Ironic comment from someone who literally just submitted an AI slop report and went so far as to give it a website and cutsey name to attempt to feign legitimacy and skill behind the "researcher."
>...which is the exact shape of a "Destructive Remote DoS" in the VRP's own rules. The trend of Claude referring to everything as having a "shape" irrationally annoys the hell out of me. What an absolutely idiotic way…
Lots of comments saying the target audience for this is kids and very casual "Insta and Email" users. But they're not releasing it on the Neo or Air. This is, for now, the "proLED" model only. The base model is $2800…
Does your Windows device fold, or do you actually reach up across the keyboard to touch the screen? If these things folded into a tablet mode I might consider it, but stretching your arm out across the desk and keyboard…
Like the OP, I've received multiple "You haven't voted yet!" messages from a state I no longer live in. I also received two messages today saying "Can you please rush in even just $1 right this second to help us get…
I don't think technical knowledge really comes into play here, which is exactly why it's causing such anxiety. If you're a U.S. citizen, enough of your identity is available for sale that this could happen to you, and…
Yeah, that was mentioned as an anecdote on why they believe geo-blocking wouldn't be sufficient, and it happened 5 years ago, in Germany. It's completely irrelevant and Sony has nothing to do with what's happening here.…
What's with all the Sony comments? This has nothing to do with Sony.
I'm feeling paranoid now and wondering if the best defense is to proactively open accounts with Cash App, Venmo, whatever other stupid peer-to-peer wallet apps exist, just to lock down my identity and be in control of…
A lot of this is a massive stretch. It's majority self-hosted which the average person is not going to deal with. Some of the "alternatives" aren't even close. All but one of the Spotify/Apple Music replacements are…
Re: Companies starting to back-off, I've seen several articles like this one https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/enterprise-ai-s... (yes I realize this source is generally anti-ai) Regarding regular people…
So many comments about Holmes, I think, are missing the point. This isn't about Holmes, and neither, IMO, is the article. Like all things Nathan Fielder does, this is a movie by Nathan for Nathan. Elizabeth Holmes is…
What's your threshold for "these days?" Didn't this exact scenario just happen like 3 months ago with Instagram?
The project the blog post is attacking is Artcraft, spearheaded by HN's most vocal AI evangelist zealot. He's stated that he's financing the thing with the revenue from his $3, no $4, no $5M/year AI image generator.…
>If you’re trying to build a Photoshop competitor in the year 2026 you should be building the engine first and then adding all the advanced features on top later, not the other way around. Unless your intention is just…
Read the article. The police were well aware. They're on body/doorbell cams multiple times commenting that "this house always gets swatted" or otherwise acknowledging that the call is probably fake. Then they run in…
Not only that, but according to another article, the victim had to pay the stalker/site operator after losing the case. >A judge also ordered Mr Tomlinson to pay the anonymous blogger behind the website $23,700 in legal…
Unfortunately in many countries you can't participate in society without WhatsApp. Where I'm at in South America, not having a WhatsApp is about equivalent to not having a phone number at all in the U.S.
The few times I've resigned myself to asking Gemini or ChatGPT something I couldn't find an answer to, my experience has been the same. 100% of the time. An LLM has never, not once, given me a correct answer or not lied…
A reverse image search of the guy turns up a bunch of different ad campaigns, most prominently for something called Darigold. From their site: - https://www.darigold.com/wp-content/uploads/Product-Card-Lif... Here's two…
This is clickbait. The way they put "ads" in quotes every time shows they know what they're doing. I've seen some other comments here complaining about ads in Maps (which I've never used and can't speak to), but this…
If fake screenshots, repetitious turbo-verbosity that turns every paragraph into a brain-breaking dadaist poem, and superfluous jargon-dropping doesn't convince you, what will?!
Because it's useful in aiding in development. "Telemetry" is not "spying" or "collecting personal information" or whatever else uninformed people like this blog author try to dramatize it as. Telemetry is anonymous…
Was the linked article written by a confused AI? There's no such thing as Airglow Browser. The entire article describes in great detail something that doesn't exist. Then it provides a link to "download the binary at…
