I feel like most of those AI generated websites follow the same pattern of repeating the same comparison (today vs after it passes, now vs future)

This has been default experience for "normies" for quite some time now. Same for Google gallery which syncs to gdrive.

Just today we had a guy who got similar messages from one drive as one in the blogpost, and made the mistake of asking chatgpt about it. After renaming, moving, deleting and even doing regedit as llm instructef, some of the files went missing, some we managed to find.

Few weeks ago I had to explain over the phone how to setup windows without ms account, and we had to resort to turning off WiFi in the house lmao

Looks alot like mozilla's project fluent, atleast in the basic use case.

I wonder why it hasn't been adopted more widely.

I went into a slight hunt for more knowledge after reading this, and long story short you need to search NFMI (near field magnetic induction)[1]. As far as I can see from my limited reading the main use case of the tech is nfc (near field comm) and true wireless earbuds.

Those "least well-off" that happen to live in the zone, which is less and less each year due to gentrification

This is some 1960s level of optimism lol. While I applaud the authors enthusiasm, this will break as soon as a warship shows up at your free city, and your society (made up of people who avoid governments as much as possible) turns out to not be willing to fight for yours. This doesn't have to be a warship - I would wager that at first major obstacle many would defect.

The closest historical analog seem to be Jewish communities of medieval europe, perhaps up to 1900s. They could sometimes get different treatment, and had some structures, although never as centralised. Some countries even wanted them for their knowledge/skillset and connections (?) which lines up with digital nomad's attributes.

I think lots of non-EU and non-technical bloggers would likely see the email I had and think they were in breach of something like you say they are probably not.

This is true for all laws, all scams, all ads.

The article has the same usb-c photo three times, but doesn't actually explain what it is, or how it works.

How do normal paper printers work on such networks? From what I gather there is some standardised solution to that, wherein here bambu requires their own "connect" software, correct?

I think that big enterprises are full of old systems that are put on vans, vpns, conditional access rules etc., so it's weird to me that ftp is such a problem?

There is also a point in their tos: 7.4 - boils down to "your printer will block printing until you accept critical security patches" that directly contradicts the linked blog post

WHO wasn't supposed to be a tool of soft power, and the fact it turned to one makes the decision to leave it all more valid. What soft power does a healthcare organisation provide, that couldnt be better served by your own means?

As for sharing - text fragments could also do for a nice addition: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Fragment/Te...

Yep, Matt (wordpress guy) has a dramatic writing style, but in essence WPE is using plugins, their security research, user system, theming store etc, without contributing back that much.

Worth adding that WPE is owned by private equity, and they allegedly tried to remove the newsfeed from wp-admin to hide his (dramatic) posts about them

royalty free implementation

Yeah, but not the spec itself, meaning it's hard to have both secure and conforming implementation.

When I read "Advantage Air" I needed to check if I am reading sequel to Cory Doctrow's "unauthorised bread" because of how dystopian it sounded

Each country's banks/tech firms have invented their own way that is either tied to one app or the banking system/bank account. It is not anonymous for the buyer, and it always requires a central server for every transaction. From what I gather GNU taler solves those problems.

It is much better for govt as well. Instead of having untracked cash flows not paying taxes, now you can ensure taxes are paid (in EU seller is responsible for paying taxes). So your local govt can sell you this new (old) system as being just like cash, decentralised, anonymous, with no banking institutions at play, while having a closer watch on increasingly convoluted tax codes.

As for donations, it's still good. Instead of having vast amount of cash flow unnoticed as bribes/corruption, now you atleast know that the politician received that amount of money. I don't see how it is worse that normal cash.if one can cap amount of anonymous donations with banks and cash, why not do the same here?

Even reading thru all the new law to cross check it with existing products is alot of work for micro companies. We already felt it with GDPR, and this seems much worse in that regard.

I have mixed feelings about CRA, but I am satisfied with FOSS protections. I wish it could allow for more commercialization though,not just donating.

As for commercial work, it's good to have a lighter regime for small, low risk products, but it's still alot of head scratching and uncertainty on our part. Also ditto for independent HR and payroll systems, as they aren't low risk. I wonder if their VPN/VM setups they always included work towards security of the app? Again, more work figuring that out.

Static IPv4 is very important for getting into networking. Out of my friends, one had a free semi-static IPv4 (rotated once a year iirc), now he has the best paying job in devops. Another one had a cheap surcharge to get it, also turned into a job after few years. My other friend had (and still has) a cg-Nat, so never got into any deep IT stuff, other then PC building.

You are very knowledgeable (for your coding and bug bounties) and very lucky (for the static ip, as well as understanding parents lol)!

I found it mildly funny/amusing.

Why would you want to announce to the client that he is tripping on a security? When erratic behaviour is detected, systems usually deny access or request more authentication.

In the second case, this seems like a nice quality of life code, but this should be mentioned in the rfc and not left for me to figure out. Besides, a more generic "please reauthenticate now" would fit better (as to not expose the reason?) or even reusing the 403 forbidden could work for this usecase.

Yep, my local city (over 1M residents) mayor was deep faked into selling crypto on yt ads. Reporting did nothing, I just got email 3 days later that the ad is alright.

The voice was in local language, while subtitles were in English. They did not match, possibly to evade detection by the more advanced, English, tooling.

This talks about foreign countries applying & enforcing your countries court orders (within EU). I don't think it can be stretched to include case law in your new case.

You could try that in court since the base gdpr is the same, but EU law implementations still differ.

But it doesn't catch fraudsters!

Point fo captcha is to make sure that there is a human eg. writing this comment or creating account.

If I used this (admitedly cool and useful) rate limiter instead of real captcha I would have 1000s of ai generated posts and 100s of new accounts. Yes, it would be rate limited and spread over a day or week, and servers would easly handle it, but that's not the point. I don't want this fake activity at all - that's the point!

This seems like a good alternative/addition to cloudflare and their anti ddos features though (?)
