Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be “more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence.”...

There needs to be a fine far larger than the contract to have any hope of curtailing this behavior.

The people making the decisions should be in jail. I don’t know if this is fraud in the legal sense but this is literally fraudulent behavior.

barsquid ,

You had to log your time to the minute? I would quit instantly if my job got down to 5m increments, fuck that shit. Sounds like it is a former job so you made the right decision getting out of there.

barsquid ,

This company is doomed lol. Fucking dimwits.

barsquid ,

Nepo babies understand each other’s need to suck money from people who produce the value.

barsquid ,

This should not be possible. It should not be possible to use the software at all without a warrant.

barsquid ,

Is this for business or personal? Both? Other? I’m wondering about differences in daily interactions when running Plan 9.

barsquid ,

Content creators should move to a platform that isn’t pushing far-right radicalization to kids watching video game streamers if they’d like me to pay for a premium account.

barsquid ,

Oh, bundling. I thought societies were pleased to get rid of cable bundling, why is it coming back?

barsquid ,

TIL I should be posting hundreds of AI-generated long form video essays to reddit.

barsquid ,

Why are the things people are paying YouTube for not on topic when discussing payments to YouTube?

barsquid ,

Well, damn, there goes that idea.

barsquid ,

It turns out people like you and I are also far-right. They call it “liberal” (usually spelled “shitlib”), and you are just as evil as everyone else who isn’t them.

barsquid ,

Oh. Donald must have bought some Bitcoins so it is time to pump for a dump.

barsquid ,

This is it. He had a taste of pump and dump securities fraud with the SPAC. He has spotted a new scam.

barsquid ,

As long as you don’t post any uncomfortable facts about China.

barsquid ,

Why is this guy whining about his life being ruined? The courts might not be able to prove he was going to rape any children but that little girl texting for help could tell what he was planning.

What he did was at a minimum enough to form some seriously fucked up core memories that stay with them for life. Imagine trying to trust anyone outside of your family ever again after getting drugged by your friend’s dad.

Sobbing about his life being upset, fuck’s sake.

barsquid ,

Help! Universities are silencing regressives!

barsquid ,

News websites are cowardly and/or the courts are not doing their job stopping bullshit lawsuits.

barsquid ,

How I wish that were true.

barsquid ,

I do enjoy seeing a horse rocketing off into the stratosphere or using the skeletal animation from a bipedal NPC.

barsquid ,

No, that one will have my full consent.

barsquid ,

To be fair to you, you don’t have a photo library of millions of children from infant to teen to train your neurons on.

barsquid ,

I am an idiot.

barsquid ,

A thin-skinned and extremely fragile clown.

barsquid ,

I don’t know if this explains the entire price but we have all seen his securities fraud on Twitter.

barsquid ,

Council of sheepdogs to decide if foxes are criminally liable for murder or if we should use pinky swears and the honor system.

barsquid ,

Are analog gauges more expensive or they just cannot show ads while the driver is idling?

barsquid ,

Anti-Snap is pro-consumer. Using Ubuntu at all is anti-consumer, I would rather Mint or just Debian.

barsquid ,

It’s both. They’re very stupid and cruel. They vote for Donald.

HP bricks ProBook laptops with bad BIOS delivered via automatic updates — many users face black screen after Windows pushes new firmware (www.tomshardware.com)

On May 26, a user on HP’s support forums reported that a forced, automatic BIOS update had bricked their HP ProBook 455 G7 into an unusable state. Subsequently, other users have joined the thread to sound off about experiencing the same issue....

barsquid ,

Are we sure it is the BIOS? Perhaps these people have run out of magenta subpixels or their printer ink subscription has lapsed.

barsquid ,

I have a no HP policy because of their printers and a no Samsung policy because of their TVs.

I had a stock Debian install actually rename the device for my NIC when I changed GPUs. You should double-check if your NIC has the same entry in /dev with and without the GPU. After I changed the name in some config files the NIC worked fine with the GPU in, it could be easy as that.

barsquid ,

I read through your screenshot. The ip command has enp3s0 and the config has enp2s0, I think this might be it.

barsquid ,

This is visually beautiful but makes me long for a few days ago when the weekend was ahead of me.

barsquid ,

You should check out the Fedora atomic distros if you haven’t already. Making the system work more like a git repo is what they are doing with rpm-ostree. I am liking it a lot.

barsquid ,

Your files are a mutable part, they stick around for rebase and rollback. (I believe /etc also.) If it’s only files in a home directory you could try a different DE by making a new user. But yeah I don’t think it has a built-in solution for something like that.

barsquid ,

If you have a spare homelab machine Fedora does an immutable build called IoT (they branded it wrong it’s just a barebones install appropriate for servers also).

barsquid ,

What’d you dislike about Incus that libvirt does easier? I’m on a similar trajectory as you. I have Incus on Debian but I am transitioning to IoT for that machine. I kinda like Incus. I want to attach USB devices to a couple of my containers, it was a learning curve but eventually worked out alright.

barsquid ,

I’m trying to make a TPM chip work out of curiosity and it has been frustrating. Does that help?

barsquid ,

Don’t colliding galaxies mostly not actually touch? I thought there’s so much space between everything it’s almost entirely gravitational interactions. I’d assume almost no huge annihilation events from that, or extremely low frequency.

barsquid ,

Are there other theoretical interactions or consequences of interest if neutrinos turn out to be their own antiparticle? That idea is blowing my mind.

barsquid ,

Another reason on my list why to never buy a Tesla.

barsquid ,

Samsung certainly seem very aware of return window timing. 8.5 years is much better!

I wish some of this stuff was more standardized. In an ideal world one should be able to just replace a motor and keep on going. (Like without needing to learn any wiring and so on.)

barsquid ,

I agree with you but I assume they want Debian for a reason.

barsquid ,

No, they’re still voting for Congressmembers complicit in shielding Donald from justice. If their representatives were for the rule of law they would have impeached him over the insurrection (if not over extorting a foreign country (if they were for the rule of law they would have heard evidence)) and ensured he was barred from office. Conservatives either don’t feel it in their bones or they have hollow jelly bones that buckle when promised a mild short-term tax incentive.

barsquid ,

What help am I not accepting? What does acceptance even look like, I should pat them on the head for trying to walk back the decades of propaganda? They’re doing this but in November the majority of Repubs will still vote for Donald and the reps supporting him.

barsquid ,

Yeah that’s pretty much the definition of a hate crime. They’re doing it specifically to scare and intimidate people of certain groups. I hope the charges stick.
