@evacide@hachyderm.io Mine is PIN protected and I would never give my PIN. What I wonder is I put the duress PIN on a piece of paper and put it inside of the protective shield. If they found it and entered it am I liable because I knew they might do that. But truthfully I've forgotten my duress PIN and would need to do this to remember it.

@arstechnica@mastodon.social Stop using this kind of language "...it enters a state of delusion...". A probabilistic automation can not become delusional. It is just a model error.

@bsdphk Loved using Ada in the 80s, but all the C bros convinced everyone that Ada was too slow. Real world testing only showed about a 2-3% advantage to C. Until you forced the C coders to put in all the range checks, etc. that Ada provided, then it was a different story.

@20002ist@thepit.social @mattblaze@federate.social What I don't understand is why we didn't cheat again in 2024.

@chillybot I can see the VCs lining up

@emilymbender@dair-community.social another thanks for writing this. It helps me to better understand the methods they use to obscure the facts.

@OpenComputeDesign@linuxrocks.online @badsamurai@infosec.exchange I hate it. I believe I have at least 3 accounts with them now. Had to use it with SoS and State Taxes. Some how that created two accounts. I still have another that works with SSA and IRS.

@nixCraft well glad I'm retired as my 1-finger salute when asked to a hand in front of face probably wouldn't go over very well. Maybe it would and that might indicate a good place to work.

@bookwar Nearly 5 decades ago pretty much 100% of the code I developed was for government work. My first job was a major upgrade of government developed system that had been running successuflly for over 2 decades. We were using a programming language developed by the government. This was on hardware built by private companies to government specs and requirements. Funny thing when Reagan came in and pushed COTS I regularly started seeing articles in RISKS about all the failures in the real world when military systems started using Windows and lots of non-government developed systems. Oh and that first system I worked on went back to work on a contract to maintain it. Was a nightmare of COTS hardware and software. The team I was on convinced them to swtich to C, I left and watched that ship sink from afar.

@MattisCB @dec23k Seems like that is how it works plus the distraction of listening to loud music: https://www.dekra.mx/en/keep-your-ears-open-in-traffic/

@OWOP@mastodon.world @RickiTarr@beige.party Had a boss (owner of the company) that if you came to him to complain about a problem he would try to fix it. We all soon learned stop doing that, generally (ok always) his solutions made it even worse!!!

@davep@infosec.exchange Wish I could remember who posted the fake third hand idea while driving. So they could claim it was AI generated when the photo ticket was submitted as proof.

@wirthy@functional.cafe @cdarwin@c.im Funny seems like the best price is for Chinese Jianmei Glass. They seem to sell under many different brand names for prices so low it seems like its a scam.

@MizFidd@beige.party Called in sick once from a bad encounter. Boss was an ex-marine and thought I was slacking. So I came in the next day and they sent me home. I had gauze on both arms leaking yellow fluid. Side of my neck swollen on the left side (lots of gauze) and oozing. They said come back in next week.

@j0ebaldw1n @mirabilos @fesshole :thumbsup_claw:

@bagder@mastodon.social I voted 1 but thats because I think maybe one with a score over 8.

@cdarwin@c.im Dental and Eyecare is rediculus. Always an upsell. I friggin' tired of the upsell. It worse then trying to buy a new car in the 70s.

@cstross@wandering.shop @mattblaze@federate.social I was working mainly DoD stuff then and loved all talk of digitizing the up to then mostly analog systems. Many of the issues was all the analog safety feedback mechanisms not being implemented at all in the digital controllers.

@RickiTarr@beige.party I can see why you feel that way.

@grant_h@mastodon.social@june@social.nekover.se @iamada@tech.lgbt @Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt How so as it seems to be working with my browser. I first load the page and then enabled JS. It revealed a lot. I turned of the temp allow, flushed all the cookies, et al. Then re-opened the page and nothing revealed.

@mysturji@mastodonapp.uk @64bithero@mstdn.games If someone I follow retoots I either turn off seeing them or if they are interesting I move all of their toots/retoots to a list. That way it doesn't flood my timeline.

@johnefrancis@cosocial.ca @briankrebs@infosec.exchange ... and created a dummy account that keeps getting messages from recruiters.

@fabio The big issue I can see is that you let in a country like Hungary. Are there ways to manage a member state becoming authoritarian? I've read about article 7 but it doesn't seem to be effective.

@gcluley Well there was this one: https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/the-first-email-scandal-long-before-hillary-clinton-iran-contra/

@evacide@hachyderm.io I have an older Pixel and installed GrapheneOS. Generally for a few bucks I can get a Mint Mobile starter SIM. You plug it in and get a some data, a new phone number, and a few SMS msgs for 7-days. Create a throw away Google account. Create a new Signal account. Rinse and repeat.

@elorti5@mastodon.social @SteveBellovin@infosec.exchange But didn't they help these fascist invade Poland. Didn't the USSR invade Finland earlier and lose badly. So they help set the house on fire and they want to claim they helped put this fire out.

@flyingpenguin@infosec.exchange Reminds me used to live in San Pedro and my dad would point out a Nike site. I believe it used to be a 16" gun emplacement during WW II. It finally dawned on me how my dad knew so much about them. His job for a while was photographing rocket engine tests as part of their development for the Navy.

@toddsundsted@epiktistes.com @dangoodin@infosec.exchange I would argue they not have lowered the cost. I don't believe anyone is really being charged the actual cost of running these LLM beasts. What I want to know is what is the actual cost to run these models. At least tell us how many tokens were burned (or water evaporated) to get these results.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange It just seems that every day I'm unfollowing another YT channel.

@raymaccarthy@mastodon.ie @nixCraft@mastodon.social I remember when someone had used: rm -f -r ..

@evan@cosocial.ca I selected No, But. I'm of a don't talk about it, but you need a good trusted friend who you can just talk too.

@Nonya_Bidniss@infosec.exchange @Nonya_Bidniss@infosec.exchange That really looks like an awkward way to pose. Seems like his wife is holding him up. My wife would have had an arm around me or holding my hand. She would only have her hand like that to steady me.
