In an ideal world, IDs wouldn't need to be traceable, just a secret number with a password to verify. But we have something called Imperialism.

Hostile Printers

In your opinion, do you think there are any legitimate and/or constructive uses for AI/LLMs? in c/technology@lemmy.ml
[–] LiamTheBox@lemmy.ml -1 points 4 weeks ago

AI has a use case, but after trying to use LLMs for generative content like creative writing or storytelling, I think it more of a word salad. Unless you are one of those pros thay can generate content that looks human, no idea how they do it.

Terms of Service: The Length of Common Digital Contracts Do you take the time to read the terms of service before you agree to when downloading the latest app or software?

Of course you do…

The world is awash with apps and internet services that ask potential users to agree to a service agreement. Most people click on ‘agree’ and move on, knowing that reading the service agreements could put them to sleep and defer their favorite internet fix.

By managing I mean moving files from one hard drive to another while connected to a Steam Deck dock.

Maybe 16gb is not enough?

I was managing two external hard drives and the files app froze, asking me if I wanted to force close or wait.

After closing, the screen went black and I had to restart it.

Is this normal? I don't know if it gets overloaded with many desktop apps like QBittorrent and Brave Browser.

They have grown with more money and their view towards lower classes has been blinded.

Yeah, one or two AI datacenters is not so bad. But I think it will become unmanageable when it grows with 30 companies building 10 each

"I Think pedophiles and terrorists are horrible. Not as humans, but their opinions"

"But I believe they have the right to voice their opinions"

FIRST they deleted the video games related to "incest" content

~~NOW they shadowbanned "MouthWashing" from itch.io (a horror videogame)~~

(Actually, Mouthwashing is fine)

After the British spilled the beans with the Online Safety Act 2023 (Effective today), I wondered if there were any leaks I could use to prove forced verification is not the way the internet should be built, parents need to be liable for such things children do, not the server room hosted in Vietnam, I may not agree what the servers contain but this is not how you solve a problem.

Turns out a 4Chan user leaked hundreds of photos by finding a "public firebase storage bucket". It has now been made private and gives an 403 error, but the damage is done, its already in torrents and there is no way to reverse such action.

Someone has already made a location list based on the photos (allegedly, I could not find such metadata in the photos yet).

Just wanted to make an informational post for fun, I cannot show any "illegal numbers" here, sorry.
