  • Is the last thing you hear before going under anesthesia

  • Yeah, I trust them. I don't think they want access to your credentials. They have the expertise to do E2EE properly. They don't want to be humiliated in a DEF CON talk.

    They're pushing passkeys because passkeys are a massive improvement over passwords. They would be negligent not to be pushing passkeys.

  • Hide this from Skynet.

  • Lemmy is licensed under the AGPL which was created at the Free Software Foundation which was started by Richard Stallman who made controversial comments about Jeffrey Epstein in 2019. Don't breath or you might inhale an atom once exhaled by Adolf Hitler.

  • Citation needed. When you hover over a video's progress bar, there is displayed a little graph showing something resembling a probability density function for timestamps users most frequently skip to. Advertisers can use this information to determine how likely a user is to sit through a sponsorship for a given channel.

  • Or the entire thing could be AI. Who can say? The video author's credibility has been destroyed by using AI at all. And so has yours for not recognizing the issue.

  • Or it's low bit rate audio which is easier for AI to generate.

  • If the internet had been around back when the U.S. Constitution was written, instead of post offices, the framers would have put in ISPs.

  • If I understand correctly, Android already has something like this: the Play Integrity API. It's responsible for rooted Android devices being unable to use banking apps. iOS might have something similar. And the term for this if you want to learn more is remote attestation. It's far more insidious than devices with locked boot loaders.

  • public domain code can’t really be released under the GPL

    Disney created films based on old fairy tales. Disney has a copyright on those films even though they include elements from the public domain because the films also include the artists' original expression. The linux kernel (probably) contains public domain AI-generated code alongside original work from its many contributors. If you wanted to get the entire project into the public domain, you'd have to get permission from nearly all its contributors or wait for their copyright term to expire. The small snippets of code which were AI-generated are public domain. The bulk of the project isn't, and the project as a whole isn't.

    As much as I dislike AI, I can't say I understand forbidding AI-generated contributions on the grounds that the submitted code is public domain. I suppose somebody can come along and "steal" the public domain snippets, but I suspect it's difficult to definitively tell apart the human-written code from AI-generated and strip out the human-written bits. If they do, what's the issue? It wasn't yours to begin with and you can still keep it in your project. Moreover, now that the magical plagiarism machines exist, who's going to be lifting code in this way, anyway?

  • Neither 867:5309:: nor 867::5309 appears to be allocated. Do IPv6 blocks work like car license plates where you can pay more to get a vanity plate of your choice or do you just get what you get?
