BDSM / fetish activities.

Yeah that’s the method.

I used to work in an alternative lifestyle club with a dentist chair setup for doing… alternative lifestyle things. So yeah probably exactly what you don’t want to imagine.

A company can essentially admit to making an open-to-the-public cyberweapon and there’s nothing more than a vague press release and a few news articles on it.

Citation needed. Automating metasploit shouldn’t be headline grabbing news and it sounds like you know better.

Anthropic’s primary role right now is promoting the doomsday narrative and trying to engineer the conditions for regulatory capture.

None of their headline grabbing reports are trustworthy. This one is just another example where they haven’t disclosed anything that would be recognised by security researchers as legitimate evidence for their claims. It’s just a press release to push the dangerous uber-tech WMD story back to the front pages of everyone’s news feed.

Look into it, this story is old by the standards of the industry, so it’s been ripped apart already by domain experts.

Posting this utter garbage on this platform is fucking stupid. You’re doing the enemy’s propaganda work for them.

Open weights models are not open source.

Open source models are like this: https://github.com/huggingface/smollm with pre-training and training data provided, training methods described in reproducible detail and of course weights for people to play with without needing to re-do the work unnecessarily.

Also me when China keeps leapfrogging US tech at the one thing the Americans are focused on and they don’t even need to fuck up their entire economy to do it.

The spec says engine references are supposed to be removed from the Fuselage instance when they’re destroyed.

Please raise this issue with the engine team.

Closing this ticket.

the Krinkov bloc, neat.

I was thinking “have it it boys! kill as many as you like, no questions asked” possibly with a new tourism campaign to appeal to sicko trophy hunters.

But I suppose in the interest of a finding a nice healthy efficient market solution they are obliged to entertain submissions from the MIC.

But then the feral dog packs will grow even more powerful.

I mean its worth a shot right, what could even go wrong.

Fuck sake, that’s so annoying, I figured you guys would be exempt from this shittery.

Someone close to me is on a win 11 box and has grown to hate windows in general with its stupid priorities and covert opt-in-by-default privacy invasions. But they’ve been paralyzed with anxiety about installing Linux and procrastinating on buying a new SSD to install it onto.

Anyway all of this oversharing is to say this post provoked me hard enough to spend hours finding a decent replacement drive to buy and give to this person so they can just get the fuck off their janky busted ass windows install.

So, thank you. You have my sympathy.

sad I didn’t upgrade to Windows 11 now

Is that screenshot from Win 10? (or am I being too literal)

Good onya cuzzos.

I wonder what sort of hellish provisions the current government will make to facilitate this.

NOO YOU HAVE TO BUY THE NEWEST SHITTIEST THING YOU CANT BE HAPPY AND CONTENT WITHOUT CONSTANT WASTE AND CONSUMPTION IT WILL DESTROY THE COUNTRY

A more recent blog post from Quad9 regarding all that shit:

Feels like the funnel is getting narrower.

France is really taking the piss lately.

I’m late in learning this but last year the French courts ruled in favour of some French media company and issued orders to the major DNS operators to block access to some piracy sites.

Cisco who run OpenDNS (did you know that? I didn’t. Ew. They bought OpenDNS in 2015 for over $600 million in cash) opted to block connections from France.

Google and Cloudflare, presumably, complied in blocking access to the listed sites when the DNS queries originate in France. No expectation of privacy from them anyway so meh.

Quad9 had to apply the French block list to the whole world because (apparently) the same Swiss law that protects their users from IP logging would also protect them from being geo located to apply the block list. So rather than leave France, Quad9 blocked the required list of sites from all users of their DNS. They said they’d appeal it but I dunno how far that’s gone, probably not very.
