Chinese hackers ready to ‘wreak havoc’ on critical US infrastructure with 50-to-1 cyber personnel advantage, FBI director warns
  • If you look at a map of China and the Pacific you can see that the "first island chain" of US allies totally surrounds China. From their military and strategic point of view they are being contained.

    Now if China were to control the island of Taiwan they would break that containment. It's very likely they care more about the strategic position rather than whatever it is they say about wanting to reunite with the Taiwanese. They don't give a shit about the Taiwanese, they just want the island.

  • I actually got better performance in BG3 with my Arch system compared to Windows. The game crashes to desktop every 10 minutes in windows and runs relatively stable in Linux.

  • An Asian MIT student asked AI to turn an image of her into a professional headshot. It made her white with lighter skin and blue eyes.
  • No company would use ML to classify who's the most professional looking candidate.

    1. Anyone with any ML experience at all knows how ridiculous this concept is. Who's going to go out there and create a dataset matching "proffesional looking scores" to headshots?
    2. The amount of bad press and ridicule this would attract isn't worth it to any company.
  • Humble Bundle: Myst & More
  • You just reminded me of that maze rotation puzzle where the controls for rotation were behind a very long loading screen. That was just pure torture. I almost gave up on the game right there. Wtf were the devs thinking?

    We must end the tyranny of printers in American life
  • Clearly not, or it would have caught on by now. I've been using Linux for almost 20 years now, I've tried open hardware phones and e-readers. Not bragging, just saying I would be the target demographic here, but I've never even heard of a serious open hardware printer effort.

  • DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too
  • Imagine going on the piracy Lemmy community and preaching the moral wrongs of copying.

    Seriously though, DRM is a cancer. I usually pirate my books from LibGen, but I buy them on the Kobo store at the same time to support the author. It's easy to strip DRM from Kobo and they're better than Amazon, but I would really prefer not to support a store with DRM in the first place.

    Can anyone recommend a DRM-less store? Something akin to GOG for books.

  • This will not stop cheating
  • In this whole article and there wasn't even a single sentence on how these AI detectors could have false positives. Cheating or plagiarism are incredibly serious accusations and they can ruin a young person's career before it even gets started. But of course these corpo types don't give a shit. They'll keep on pretending that they ChatGPT "always has a tell".

    That's not even to mention that there are plenty of ways of using AI that are not cheating. You can use it to proofread, to edit and to critique your essay.
