No fucking way. This is not a valid solution.

Don’t you learn from history?

You have other way than locking and taking the control of everybody computer (as smartphone are today).

Look how the corporation are trying to reduce our liberty by removing us the choice of choosing our marketplace, locking our applications, removing our capacity to say no to IA, actively scanning our photos, videos, making link between our contacts, our needs, our interests.

This is already to much power too give to external people.

And you want to give even more? The total control of what can be used on it?

Are you that blind?

For this problem, only one solution: parenting!

Stop deporting local issue to worlwide consequences.

Discussing with the kids about the risks and why they should be wary of these social networks for their future is the only way.

These platforms are no different than drugs and alcohol. You can deal with it with good parenting.

And definitely not by screwing everybody else with more control. It’s just an excuse anyway. And it’s far far far worse that having gouvernement ID card.

We all have one here, than doesn’t block us to manifest.

You could look at the mods and checks if some remove the brain visuals. And don’t go on the first floor during the intro :p

it’s a big but not really the good place to talk about it. It’s months later, they can’t say more without putting at risk the dev if they add something more personal.

And they can’t do anything more than that… sharing what happened and how they reacted and adapted to this situation. .

Probably technical. A too big variation (hertz, voltage in this case?) can trigger an automatic disconnection from other networks. The cut in France was quick to fix as soon they isolated the Spain network and rerouted/decreased/increased production from others part of Europe.

Because, even today, you can’t and will never have a 100% reliable answer.

You need to have at least 2 different validators to reduce the probability of errors. And you can’t just say, let’s run this check twice by AI as they will have the same flaw. You need to check it with a different point of view (being in term of technology or ressource/people).

This is the principle we apply in aeronautics since decades, and even with these layers of precautions and security, you still have accident.

ML is like the aircraft industry a century ago, safety rules will be written with the blood of the victims of this technology.

Can’t encourages you enough to buy this brand. Real good products, well done and the attention of details make your case build so nice and easy. You can see they know how to build a computer. Lot of possible variations.

I’m am customer of Fractal Deign since several decades now, bough 6 or 7 cases and never had issues, very good quality product. These cases leave my house only because i donated them to my family.

With all this shit going on, I’m happy to see him smile.

First, you could see from his body language that he was worried to have to delay his call (could have been a critical information), hopping it would not upset Macron, then the relief and big smile when Emmanuel told probably “Yes, sure buddy. take your time”

I have a lot of respect for Zelenskyy because you need resilience to handle the crazy pressure and responsibility he encounter everyday.

I really hope he will survive this mess, not killed by a FSB or CIA agent/coup.

i have pihole, will add unbound to my todo list

Not Maggie S.?

Yes, lost my long-time friend and fiancée (a car hit us… I survived, she didn’t) while coming back from the beach. We were living together, doing our studies together at the same university and we were in planification stage of our wedding and may be soon parent (i will never know…)

I’ve dropped all of that, couldn’t continue without her, never came back to my town and moved far from it. I switched off my brain for 6 months, refiling paper and ink in a littke shop.

So a complete change of life due to a 5 min event and a drunk driver who didn’t stop to help…

One day, a little old lady who i was helping told me a sentence i will never forgot: “young man, you seems very intelligent/clever… i hope you don’t plan to do your actual job forever”

She was rigth, i was destroying myself in this shitty job. So i sent resume to the big companies around me, at random. To do something totally different than my original formation.

I got hired in a very big corpororation at a middle entry level (as i didn’t got my engineer diploma). In the following decades, I’ve focused only on my job (was still in denial), slowly raising in the organization, and I’ve managed to have a very good career that exceed now - by far - the level i would had with the initial diploma. And because i started by the low level, i have a real good experience that help me a lot today.

But all this success and money didn’t stop me to encounter several depression periods, burn-out, etc… I’m following a therapy since my last very serious depression 2 years ago but i’m still unable to get in couple. I’m still working on that.

Sometime, i wonder what could have been our life if we departed 5 min earlier or later. Or if i didn’t encounter this old grandma (probably dead today) in this shop.

It’s crazy how our life and direction can be so random.

May be… it’s been a while for me too. I remember loving the ambiance and music of this game… Good idea when the weather is bad (if it will work under linux).

They will now create fake CEO profiles (with machine learning capability) available only on Zoom due to safety concerns.

May be one day, they will also replace the CEO by an AI agent. That won’t be worst than today anyway…

I’ve created an automation to skip automaticaly all the HA “new update available” events until we pass the 15th of the month. And unskip them after the 15th (as it could happens than no new update is published after the 15th… but it’s quite rare).

Combined with full backup, i never had a issue that couldn’t be reversed quickly.

This one: https://youtu.be/d9NzY8TDCAY?t=19m00s (’Steve Loses It’ chapter)

Yeah… i had to replay it too. He was quite upset.

Steve has no patience for people or company that lack empathy and abuse people.

Remind me his reaction to the email of Artesian CEO, he was quite upset too.

I totally agree with you here. These rules don’t make racism disappear but make it far more difficult to use it as a tool (passively or on-purpose).

At least if someone (anybody, including politician, company) use these terms, they will be immediatly stopped with more ease than your current system.

You still have a need for watcher (justice system, neutral party like associations) to keep track BUT nothing official can track your race in any documents at all level. That include the resume of an employe or even a customers service listing. You will have immediate sanction and bad PR for the company/individual if you do that.

Same for your religion or your political party by the way. They are too much officialy tracked and categorized!

Racism will always exists unfortunately but all these laws can reduce the global impact on the population. And put on shame the one using it as discriminative element.

We are in 2024 and they still use the word “race” to segregate the American population in several groups. So no surprise a DNA service could be so popular in the USA.

If they were American citizen and just that - without subdivision and the legal right to ask or use their gene, color skin or whatever_they_think_is_important_to_distinguish_themself - well a lot of issues and strange “behaviour” (aka racisme) would have disapeared.

Or at least decreased as nobody would have the legal tools and data to enforce it: gerrymanding, blaming a vote on a “community”, having your town split in “community” sectors and no shame at all to call it like that officially! Which others country put “chinatown” on their map?

As a teenager, I was shocked by this fact when visiting the USA 25 years ago. That and the fact i have found in a normal marketplace unprotected ammunition sold near the baby milk. “baby stuff, baby stuff, 9mm ammo… what!?!”

This DNA service is just the result of this global problem: the american society and its laws are still allowing passive racism.

So americans want to prove (to themself, to others?) via DNA results that they can’t be racist because they have a black friend sorry : black DNA ancestors.

Some will tell you: “ho it’s just for fun”. But is fun really the only motivation here?

And congrat to them as they don’t only expose themself (genetic data are priceless and should be protected at all costs) but also they expose all their children, children’s children, etc. These chidren probably wouldn’t have agreed to that if they were born.

We have to thanks Vivendi group (a shitty conglomerate from my country who killed a lot of good products) who have forced Gabe to move to online sale as Valve couldn’t adapt the bad reseller contract they had with this Vivendi (who tried later to kill their business via lawsuit).

If you didn’t see it yet, have a look on the 20 years documentary of HL2. Really interesting.

ho, you are still using street ligths?

It’s been years that we cut them on a lot of major axis and after midnight in my town for all the classic roads.

It’s mainly to reduce the electricity bill, have less night pollution (more stars in the sky!) and reduce the speed of the cars when the road is empty (quite effective!).

Side note: since now few years, our cars are sold with front lights always active for visibility purpose (these small lights are cut only when we switching to the big ones)

I load the gun, put it on my head, pull the trigger but i don’t want to die!
