That's a petty troll response to a legitimate statement of what someone wants (which aligns with this group's stated focus), where they aren't claiming what they have done

Yeah, this has been a known thing in the credit world for years-- they call it bust out fraud. These days they have computer statistical models watching for stuff like this, and will likely shut you down before you get to your limit.

I got under the dashboard and removed the SIM from my Leaf. Took a screwdriver and 15 minutes, but Youtube showed me the entire process.

Huh?

So, if we have the choice of something 90% open and 10% closed, versus 100% closed, you're saying the first option is invalid to even desire, because it isn't 100% open.

Wow. Just, wow.

@[email protected] This is a very reasonable approach. Many people don't appreciate the effort involved to be a moderator, so let me just say thank you for your work here!

It took me about 15 minutes or so to remove the SIM chip from the telematics unit in my 2015 Nissan Leaf. Just followed a youtube video that showed everything step-by-step.

It's not what food "AI" controls, it's what food Big Corps control. When you look at things like Monsanto -> Bayer GMO crop patents, John Deere unrepairable tractors, and on and on, it's pretty ugly. AI is just the next tool in the agriculture mega-corps' anti-consumer march, to continue to "optimize" gouging money from everyone else.

Yes, many bad ideas are possible to implement. At least temporarily. Until the next cleanup process figures out how to remove cadvisor dir regardless of file contents. Or the next OS release turns /tmp into a ram disk. Or... or... or...

Yes, it's a fun academic exercise to think through possible mitigations. And in the end, it will still be dumb to keep this in /tmp

Why wouldn’t changing to permissions keep the file from being deleted by the internal process?

That's like keeping your lunch laying outside on the sidewalk, getting stepped on by people and destroyed, and then wondering if your lunch would be safer if you put it in a stronger bag (but still left it on the sidewalk).

Don't leave your lunch outside laying on the sidewalk, regardless of what you might do to "protect" it. Don't keep important files in /tmp

For a certain very specific usage of the word "better"

When a coworker asks me what LLM stands for, I tell them "Literature Larceny Machine"

buttons were discovered by the Conbee and worked perfectly fine, but the home assistant refuses to recognize their functionality.

That's not the hardware stick; that's the controller software stack. Sounds like you switched from deConz to ZHA to go with the hardware change. In which case, this is all fixed by using Zigbee2MQTT instead of HA's built-in ZHA. Z2M supports more hardware and features than ZHA.

I can't answer for OP here, but the explanation I often see on Lemmy is "poisoning/messing with the AI web crawlers"

unless you’re using a password manager capable of tracking those for you.

Doesn't every password manager have a "notes" field these days?

Sure, you're still using fossil fuels in that case-- for a few hours or maybe a few days a year, not every single day forever.

I would wonder about leaching. Modern lead-free plumbing solder is safe for drinking water, but is silphos considered safe for drinking water?

Not Twilight itself, but 50 Shades of Gray started as a Twilight fan fiction

Dude I was putting industrial control systems behind firewalls 25 years ago, for exactly this very scenario. Which had not happened yet, but even then it was completely obvious to every network engineer that this would happen eventually.

Remotely accessible? Of course. Directly on the public internet with default credentials? Idiots.

Yeah, English sucks. Worst part here is that both spellings can be used as either noun or verb, though the alternate forms are rare.

Most common forms:

1. Affect - verb - to alter or change. "The rise of LLMs has affected how people use the Internet"
2. Effect - noun - result of change: "The effect of LLMs has been to make people dumber".

Rare forms:

1. Effect - verb - to implement or make happen: "The new legislation will effect a change in policy to ...."
2. Affect - noun - emotional state or expression: "His affect changed and you could see him cringe when the boss endorsed AI"

The first two are what you want pretty much all of the time.

1, 2, and 3 are all pronounced the same, with emphasis on the second syllable: "uh FECT". Number 4 is pronounced with emphasis on the first syllable: "AFF ect"

So that's more than anyone wanted to know today :)
