I work for a fairly large company, and we’re hearing about “AI” constantly. CoPilot is available and its use encouraged. Also, in the cybersecurity space, AI is fucking everywhere. Vendors won’t shut up about their “AI Enabled” products. And the new hotness is “Agentic AI”, which is basically automation, but we’re going to let AI hallucinations fire off the automated process which could bring production systems down.
Good times are surely coming. /s
It looks like archive.org is capturing some of lemm.ee. So, it’s possible that most of the images are there and could be referenced.
He got tired of shoveling corporate shit and decided to put those skills to use for himself, shoveling chicken shit.
With a long, strong, flexible tongue and a reputation for eating things, one of those collaborations basically writes itself.
I was talking about his mechanics in Brawl Stars, what were you thinking about, sicko?
Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, they will accept you for your virtue. If the gods are unjust, then they weren’t worth worshiping anyway. And if there are no gods, then at least you lived a good life to be remembered by .
An Operating System is a tool. Would you be annoyed because you had to use a hex key on a bolt with a hex socket, when what you really like using is a robertson drive? If the work you are doing is dependent on a particular OS choice, then use that OS and get over yourself.
That said, if this is for work and you want to avoid the crapware in Windows 11, talk with your IT team. By default, Recall is removed on commercially managed devices. I’m not 100% sure, and can’t be arsed to look it up at the moment, but this likely refers to devices managed via Intune. Assuming your IT team isn’t stuck in the 90’s, they are probably doing this already. Telemetry can also be mostly disabled via Group Policy, and many IT organizations will already be doing this. Or, as you have arrived at, use a Mac and disable the telemetry.
On the other side of that coin, if you expect privacy on a work owned device, I have bad news for you. More and more organizations are using Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) products on all endpoint devices. Yes, this includes Mac and Linux devices. So, your organization is watching you browse porn on your work device. If you are doing something and you don’t want someone watching over your shoulder, don’t use a work device. Keep your work device for work and your personal device for everything else.
When my father’s dog was getting towards the end of his life, my father would order an extra burger patty, with nothing else for the dog. He figured the dog was close enough to the end of his life, the occasional burger patty wasn’t going to cause meaningful harm and it gave the dog a nice treat.
You may have had a customer with a similar situation.
But, we’ll know where the aircraft is. It’s a built in, instant location flare. No more aircraft disappearing and not being found.
It seems that internal polling put the “weird” message as not really helping (or hurting) the Harris campaign. Arguably, keeping up the “weird” message may have been useful, but they were likely trying to find something that seemed to have a larger impact.
The short answer is, it’s what we were taught in school. Like many preferences, it’s shaped by the culture we grow up and live in.
I’m sorry but it doesn’t make sense to me.
Of course not, you were raised and live in a different culture; so, your preferences are different.
Ultimately, the right answer is ISO8601. It’s unambiguous and sorts well on computers. But, I don’t think any culture is teaching that as the primary way to write dates, so we’re stuck with the crappy ways.
Imagine the flight envelope as a graph. Going further to the right means going faster. Going further up means going higher. The goal of test flights is to push against the upper-right hand corner of that envelope. Unfortunately, that’s also where your postage gets stamped.
Crypto is a ponzi scheme playacting at being a currency or investment vehicle. Meme coins just dispense with playacting and aim for shorter time horizons on cashing out from the ponzi scheme.
Um yay, I guess. I’m always for more options. And maybe there is a market out there for the “game from the cloud” idea. Personally though, I’d rather just play a game on the Steam Deck directly. Or, if that’s somehow not an option, stream the game from my own PC to my TV via SteamLink. In no world do I want to pay for a subscription to play games on a device where I can just play that game locally.
Maybe just take them away from their abusive parents, keep them out of the horrors of WWI and provide a better society for them to grow up and live in which isn’t facing crippling post war sanctions. For as evil as Hitler turned out, a lot of that was probably shaped by the environment he grew up and lived in. And the environment in which he rose to prominence and power was not something he set up. While it might seem an easy solution to snuff out baby Hitler, and in no way am I trying to excuse what Hitler did, it’s entirely possible that someone else would have done the same things, if Hitler didn’t exist.
If we want to not have horrible, mass murdering fuck-heads, we need to create societies which don’t promote the creation and elevation of mass murdering fuck-heads.
Personally, I prefer that it’s all in one place. It’s hard enough to get teams to update any sort of asset inventory in one place. Getting them to update it in two, and keep everything in sync, sounds like a disaster begging to happen. And, as a heavy consumer of my organization’s CMDB (I work in cybersecurity), I much prefer having only one place to look.
The most successful CMDB I’ve ever seen was a single, unified asset tracking system which included all relevant asset details, asset owner, technical PoC and compliance documentation. The reason it was so successful was that NAC was tied to the CMDB. If a system wasn’t in the CMDB, it got dumped in a very locked down VLAN which was really only useful for new system setup. Once a system was configured, the appropriate paperwork submitted, and the system added to the CMDB, it would then be automagically moved to the appropriate VLAN for it’s location/function. When a system owner or technical PoC left the organization, one of the required workflows was reassigning all assets in the CMDB. This all worked surprisingly, especially considering that the CMDB was a bespoke Classic ASP website written in VB6, with some newer pages being VB.Net in C#.
That’s part of their new “Plane cleaning fee” program. Each passenger is offered the special opportunity to “upgrade” their flight experience with a recently cleaned and less horrible interior ambiance. If enough passengers opt in for this upgrade, the cabin will be cleaned. The fee is non-refundable, and the cleaning only gets done in the event that more that 75% of the passengers opt in.
My personal preference is to use FOSS whenever it’s practical. For home use, I’ve switched to FOSS for the vast majority of my computing needs. I run Linux on both my server and desktop. Most of the software on my server is FOSS, with the one exception being a container using the Splunk free license. My desktop is running Linux, and I use LibreOffice for documents and the like. I do run Visual Studio Code, which is technically Open Source, though I would not put it past Microsoft to do a rug-pull on that eventually. And I have an extensive library of games with Steam, basically nothing of which is Open Source.
I have reached a point, financially, that piracy is not morally defensible. And I’m not willing to get into the mire of if, or where such a line would be. I believe that creators should be rewarded for their work. Though, I also agree that the limits on copyright are way out of whack with the changes Disney has purchased through the years. So, piracy as a moral question is a murky subject, with no clear answers to me. But, the end result is that I buy games, movies or TV shows. For other software, I usually look to FOSS projects (e.g. Gimp vs Photoshop, FreeCAD/OpenSCAD vs Autodesk), free licenses (e.g. Splunk) or just do without. For TV Shows/Movies, if it’s not on one of the streaming services I subscribe to, I may buy it via a digital service; or, I do without.
Companies taking advantage of Linux to create locked down, proprietary systems is pretty common. For example, Android is Linux. Many smart TVs run some flavor of Linux. E.g. Tizen from Samsung is Linux based. If a company can short cut the software development process and licensing costs by using Linux, that’s often a first choice. So, my bet would be on Wall-E running on a version of Linux.
The dystopian part would be that the company locked it’s drivers behind a closed source model, and only included highly obscured binaries on Wall-E’s OS. Motors and controllers would be non-standard, requiring closed source firmware and the hardware would refuse to work with any software which isn’t signed by an original manufacturer’s digital certificate. Using an unsigned binary would blow a fuse in Wall-E’s CPU, killing him.
it’s steam game which means there’s a key?
Maybe.
If the game is already in your Steam account, no. I can’t seem to run the actual policy down with a quick search, but games in your Steam library are not transferable.
If you have received a key in your email (It’ll be a long, alphanumeric sequence) then you can forward that to someone else, so long as it hasn’t been used by you or anyone else.
If the game was sent as a gift to your Steam account using the Steam gift system. Then no, you cannot transfer it.
ICE was formed in 2002, following the attacks which destroyed the World Trade Center. Like basically everything the US did in the wake of that attack (e.g. Patriot Act) this has been an absolute disaster and should be rolled back.
