  • What's the minimum number of food items you can survive on exclusively and what are they?

    Jump

  • With enough body fat, sprinkle in a bit of electrolyte and maybe vitamins and that's all you need.

    I remember reading of a supervised case like that, many months, if not a year. I couldn't find it with a quick search.

  • AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fast

    Jump

  • Does it work for people with first name Al?

  • Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments

    Jump

  • forgetting to redact credentials that made it possible for all of Reddit to log into Epstein’s account and trample over all the evidence

    /o\ 🤦

  • Unredacted files reveal Anthropic’s ‘secret plan’ to ‘destructively scan all the books in the world'

    Jump

  • It was physical books?

  • 32-year-old programmer in China allegedly dies from overwork, added to work group chat even while in hospital

    Jump

  • It's insane to me that you claim it doesn't allow internal corruption when China is a very corrupt system.

    There may be good systematic economy foundations, I can't speak much about those, but if they're not applied to everyone and just then it's besides the point.

  • Danish Students Face Legal Action and Fines Over Textbook Piracy

    Jump

  • This would be a great cause for universities and students for pushing political reforms. Hindering education and development are good catchers for politics.

  • You won: Microsoft is walking back Windows 11’s AI overload — scaling down Copilot and rethinking Recall in a major shift

    Jump

  • Honestly it's good engineering practice to not be stuck in your own product.

    You want them to be using only copilot?

  • Claude Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft

    Jump

  • For copilot in visual studio at least you can select between models it will use, depending on the org setup showing them.

    I don't see how "worst of all of them" applies when it's an umbrella of other models.

    Maybe we're all taking about different copilots. There's multiple products after all.

  • Notepad++ Hijacked by State-Sponsored Hackers

    Jump

  • Yes, that's the safe way. Uninstall, download current version, install. That's it.

    Outside of being compromised already where you would have to notice and fix outside of notepad anyway. But that seems unlikely given the selective attack nature the hoster was able to confirm. If you'd want to cover that you would have to know and do a lot more.

  • Notepad++ Hijacked by State-Sponsored Hackers

    Jump

  • It's not game over regardless if the updater checks a signature of the update installer. Then it wouldn't run an installer by someone else.

  • Notepad++ Hijacked by State-Sponsored Hackers

    Jump

  • The previous release already fixed this, or evaded the issue.

    The channel was the update mechanism. Upon Notepad++ checking for updates, they were able to inject their own. So if you updated via the apps own update checker they could have misdirected you into installing something else or something modified.

  • Notepad++ Hijacked by State-Sponsored Hackers

    Jump

  • Every version before the previous one.

    If you haven't updated you were not vulnerable to the update hijacking.

  • No comment replies indicates that it worked! /s

  • Beware: Government Using Image Manipulation for Propaganda

    Jump

  • I had written to them, and they pointed to a CNN source, which mentioned another video from a different angle, and the family confirmed it was them in the video. So yeah, seems like it was valid.

  • Why do people who try to convince others to switch to metric focus so much on the conversions?

    Jump

  • but in general that everything fits together due to the coherent units and ratio

    Isn't what you call coherent units and ratio just another word for conversions?

    How do you differentiate them then?

  • Self-driving cars, autonomous robots and drones, and other AI systems can get hijacked by custom road signs

    Jump

  • As long as it didn't say "minimum speed"

  • In Germany, everyone does it. Yes, I think it is common courtesy. It is a matter of basic respect to others.

    It's not like it's difficult or a lot of effort. You specifying it against "just in the area" - maybe you have more space for carts, but if you already move it into the designated area, I don't see that aligning it could be significantly more effort or time investment.

  • How do you argue against "I have nothing to hide" in relation to privacy and security?

    Jump

  • How much trust do you have in your executive and justice system? Data is great for associating people and making up reasons for just cause when there was none and even when there is none.

    Targeted advertising must pay tracking and advertisments. It must be more expensive by default. Worse than that, it can make it more expensive for you specifically, and timed when in need. Instead of product based and on a competitive neutral market, the one paying most who consequently must also pull the most money from you wins, and you lose the most.

    Investing inconvenience into authentication security means someone can't just grab your phone and clear out your bank accounts and all accounts linked to your email address. Does every app need 2FA? Maybe not, you can consider a convenience vs security risk assessment. But if you don't have the technical and security expertise to do so you risk gross misinterpretation.

    Even if you lock stuff, if your communication is not encrypted, people can learn if you're a worthwhile or vulnerable target. Even if you're careful, phishing can be designed specifically for you and your weaknesses, and with knowledge about your persona, behavior, and views.

    Even if it doesn't affect you, it can enable and ease attacks on those close to you, those you are in contact with.

    Any systematic weakness is not only a weakness in that aspect but an entry point into the whole system. Be it personal connections, contracts, services, your bank, your insurance, whatever.
