  • Why is a company or person that doesn’t exist physically in Utah at all responsible for adhering to Utah’s laws?

    This line of thinking is dangerous as it allows companies to disregard any sane legislation as long as their servers are located in a "safe" place. A large portion of websites accessible from Canada are served from US servers, for example. American companies ignoring Canadian laws because they don't have Canadian-based servers would be a nightmare

    If a company makes any money off users in a geographic area (which includes ad view revenue), they have to follow the rules there which is a GOOD thing - even if it's ridiculous in this case

    Also endorsing governments selectively blocking websites is just bad for obvious reasons

  • I think it really depends on the work the program does and how effectively it uses caching, concurrency, etc. Something like data serialisation would probably be a lot slower in Python compared to something like handling simple UI event triggers which might only have that 0.001 difference

    FCC votes to ban all Chinese labs from certifying electronics sold in the US due to national security concerns — ruling would affect 75 percent of US-bound devices

  • Hey maybe computer components will cost a sane amount in the sane rest of the west

  • I Left Port 22 Open on the Internet for 54 Days. Here's Who Showed Up.

    Jump

  • I initially disagreed but after actually reading the post, I'm with you. If it was only the article's text that was generated and not the data or graphs then I don't see why the whole thing would be written off. I mean, it's really sad seeing people offload their writing to AI but I still found it interesting.

  • GitHub - minio/minio: "This repository was archived by the owner on Apr 25, 2026. It is now read-only."

  • +1 to Garage being great! I used it for a personal project and it worked really well. A lot of S3 data browsing clients also support it natively or just through API compatibility too

  • You can eat ONE inedible thing of your choice. What's for dinner?

    Jump

  • By eating it, would that mean it's just instantly paid off or do the lenders just lose any record of you taking a loan? The answer would either mean an infinite money glitch or very confused accountants and getting blacklisted by banks

  • Nextcloud stops bug bounty program due to increase of low-effort AI-generated reports

  • The state or computer science right now is soul crushing

  • TIL steak Canadian was not invented in Canada and almost no one in Canada knows what it is.

    Jump

  • "Canadian bacon" is peameal bacon right? That shit's delicious but while I've always assumed that's what Americans meant by Canadian bacon, I've never been sure

    edit: oh yeah I'm completely wrong and have never seen anything like that really

    edit 2: okay there's some truth to my original comment. Peameal bacon is the best and everyone who eats meat should try it

  • Wonder why?

  • I hate whoever got themselves cursed with such interesting times because what the fuck is even happening anymore

  • I'll admit I didn't know what the shadow from the TV was until I read the comments. I went back to change my downvote to an upvote

  • Texas can require public schools to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms, US appeals court rules

    Jump

  • I mean, yay progress but several states only banning slavery in 2022 kind of strengthens my original comment

  • Texas can require public schools to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms, US appeals court rules

    Jump

  • Yeah, nah, laws banning slavery shouldn't have an asterisk and the US is pretty fucked up for that

  • SHOCK POLL: Trump Approval Craters to 33% in New AP Poll, Whopping 67% Disapprove

    Jump

  • And hopefully last. The USA neeeds to rebuilt from the ground up either as a whole new country or as any number of smaller ones. There's no way for Americans to elect their way out of this because the rest of the world doesn't know when you all will just elect another Trump - and at this point we don't really care as we're well into the process of cutting all ties

  • This Scammer Used an AI-Generated MAGA Girl to Grift ‘Super Dumb’ Men

    Jump

  • lmao, they remove it when they find it, they're not actively looking for it. In fact, I bet they're actively trying to avoid ways to take it down.

    Yeah, I don't use IG but my wife has reported explicitly nazi glorification content before but because the account would say "for historical purposes only", they just say they didn't find anything wrong with the posts. Fuck Meta

  • Meta capturing employee mouse movements, keystrokes for AI training data

    Jump

  • What the hell would mouse movements even be useful for outside of things already better achieved by frameworks like Playwright? Are they planning to let AIs control desktop peripheral input? For it to be useful you'd need the AI to have full screen visibility and if you have that, why not just script the mouse movement to where you want it to go?

  • RAM Shortage Expected to Continue Into Next Year or Later

    Jump

  • Would they actually be able to afford it? Investors have been throwing endless amounts of money onto the fire but in OpenAI's case at least, it was all essentially bought like "I'll pay you later, trust me", right?

    I'd assume convincing companies twice that you're trustworthy enough to buy the world's supply of RAM with an IOU wouldn't be possible but I guess I thought the same thing for the first time as well

    edit: either way, I'd take a longer period of expensive RAM if it meant a giant "fuck you" to the AI companies
