i didnt know that service exist. cool
was this ai generated essay reviewed by a human before posting. Not because i see anything glaring wrong with it, but because it would be funny that a post about reviewing ai code wouldnt get a lookover from a human.
to be fair, the original bill was prob also written by an AI since alot of accounting jobs are being replaced with ai's. One ai correcting another ai. we should expect errors from both sides. i bet it will be more accurate then humans in the future tough as its much less likley to make some of the silly mistakes that human accountants do.
Most AI are great at doing 1 task, they are worse when they need to pipe 1 task into another, and another, and so on. while prompts are prob the most important input for an AI, a trained AI will be better at those multi-step processes in which its training will help it be better at following the schema your company follows. For example, an ai that is given an accounting position, would be better at knowing where to find data, and where to place the newly formatted data, once its done with its...

all this means is that everyone will rely on the same components. any vulnerability or exploit will be far reaching.
exactly
:/ no. shopify, as the the largest donator to the rubygems.org has manipulated the rubygems.org environament to kick out developers. including some of the important ones like the blundler developer. This is a very bad thing. The "donation money" is more of a bribe to make the rubygems.org do whatever they want. Its ok if you dont read the article because i know that its not relevant to you. but be careful with your comments haha. The take away of this post, is that a large...

the beginning sounding like ai but it got better part way through. or maybe i just got used to it... idk. anyways. Keep in mind that alot of these companies have stocks & therefore board members. The people in these [positions are not often there because they care about the industry but rather because they want to amke a proft. Because of this, they often try to spend as little $ on IT and cybersecurity which is what leads to most of these problems. I know a guy that worked for MGM in...
sounds good
I still will offer free hosting for you. I only have ~3 months of time left during the time that i will be able to help you with the transfer and management. Once that 3 months is up. you will have to fend for yourself, as i will also have no physical access to the server beyond that point. I urge you to take advantage of these months while i am able to help you move into one of my servers, or into one of your own (much much more preferable!). I will not be able to help you in the future. I...
Yes you are right about that. but, if the cost is too great, and only a few people appreciate you. Its hard to keep going. I appreciate this site, but, so far no one has chimed in. This platform is a financial burden for you, its a problem. And the trade off is only a handful of people chatting. Its Sad. As much as i want it to stay, i feel, that i would be a bad person, if i told you to keep it up no matter what. I feel that would be a irresponsible thing for me to tell you. Even if you...
I think that determining on how many people reply to this post, or interact with it someway or not should be enough to tell you if its a good idea. If this post goes a whole week with only me commenting, then that means no one else must see value in this platform like you and me see. I do hope that more people interact and show that a unique place like this has value. but if not, then its prob the best idea to have you focus all of your time on your new site. While i want CTD to keep...
ive replied in the chat room that you were originally in: [link](https://chat-to.dev/chat?q=Chat-todev_Official)
Should this get a revamp? Rather then a SBC you could poll the community and ask what they would like. Possibly purchase some books, or online courses as the prize? There are only a little time before this post hits 6 months. at that time you should prob leave a comment letting people know that this event is discontinued. At that same time you can prob release the new version of the event with a different prize. Im not sure how you would do it, but letting the members vote on what prize...
sooooo, briar, which has been around for years
yea... im prob many many years away though :(
teaching & personal buisness. Both hardly bring in enough money so a supplimental retail job is needed too. The end goal is to have the personal buisness gorw to the point that the passive income is enought to support myself and then teach with some free time for fun and some pocket change.
its litterly just a cookie cutter templete. These exist for all forms of websites. You just pick a style you like, then replace all the lorem ipsum with your content. It makes it easy to get a professional looking site without having to do css yourself. Its a great fir for someone who dont know how to code, but is capiable enough to browse the html and make their edits. ive reccomending things like this b4 to people and they work great aslong as you dont want anything customized.
repeat of yesterdays trend. just constant abuse of authors. Your a huge rich company. you can pay more.
well atleast they paid for them.
boo
for those who are unable/unwilling to switch platforms, just make sure to use your pgp key everywhere.
take a snack break at a backyard pool is the best 15 min relax/kinda exercise ever
why keep data on your phone. Lets be real, most of us carry a laptop around with us at all times. For me a phone needs no data, call and text is all it needs to be for. Anything else id rather do on a computer. that being said, there is sailfish, graphine, ubuntutouch, & postmarket. However alot of these projects dont get much attention and can be clunkier then the oem os. If your really concerned about your privacy, just use a computer when possible and a phone for phone-only tasks.
If you want to participate, but dont have the course, talk to me in the community learning room so you can obtain a copy.
nah ur good, i get the English problems. was just a bit creepy way to say that haha
hm? ahh english, i gotchu. umm, amargo. a living room is the open community room in a house, where guest sit and the tv is and such. that was a creepy comment until i understood it XD
no participants yet?
Just like any FOSS software, i feel that its foolish to make decisions about the project based on one controversial figure in the dev team. looking at the [contrib page[(https://codeberg.org/librewolf/source/activity/contributors) it seems that this has no where near the level of impact as the other 2 main devs. Heck, it looks like they do more deleting code then anything else. Point is, this ohfp person, has a big voice, yet limited impact on the project. Im not a fan of reverse racism....
anyone not using librewolf or forking it themself is dumb. no one likes where mozilla is spending their $
:P i dont want the color im looking to bold text like <b>this</b> with the b tag edit: wait, what, it works here but not in the post? anyways, i just find it funny
amargo, you should be using classes/id's to change text color for CTD. now the bold tags in .md are set to black color rather then inheriting whatever the font is set too. :P
im more concerned about fema
I think alot of it is due to formal education. Boot camps, colleges, trade schools, etc, are often funded and supplemented by these large corps so it makes sense that it ends up swaying the decisions of the educators to teach stuff that is favorable to their sponsors. I think it gets even worse when you look at free education online. Most people are not willing to spend 100+ hours to make lessons teaching how to teach language X unless they get paid. The ones who do it "free" are...
i think that you are better off going outside and meeting them in person.
invidious still works so who cares lol
coming from some of the richest companies... yes ill believe what they say 100%
its not a reliability thing. its just that npm & node has many un-found security issues that pop up pretty often. if your scrips are 100% local then there should be no issue, but if you make a more advanced script that reaches out to the internet to recipient commands or trigger on a type of event, i wouldn't feel very secure with that potential entry point into my system. I agree with your post. Im just adding the inhering vulnerability that i feel was overlooked that i personally...
who would do this anyways XD id be concerned about all the security issues related to node running at all on my system
as opposed to the non-lethal cancer
Its HARDER to use it for a week, then it is to use it for a month. Just learning the names of the application that you are trying to launch can take a week in its self. id say after a week once youve learned where all the buttons are, learned the names of the new apps you use, and learned how to set up the desktop the way you like it, then you have room to give good feedback. from week 2-4 is when you start to find out about what you like & dont like about it. But since this is a review...
ya know. if they didnt lie about it, it could still be a profitable business. Its like paid stack overflow, but someone just does the work for you rather then just answering questions. If they didnt claim o be an AI it could've been a nice service.
just foss the standard then there will be nothing the gov can do
I care more about how i feel, rather then what others think about me. I dont care of my coworkers want me dead, if im enjoying my job, why would i want to go to a different job.
yes yes, but if i really enjoy my job, and i ask for a raise then they say no. im still not going to quit or start looking for alternatives because i really love the job that im doing then. Ill ask for a raise again in the future.
I think that its more of; people are just tired of following 500 people that they dont care about. More people would rather have a few select people that they like to follow. I dont even think its just a blog thing. It could be video, audio podcast, hell, it could even be a friends git commit messages. Most people have multiple forms of social media and often spends hours a day on it. Eventually they will realise that they dont care about those hundreds of subscriptions and transition into a...
If you continually get better at your job as you get more experienced over time, and they dont pay you more, then they clearly dont see your experienced as valuable and you should demand a raise or look for an alternative. This is only the case if your not happy with your job which your first sentence indicates.
if we consider the security risk as a dangerous city. and we want to solve that problem. We can either adress the security by getting a bullet proof car and armor it up a bunch... Or we can just not live in that city. 1 approach is to try and harden your secuirty, which yea, apple is going to be better then firestick, or some of those other cheap smart tv things. but your still just putting up a defense. If you just move outta the city to the countryside you wont have to worry about getting...
your 100% secure, on the most insecure device, if your stream box computer is properly network air gapped. the best hacker in the world cant do anything to my non-internet accessible nas, and if i needa stream something from the internet ill spin up a docker container which will have network access and stream from there. Simply things that dont needa be connected, shouldnt be, and things that intermittently need to be connected can be in containers. this method will be more secure,...
or just hook up an old computer to a non-smart tv.
openwrt all compatable devices. if you have not done this yet, get started.
but devolving in quality
similar to the stallman post. i feel that what someone does is independent of their beliefs. I dont think anyone should hate on gnu for stallmans comments, i dont think mozilla should be criticized for eich's beliefs. This should also not be a tech specific thing. if a music artist is a complete nazi, but their song is a jam. should you criticize the song because the song writer has bad beliefs? No you should bash the artist for his opinions, but you can still acknowledge that their...
Firefox and Thunderbird duh
if it wasnt for the icon that is pinned to your taskbar be default; no one would even know what this is. Mozilla needs to cut back and focus on their core products more.
is it a good idea to give human rights to machines? once we give machines some human rights, ppl will argue that they need all human rights. Its ridiculous to talk about this.
oh i remember these guys from a few years ago. Theres still a good chance that they are still making puzzles. I bet we havent found noe of them because hardly anyone is still looking. shame, i would love to hear about some new puzzles, im sure they have crafted up some interesting stuff in the last decade
gee, if only there was a tracked alternative that did exactly that -_-
its just vanilla js. but they already have some default created const, classes, and methods that you call on (mostly for io purposes). here are the [docs](https://docs.nodegui.org/docs/guides/tutorial)
man this has been known since they have came to market. when left unpowered over time, often a year, the electrons will leak out of their cells meaning that the drive is going to read what should be 1's as 0's corrupting the data. even with ecc this problem continues to degrade further over time where so much of the data is lost that no ecc can recover it.
careful with the usb. they will forget* after a year or so. dont leave anything on there too long.
dont forget nodeGUI
let me know what your experience is though :)
PART 2: the kids who were able to keep up with the non gameified lesson were the 2 kids who had experience. and the 4 who were excited about the class and interested. this was in a lot of about 25 kids aged 12-16. the rest of the kids saw this as a 2 hour waste of time. the way this camp worked was the kids were made to pick classes for each day. The popular fun classes: physics (played with mini-catapults all day), art, cooking, sports, rockets (more just launching balloons if anything), etc...
cant fit comment into this block, will have to break it up. <br> PART 1: here in the USA we have hour of code and other introductory classes. these are classes that everyone participates in. There are many kids who simply arent interested in computers at all. Most of them find their phone the peak of technology. these are the kids that will not follow along with the lesson and group with with the other non-participatory kids to mess around the entire class. because some of these...
ehh. id push for tech literacy but not this. It would guarantee that id keep my job so i have an incentive to support it, but i dont think this is the right class for everyone. it should be an elective at most.
i mean, its possible to instruct over RF or something, but for the most part, if you dont have a smart device, and dont want to heavily modify your major appliances... no
If you were just posting links to post here, i dont understand what the issue would be. after-all the point of reddit clones it to be a link aggregator... like thats the whole job description. While it would be trivial to get a new ip, consider first how much value you extracted from that site. Were you getting meaningful interactions with users, or where you just being ignored like the Instagram account was? If its fruitless, its best just to quit and spend your time thinking of different...
Harder Daddy
I think people are just so simply minded that they dont want to think more about anything. They see the S and they thing: oh that means secure, so now i have NOTHING to worry about. Its this mindset that the general public has that leads to the issues.
is this a form of flattery if you get selected?
ive goofed with an old 360. that was fun. now it runs nintendo roms haha
gee i wonder where that training data is coming from.
nah its good, just thought it was funny. were you on mobile perchance?
howd u goof that up?
salt?
for sure. its so easy to get into this amazing hobby now. im not sure your age group but only a decade and a half ago it was still common place to have to grab parts individually. I remember my middle school computer lab had some of these bits lying around and we could only interact with them using BASIC and a serial connection we had from one of the old desktops haha. now people can just bluetooth instructions from their phone to a sbc.
yes. i havent used them for hobbiest projects before as ive always relied on a pi zero or pico for those. however ive used them for my job as a school teacher for almost 4 years now.
i hate my copper phonelines
Ive always liked tinkerable devices like these. Its far more approachable then giving people a breadboard, microcontroller, and a asm book. Although these manufactures arent creating anything new, they are packaging it in a way to enable more users to get into projects without the painful [search](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/embedded/microcontrollers/685?s=N4IgjCBcpgnAHLKoDGUBmBDANgZwKYA0IA9lANogAMIAugL7EC0AbMiGpAC4BOArkVIUQAZjqMQTAEztOvAcTKRKAVnES10EAAcoYYtt2QpK%2BvSA).

you should make a second account here to separate your personal post from AI written ones. Just because most of us can tell from the titles which is which, it still not flattering for your profile.
i like the logo
heh, funny
there are 2 solutions to this problem. 1: government controlled pricing. this could be good as it enables a board to determine what "fair prices" are. However regulation of these large corporations could lead to more corruption and lobbying from pharma to get favorable laws. 2: deregulate who is able to provide medicine and prevent life saving meds from being patented so that multiple producers can compete. This however can lead to low quality medicine from sketchy providers being...
I thought everyone knew this? it went punch-card -> tape -> hdd the reason tape and optical are good for archival is that they retain data for a very long time with little degregation. A hdd or ssd after a few years of not being powered on will start to "forget". The ecc that we have can bring lots of stuff back. The average person keeps their drives plugged in always to their machine so its always getting power. However a common thing for people to do is get a camera card...
anyone who has left a flash drive or old hard drive in cold storage for extended time will asure you there is a good reason to keep magnetic & optical data around, even if they are terribly slow.
im pretty sure you wouldnt be able to open an escape hatch underwater anyways.
ai that checks content to verify if it was made with ai or not
I think that someone can shoft focus without abandoning their previous goals. If programming dont work out for me, i can close my buisness, then pick up a traditional office job and keep programming as a hobby. eventually if i build something that is commercially viable i can start up a new business and give it a shot again. it would be stupid of me if i made a product, it flopped, so i decide that im done forever
its not a very well known/used app here in usa. also its owned by facebook. just because the message might be encrypted in transit does not exactly mean its privacy protecting. the 2 biggest things to focus on would be meta data auto generated & collected by your messenger provider, and where the data is stored at: your computer, community nodes, or by a mega corp who has decryption keys on-site (or none of the above in the case of tox). the other ones that i listed have 1 or both of those...
i think that its good that more users are taking privacy more seriously. I believe there is also going to be a boost in matrix, tox, session, telegram users too.
literately experienced this today. invidious is having issues from asian bots at the moment.
sounds like the camp failed at their job
alot of these camps have a guaranteed hire & no pay till you land a job, programs. If i has both of these, then i think its OK since they seem to be clearly trying to help people learn. I still think books are a far better investment but some people can only learn in a class room environment and between a camp or college, a camp is often better.
normal css supports variables: ``` --color1: green; --color2: #fff; .h1{ color: var(--color2); } ``` just use js if you need more things.
the price of the disk is subject to tariff. the software on the disk is not. the price to manufacture a disk is wildly cheap, they will just import them with the cents worth of tariff then image them here if they are really concerned.
I think that the people who participate in these places are the way they are. dont get me wrong, that dont make them "right". but i think a racist person is racist, regardless of if they have a community of other racist people to do what ever racist people do amongst themself. Point is its silly to think that by banning these communities you are making the world less (fill in the blank with whatever). All you are doing is forcing them to find somewhere to inter-commune. Its a waste of...

I agree, if you like windows, and are aware of the shortcomings, then keep doing what you like even if its not the optimal method. Dont forget dual booting or having more then 1 computer is a solution too. If you play games or software that requires windows, thats ok, do that on your non-development machine/hdd partition. <br> what i would like to focus on the most is NEW users. the people asking this question the most are new developers who just now are getting started. They dont have...
huh?! i know im a few years behind (ruby dev and whatnot) but when did this occur? nah, impossible. python still top language of 2024 i thoguht... or did rust take it?
id say its a good idea for everyone to learn somethings thats non-oop and close to the hardware so they kinda have an idea about what is really happening under the hood. However, oop is superior so once they get a taste of it and understand the inerworkings, i think that its ok if they transition into something modern and never touch C/asm ever again.
1. correct, if someone knows the code, they can choose to NOT disclose it to you, and instead exploit it themselfs. 1. This i think is a silly concern however because MOST people on github, gitlab, bitbucket, etc are there to help you and collaborate. by making it open source you will likley find more people looking to fix your issues rather then take advantage of them. 2. this is the case regardless of if you open source it or not. a old package is an issue, making it pulic changes nothing....
people should already know to self host stuff thats important. that does not mean its ok to train from private, but ppl should know better by now that there is a conflict of interest between microsoft (openai partner) and github (owned by MS) so this should have been expected from MS history of doin stuff like this. not a surprise
I have just finished my transfer over to librewolf. It supports the sync feature found in firefox so its real eazy to get your extentions, themes, history, password, bookmarkes, everything moved over.

so this is like windows S mode, just with a focus on iot. who would want this version XD
I dont know what you want anyone to say. for code to run, it must be executed on a machine. That machine be either be the clients device or the server. If you do not want the client to be able to see the code, then you must not transmit it to them. meaning that you can not have the code run on their machine. it must be server side only. there really is no other way. If you need to, try to split up the method. Keep in mind i dont know nothing about php. However i can imagine that its possible...
i woulda figured it was trending in the opposite way
this already exists in other employers
[here](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil) depending on what you do you can make it use less resources. Windows own page that is sited in the vid says: "If your device does not meet these requirements, you may not be able to install Windows 11 on your device and might want to consider purchasing a new PC" so they totally know that its possible to run cut down versions of the os. they set those min specs because they are reccomended if you want to have a good experience. Same...
and what exactly is your project that makes it arm exclusive?
ive seen multiple iterations of this done with the CM4. All of them were funky looking, or ended up being pricy. The pi5 is powerful sure, but the completed project likley being around 300 bucks just does not sound like a good deal. If you NEED a arm cpu for your tasks, then sure, but a pinebook will be cheaper. Otherwise just get an x86 used laptop for 300. the build quality will actually be decent rather then chromebook-like-quality. Anyways, im happy to have a product from a reputable...
no need to be anxious... just sit still while i hook a bunch of things up to your brain. this sounds like a very anxiety inducing situation especially for people with this condition
keep in mind its a fresh install, not a update so it will erase everything on it, backup before you proceede
do you want me to walk you thru how 2 skip that or is [this article](https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/How+to+install+Windows+11+on+unsupported+devices/160527) good enough?
win 10 looses support this october i think. You have time to think about it. since you own multiple computers there is nothing wrong with having a spare harddrive that you can swap into your computer to have win 11. I personaly have a 128gb ssd with win 11 for my probook for this exact reason. granted i havent used it ever (since i install installed it), but its handy incase i ever need it, or if i need to loan it to a friend.
seems the biggest issue this causes is with file explorer. Time for everyone to switch to midnight commander
Its possible in windows to delay an update from taking place, i think up-to a month. There is some type of "pause" feature in the update page that can can click many times to set the maximum delay
I actually agree with him here: If ALL that is being shared is a link. Since this is a post however the content could have been more jucy rather then just sharing a link which falls more into the [trends](https://chat-to.dev/trends) category. That being said he is on mobile and [*?_/ are a bit of a pain to type.
correct
ubuntu is based on debian. it really dont matter what you use. Anything that runs on x86 64 will work for your computer.
the prices for these computers drop super fast. Large companies often buy hundreds at once, or more. and they often sell ALL of them at once too. Supply and demand. when multiple of these companies drop thousands combined at all around the same time, the price MUST drop fast to compensate for the over saturation. also yes, sometimes these laptops are sold in bulk from gov institutions. Look at the price of a brand new top end elietebook, then search on ebay the price of a 2020 model (aprox 5...
yes, i have repaired this types of lptops (not this model specificly) for my clinets. I looked at your proton drive. Some of these materials i already looked at earlier today. I am happy that you have been researching yourself as most people are too lazy to do this. None the less, these guides do not seem to include a raplacment method for touchpad. However on ifixit i found a guide to remove the speakers and this gives me a clear look at the MB and the other internals including the battery and...
if you think its a windows issue. try booting into a live environment from a usb linux drive. the "generic input device" driver should let you know if its hardware if you experience the same failures. Otherwise it will let you know that it is an exclusive windows issue. eliminate potential issues one by one.
i have had intermitient issues before with keyboards. works fine then a few min later it wont. The cause if intermitiency (if thats a word) has been things from heat over time, to the way the chasis flexxed that bakes it connect or not, to it works fine as long as the backlight is off, or whatever. thin ribbon cables are often finniky and dont have a consistent problem and a silver bullet to address all of them. Since none of these driers, bios or nothing has changed, it cant be a software...
yes i am familiar with that page. visited the acer help page first. but as you can see, there have been NO changes recently that would have any effect on the touvhpad, surely not intermitient ones. that is y in the general chat i am more confident that it is a hardware issue instead. imma head 2 bed since i have church in the mornin. ill be free on monday. my plan of action is in the general chat if you wana try by yourself. otherwise i may be on tmw, but unlikley for any meaningful ammount o f...
Yes i too like external batterys, especialy because you could own multiple incase one went bad easier. however your internal battery can very much be removed. in fact is it one of the steps to service your touchpad because 1. you shouldnt service anything that has a battery plugged in, and 2. the battery covers the cable that plugs in the touch pad so it must be removed for service and part swapping. again, in the future get something like [framework](https://frame.work/laptop13) or go...
the age dont matter too much as its really just a machine for me to vid call you on, since to service the machine it will need to be powered off and battery removed. the specs dont matter aslong as you can hear my voice and it has a webcam that can be used to stream to me your workbanch. the re-seed or replacment is easy. no fear. if you cant restore the computer (and there is nothing important on the drive) just reinstall windows or linux on it so its useable at the least.
dont give up yet. i am not often avaliable during sundays, but the process of re-seeding a cable is simple. there is documentation and a reference photo that i believe you already say in the general chat. Also dont forget to get a mouse then completly inunstall the driver then have the device manager automaticly scan for drivers to get a fresh install. If that does not work then its hardware issue which is what i find most probable, hence the reference photo. If you want a walkthough, your...
its not the age really. its more the model. get something commercial grade. A company that is going to buy hundreds of a specific model will not take: "sorry we dont offer support for that anymore" for an answer. they will demand a gaurentee thats parts and documentation exist for atleast a decade. so simply buy the same model as these large companies. if you need specific recomendations: thinkpad, laditude, elietebook. the price:performance ratio is not great on them, but if you are...
haha yea, no starting a cooking room to share recipies or something.
yea i remember them back in the school computer lab. however i would prefer them to the chromebooks that they have in schools now
accurate representation of what some midwestern states think haha. im AZ tho so were getting more blue as more and more cali's migrate here. Yall sure do bring alot of $ with you so its short term good for the local economy :)
gotcha. i left some resources (schematic and reference photo) in the general chat aslong with my gameplan. You will need an extra computer (and a mouse plz) so that i can walk you through
do you have a spare computer to do a video call from? talk to me in the general chat. for the meantime just get a mouse
hopefully not the online version. apparently they really goofed up their security on the backend
average people have gotten used to AI being everywhere. so when deep seek came outta no where and lost the stock market millions. that prob made people who were previously ignoring all the ai news become interested and it might have lead to them getting a boost in users with some short term interest. Additionaly open AI has been integrating itsself into other places. For example, duck.ai is something that ive been using recently when im not running my own model at home (because my models...
clients. clients my dude. but yes, i havent owned a windows machine (except VM) for years at this point. this will be useful for cleints of mine that could use... say a free upgrade to windows pro vs home. might aswell get office while im at it. now wouldnt that be a nice surprise. return customers machine and, wow, its been improved.
not yet, but i have a copy handy now incase its needed in the future
this is an incredibly useful tool [the repo](https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts)
im saying the same thing as him. obfuscation just annoys people, both you (when you inevitably have to maintain it) and the hackers. if its really important, move it to the backend. but dont move everything to backend or else service will b slower. Also y'd i give this a like? im trying to convince you NOT to do it, not encourage you. lol
thank you for your service
I cant be explicit because it is a very vast subject. i believe my last paragraph kinda sums up how i feel about it: "There is no good answer to your question as obfuscation is stupid, and moving everything server side makes the site unusable especially if there are alot of simultaneous users. Some things that are super critical like logins and payment systems should be server side, hence why those processes take longer. But try not to move too much over. Only stuff that you are adamant...
well u have hostinger like me. so im sure you have also gotten the emails: have a friend signup using your link and you get $100 and they get $100 off their next order. Like that. but raspi as reward. It might b easier for someone to just mass email their link to their friends rather then talk 1 on 1 with them to convince them 2 come. additionally it will give you a way to check who invited who and how many total
it wont solve anything. itll just make it harder to maintain. all it will do is make anyone who wants to do something malicious take even longer to do it. All obfusc is, is making your code spaghetti intentionally, having bad variable names, and complicating the code so that anyone reading it gets a headache and quits. Its not real security. Its like me putting up a fence around my house. a simple fence will offer very little security. there is NO barbed wire nothing. just a short waist high...
Is there a way to distribute an invite link so that its easier to track who invited who? it might be easier for people to fufill the requirements if they can just send a friend a link and get a counter going that way. also so far has there been any claimed invites? sure not 10, but how many so far from anyone?
shame this didnt get much attention.
EVERYTHING that is sent to the client device can be discovered. Hell, even with the inspect element tool in the browser you can play around with almost everything. Obfuscation is not a good idea. it just complicates the code, and someone who is really determined to cause problems for you will piece everything together. Making your code deliberately confusing is a stupid and low effort way to solve a problem. Most webpages are designed to be ran similar to a web app. Maybe not for you cuz if...
BOOO! same thing with when facebook marked distrowatch as malware distribution and banned it. how does this happen? they may blame AI moderation, but ai aint this stupid. whos goofin around?
hm
well its a good thing that each individual community can choose wether to integrate this or not. you dont have to add every feature to your community, so those who dislike can ommit this addition. see how great it is to split stuff up and have more control over each instance... so stop whining! if you dont like it, make your own instance and set your own rules and feature sets.
bull. i know nothing about how a pdf handles is js thingy. also im pretty sure this is the same guy who made doom run in pdf absolute nuts

thats y they should leave the reporting to media companies that are tech specific and who know what they are talking about
any censor free model will do that. has nothing to do with it bein Chinese.

about a year ago i asked an ai for debugging help. minus 1 false positive, i was able to solve the solution within 2 prompts. In comparison. if i ask on reddit-clones i have to wait some time for a response that noticed what i messed up and corrects me (or atleast tells me what line the problem is at). with an AI, i dont need to wait. i dont need to commit time to anything, i get instant answers.

hmm. a government official who wants only their own spyware to be used. dislikes open source because he has no control over it. wants to censor the internet in a pro-establishment way... i wonder if theirs any countries that do that already? i wonder how their doin rn.
this was a joke. please dont ever do this XD id prob have a panic attack

i feel this is more a sysadmin job
haha thats funny. what you do with your site is up to you. this is smart. i dont think the content found on any of my sites are valuable to AI, but if you ahve content like that, then i totaly understand y you would wantt to impliemnt this XD
no, not really. was just curious since it was mentioned at top
did u actually read that book or this concept just learned elsewhere?
they aleady said it was an accident. but a big company looking to help another big company, that also just so happens to be a partner of theirs. i wouldnt be surprised.
meta has said this was a mistake and have undone it. still curious to why this was flagged to begin with?
MS and meta have collaborated on stuff before. this is commercially evident with their vr products and stuff, but im talking about [disinformation](https://time.com/7015026/meta-facebook-zuckerberg-covid-biden-pressure-censorship/) policies during covid. this is common practice for these large companies to work together under instruction from us gov. it wouldnt surprise me if the relationship between the 2 companies (which was strengthened during COVID) is being used similarly to how edge...
monoliths are just microservices that are managed by the company you are paying. if your willing to pay an employee rather then a company to manage all the diverse services, you can skip straight to your own microservices and get the benefits sooner. really just up to if you want to pay a employee or a company to manage 4 u

becareful when using systemctl with a custom task. depending on your setup sysctl can halt if the status of a task is failed and it might not move onto the next task (such as continuing to startup your system). Make sure in your task that it will return active or whatever and let you know elsewhere that it failed.
also note: didnt even know that emoji existed XD
yay another privacy advocate
its the dark web. it is mostly drugs haha. yea no the whole gimick of the place was sell whatever you want, it just drugs are the easiest to ship i guess :P
ofcourse. thats the same reason google scans your emails for malware. the same reason at&t listens to your phone calls. same reason microshit wants you to back stuff up in their cloud. for your security. the average person who wants to dual boot their phone with a custom rom, does not need apple telling me what they can/can not do with their phone. that person prob knows what their doing if thats a task they are taking on. rather they lock you down to using them as the only source because...
thats the thing. i was used for other things aswell. now due to the nature of the darkweb it was mostly stuff that couldnt be sold on ebay. malware, stolen info, fake identities, slaves, weapons, adult services, etc. people would use the silk road platform when they wanted to sell stuff they couldnt sell on facebook marketplace or craigslist. it will ofcourse tend to be illegal stuff such as narcotics. Still. creating a website, is not illegal. he didnt directly commit any crimes. he made a...
considering that most apps are free on mobile, thats not a huge issue. and no. look at pc users. Sure on pc there is alot more fake apps that are malware (thats what i assume you mean by attacks). but id rather take the risk rather then have 1 company tell me what i can or can not download
the assassination thing is bogus, and yea, you shouldnt be arrested for creating a medium. he didnt buy or sell any drugs himself. he didnt commit any crimes. its not a crime to create a platform and fail to moderate it. he shouldnt be responsible for what people do/sell on his platform. they should go after the people selling the drugs and guns, rather then the guy who built the site
WAHOO! One should not be punished for crimes they did not commit. You should not be able to take a weapon manufacture to court because a crime committed with a weapon, you should not take a automotive manufacture to court because someone abducted someone with their brand of van, a programmer who makes a very good encrypted messenger app should not be responsible for criminals that uses his app. I dislike this article though. The subtitle clearly takes 1 side. "He created a site to sell...
99% of android users also only get their apps from playstore so its not apple specific. kinda a mobile thing in general. hopefully events like this will show people why its good to be able to load your own software from anywhere onto your device. atleast in the eu they are trying to make some requirements that they open their store a bit. not here in us, its official store ONLY or else you void your warranty.

hopefully people realize that its not a good idea to have all your apps only come form 1 place.

i mean sure, the tos prob lets him do that... but it wont stop a fork from happening.
ive always though mastodon was good for the internet. Thanks to the way it was setup, i dont think an exec like him can do anything harmful except to mastodon.social instance which he admins
so stack overflow is still helping, just secondhand-idly :P
i am rather forgetful
Well the good thing about it, is that with a distributed system, you arent going to be able to just kick threads off all instances because some mastodon exec dont like them anymore. The whole purpose of the project it to keep everything separated so that a person in a top position cant just ban a whole network. None the less its still concerning to see someone with authority over the project show favor or disfavor to one community or another.

Honeslty i think this will be a good thing. People that WERE once neutral about a free internet are either going to be 1. more educated about how the internet works and learn how to circumvent government censorship or 2. they will join with organizations that exist to counter government censorship.

Sure if the documents were stored locally on your phone/computer in a encrypted partition. However most ppl wont do that and will lead to identity theft. Also keep in mind, this dont mean paper passworts will go away, just that you wont NEED to use them at airports of you have a version of it on your phone. makes it much easier then having to bring a paper version with you when you travel
correct. its not like they need us to make all the good stuff anymore. We get more hurt from this then they do
space as in like storage space on your device. or physical clutter? digital: there is nothing you can do, just hope that your apps are optimized and have less bloating dependencies. physical: app explaining how to commit insurance fraud with a house fire. problem solved
do first look into your own bank. if they have a fee-less system, its just better to do a direct deposit that way. also when doing this. make sure to open a new bank account so you can keep your personal & buisness finances seperete. Atleast here in the US thats important if you dont wana be looked into for money laundering
ive used stripe b4. it has some copy-paste code you can just drop in, and it will even give you test tools so you can make sure your $ is sending the right amount and where you want it.

there would b more trolls then real users. look if this is a site that your thinking about building, i assure you this will b the biggest flop you've personally made. A site like this is very very specific about its content. that means it will attract people with very specific purposes, generally not desirable ppl by internet standards.
yea your prob best heading to reddit or discord and finding a community that is open to discussion like that. i doubt there is anywhere to post questions like stack overflow and get feedback from others. If a place like that did exist, it would just be full of trolls. Tell your friend to join a community that will be open to conversation on that subject.
pornhub anyways. i cant imagine a site just for that service. Your better off finding a subreddit or something thats more niche
there is some pretty good text to text interpreters. possibly something reads the capacha as an image and determines what the characters are. For the quick solution y dont u just make emails and accounts unique?
in that case, isnt your question kinda pointless? rather find a way to deter manual bot creation. some email validation possibly? auto-delete new accounts that havent made any inteactions within a week?
does your captcha have a set pool or is it really random?
1 looks like a layout made for mobile devices. 2 seems more info dense: like you can fit more good info on the screen at a glance. i prefer functionally over looks, 2 is more utilitarian.

yet another reminder for gov and large commercial entities to sanitize their inputs.
their game center thing used to be cool. now it just handles syncing and an occasional leader board. no dedicated app to compare with friends n such. Granted i dont think mobile gaming demands such features but its still a shame that it once existed and now has gone away.
yes its just a problem waiting to happen
sounds like a hackers paradise
nah i think that the tool is fine. Creating a ai to have a semblance of a person who passed however is a deliberate and kinda sick joke. The ai is fine tho.
users create their chatbots. the company didnt make her, some person decided to upload photo and descriptions of here to create a chatbot. This was not the company being malicious but rather a person with a cruel sense of humor.
there are a surprising amount of countries that block porn. Im sure this wont stop anyone dedicated enough but whatever.
the cyber attacks were so pointless. They tried to make their point of not liking the USA by going after a private non-profit the IA is not a part of the us gov. All they did was cause problems for the biggest public DB. nothing they did is going to change any war. If they wana make a statement actually go after a us organization, not one that just exist within the usa. None the less im happy its back up. I dont access it often but its handy when no one else has what im looking for. Still...
I think that most of it is still the users, the kids, fault. Sure you can claim the nicotine is addictive and thats y users spend so much $ on it and cant get away, but its them that choose to start. I see this the same way. You downloaded the app, you choose to start investing time into it. The reason you cant get off it is because if the manipulative ways they keep you hooked, but its your fault for joining in the first place. Its a shame how many youth are affected by this, but it was...
how can we make even more money with even less effort. Pair this with the ai content and you should have a even more mind numbing experience. Perfect for youth :)
is there other small communities that you know of that would be willing to collaborate on something hopefully promoting both networks?
yea if only those dont train tags get respected by the ai
isnt this gonna happen in 2070ish again? edit: 2038
no no i get that. what i mean is that i can iterate through all the urls and just add 1 to the num, then skip over post that dont have that element but add ones that do to a list. then a person can go thru the list manually and see all the "hidden" stuff. i dont know y anyone would really want to do that but it seems just really easy to unhide stuff like this. I would suggest making the url be say... the username of the author + a unix timestamp of post creation (now). thatway its...
i dunno. it just seems that if i was nosy enough i could just iterate through the urls untill i find something with a class of alertH and content of hidden post. I get that the threat wouldnt be that big of a deal, but it is still something that someone malicious would take advantage of.
lets say you didnt share this post with me. well if im going thru the normal post, as i see post 720 and 722, its fair to assume that there is a post in that "missing" spot, making it alot less hidden
ummmmm cant i just change the number in the url tho?
they did say that they wernt going to release this code thankfully. Its just a proof of concept. Yet there is still a huge lurking issue. Why is it a problem when these guys do it, but not when your government does? Its like worrying about how bad the air quality is from pollution outside, while smoking. People need to stop hyper fixating on this 1 spooky situation while ignoring the ever increasing one around them established by the ruling power.
so they invested with the intent of profiting. I get that you wana make $ but your userbase is not diverse enough to just pretend that this aint happening.
Very nice. To be clear to everyone, there is nothing wrong with using Js. it can often be easier or simpler to implement. However once you get to larger projects you will have further dependence on Js. The more that you can offload from your JS, the better the webapp will run on very very low end devices where the difference is noticable. The css is loaded once as part of the static bit of the page, once it is loaded its full feature-set is available without needing to (pardon my ruby...
glad to have you!
not necessarily. The more stuff that you can keep out of the dom the faster the more demanding js will run. Css only needs to load once then its full functionality is available. the more small stuff you can offload to the html or css the more resources you can dedicate to the real js functions. Im not saying dont use JS at all, just that js is not needed in this situation (or quite a few others). Save your js headroom for more demanding functions and dont clog the dom with calls that dont need...
css natively support stuff such as on:hover or window focus & all the other mouse interactions. for other events there are workarounds such as for a keypress: ``` <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang=""> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title></title> </head> <body> <style> body { padding: 20px; } div { margin-top: 10px; border: 1px solid black; width: 200px; ...
im not going to complain that they give money to foss, but im not going to believe that its for good intentions. they either want to grow their favor with the foss userbase, or they just have so much money they dont care. Lets be real, i dont think microshit thinks that foss alternatives are a threat to them, so they dont care what we do hence why its no problem to give money to foss.
Its all a show to them. They dont care about foss. They also donate alot to the linux foundation for example. cant pretend that they are friendly to linux users. same thing with github, just because they put alot of $ into it and maintain it dont mean they really care about foss. github is probably just a place for them to train their ai to attempt and make us obsolete. they might have other reaons idk, but i cant imagine a for profit company caring about anything else then $.
css ``` body { padding: 20px; } div { margin-top: 10px; border: 1px solid black; width: 200px; height: 100px; padding: 5px; } input:checked + label + div { display: none; } input + label:after { content: " To Hide"; } input:checked + label:after { content: " To Show"; } label { background-color: yellow; box-shadow: inset 0 2px 3px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2), inset 0 -2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); border-radius:...
All of these just have the js grab all elements with the id "myElement" then apply a style to them... but you just have the css grab #myElement and skip the js entirely and apply the hidden there. Just seems like alot of extra steps. For example 3, you create an element with an id, then you have js grab all elements and add a class to them, then go to css and have all items with that class b hidden. why? just have the css grab the id and hide it, no need to even add classes to the...
yes this is open for anyone. there is a room: [room](https://chat-to.dev/chat?q=Community_learning) for people who would like to participate.

dont put web portals in cars then you wont have this issue. No one asked for these features anyways. Its just a thing they put in cars for their (kia's) benefit. With all the telemetry they can sell data to advertisers and insurance companies. This online connectivity was not added for your good but theirs. If you reduce your surface area of attack by removing stuff like this you wont have to worry about getting hacked. I hope this becomes yet another class action lawsuit so brands...
great. now make it federal
Its ok that they invest into it. but dont neglect the general consumers just because there is money to be made on corporate contracts. dont forget the normal consumer
nvidia seems to be improving their open source support which is pleasant. however their further neglect of the consumer market in favor of AI is disappointing.
what a shame. It wasnt a popular community <300 members, but it was still nice to have another large supporter backing a distributed network. I hope they still continue to donate to the development of it one way or another still. Either monetarily or having one of their devs assist which they have done in the past.
i dunno. Ive never bothered to check. I do know that it is a paid service tho
acxiom sells data about people online purchases and search trends. Just become a certified creep and you be able to know what someone is lookin at on amazon and such.

the wouldnt need to do this if they didnt acquire all these studios to begin with. Dont buy all your competitors then be unable to afford all them. stupid

Most people who want to see the outdated, obsolete version of the site will already go to the wayback machine. <br> Its a kind gesture from google i guess, but i dont think that google users will really make use of this.

Don'tcha love it when error messages dont tell you the error.
Let me know what you would like to learn and reasons we should learn it! :)
Honestly I dont think there is much that google can do to not be so dominant and more. Almost everyone optimizes there stuff for googles search. almost everyone uses a gmail and its too much of a pain to get millions of people to switch especially those who have it as their only email that theve used the last decade. Hell, most devices ship with 8.8.8.8 as their default dns. developers make everything compatable with the google eco system. they have a heavy hand on how android progresses....
agreed. I wish more people would wake up and understand what is bein taken from them. Good alternatives do exist, but people aren't aware of their existence since the alternatives dont advertise because they dont receive $ cuz they dont sell your data. Its self fulfilling :(
sounds like they just made themself obsolete. Signal better anyways.
that is affordable for alot of people. I cant bash people for storing stuff there if that is your only option. None the less i would personally rather own my own storage aswell as a offsite backup. Cloud solutions are only so good until you reach multiple tb of space at which point it is a pain to stream some content from it. I also have pretty shoddy internet in my area so its not always reliable enough use those services. Finally i dont trust some of the major providers as i dont want the...
tragic. Guess its a good thing i individually archive. I recommend everyone to become a data hoarder. the only reason that traditional library's get away with it because its state funded and the state wont wana loose money so they are exempt. they are literately above the laws. what a bs ruling.
I think it depends how far its going to scale up. It take a surprisingly small amount of infrastructure to run some things that might have a user base in the thousands. all about what type of service and how optimized it is and all that crap. Anyways learning backend will not make you a good sys admin, you need to learn and get different certs for that. However you can totally learn both, just be sure to let your company not take advantage of you.
I feel that there needs to be a fine line for businesses to understand. devops does not mean ill develop and maintain both my project and all of the infrastructure to keep it running. That is a different role. you dont get a 2 for one. Having devop skills means that as your are developing, your are aware of the production environment that it will be ran in and can create your project in a way that is friendlier to maintain. being able to understand the tools that a sys admin uses and thinking...
there are plenty of circumvention strategies. hopefully this spurs them to realize what was taken away from them and encourage them to have more preventative measures in the future.
I have mixed feelings about this. One i disagree about who is truly at fault. should the platform be responsible because the failed to moderate content like this. If that is the case, then what happens if the content is not eligible for moderation because there is no rules against it? Content like trying to choke yourself till you pass out is stupid. but what about something like free divers. one is a legitimate sport, however if there was a free-diving challenge and a bunch of amateurs give it...
