Oh, well today I learned. I had assumed that even the world’s dumbest government officials wouldn’t refer to themselves as being part of a department that doesn’t actually exist, but here we are.
Thanks for laying it out for me!

I think you missed some news. There is officially a Department of War again.
Edit: I am very wrong.


Also, mass surveillance. Not surveillance itself. And fully autonomous weapons.
Don’t get distracted by the birdy folks, Anthropic is not your friend, or some great protector of the American people. They were already deeply embedded in the US Government as their product was the only one certified for use with classified documents.
They weren’t standing up for us, they were splitting hairs on exactly how far they’d openly go.
I’ve also seen statements that Anthropic’s stance against fully autonomous weapons was simply due to results not yet being as consistent as they were comfortable putting their name on, not due to any opposition towards use in/with weaponry.
OpenAI also claims to have the same limitations. So someone’s lying.


While I’m glad they’re drawing a line, they’re only splitting hairs. Anthropic is already deeply working with the US gov.


You’re spot-on. As some additional context, Anthropic is already working tightly with the US government. Until the recent announcement regarding Grok, Anthropic was the only approved AI for US government work, as it is/was the only one certified for safely woeking with classified data.


Just another trillion dollars guys! Just another year and a half! I swear!
Unsubscribing to shit you don’t care about, using the search on the desktop client to be able to select 100s of emails and delete them at a time, and automatic filters are your friend.
And like someone else said, if it’s over like a month old and unread, chuck it in an “archive” folder and mark all as read. They’ll still be there if you absolutely need them, but won’t be cluttering stuff up.
Don’t try to manage it from the phone app, it’s a pain in the ass.
Caveat: I say all this with even more unread than your picture, and having not done any cleanup of my inboxes (besides setting filters on my work one) in years. I just remember what did work for me the last time I was on top of my inbox for a few years in college.


To be a bit more direct, you shouldn’t download “pre-cracked” isos. Just download the real install media and use mas-grave to spoof activation/licensing.


Nope. Ring cameras are part of Amazon Sidewalk which is effectively an automatic, invisible, and not end-user-controllable wireless mesh network “meant to keep devices working during wifi outages” or in other words to ensure the data makes it back to the cloud at any cost.
Their are more and more device manufacturers starting to use techniques like this to ensure connection regardless of owner intent.
I too, enjoy plugging a USB-C to A adapter into my Android phone so I can use an ethernet to USB adapter. :P
More seriously, two of the hard requirements of my house was fiber connection available from the ISP to the house and wired ethernet to the major rooms.


You can look this shit up you know. 3 yachts each retrofitted into marine research vessels and one under construction as another research vessel. Two “support vessels” whatever the fuck that means. The one under construction will house 75 scientists. His marine research company, inkfish, releases all findings publicly and for free.
But nobody knows this shit because he isn’t burning money on a fucking PR firm.
Two yachts for pleasure, which is entirely two yachts too many.
Look, he’s sitting upon an empire largely propped up by the fucking invention of lootboxes, the marketing of them to children and whales, and all the second and third hand markets and gambling sites that have sprung up around this shit. I’m not going to sit around and suck his dick.
But inkfish isn’t even the only “public good” organization he’s founded. And he’s also just directly donated money to existing things as well, such as considerable money into pediatric ICU in New Zealand.
On the scheme of ultra rich, he is one of the better ones.
Edit: Especially if we’re putting Gabe Newell up against Tim “banning Twitter because it allows AI generation of CSAM is gatekeeping” Sweeney


Re-read the title. considering halting plans to. They aren’t using them yet.


Huh? I’m having no issues with vsCode, and while I haven’t used Discord in ages I didn’t have problems with it either. Both are electron. Got any links about these issues handy?


That only mitigates. There are still a number of ways to potentially track a hardened phone, and countless ways to breach proper OPSEC on social media that have nothing to do with the platform.
Don’t rely entirely on system choices to keep you safe.


If you think that any nation-state with the money to implement this shit isn’t doing it already, I have a bridge to sell you.
Surveillance is a matter of power and maintaining it, far more than any ideological thing. There are already people being caught by this sort of shit in the UK and Europe as well.


While making this easier to access isn’t a positive, there are a ton of ways that this can, and already is, being done at companies that actually care about this shit.
Yeah you’re totally in the office, but your laptop just magically has an IP from the subnet for devices connected over VPN 🙄
Once again I must insist that people need to stop expecting any privacy on work devices. It is possible to find out anything on them, including location, it’s just a matter of how much effort your workplace is willing to expend on looking.
Edit: While I appreciate the article being short and to the point, a link to any documentation on this would have been nice. The claim is that it will display the SSID of the Wi-Fi AP you’re connected to. While being able to get that from your phone is a new bit of reach, it’s possible to gather that from work devices easily.


Just enulation? Ducktales 1 got a remake/remaster. Kind of sad not to include that.


Altman realizes most people outside of third world countries aren’t ready to just hand over their biometrics for cash, so he’s come up with a new way to get people to give them to him. Hooray.
I don’t get how anyone can trust a fucking word out of this guy’s mouth.
por que no los dos?
