Exactly, and it’s easier to make them user serviceable that way too.

I’ve never understood the desire to make $1k+ electronics super thin, but then again I step on things a lot. I guess the fragility could be a form of planned obsolescence.

Or maybe stop trying to make expensive electronics as thin as possible.

Exactly. The problem is there’s only 3 manufacturers who make the chips that go into ram sticks.

Considering Crucial is killing consumer chip production, and is only one of three companies making consumer chips, no.

Considering the worldwide rise of fascism, I have doubts this is intended to benefit the citizens.

The problem is the state, not the surveillance. Surveillance does have legitimate societal benefits, but like any tool what matters is how it’s used.

It’s working because Edge isn’t IE and it’s actually a decent browser. It’s just Microsoft chromium instead of Google chromium.

I have my router powering my pi, so rebooting the router will reboot the DNS server.

Also enable Game Mode which typically turns off some of the smart TV functions.

Not to mention that cosmic ray bit flips are extremely rare. A sys admin might encounter one or two during their entire career, if any.

Apparently he’s never heard of a hobby before.

And also exactly how copyright licensing has always worked.

But this article is about Australia.

It’ll work out well for authoritarian governments wanting to restrict Internet access

The real question is when the wipe happened. If it happened after he was informed they were taking the phone as evidence, then that’s bad for him.

But otherwise they’d have to convince a jury that he could see the future.

Vehicle numbers are also an important metric to look at, as they grew about 16-17% during the same timeframe. Add the two together and you’re not far from 26.5%.

It sounds like you’re interpreting this as Flock using people to generate data that’s passed off to customers as being AI generated.

That’s not what’s happening. They’re using people to generate data to train the AI model.

It doesn’t make it better because they’re still using slave labor, but it’s different than them passing off the work of humans as AI.

The people working in the sweat shops are generating training data for the AI, not producing results and calling them AI generated.

Yes, I did.

8.8.9 is the fully hardened version, but the 8.8.7 update should have fixed the vulnerability since from what I can tell the publicly available self signed cert was being used for the exploit.

It’s a bit concerning that neither the article or Notepad++s blog post say what the affected version is, or what the minimum safe version is.

I’m assuming the minimum version is 8.8.7 since that’s when they moved away from self signed certs, but it would be nice to hear it from the horse’s mouth.
