend that actually knows and cares about the insanity of twitter still refuses to get away from it because “it’s where the kpop community is”, nowhere else. It’s fucking sad.

  Not really. Signal has a better app at this time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WIRED: Neo-Nazis Are Fleeing Telegram for Encrypted App SimpleX Chat.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Infrastructure will always be used by evil and good. If it exists. Just like a road. Normal people use them as well as murderers.

  If a good encryption chat software exists it will be used. It’s necessary for normal privacy and sensitive topics between people but those ones will also use it. Nothing to do about it.
