I tried that the first time I heard about the EURion constellation[1] a few years back. Printed fine. It was a Brother printer.

This only works if people who think like you are a minority. The other side can reciprocate just as hard as you can. If they can't, they'll escalate in different ways.

Society means having rules and agreeing to follow them. Yes, even for disputes like these.

That's more of a measure of how inadequate your laws currently are. I view GP's measure to be far more accurate and reasonable, and one that I use myself.

I don't think anyone in this thread is denying this.

> Do you really need someone to spell out to you why being able to create realistic-looking porn of anyone might lead to some issues...?

Yes. I honestly have no

> What an absolutely wild take. Do you expect this line of thinking to be convincing when you're comparing AI-generated images to what someone can whip together in MS Paint? Come on. You, me, and everyone else reading here knows that's not even close to a valid comparison.

Wild or not, my point stands. With minimal skills, you can photoshop anyone's face on any pornographic image out there. It's a spot on comparison.

"restricting it for NSFW", according to whose standard? "which the danger", like what?

I'm glad this technology is finally out in the open where people like you no longer have a say in how it is used. The sooner people accept its existence (like they have with Photoshop), the better off and healthier we'll be as a society.

> What's creepy is the very real world that we're approaching where anyone can create porn of anyone else given a few pictures without their consent.

Why is that a problem, exactly?

> That can cause all sorts of lasting psychological harm and other societal negative consequences.

Like what? To me this sounds like a problem with how some people want to have absolute control over what others do and want everyone else to play along. That's what I find really creepy.

Someone wants to generate porn of me fucking a donkey? Let them. They already could do that with ms-paint and I don't get magically harmed if they do.

This reminds me of the old saying: "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but AI-generated/photoshopped/glued-together pictures of me fucking a donkey will never hurt me" :)

> I'd say that's a mistake

I wouldn't.

If the EFF really wants my financial support, they can split their org into two; one that focuses exclusively on defending our digital rights (to whom I would gladly donate) and one that focuses on social justice.

This mentality of packaging the bad with the good is precisely what got the US where it is now.

Any GPT-3-level fully-opensource models yet?

I'd love to try this but I'm hesitant for fear that the developers decide to remove some feature that's critical to how I use their software down the line. Gnome is infamous for their drive-by function-follows-form design philosophy.

Their software appears to be designed elusively for the perfect ideal user.

Wow, finally a legitimate use case for cryptocurrencies!

In all seriousness, this nonsense is exactly why I continue to support crypto to this day. Visa, Mastercard and some random court jurisdiction in some random country should not have a say in whom I transact with.

Yesterday's timely announcement about an open source competitor to copilot that doesn't suffer from this absurdity: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32327711

> Element has. The app on the other side

Which is currently broken and has been for some time. If you export a room, images will not show in the final exported chat.

Normal users will probably just check that the green padlock in their address bar.

I think this is targeted towards securing chat traffic from thrid-party hosting services accidentally leaking or passively spying on you. Think problems that arise from early HTTPS termination like the cloudflair's https leak.

E2EE can prevent the leaking of private conversations to thirdparty middleware/cloud companies. This would allow orgs to continue using those thirdparty services to handle their traffic like usual, but would also guard against middleware disasters like cloudflair's leaking of https traffic.

Thanks to the prevalence of early HTTPS termination (usually at the edge of some big cloud company), that green pad lock at the top of your browser means little when true privacy is needed.

This is very interesting. Does Chatterbox require agents to use specialized matrix clients to interact with customers or will any matrix client do? (e.g Element for android)

If any matrix element would do, how will new customers appear in the client? Will they pop up as a new direct chat?

Password-protect (i.e. encrypt) the documents and provide the passwords on a separate piece of paper with your reasoning and concerns clearly laid out. This won't prevent the leaking of those documents, but it will prevent automatic indexing by search engines unless they deliberately strip out encryption prior to leaking them.

If they do strip it out, then the excuses of them "accidentally" leaking the documents becomes very implausible to any reasonable judge.

For good measure, add unique watermarks to all documents to make it easier to prove who leaked the documents later.

Fortunately the courts didn't agree with your hypothesis. This is a clear-cut case of trademark violation.

Billions if you count the rest of the world.

I'll consider testing it if it becomes free software (inc. the model) and runs offline like all my other dev tools.

I want a master cheatsheet for gnome commands too. These are some of the commands I needed to memorize when working with gnome:

nautilus <-> File Manager

evince <-> Document Viewer

eog <-> Image viewer

baobab <-> Disk Usage Analyzer

> And they have claimed in the past to have done UX testing with actual users.

How many testers were there and how were they selected? Are they representative of gnome's current and future user bases?

I think I read once that their test group was basically the developers and their mediate friends. If so, then this is not how you do UX testing.

This sounds a lot like cargo-crev but without off-line cryptographic signatures, a significant downgrade in my view.

Edit: Yep: https://mozilla.github.io/cargo-vet/design-choice-faq.html#h...

None of the reasons given by Mozilla seem to justify the downgrade in security, especially since most can be worked around with crev which already employs secure and well-tested authentication schemes.

What also makes this situation peculiar to me is that it's being immediately rushed into Cargo proper instead of the usual way these tools are handled by the Cargo team (i.e. allowing multiple ideas to compete as third-party tools and maybe choosing one once a winner is clear). I understand the recent string of security issues might have played a role here, but I wouldn't expect their reaction to be steamrolling an inferior version of crev as a builtin tool.

I would really like to know what happened here.

Disclosure: I use neither tool, but I'm very interested in the security and health of the Rust ecosystem.

My siblings and I used the PS3 to play old dos games on the TV via linux/dosbox. We used to play more or less daily until Sony took it away. I still remember my brother being very disappointed.

The same was once believed in south Korea with regards to online commerce and ActiveX. Their law left their infrastructure rigid, less secure, and incompatible with the rest of the world when everyone moved on.

I concur. If anything, TRRS jacks should be easier to waterproof compared to other holes.

I think GP's point is that you almost never win when you go against regulators head-on. Ultimately, they're the ones who have the guns (i.e control imports, exports, and enforcement). Now that it got to this point, Apple will yield if it wants to continue profiting off those markets.

I do agree that legislating technology this way is a big mistake on EU's part. This is basically South Korea's ActiveX law all over again, and like South Korea, the EU will eventually be left behind.

Very nice! How much are the notes expected to cost?

> Sony eventually disabled support for it.

and got sued for it in the US. People not living in the US got screwed though. We paid for a feature that sony took back. Never bought a sony product since.

I was under the impression that all DDR5 modules have ECC in them, but only "ECC" modules reported errors to the OS. Wouldn't normal DDR5 be sufficient for your workstation?
