Is that better or worse than Google?

It's more like you ask a paralyzed person to lift his arm and he says he doesn't want to.

FYI there are no FOSS LLMs

> In the current Iranian war the UK is only allowing it's bases to launch defensive missions, i.e. strike offensive capability

If Iran struck all of the UK's missile factories and military bases, would it be considered a defensive or offensive action?

That's true. There is, like, no GUI library on desktops any more.

I'll believe that you believe that your bank statements only need to be private for a year, when you upload all of yours until a year ago.

Why would you take the stupidest possible interpretation of that person's comment?

Signatures aren't as urgent to replace as encryption keys are. You can wait until someone is about to build a quantum computer, then change all your signatures. Encrypted data is more critical because the NSA's going to store all internet traffic for centuries if it thinks it can decrypt it later.

In terms of actually doing it, it's still very remote, but not as remote as it would have to be for us to completely ignore it. And the NSA has massive data centers full of hard drives storing our encrypted internet traffic.

Gradually, and especially when hot. Modern chips are pretty close to the physical limits of how small they can be made, and that means atomic/chemical effects like electromigration are accounted for and determine the lifetime. Every extra 10 degrees Celsius of temperature doubles the speed of chemical reactions.

Thanks captain pedantic

Just make a new one and start using it for new things. Move things over piecemeal. You don't have to close your old account.

Do casual computer users use the word "malware"? I think people only know the term "virus" but when I say "windows is a computer virus" everyone thinks I'm insane.

I can see that chrooting into an empty folder can make it look like everything is deleted but it's actually the mkfs command that deleted everything.

I think it's a case of projection. Megatech CEOs feel that avoiding interactions with peons is the most important thing, so they add this feature assuming that everyone else also wants that.

Banning selling alcohol to children is a slippery slope to banning candy and then banning food and then banning giving water to children. Right?

> It's the digital equivalent of requiring ID to go anywhere or do anything, rather than just a few well-defined things.

No, it's social media, specifically.

Thank god we have "American ingenuity" to enshittify new inventions. Where would we be without that?

Did the USSR have a space program?

For $5 I'll give you an age token from my card.

How about the internet?

That's Google's new captcha design - they want you to scan a code on your phone to reuse your mobile's attestation on your desktop.

Fun fact: America invented the social credit score, long before China, and they still have it. The only difference, is the lack of the word "social" in the system's name, but it's the same system.

It's to prevent you training another model to emulate the reasoning. They want it to be their moat.

According to Cory Doctorow, P&G (Proctor&Gamble) canceled $200m of ad spend and saw no change in sales

Supporting life is different from already having life. There are lifeforms that only rely upon soil for structural support and not for nutrients - they could probably grow on regolith as long as it's not too toxic. We could also spray it with needed nutrients.

This is, at this point in time, still a hypothesis.

The German government either does not understand that, or pretends not to understand that. Saying "F Israel" would be treated as a hate crime against Jews, which is treated even stronger than a regular hate crime due to history.

Every package manager, by design, allows arbitrary code execution after the update completes. It is the entire purpose of a package manager. There is no point installing code that does not run.

To be fair, everyone in China agrees with the government about everything. It's not really optional.
