  • I hope that if I’m ever in the papers for abandoning my morals, my oaths, and all dignity in egregiously stupid ways, that my wonton and clear law-breaking is characterized as defiance.

    “Oh, no, your honor, I wasn’t breaking all those laws! I was defying them!”

  • You could possibly DoorDash some river water to your home. (I don’t know how DoorDash works.)

    But then it won’t be free. Hm. Foiled by capitalism!

  • Just like eroding every possible freedom to ‘protect’ people from terrorists and children from pedophiles. Irony is dead.

  • Sithlord.jpg

    I will make it illegal!

  • It’s a pie chart that shows how much of its belly looks like a hole!

  • IDGAF

  • That’s actually my fault.

    I stole all their catalytic converters to pay a lobbying group to get the local politicians to fund mass transit. Instead the batards passed vaguely worded noise ordinances that get selectively enforced by so-called public servants to target certain groups.Sorry about that.

  • I was going to ask “What’s your point?” but then I realized that this post isn’t even anti-AI.

    The text of this post highlights anticompetitive business practices that have nothing to do with OpenAI’s business model.Straight up - they can’t even use the silicon wafers.

    This is just market manipulation to harm their competition and possibly engage in stock market fuckery. (Micron, which stands to make billions, is largely owned by U.S. based wealth management companies.)

    OpenAI and its business partners stand atop a massive bubble that they are desperate to not have pop. I’m horrified, but kind of impressed at the maneuver.

    You’re throwing stones in the wrong direction.

  • It’s one of those thought terminating statements that people throw out to disingenuously “win” arguments on the internet.

    Your post was useful and interesting. The image accompanying it was not, but it doesn’t change the information relayed.

  • OnlyFans has steadfastly maintained that it is not explicitly a pornographic site. I imagine if a ruling went out that every tipped interaction on the site was considered pornography, they would step in on behalf of the content creators to try to whittle that down to case-by-case rulings, for no other reason than PR alone.

    Tipping into the silly now…

    I can’t wait until someone issues a FOIA for the deliberations over whether certain things are pornographic or not.

  • That’s kind of fucked up if there’s not an indication that it’s a replica. Akin to yelling fire in a theater if someone used one of them maliciously.

    Perhaps it could be kind of neat as a curio if it’s a highly engineered/beautiful work of art (that is maybe too expensive to use for malicious ‘jokes’). But I’d still want it to have some sort of indication that folks aren’t getting dosed/they don’t have to trigger a response by your local atomic energy officials.

    Editing to add that before I picked Krakatoa (fingers crossed on my inability to predict natural disasters), I actually searched for “disasters with no death toll” to use as an example for a potential model without much success. It is in poor taste and my comments are definitely parody.

  • That’s horrible. I love it.

  • Wow. A 3d printer, an ultrasonic humidifier module, and a completely sociopathic grasp on world affairs could see the most offensive Etsy store ever.

    There’s basically no limit to the depravity one could stoop to in pursuit of money.

    I sense a business opportunity, but at what cost?No, I mean, literally, what’s a steaming Krakatoa worth?

  • This is so pathetic and stupid.

    This isn’t aimed at Russia or China, whom the article calls out by name.This is a dick measuring contest with Iran and North Korea.

    I mean - he made the announcement in South Korea.

    Diplomatically, Trump (well, his administration) has stated to learn that befriending and allowing tinpot dictators to humiliate the U.S. is non-viable. So they’ve moved to cold-war era tactics of arms races and implied threats of nuclear holocaust.They, of course, are focusing on smaller nations that while powerful in their own right, aren’t actual threats to the U.S. global hegemony. Not that I support continued U.S. dominance on the world stage, but it’s a weird priority.Maybe by the end of the admin, they’ll be caught up to Clinton, who realized the best way to apply pressure was economically and via international partnerships — assuming the U.S. has an economy and international partnerships to leverage by then.

  • It was a TCL Alto 9+.

    A quick internet search reveals that this issue was known about at least three years ago.

    Another model, the 8i was reported to have a root password of “12345678” - which is partially how I got the idea to start seeing if I could gain root.

  • I commented elsewhere, but I once had a soundbar that just had a no password ssh login. It was one of those ‘connect to your WiFi’ to stream music through models and for whatever reason, after connecting it to my WiFi, it continued to broadcast the publicly joinable setup network.

    SSH was open to both the unsecured and secured networks, so anyone within WiFi distance of the device could have gained root control of it. Or if I had a sufficiently weak network setup, anyone online could have taken control of it.

  • A few years ago I noticed an annoyance with a soundbar I had. After allowing it onto my WiFi network so we could stream music to it, it still broadcast the setup WiFi network.

    While dorking around one day, I ran a port scan on my network and the soundbar reported port 22 (ssh) was open. I was able to log in as root and no password.After a moment of “huh, that’s terrible security.” I connected to the (publicly open) setup network, ssh’d in, and copied the wpa_supplicant.conf file from the device to verify it had my WiFi info available to anyone with at least my mediocre skill level. I then factory reset the device, never to entrust it with any credentials again.

  • I don’t think it’s individual evidence, really. I suspect it’s probably more the bot farms and pressure campaign. Those carry a lot of water for the illusion of continued group consensus.

  • Coffee plus one of the following (it changes, depending on my whim and ingredient availability):

    • Homemade egg bites (egg, sausage or meatless sausage, peppers, onion, spinach, cheese)
    • Cereal
    • Greek yogurt mixed with a dollop of jam
    • Breakfast sandwiches (homemade, prepackaged, or from a local restaurant)
    • Biscuits and gravy
