They became the victim.

Still not as much as it costs to buy one of those laptops, so I doubt this will get much attention unless someone is generous.

Electric cars with apps?

self driving car models, data/analytics for model improvement, trained data from your unique path?

In-car infotainment systems with full movies and tv shows downloaded for road trips for the kiddies in the back seat? (spinning hard drives don’t like vibrations)

2TB today is the 2GB of yesterday (well ok, 2GB of almost 30 years ago) but it’s not just capacity, it’s performance and serviceability for dealerships.

Being able to swap out memory modules or the controller might make end user repairs easier without totally losing all data, but realistically this sort of thing goes contrary to all actions taken by major manufacturers in the past decade.

Everybody is soldering memory directly onto motherboards because it’s faster, cheaper (less supply chain) and forces people to buy entirely new systems for an upgrade. Storage has also been done many times especially with apple. Repairs often have to go back to a repair shop owned by the manufacturers so they do the lion’s share of repairs and capture profit there as well because you can’t just buy individual components and swap them out due to proprietary code and tooling with software locks.

Samsung is the only one doing this so far, so as-is it’s just proprietary crap that might force you into an upgrade path with compatible parts only available from them, which is perhaps the goal. Sell you a basic chip with low density and low performing controllers and charge you to upgrade over and over, rather than stick with the component you have or buy a whole new one from a competitor.

What’s next, overturning the 13th amendment?

People go to walmart for groceries because they’re cheaper than a lot of the other options.

Up here around Boston your cheap choices are literally Market Basket or Walmart. Everything else is substantially more expensive. Wholefoods might have a cute nickname of whole paycheck, but stop and shop, shaws, trader joe’s and others are not really cheaper nowadays and the quality of all of them has gone downhill.

Market Basket is currently undergoing a leadership battle where the guy who has been keeping prices low and employees’ well compensated is being pushed out. If they go the way of everybody else… walmart is substantially cheaper.

To that end, how do you suggest people with very tight budgets that use snap benefits afford groceries? Are you expecting everyone to rely on food banks exclusively? They literally do not have all kinds of things in my area, or at least didn’t when I was young and my parents had to rely on it. I don’t have SNAP and have never had it because i’m fortunate, but it’s not about me. It’s about the people who need it.

Why are we building walls? why aren’t we building bridges?

The crooks in control today are built on a house of cards. One elderly figurehead won’t last long. The current media organizations are controlled by a bunch of billionaires pushing propaganda to keep the crooks in that are letting them earn a shitload of money while taxes are low before they lose their grasp on power.

Pitting nations against each other is just another political tool. We’re fighting when we should be planning together to build a strategy to fix the problems and putting it into action.

Silos create exactly what we have today. Xenophobia is not the answer.

The idea that forcing a signup (building a web of information about a user through the use of cookies and other browser metadata) to protect against AI (that is gonna use tooling, mirrors, proxies and any number of fully working methodologies) is ludicrous.

They just want to track who you are, what you do, and then sell that data which should never have been gathered in the first place as part of their advertising revenue.

Honestly if I was 3-7 years from retirement and I had a choice between a somewhat comfortable prison or going to some shit job because no one will hire me as a felon…

Really depends what their priorities are at that point. Who is left in their life who still cares about them, knowing they were murdering people left and right.

I’m guessing they’ll get out after 16 years and find some way to not work, if they get out.

Usually, there’s a network for IP cameras, with a central server holding the video. There’s then, usually, a firewall to anything outside that, and frequently just a hardline to a monitoring system. (another computer with lots of monitors, typically.)

I hate to say it man, but this assumes someone is going above and beyond to lock down the cameras.

I used to have a milestone implementation where I work. There was a security PC in a security office that has the cameras on and always logged in but nobody shuts down requests for camera access for other users. The flimsiest of justification is all that is necessary for the highest level of leadership to give the go ahead. We do manufacturing and everyone thinks these low quality grainy security cameras are a replacement to going on the floor and actually watching how things are working so dozens of non-security people had access.

When I started everybody was using the same local account to log in. I migrated us to AD authentication (with exception of the security PC) but anybody could still technically reach the camera system from the network.

Absolutely anybody could just enter the IP of a camera on the network though and view what it sees. Every camera had default passwords. We even had some fun brands like Hikvision that were banned in 2022 by the FCC. We had a firewall from the outside world, but a guest network that was not isolated at all.

We’ve migrated to a different solution that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and over a year of replacing cameras, but still probably a third of people in the org have access to the cameras for bullshit reasons and leadership doesn’t care to shut it down. Thankfully none of them are admins and nobody but myself and a couple of others have any kind of admin level permissions now, but my point is that it’s the wild west out there in terms of IT processes… and often Shadow IT from groups like a security team that isn’t truly tech-savvy ends up running something like this.

If money didn’t flow like water due to a total lack of purchasing controls and nobody complaining about expenditure at the time, we’d still be using the same old security cameras. I can’t imagine the Lourve having much of a budget. museums are run like shitty nonprofits and are held together with string and bubblegum in the US.

It’s Germany, not Louisiana. The logic checks out. They won’t have to work ever again.

So you’re saying reddit is like the news, and that outrage is what makes social media most popular/engaging.

How do you fix the problem of sociopaths hoarding wealth and power/control? Because that seems like the underlying problem to me. A platform is only as bad as the people running it.

So this is here to stay and there’s absolutely no way to stop it from happening. There’s absolutely no way to trace this back to it’s source every time. There’s absolutely no way to prevent anybody from taking a photo from absolutely anywhere as source material to then manipulate it. You won’t fix this by banning AI or whatever term is used for whatever enables this as you can’t stop someone from running software.

It’s not even a new thing, it’s just becoming easier and more accessible and more lifelike. The nature of technology means it will eventually be perfected and widespread. Hollywood has already been using body doubles and computer graphics to allow actresses to not show their actual nude bodies in nude scenes for years.

What you can do without destroying all anonymity and privacy for everyone is find who uploaded or shared something with the goal of harassing someone. This is the means allowing for a detection mechanism to then remediation of said harassment. That’s the real crime right, harassment? Shouldn’t there already be laws and enforcement for harassment?

The root of this problem is simple. The desire to have sex with people, to see them naked, and to otherwise get off is not something that will ever go away for humanity, because it’s ingrained in our nature to procreate. You can’t fix this by brainwashing/training/whatever bullshit psychological solution that is often peddled as a silver bullet for invented problems either.

You can however change the law in your country so that standing menacingly behind a woman is considered harassment and punish them accordingly. If this was done by one or a group of guys in Boston and there were others around, odds are they would experience a lot of pain.

Remember when lotus notes was good?

The more shit you tack onto something the worse it gets.

My magic 8 ball says they’ll release an oled refresh to up the price $50-100 and not much else before switch 3, which is still many years away for either to happen.

As-is the thing has sold a ton despite no new games existing really.

Sounds like you need a magnet that says “unless it’s locked with a green clean light, it’s dirty” or something

I’ve never been a supporter of the guy but my hat’s off for the kid in a gundam outfit holding some gunpla.

The photo itself is entirely innocuous, just a dude with his two sons on halloween.

You can’t see it because this is a photo from a book that was released back in like 2013 with a ton of various images that more better utilized the colors.

Example:

OP’s image must have been stolen and reuploaded again and again and again to get us where we are today.

“steadily” as in… they complete one every couple of years? How long until they’re done? 10-20-30 years? They started this in 2014 and 11 years later they’ve accomplished next to nothing beyond creating a pile of bodies.

If germany took this long to take poland it probably wouldn’t have been world war at all.

Russia can’t even beat ukraine.
