silence7 OP , to technology in How Googlers cracked an SF rival's tech model with a single word | A research team from the tech giant got ChatGPT to spit out its private training data

The paper it links to does in detail: by asking it to repeat “poem” forever

silence7 OP , to technology in U.S. stops helping Big Tech spot foreign meddling amid GOP legal threats

There is some history of limiting the reach of actual national government sponsored influence campaigns like this. It hasn’t been perfect, but it hasn’t been zero either.

silence7 OP , to technology in We Spied on Trump's 'Southern White House' From Our Couches | Tracking people in-and-out of Mar-a-Lago was easy, thanks to commercial software. Think your privacy is any better protected?

Your boss cares the moment somebody starts to unionize the shop.

It’s not really protected though; companies you interact with are using it to target ads.

silence7 , to technology in Firefox now supports clean URLs with the new "Copy link without site tracking" option

Tested New York Times, Bloomberg, Washington Post, and Nature, and they seemed to work (unlike the one built-in on Mastodon, which fails on all of those)

It however did not however strip all the tracking parameters - some of the stuff indicating that a link was shared by an Android user from the New York Times didn’t get stripped off.

Eg: www.nytimes.com/…/punk-museum-las-vegas.html?unlo…

kept the smid=nytcore-android-share

These things also all strip off the tokens which make gift links work

Edit looks like I was wrong on this

silence7 , to news in Trump hints at expanded role for the military within the US. A legacy law gives him few guardrails

This is incredibly concerning because he’s also planning to purge the civil service and military of anybody who might object. It’s a recipe for a rapid and total end to democracy in the US.

silence7 OP , to cooking in How to Minimize Indoor Air Pollution When Cooking at Home

Was not aware.

There are quieter hoods out there - lots which are a lot quieter than a typical vacuum cleaner. Tough to choose if you’re a renter though.

Get therapy for the noise fear and use the hood.

silence7 OP , to cooking in How to Minimize Indoor Air Pollution When Cooking at Home

yeah. What they’re not talking about so much (but which can also help) is keeping the temperature down while frying. Some of the newer induction stoves and hot plates have temperature sensors so you can reliably keep temperatures just below the point where the oil starts to smoke and produce a lot of particulates.

Those look cool but very expensive compared with most ebikes

silence7 OP , to technology in Heat-pump water heaters are a winner for the climate — and your wallet

I’m expecting US methane gas prices to rise to match the much higher global LNG price due to the large number of export terminals under construction.

silence7 OP , to technology in Heat-pump water heaters are a winner for the climate — and your wallet

If methane gas is cheap because you’re in the US, don’t count on it staying that way; there are a ton of export terminals under construction, and when completed, they’ll raise domestic prices in the US to match those on the world market, which are 2-3x higher.

silence7 OP , to technology in Heat-pump water heaters are a winner for the climate — and your wallet

Here’s the thing: it costs a lot to replace a water heater, and they tend to fail after 20 or 30 years. It’s completely OK to say ‘spend this way instead of that way’ when people are forced to spend anyways
