Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

I know too many devs to have my body require a firmware update.

Is this really any different from Spectre and other types of attacks? Except those targeted predictive execution.

But, but, it’s contributing to the entropy of the universe!

10-15? That’s childs play. I honestly read probably an order of magnitude more than that.

Ironically Sync can block entire instances.

MHz refers to the samples per second, not the pitch. CD audio for example is 16-bit/44.1kHz. What that means is there are 16-bits of sampling (audio) taken 44,100 times per second. DSD on the other hand is 1-bit samples taken 11.2 million times per second, this is referred to as DSD256. What that translates to is a digital wave that looks a lot closer to an analog wave than a CD does. It has nothing to do with the frequency of listening in this case.

Oh I’m not absolving them of their culpability either, however there is a two pronged approach that is happening right now. The first are those mouth pieces as you listed, but then there is the amplification of the message that is occuring and guiding conversations that is the work on troll farms. This more natural “grass roots” conversation is what I’m likening to their concerns about AI. The difference is you’re just taking the human out of the equation.

Unlike the GOP is already doing via Russia troll farms?

How it’s implemented can vary, but you’re gonna take one of three approaches

• Microsegmentstion - On a home network this is the hardest but ensures there’s no overlap
• Separate VLAN - this is usually good if your router can support it and have multiple gateways for each VLAN. Your router can then restrict traffic. Unifi gear does this well and I use this set up to segment my guest and IoT traffic
• Separate subnets - if your router doesn’t support multiple VLANs this can work, but you still need a router that supports it

The latter two can actually work with an unmanaged switch as long as you tag your vlans correctly. The key is having a router than can handle it.

It’s probably the most secure,. commonly available, messaging platform right now. They keep a bare minimum of metadata on their servers. Basically enough to link you on the platform. After that, everything is e2e encrypted and they can’t tell authorities anything.

Other platforms are a sliding scale from to/from/time data, all the way up to full messages.

Maybe mentally I’ve already been hit with inflation, but $2 and “significant increase” do not tie out to me.

Pregnant and he was 59?

I did that as a kid in school passing notes!

Publicly traceable and verifiable hashes of the images authenticity. Submitting a hash of the image can prove who submitted it and when and then any altering of the image would yield a different hash which you would know you’re not looking at the original image.

I know Blockchain is always in search of a solution, but is this one place where it may work? Take a hash of the image and store that hash in a chain, that way you can always hash the image and see if it’s been altered?

Did they turn out alright though?

I give credit to the admins of Lemmy.world. Because their instance blew up in popularity, they went through and did some optimizations to DB and other queries. What’s even better is they’ve submitted the PRs so all instances can scale as smoothly going forward.

It’s a flerkin.

Ever seen the Animatrix? Shows how the machines rose up to enslave humans. They used nuclear weapons against humans because the radiation hurt humans but not them, even though an EMP would. If anything I think our AI overlord would start with a chemical weapon since that won’t hurt them at all and there’s no chance for getting caught in the blast or the EMP wave.
