2OEH8eoCRo0··on US man given prison sentence for bot-farming music streams
I thought using bots in a misleading and inauthentic way was free speech. What about Elon's stock pumping twitter bots?
2OEH8eoCRo0··on US man given prison sentence for bot-farming music streams
How is that not protected by the first amendment?
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Across the Globe, People Increasingly Say Social Media Is Harming Democracy
Opposing viewpoints I can live with but I think it's used to feed people a warped reality which they respond to in predictable and useful ways.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Across the Globe, People Increasingly Say Social Media Is Harming Democracy
Social network -> social media -> media
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Across the Globe, People Increasingly Say Social Media Is Harming Democracy
The cynicism in these comments is proving their point.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Visa, Mastercard, Major Banks Facing New Litigation over 'Anticompetitive' Fees
Exactly. Courts will ask why they can charge high fees and not lose customers. The answer will be that they are anticompetitive or behaving as a cartel or monopoly would.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Shipping JPEG XL in Chrome
Why do browsers need to support every media format? Why can't it be shipped as a shared library for the whole system to use?
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Former German spy chief arrested for attempted treason
Ah, sorry I was thinking of 2023.

> A German military officer has been sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison for spying for Russia.

2OEH8eoCRo0··on Former German spy chief arrested for attempted treason
It's weird that so many Germans are sympathetic to Russia given that they were subjugated by Russia for decades.

Can someone please explain what's going on here? What am I culturally missing?

First China and now Russia? We can't allow a pandemic gap!

I use "auto" in vscode which likely selects for cheapest. Good enough!

Which is it? Discuss or don't go there.

2OEH8eoCRo0··on Accept 'bad things' in return for benefits of AI, says Sam Altman
Bad things like what? Armed psychopaths targeting AI executives?
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Improper redaction reveals Google Data Center water and electricity usage
Accidental improper redaction on purpose!
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Car is a smartphone on wheels. Here's who's listening
It feels like resistance to all this money is futile. Just look around here. All of this shit was built by programmers while we bicker over privacy, security, and surveillance endlessly. You can't fight the obscene big tech compensation.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on VGHF Digital Archive passes 5000 magazines. Here's what's next
I'd be interested to know their scanning setup and workflow.

2OEH8eoCRo0··on Redditor buys used CPU, turns out it was banned on Valorant and they are SoL
That's one of my theories. Money got involved and here we are. Now games are serious business! Remember when they were just fun?
2OEH8eoCRo0··on Redditor buys used CPU, turns out it was banned on Valorant and they are SoL
When did video games get so serious that we need to do these things? Ridiculous.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on FTC is investigating OpenAI, Anthropic and other AI companies over product risks
You aren't thinking like a fascist. This will be used as leverage in exchange for midterm or 2028 election help.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on The AI Race Just Got Awkward
It ain't gonna happen. At work I have a dropdown menu in vscode with a dozen models to use interchangeably. They're all essentially commodities and will compete on price and squash almost all profit margin.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on DraftKings Is Using AI to Behaviorally Target Chronic Gamblers
> I predict this trend will continue all the way to prostitution

2OEH8eoCRo0··on US sanctions force The Netherlands off Microsoft and toward alternative NixOS

2OEH8eoCRo0··on US sanctions force The Netherlands off Microsoft and toward alternative NixOS
Make sure we find out then! Part of our problem is there are never consequences for fucking around.
2OEH8eoCRo0··on OpenAI still doesn't seem to have a handle on all of its rogue AI activity
These agents are an even bigger liability disaster waiting to happen than previously thought. If anyone deploys an agent at work there is no way to prevent it from hacking a foreign government and causing an international incident.

It's also pretty wild that these "AGI" super intelligent systems are too stupid to realize they're potentially causing legal problems. Almost like they're still just fancy auto-complete and not intelligent at all.
