What are we missing, oh wise one? Are you going to share your humanity-saving knowledge? Or just keep it to yourself so you can act superior over everyone?

I’d be happy to be wrong, tbh.

Nice to see him personally eat shit, but it won’t change anything substantially. This bubble is bigger than one douchebag.

Lol. “If you don’t use the overhyped new product that’s ruining our main product, you can’t use anything.” Tech companies have always been…“unusual” in their reasoning, but this is another level of illogical.

The only way “ai” ends humanity is with the climate crisis. It’s the same problem. These dumbass skynet fears have no place in legitimate journalism.

Got it. That’s reassuring. Thanks again for the explanations!

First, thank you for the detailed response. I really appreciate it.

So from your explanation, I’m to understand that the risk here is just exposing sent data. Bad actors can’t spoof these certificates to send bad data or malware to a device?

Ok, so random networks (free WiFi) are even more risky, but what about mobile data networks? And is my home WiFi at risk? Is this an “update my router/modem” situation?

Second, what applications are at risk? Browsers are obvious, but most apps connect to the internet in some way. Is my lemmy app at risk? The local transit app? What about side loaded apps?

Also, are there any reasonable options for those eol devices? Assuming apps can be updated, what’s the risk level for a device that’s not receiving official updates anymore? Are there options or are the SoL?

Sorry for the deluge of questions. This is just confusing and concerning, and most comments I’ve seen are just jokes or assume a higher base of knowledge than most people have. Thanks for taking the time to break it down a bit better.

*Also, how legit is this site everyone is saying to check browsers on? Feels pretty sketchy to have a random site verifying safety in the middle of a situation like this.

Stop spreading the propaganda of these shit companies.

Couldn’t undermine the country more if they tried, which makes one wonder.

Steve Mould has a great video digging into why things look white: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gug67f1_8jM

Probably not strictly translatable to all other colors, but a helpful illustration of how color is a result of the way objects interact with light, not inherent properties of the object itself.

Whinging about a fact being wrong without providing a correction is worse than the one being wrong.

We made sourdough. Newton defined the foundations of math and science.

When you’re so obsessed with getting LLMs to replace your employees that you end up using it to replace you.

You might notice I didn’t say it was impossible to do so.

Unless the entire game is provided, then it will always be a DRM check. If they’re just providing data for a preliminary download, then the buyer is still left to rely on being give access to download the rest of the data.

Considering the size of the game, it would need at least 3 discs. Doubt they’re gonna redesign every case to accommodate that.

has anyone tried this?

Yeah, a little bit ago: https://www.si.edu/object/automaton-friar:nmah_855351

Sounds like you went to one of the schools in the article. If they treat their degrees as measly job door stops, then of course they aren’t gonna give a shit if the students actually learn anything. With an actual education, it won’t matter if “ai” destroys the applicable career because the student actually learned what they paid to learn.

And, if all the doomsaying about chatbots were actually true, no job is safe anyhow and going to a school like this is just fucking yourself twice over. Study for yourself, not for the piece of paper you get at the end.
