Reminds me of BadBIOS, a little bit
Underrated comment
I doubt anyone here has planted a tree. We talk of action and do nothing. Every time I mention trees, I am told that instead we need expensive contraptions made out of mined materials, that usually require an external…
Call me cynical but my immediate impression that the gamedev is lying and exploiting the perceived asymmetry between the indie dev and the behemoth that is Steam. Attaching your game to controversy around AI is a great…
For what it's worth, I don't think using Signal or Threema is enough to make you an E2EE enthusiast, and wanting to speak without your speech later used against you is maybe the purest reason for E2EE. I meant more so…

I find it tiresome that blogposts about privacy always end up devolving into a discussion about how data can be used against individuals. There is a flip side to that coin, which is the individual's free will. Every one…
I have stopped using my dehumidifier, now I shall live forever.
Probably not what the parent poster was talking about, but fear is a great inhibitor. Excessively high standards for documentation and depth of scope might inhibit less experienced engineers, and nitpicking about scope…
It is not the same. The US government does not partially own Instagram or Twitter, and I've never seen pro-US narratives driven on either platform. I usually see the opposite if anything.
I was disappointed that these robots simply move in a toddler-like fashion as they learn. I did not read anywhere in the article that AI agents learn from toddlers. If this is an attempt at clickbait then I'm doubly…
I agree. The way I see it is that browser is more of an HTTP response viewer than a REST client.
Generally I agree with you, drivers get away with murder too easily, however in this case this woman's crime was not paying attention in a self driving car. What if instead she had been paying attention but applied the…
This notion of security is stale. Real security is far more complex than this, requiring automated provisioning and logging. This is more suitable for a VPS or a personal VM than anything professional. Also installing…
To break from the party line and parrot that E2E encryption is a human right for just a moment, does anyone else experience the same fatigue with communities on encrypted platforms? I've never found a good community on…
Ben Greenfield, who is regarded as somewhat of a quack, has for a long time advocated for isometric exercise. I always found him interesting so I followed his blog for a while. I always thought the stuff about isometric…
From what I know about academia and the people who occupy positions within it, who function solely to gatekeep progress and then ship the bare minimum to keep their privileged positions, I look at articles like this one…
My thoughts exactly. As long as reddit knows we can't quit on them, they've got us cornered. It's like a toxic relationship.
> I have been besieged by dialogs, popups, and notifications asking me to give a program access to a file or removable disk or my downloads folder This is not MacOS's problem. This is an industry-wide problem where…
Conveniently
I just have to say, this is pretty cyberpunk and I'm proud it's San Francisco. That said this comment is a bit low-value so I'll take my downvote if them's the rules.
I know we love to reinvent the wheel here but come on. Dead simple Linux is too programmable, does too many things, so we have to layer Android on top of it so we can do fewer things and then it's magically okay? This…
After experiencing 120Hz it ruined 60Hz monitors for me
I always hoped this meme would make an appearance in an episode of Black Mirror
There's always fasting, calisthenics, and avoiding PUFAs.
