Sometimes, it's backwards
  • No one on earth trusts McAfee, be it the abysmal man or abysmal AV suite.

    If the EDR or AV software is causing issues with your code running, it's possibly an issue with the suite, but it's more likely an issue with your code not following common sense security requirements like code signing.

  • US judge demoted after detaining teenage girl during field trip to courtroom
  • My link goes into it, but thats what the court oversight commission in the state wants. An inhouse system where streams and their features are centrally controlled. They have not been able to get funding to stand that up, but they have been advocating for it.

    Their current recommendation is that YouTube comments be disabled, but they don't have the legal mandate to enforce that apparently. This judge's shitty behaviour may help them make that case at least.

  • Boris Johnson: we considered ‘aquatic raid’ on Netherlands to seize Covid vaccine
  • But notice how he pretends he secretly agreed it should not be done, even though he proposed it and then did not agree that it was the wrong action at the time, which makes him look severly bonkers, as it should.

    Hes just sane washing his own insane actions in his new book, recasting history to make excuses for his bad behavior.

    He goes into partygate excuses as well, when his staff were breaking lockdown rules his government set, and claims "ohh, I didn't even have cake at my party. It didn't even occur to me it was a party without cake."

    Just complete bollocks.

  • Microsoft’s more secure Windows Recall feature can also be uninstalled by users
  • It's a bit grating as it's preaching to the choir here, but people mainly do not know you can replace the OS, or frankly what an OS is.

    You really do have to evangelize for change to make this even occur to people.

  • AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs
  • Not really. I'm not even sure what you're disagreeing with based on the above comment.

    My point is that if bog standard AI can accurately identify all of the road information from pictures, that is good news for self driving.

    What was once a nearly impossible task for computers is now mundane, and can be used to improve safety/utility for self driving, especially for FOSS projects like comma.ai

  • AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs
  • Its never been confirmed by Google, so I may be wrong. It still tracks that the data harvesting company with a AI self driving car project would use free human labor to identify road hazards.

  • AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs
  • This is actually a good sign for self driving. Google was using this data as a training set for Waymo. If AI is accurately identifying vehicles and traffic markings, it should be able to process interactions with them easier.

  • US judge demoted after detaining teenage girl during field trip to courtroom
  • The bigger picture here is that he had an active YouTube livestream with roughly a 1000 fans that he used to interact with while in cases over the last few years. He even repositioned the cameras for them while he was harrasing that poor girl.

    Its clear that his treatment of her was not only an ego trip, but one done for views.

  • Hacking Kia: Remotely Controlling Cars With Just a License Plate.
  • The Kia/Hyundai "challenge" where people were stealing their cars with a USB cord is because they opted not to include an immobilizer in US models for a decade. Every other car brand had them as standard. Kia even had them as standard in non US cars, but because the USA stupidly does not have a law about it, they opted to drastically reduce car security to save a few dollars per car.

    This has made them prime targets, as people know they make bad security choices whenever they can save a buck.

    So a bit of both, I expect.

  • Alabama executes death-row prisoner with nitrogen gas
  • I think they found extreme PTSD in the executioners that used that method.

    You don't know if you killed them or not, a lot of times. That will gnaw at people who aren't okay with killing, especially in such a cold and sterile way.

    Plus, it isn't always quick.

  • Newsmax and Smartmatic settle 2020 US election defamation lawsuit
  • A "news" company can't promise that. They can pay ludicrious amounts of money though, which is likely what happened. Fox news gave them nearly an entire year of revenue. I'd expect this to be about the same.

  • Eureka
  • It's common to use a trellis with cucumbers to have their vines grow vertically instead of covering all of the horizontal space of a garden. That makes cucumbers "hang" in the air like a fruit on a tree, and would lead to those motion lines in a fall.

  • Woman behind Neo-Nazi plot to destroy Maryland's power grid sentenced to 18 years in prison
  • She was working as a terrorist go between in this case. I guarantee she was involved with hundreds or even thousands of nazi terror plots as the admin of a nazi terror network.

    This isn't someone running a tropical fish forum that was negligent and let it become a hotbed for racists. She started and directly participated in many of these plots. I have no sympathy at all.

  • Chief O'Brien at Work #30 - Battle Stations
  • On the bridge, so officers can look cool. No way the "we have first backup, but what about second backup" federation doesn't have redundant, localized inertia damping in the cargo bays.

  • My Neighbor didn't grow Heritage Sunflowers but Prehistoric ones
  • I'm growing half a dozen mammoth sunflowers that all have multi heads right now. They look exactly like OPs picture.

    They may be a variant, but that's what they were called on the seed packet I used.
