Technology@lemmy.world•Chinese video platform Bilibili is going global to challenge YoutubeEnglish
2·20 days agoOkay peertube, now’s your time to shine! Become the default for the Fediverse by stepping in during this power struggle
I just realized that we don’t pay volunteer EMTs or Firefighters. And of course, I’m sure fulltime police officers outnumber the fulltime staffing of both firefighters and EMTs.
How the fuck have we survived this long?

Technology@lemmy.world•BMW is putting Spider-Man ads on your dashboard, after promising it never wouldEnglish
3·1 month agoIts not a time period or quality issue but an ownership one. You can buy a new car but you don’t ever really own it fully.

Technology@lemmy.world•Bosses Are Becoming Obsessed With AI, Using It to Make Every Decision, Barraging Their Employees With Nonsensical ChatGPT Directives, and Even Asking It Who to FireEnglish
1·2 months agoIts more accurate to ask, which parts are the AI workhorse; the head or the body?
If it’s the body then AI is helping you (the head) to do hard tasks which probably fits your definition of a cyborg. If it’s the head as in the reverse centaur, then you (the body) are doing all the work underneath for AI model.
I think the argument is that at this point the use of AI has been found to be more useful for tasks that’s managers and bosses perform than more technical tasks that would be assigned to employees underneath them. And if those managers were replaced by AI then you would have a tireless manager overseeing workers doing more difficult work that do tire out but are expected to keep up with demands from the management.

Technology@lemmy.world•Louis Rossmann is suing Samsung after firm offers $330 refund for defective SSD while selling the drives on Amazon for $949 — spat over 4TB 990 Pro SSD is headed to courtEnglish
2·3 months agoI totally agree with you.
I wish more in the tech industry were able to see how these issues are all related to the leftist struggle.

31·3 months agoUnfortunately, I think you’re projecting a bit. He’s had interviews stating that he has issues with “both” sides, so from what I can find he seems centrist in his views. Also, he’s now a part of FUTO which has hosted him as a speaker alongside others with alt-right tech personalities.
From my perspective, I think he fits the burned out IT professional archetype that is tired of all the BS today, but as far as activism I think he’s pretty much only focused on right to repair. Anything beyond that seems to not be in his scope of interest. But to be honest, I would be happy to be proven wrong.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field'
11·4 months agoThat’s fair. Authoritarianism across the board is inherently anti-free and will give rise to enshittified or unsecure software given enough time. We’re not only dealing with bigots that can’t stand living on the same planet as others they don’t understand, but also those that want strict authority and enforcement.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field'
91·4 months agoBut who is checking? Last I read, these laws were created in a few states as a preventative measure against potential Federal laws that could push these issues even further. I haven’t heard of any enforcement plans to date or anything about how it should report, just “add age verification to operating systems.”

Linux@lemmy.ml•Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field'
233·4 months agoA surprising amount of people in the open source community lean alt-right including the lead dev of systemd, some of FUTO, and others like hyprland, etc. Others like the actual dev that committed the age field code to systemd state they are apolitical but in reality are actually enabling those that want to do harm.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•files.md is an open source alternative to Obsidian
0·4 months agoLogseq leverages centrally hosted databases while obsidian works directly from files and directory structures. There should be a way to import individual files but I’m not sure if it will parse your entire vault.
Wayyy too many Nazis in tech, which unfortunately includes a surprising amount of open source tech too.

Technology@lemmy.world•‘Irresponsible’: backlash as Utah approves datacenter twice the size of ManhattanEnglish
4·4 months agoI wouldn’t say it’s nuanced really.
It’s either those involved with planning the construction are aware of and scale to account for the impact of the ecosystem and population surrounding their project, or they don’t and plot a gigantic building with no environmental accountability. You can do an environmental impact assessment and follow it or you can choose to ignore it or half ass it; it’s pretty cut and dry to me.

Technology@lemmy.world•Extortion Using Smart Glasses Is a Thing NowEnglish
6·4 months agoI think AI granting the ability for nearly anyone to easily manipulate short videos in a way that looks realistic might be where it comes into the picture.
Having video evidence of everything you do is just unsettling at the very least if you ask me.

Technology@lemmy.world•Large physics models are increasingly used to bypass simulationEnglish
71·5 months agoIt’s hardly their fault for thinking it was related to the AI LLM or multimodal models when in all actuality the article states that these “large physics models” may be any sort of configuration, including LLM transformers:
the models may use the transformer architecture that underlies LLMs, a generalized version of convolutional neural networks known as geometric deep learning, or an architecture that can solve partial differential equations called neural operators.
It seemed you really needed to take your frustrations out on someone else’s comment.

Technology@lemmy.world•A hacker has allegedly breached one of China’s supercomputers and is attempting to sell a trove of stolen dataEnglish
4·5 months agoIt said a preview was available for thousands of dollars but the full database is selling for hundreds of thousands. That seems more realistic for risk & storage/hosting costs.



Looks like they have a tiling window manager running the ‘stat’ command on a bunch of kernel files on the left, then a bunch of smaller window tiles having random stuff like garbled text, a resource monitor, and gnucharmap?
