People here started again about building 7.

Which had the roof of the north tower fall right on top of it, that piece of tower was a about the same size as building 7.

Weird how it "collapsed and burned to the ground". Must be a conspiracy.

It's still entertaining to read tho.

Iran and Houthi rebels used Anthropic's Claude AI to target US warships and build hypersonic missiles — Houthi rebels also used the bot to code ballistic missile guidance systems

Reply in thread

The 'safeguards' of AI are funny, as they are manually put in by humans on certain phrases and token triggers. By rephrasing it you trigger a whole new token chain that bypasses the known ones.

Or, you know, get any of the hundreds of models you can self host that don't have any of the safeguards in place or can be broken.

In the end it matters very little. It actually kinda sounds like the the same kind of fear mongering when Google became useful in the 2000s.

Now everyone can find the Anarchist Cookbook! Why won't anybody think of the children! Terrorism! Rabble, rabble rabble.

Terrorism depends on the nation

Reply in thread

It were the Zionists that orchestrated a 2 week long jew hunt in Amsterdam, November 2024.

It were the Zionists that attacked Israel on the 7th October 2023 to give Netanyahu the Casus Belli for the topic of this discussion.

It were the Zionists that wasted tens of billions of aid funds in Gaza for war and suppression, rather than their own people.

It were the Zionists that attempted to kill the kings of Jordan and Egypt.

It were the Zionists that threw Lebanon in to a civil war.

The Palestinian people their worst enemy, are the Palestinian people.

Only 1 country in that region has all 3 Abrahemic religions living within their borders, how come? Please explain how the Zionists did that?

I don't disagree. If you wouldn't be spewing basic propaganda by obviously not knowing any details about this conflict besides "Jews bad", this could've been an interesting conversation.

But purposely ignoring the Palestinians attacking Israel the past 20 years (bulldozers 20 years ago, stabbings today, tens of thousands of rockets a year), the Palestinians cheering on 9/11, the Palestinians declaring war on Israel twice, the Palestinians causing shit in Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt. The Palestinians calling for a fatwa that got Jews killed in the US, Europe and China. Acting like the Palestinians are some innocent harmless people.

There were Jew hunts in Europe in 2024 orchestrated by Hamas and Iran!!

Gaza could've been an Utopian paradise with the tens of billions of Euro they received in the past 20 years, they used it to build a guerilla warfare state. And not because "Jews are bad", but simply because "Palestinians also suck".

I totally think Israel should be the civilized of the two and use their dominant position for the greater good, but I cant fault them for this FA stage in 2023's new case of Fuck Around and Find Out.

RIP Palm and Nokia

Reply in thread

Still dislike Microsoft for cheaping out on the later generations Lumia. Cheaper displays so the 950 didnt support Glance. Wth?

I still miss my 920 tho. The Lumia 920 is only recently dethroned as my favorite (smart)phone of all time.

Microsoft messed up badly in Europe by completely and utterly ignoring the continent. Nokia managed to gain a larger marketshare than Apple in both Italy and France at the time. With meaningful marketshares in the rest of Europe.

Nokia was doing alright in several Asian countries Microsoft ignored as well.

After the take over, Microsoft kept all their resources forced on the US market, failed and in turn lost the European and Asian markets.

GG.

Stop the tracking circus. Kill the cookie banner!

I would wish the EU would be more strict in its laws. Cookiebanners are NOT required when you only use functional cookies that the website technically needs to work. I never had to show the banner for my websites, because I simply don't include 3rd party bullshit, no ads, no tracking.

Same with the new age rating rules, websites and communities that aim at CHILDREN are required to not be invasive when checking for age (ID checks are last fucking resorts!). If your website or community is obviously 18+, like porn, gore and such websites. There is no requirement for an age check!

Fuck the companies abusing our EU systems and that put the EU in a bad spotlight because of RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE social media ragebait.

Why the fuck is it socially acceptable for billion dollar (foreign!) tech companies to manipulate our children?

Why did we normalize getting our asses spied on? And why are we accepting the excuse of these tech companies to scan our ID's and passports?

The GDPR does not allow scanning of identity cards/passports except for a very limited section. Like: banks, your employer, your health insurance and your government. These tech companies are not on the GDPR VIP list.

The 7 october 2023's bodycam footage will haunt me when I turn senile.

It is ignored by most people just like Iran bombing Tel Aviv in october 2024, by Iranian official statements, celebrate Hamas their actions a year prior.

The current result in Gaza was the only realistic outcome of what started 3 years ago.

However this is not proportionate and is just making sure this cycle will continue forever by creating a new generation of 'terrorists'. It is a dumb course of action and even though most of the world hates on Israel for the wrong reasons, the international pressure is valid.

Israel pretends to be a civilized nation, then it should start acting like it.

AI bot hacking/scraping Home Assistant

Reply in thread

It's been that case since forever now. Nothing has really changed and the same rules still apply.

I still remember 'hacking' my ISP ADSL router 2+ decades ago and listening to the WAN interface. Hundreds of thousands of attempts per day in the early 2000s. Mostly US, Russia and China.

My personal #1 threat on the internet for the past 20 years has been DDOS and thanks to billions of IOT devices and privacy invading 'smart' appliances everywhere.... The botnets have never been this plenty. DDOS as a Service for mere cents a day.

LLM's joined the fray in recent years but it still can't do anything it hasn't learned from us humans.

Your reminder to remove the microphone from your TV remote today

Oh don't worry. These tech companies pretty much all do this. If the TV's aren't listening and even watching us. It are our iOS and Android based smartphones and watches. Our in home smart cloud connected "security" camera's. Our 'smart' doorbells, fridges, ovens. Our Windows/Macbook laptops. Our cars.

We're already long passed the dystopian threshold.

The worst part is, the vast majority of people chose for this and socially shunned people that never opted in for this 1984 bullshit.

LG is nothing, last year Apple settled for spying on their users. Nobody cared. Facebook has been charged for this, multiple times, nobody cares considering the popularity of Whatsapp and Instagram to this day. Everybody goes wild about the new iPhone, haha, it's an absolute privacy nightmare that's spying 24/7.

LG is just a popular target now because they're Asian.
