Should still be doing phased rollouts of any patches, and where possible, implementing them on pre-prod first.

Wasn’t even aware it was still a thing, apart from on mobile (where it somewhat makes sense-ish)

The inquiry has already shown their method of data collection was flawed, the core systems had critical bugs compromising data integrity, and the processes for data validation were non-existant. Every time they audited a post master they were always basing it off the horizon reports.

As far as I’m aware, they can’t even advise what happens to all the money they forced the post masters to “pay back”.

They seems to have a shitty culture of treating the post masters like criminals unless proven innocent, and still believe they’re the victims of their own flawed software.

There’s only 1,336 operational solar farms as of Sep 2024… So would be marginal at best. Certainly generating a lot less CO2 than if the land was developed into anything else.

I don’t get why twitter wouldn’t just comply & implement measures the moment it knew it’s platform was being used to distribute CSAM.

It’s as though, maybe, brexit shouldn’t have been a thing?

I couldn’t care less

“I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.”

Ita also trivial to come to the same conclusion at a smaller scale.

You can run a LLM at home and see the amount of GPU & power resources it takes to compute the larger models. If I ran that full time, your household bill will most likely be 3x alone.

Same stance the UK Post Office took with Horizon. A fucking stupid stance…

This an American thing? This is exactly what happens in the UK.

The key differences is utilities you’re paying for the generation & maintenance of key resources - without gas, water and electricity we wouldn’t be able to survive. Road tax you’re helping to pay for the renewal and upkeep of the road surface (among other local services)… Left alone the road will degrade & will become unusable.

Suspension as a Service is milking what should be a perpetual cost when purchasing the vehicle. If the hardware is already installed, it should be available for the owner to use. They’re not paying for the upkeep of the vehicle, or even ensuring the suspension remains functional… All they’ve done is placed the function behind a pay wall. They can argue they’re maintaining the software, but it’s utter bullshit and I hate the fact this has become a norm within B2B (for example network appliances)

At least with luxury subscriptions such as Spotify, Netflix, NYT, etc you’re getting access to their content, which they renew. Here you get access to something you should have had access to from day 1.

It wouldn’t stop against volumetric attacks…

They’d still fully consume the WAN bearer regardless of Crowdsec protecting the endpoint. For that you need a scrubbing centre to dump the traffic onto.

Screenshot fails to show the video attempting to load every 30 seconds. But it then turns out to be an advert.

Users get the same feeling they get whilst waiting for an agent, and the hold music gets interrupted with “your call is important to us…”

Why? Its hardware is dog shit.

It’s targeted to bring the issue to the forefront of people’s minds before they vote.

They’re not trying to negotiate with the current government, they’re trying to gain support from the people voting the next government in, hoping they’d vote for a party sympathetic to their cause.

Like most of my work’s processes… Shit goes in, shit comes out…

Using a password manager would avoid this. Everyone should ideally use unique passwords per service, that way a single account can’t compromise the others.

The loss of personal data however is fricking annoying. If a company has no legitimate reason, I avoid signing up to them.

Looking at you Nvidia, Razar, etc…

Whilst I agree in the spirit of the petition, the wording isn’t great.

Server infrastructure has significant opex costs to run & maintain - it’s impractical to demand publishers to keep them alive, especially if the running cost far exceeds the player demand & potential revenues. What happens if that publisher goes bust? What happens if a significant security vulnerability is found?

Might be better to have legislation for software publishers (not just games) to both plan & implement a sunsetting strategies when they intend to retire software.

Eg. If the online component was just performing license checks, make software publishers remove the DRM. If it’s to host a DLC store, release all DLC items for free & remove the store. If its for multi-player mechanics, release both the client & server software as limited open-source license so the community can maintain those assets going forward.

And a rate limit
