So all those "red room" legends were true. It's just that instead of being in the dark web, it was broadcast in public for the world to see. How dystopian.

The charges were very much because they were looking for any possible reason to put him behind bars for the act of buying that house.

The short is that the acquiring bank of PayPal has banned transactions to Steam in all non-Western currencies (exception being Japanese Yen).

Time to switch to Qobuz then. Goodbye Spotify.

A swirl is a distortion that is non-destructive. Am anonymity blur averages out pixels over a wide area in a repetitive manner, which destroys information. Would it be possible to reverse? Maybe a little bit. Maybe one pixel out of every %, but there wouldn't be any way to prove the accuracy of that pixel and there would be massive gaps in information.

Who produces the chips that make AMD products? They are the bottleneck. If those fabs are already overloaded, a new product won't help in any way.

Clearly the world should have let Serbia continue it's genocide. /S

People bitch when NATO stops a genocide and people bitch when NATO doesn't.

The conditions in prisons are inhumane.

That's terrifying.

It's not worthless anymore even if no human reads it. Other bots pick it up and regurgitate it, as proved by Ars Technica's article that was itself AI generated.

If you're on Windows and use Windows Defender, you should be safe as it has been updated to detect and block the vulnerability.

You're right. I meant more by "non-destructive" that it is, depending on factors like intensity and known algorithm, reversible.

Many? Wasn't it only 2?

You mean: have it's neck broken by the falling mass of a shit-mountain of LLM-slop?

The LLM will just make up lies in the formal verification.

The United Earth Government was an authoritarian, inclusive, and militaristic government. They acted as a mercantile empire with their colonies. Still, as authoritarian as the UEG is, as shady as it's intelligence agency (ONI) is, what the Republicans have turned into is far worse.

The UEG would not encourage killing migrants and refugees. The Republicans are.

Where Republicans seek to institute a form of ethnostate theocracy, the UEG has freedom of religion and couldn't care less about the color of your skin or which region you come from.

Well yeah it's a zero day, so not much an AV can do. I'm just quoting the article.

There is already an EDI policy for recruitment in the CAF. Has been in place for at least a decade now.

Let's be clear; this is an organization with more than 60 thousand members. It is bound to have some extremists pop up inside of it. Best we can do is keeping on what we are already doing: monitoring as best we can (without infringing on the few remaining freedoms soldiers keep), and aggressively pursuing every found Nazis/extremists.

Not to say the CAF is perfect, but it's petty intense the efforts that have been deployed since 2010 to "prpgressize" the Canadian military.

Or just the ages old solution of leaving a spare to a trusted neighbor.

I can't imagine that they could be worst than the existing VISA and MasterCard duopoly.
