relieferator··on 'Lavender': The AI machine directing Israel's bombing in Gaza
What was the code name for the AI that slaughtered 1200 Israelis and took hundreds hostage? What kind of decision making went into Hamas raping dozens of women? What kind of AI chose targets in Israel to rocket? One thing's for certain, humans no matter how "enlightened" can only take so much before they go absolutely postal. "Humanity" and "rules of war" go right out the window when humans are pushed too far. It was going on before this war and will go on afterwards. What, now that we have "precise" weapons, an all-out war of one country vs another will adhear to some kind of code of ethics? Give me a break. Dresdin bombings, Hiroshima, Nanking, etc etc civilians will ALWAYS get slaughtered 1000 to one in an all-out war.
relieferator··on Ask HN: How are you using GPT to be productive?
For general troubleshooting, it's helpful to ask things like "How do I troubleshoot a slow OS X finder?" How do I migrate mail messages and calendar items from one Office 365 mailbox to a new Office 365 mailbox with different email address in the same tenant? Can I use group policy to configure certificate based authentication for Microsoft Outlook? Where do I start when trying to renew and replace an api certificate on aws?

Also, for leisure I've been using it for gaming. For example, "Do you know about the survival game Rust (yes)?" Then follow up questions, how many beancan grenades to break a metal door? How long will it take to craft 500 sulfur worth of 9mm ammo? I've learned quite a lot from it but when it said I can use a grappling hook to scale a high external stone wall, I noticed this flaw. There is no grappling hook in prod/vanilla Rust, so I told it so, and it corrected itself to say it may only be available on modded servers.

Also I ask it a lot of medical questions, treatments, symptoms, long term outlooks, over the counter treatments etc.

relieferator··on Weird monitor bugs people sent me in the last 5 years
So if I have my cell phone (Galaxy S21) near my headphones USB cable, and there is activity on the mobile phone radio (I can hear the mobile phone 'radio' in my headphones), sometimes my monitors will black out. This has happened to a few other users at my office as well. Move the mobile phone a meter away from any cables and problem goes away.

went to downdetector first but this is betta
relieferator··on The school for sysadmins who can’t timesync good
Nice comprehensive series but couldn't get to page 4 -site timed out. On the windows side of things, I'm more familiar with "w32tm" and "net time." My time sync post has the highest amount of views on my site from people googling "how to set time clock on domain" so their cell phones match their computers at work. Would be interesting to see how the windows protocols differ from nix.
relieferator··on Bromite: A Privacy-Enhanced Chromium Fork for Android
If you use this on android it won't pull your bookmarks out of chrome. To get your bookmarks, go to a PC, export your bookmarks (nearly impossible to export on android) and then drop into online storage like Drive. Then go back to your andriod > Drive > download bookmarks.html file, open Bromite > bookmarks > Import > point to downloaded .html file

relieferator··on Super-spreading wedding demonstrates Covid-19 risk posed by holiday gatherings
Why do people go to work when they're sick? I don't understand for the life of me, how someone thinks it's ok? If you don't feel well, your company (or money) is not worth your life or the lives of others. Stay home ffs.

relieferator··on The impact of direct air carbon capture on climate change
From what I can recall, landfills produce more methane than any other process. How about we build a carbon capture next to every landfill, divert the methane and burn it to run the DAC?
relieferator··on Why I'm usually unnerved when modern SSDs die on us
Thanks for this youtube link. In the case of recovering deleted files from SSD's that have the trim command enabled (Forensics Writeblocker was used,) the following drives have a low probability of recoverability: Crucial, Intel, and Samsung (3core controller). Whereas Seagate, Supertalent (parallel ATA to SATA bridge chip,) OCZ, and Patriot; files could be recovered. If the drive is quick-formatted, and if trim is enabled, the data is completely gone on the following drives: Crucial, Intel and Samsung. The trim state impacts the most whether or not the data can be recovered. You can check if trim is enabled with the command: fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify - if your result is 0, it is enabled (default).

relieferator··on A black hole in a low mass X-ray binary star
These globular clusters have always seemed peculiar to me. One would surmise that such a structure would result in a massive black hole without the rotational effects of say a galaxy.

relieferator··on Censored Photographs of FDR’s Japanese Concentration Camps
If this kind of crap has to be done it should be done right. Provide adequate housing, food, transportation. Treat humans as humans, not animals.
