Modern TV is a computer that runs apps with network access. The reason for this is streaming video over the Internet which is rather popular. If an app can send and receive data over the Internet it can be exploited to act as a residential proxy for a larger botnet. If that app doesn’t utilise native libraries / APIs to do that it might be hard to detect by the platform owner.

My code was scraped according to this website but let’s not kid ourselves that any kind of opt-out will prevent this. Any corpo knows that you can outsource all of your shady dealings to a couple of layers of third party vendors and pretend you didn’t know any better. It’s safe to assume that if you use an LLM that you didn’t train yourself you’re violating copyleft of some GPL project.

Do you have any instances blocked? I’m getting an impression it started applying to users recently. Not complaining, that’s what I wanted to achieve.

I’m seriously behind times because I’m reading RHEL switched to XFS as a default in 2013 and SUSE did that even earlier :o

I don’t even need an LLM to be confidently wrong, sorry.

Why would you use XFS for those partitions in the first place? It’s not what it was designed for or used in real life and that’s likely reason this wasn’t discovered before. What I’m getting from a lot of those AI-assisted security findings is that they’re not concerned with a real vector of attack before making big claims in the media. You’ll probably be able to vandalise things with this exploit but „root privileges” is pushing it.

It was disclosed through user agreement and docs for admins hosting Tesseract. List wasn’t encrypted. We’re going in circles now.

People are allowed to have political opinions and they’re allowed to express them through software. Don’t like it? Don’t use it.

Those root privileges being able to edit a root-owned file if it’s in a directory that allows writes by all users. How common is that?

Saeed Abbasi, the head of Qualys’ Threat Research Unit, says the discovery emerged from a research initiative between Qualys and Anthropic, in which researchers integrated the AI model Claude Mythos Preview into their manual audit workflow.

Ah, an ad.

How else could such list work? New Tesseract release for every update to the filter? It wasn’t encrypted.

The list was not public, what are you going on about?

Tesseract is open source, no?

He was also not ‘running’ anything for most users, any more than Linus is ‘running’ my pc just because I’m using Linux.

He is running an opinionated client to the underlying ActivityPub network. He states that in user agreement and docs for admins that want to host it on their own.

Do I agree with a design philosophy intended to decrease polarisation? Heck yeah. The amount of downvotes I’ve got shows what kind of people this thing attracts. Reeks of reddit.

Being upfront about some bans is detrimental to the effort because of ban evaders, which is most of this list supposedly. The toggle was still there there and the list was public.

I agree that if you run a thing then you get to decide things about it. I agree that calls for for violence should be filtered from normies at all cost (I’m very pro guillotine but I think it’s best to have everyone get there on their own pace). I agree that homophobia/transphobia has no place in a civilised space. So, mostly everything that was stated there.

I don’t use Tesseract but I did try it out back in the day and I remember that there was a button labeled „toxicity” in settings. I’m surprised by what it does from a technical perspective because I’d expect it to do filtering based on keywords. But user filters definitely work too, it’s just that you have to keep your ear to the ground which is a lot of effort. I modded a national subreddit back in the day and for certain type of users doing a pseudo-shadowban was the only way to do it.

I can’t vouch for every person on the list being there for a valid reason. I scrolled it but didn’t recognise anyone. I stay out of crowded spaces though.

I agree with rationale of what Tesseract is doing but I’m also disappointed I’m not on the list.

I’m having trouble using this functionality, what’s the correct way to look up a specific account?

On Mastodon I follow an account with news from mas.to. I can look up this instance through Instances and browse users but I can’t find a way to look up a specific person. I tried adjusting URL using random account as a template but the one I’m after isn’t found even though it’s a valid handle.

Yikes, that’s a new level of creatively bankrupt.

It’s unfortunate that flairs don’t federate from Piefed to Lemmy yet, I assume downvotes are coming from Lemmy users who don’t see that this is tagged as humour.

For removing malware from their app store? o_O

Dub is acceptable for some types of animation where translation also adapts it to local culture. And I’d still have subtitles enabled at the same time.

Not being able to visualise images has no bearing on whether you can conceptualise surrounding space (positions, distances) or you wouldn’t be able to function at all. While aphantasia is not a medically recognised condition and therefore not exactly well studied there’s a lot to suggest it partially overlaps with autism. This in turn would explain tendency for bottom-up thinking - your brain has to systemise everything to understand it. At least that’s my intuition as someone with both.

Consumers are lazy and big tech exploits it by creating just enough friction to keep them in semi-walled gardens. Enabling installing of an app that’s labeled as „file might be harmful” by enabling installation of „unknown apps” won’t stop my grandma from installing malware but it stops many from even bothering with alternative app stores.

The older I am the more I notice how capitalism is so ubiquitous that it’s pretty much a religion that’s being hammered into brains of everybody from an early age. Having cartoons becoming ads for toys in the 80s led to irreparable harm for every future generation. It’s unfortunate that using language / philosophy designed specifically to talk about this has been ridiculed to the point of most people having negative knee-jerk reaction to it. It’ll probably take many more centuries of unnecessary deaths until people realise this, similar to other religious mass delusions.

This thread was not meeting 50% quota so while this comment is a bit of a joke it’s also very much serious.
