They don’t seem annoyed by their own false positives when they classify anyone who opposes genociding Palestinians as a terrorist. The UK Government seems quite happy with these heavy-handed tactics for the oppression of politically inconvenient people.

I think of it as being made by one of few really trustworthy organizations in tech.

Brakes. Misspelled headlines are irritating.

For some reason all I see is a picture, not the article. Here’s the link in case anyone else has the same problem:

May all Jeff Bezos’s ventures be similarly successful.

I don’t get what was wrong with forums in the first place, that motivated this shift to Discord. Forums seem far more usable.

I’m glad they’re keeping their cameras safe, but I do worry that a handheld laser could still reach a camera on a tall pole, though the operator might have to stand far enough away that they couldn’t be recognized. I hope no one would try to damage a valuable camera like that.

They renamed the Department of Defense to the Department of War. They should change the name of the Department of Justice to the Department of Vengeance.

The Yindjibarndi had originally sought nearly A$1.8 billion in compensation, arguing the amount should reflect both the scale of cultural loss and the immense profits generated from the mine, which reportedly earned Fortescue around A$80 billion since operations began.

Well, I’m sure that A$150 million out of their A$80 billion profit will teach them that illegal mining on other people’s land is an extremely good deal.

One calendar year, 10 lived years.

Or at least take its penis for later.

The macOS port, built by New York-based developer Andrey Letov using AI-assisted development workflows…

Yeah now I can see why he’s unhappy with it.

Thanks - that was interesting and informative, if a little depressing.

Did the AI get the wrong end of the stick because of the word “fiddler”?

Maybe Linux phones are less secure but more private? With Android and iOS a lot of effort has been put into restricting what each application can do. With standard Linux that’s less rigorously controlled, which is why there are security enhancements and sandboxing extras a distro can optionally add. So standard Linux may be less secure by default. But it doesn’t have all the surveillance built in that the mainstream phone OSs do, so it’s also by default more private.

Still, “security nightmare” sounds extreme. Wouldn’t a phone running a version of Debian be comparably secure to a computer running it?

VPS hosting doesn’t allow you to pretend to be in other countries to view their TV or sites that are censored in your country (unless you pay again for a VPS in each country). So it won’t replace everything commercial VPNs do.

Vim for the most part, and nano for when I’m tired and can’t remember how to work vim.

To be fair, the article is 9 years old and things could have changed in the meantime.

It is kind of funny.
