…I feel like openssh has a much larger attack surface than a simple binary.

Right. This is just trading one set of security pitfalls with a second, much worse set of security pitfalls.

I wish it would combine comments for crossposts. It doesn’t have to break per-server instance bans or anything like that. Just combine the comments for servers that are friendly with each other.

Some of the more extreme-minded liberals do a good enough job at sabotaging themselves and the movements they are a part of, without the need for malicious saboteurs. Like Atheist+ or progressive stack.

Then again, Russians orgs are out there, trying to influence politic movements and sabotage others. GamerGate was an entire sea of political actors, journalists, influencers, and Russian agents, trying to push their own narratives to the point of mass disinformation from both sides, with the general public on either side confused and angry at the other’s responses.

Defund means to essentially get rid of a department or thing. The phrase “defend the police” means “get rid of the police”. It doesn’t matter if there’s some cartoon to re-explain away the phrase or a bunch of other people trying to re-define the English language. English is English, and words have meaning.

The “defund the police” movement failed because us liberals don’t fucking understand marketing. Like, at all. I can’t count the number of times some liberal movement crops up with their slogan and Republicans turn that slogan against them because nobody spent the ten minutes time to think about how that phrase or thing could be abused. For example, that brief time when the LGBT movement wanted to rename themselves to LGBTQIA2SUVWTFBBQ? Seriously?!?

It’s like naming your baby “Assman McAssface” and wondering why he gets bullied in school.

Agent Smth?

I use it all the time. It works fine.

Obviously, LTT doesn’t see the long-term benefit of retraining his team to not be attached to monthly subscription bullshit.

Short-term quarterly-profit energy.

“Processed”

A friendly reminder that GIMP and Da Vinci Resolve are things that exist.

Probably a seasonal thing between months. Music and books seem to be on the rise here.

Well, another party that is willing to actually govern is welcome to stand up for itself and replace the GOP.

Until that happens, we have the GOP, a party that is ran by gaslighting, obstructionism, and projection, who’s real purpose has been laid bare for decades: To take our government, and “reduce it to the size where [they] can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub”. And the Democrats, a party that has its own flaws, but actually wants to enact laws and run the country.

One of these parties wants to actively destroy our government, and one of them doesn’t.

That’s kind of a global problem, not really tied to the industry as a whole.

The difference is that a CS degree is actually useful. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people with a bachelors/masters in some random degree (like math or music) that end up getting a programming job.

The programming industry is only growing. Tools like CoPilot and modern IDE might may it slightly easier, but there is no shortage of things that need development.

Music is so easy to make nowadays, and everybody wants to be a musician. It is an extreme oversaturated industry, and people keep falling into the same mistake of making it a career choice.

Same with acting, art, writing, and most creative positions.

That requires a functional Congress, which is really only achieved by getting rid of the GOP disease in all three branches.

Sigh, not this article again. No, they can’t “deepfake a person with one photo”. They can create a bad uncanny-valley 75% accurate version of one.

The power of those chips matters a great deal. If China is producing mostly chips supporting IoT devices, and its imports are computer chips of the Intel/AMD variety, it doesn’t have nearly as much impact as the title implies.

No. No, they can’t. This shit still takes lots and lots of training data.

It’s just like any job. You can’t just fully fake something in one day. At best, you might get 60% of the way there, maybe 80% after adding on some generic experience. But, you’re not going to fully mimic anything without lots of training and experience.

Internet Archive is also doing this with web pages, sooo…
