It's not a dark personality to misinterpret things. It's just a poor grasp of the finer aspects of communication.
For instance, Kathy Griffin made a controversial video holding a bloodied severed head of Trump, who was the US president at the time. That rightfully received a lot of backlash for being in poor taste. Making death threats against the president of the United States in a serious crime, however she was not arrested because it was correctly not seen as a threat by the law enforcement.
Russia loves people like you who are doing their divide-and-conquer work for them.
Most of the right wing is in support of Ukraine. And every case of the government officials opposing more help for Ukraine I've seen was on financial grounds, not because they support Russia.
Support of Ukraine is one of the most bipartisan political position in the nation.
An uptick after these changes make sense. People want to continue their comfortable routines. However now that it's draining their wallet, they will probably be on the lookout for cheap/free alternatives.
It's the same with increasing prices. Short term your revenue will spike, but it will bleed as you slowly lose customers because you offer less value.
But the people who were previously paying is where Netflix is playing with fire. They released the customers who were paying only because they were sharing it and didnt want to cause an inconvenience.
I think it's a pretty big gamble by Netflix, it will take time to see how it played out.
When is the last time any of the big tech companies got hit with antitrust? Microsoft is brazenly doing shit on windows they wouldn't even dream of in early 2000s. Resetting user defaults to their products. Constantly advertising their products when user launches a competitors software.
They don't give a fuck and neither do the governments.
Users often depend on websites trusting the client environment they run in. This trust may assume that the client environment is honest about certain aspects of itself, keeps user data and intellectual property secure, and is transparent about whether or not a human is using it. This trust is the backbone of the open internet, critical for the safety of user data and for the sustainability of the website’s business.
Jesus christ just the introduction paragraph is a load of horseshit. Actually bold faced lies. Users depend on websites trusting the client? In what fucking world are websites trusting the client??? Literally the only case is the media DRM that should have never been part of the web in the first place.
There is this misconception of "using a lot of ram = bad", but memory is not like cpu or gpu cycles.
Unused memory is wasted memory. Chrome will use available memory to improve responsiveness. Primarily the memory use comes from keeping all open tabs in memory, so they are in the same state as you left them.
When the system runs low on ram, chrome will start discarding old tabs and giving back memory to other processes. Firefox does the same thing.
Also windows task manager is very inconsistent when it comes to memory usage. Right now it's telling me chromium is using 1.4gb for 47 tabs. And memory usage is a lot more complicated anyway.
Under Standard Data Protection photos, general drive storage and device back up are not end-to-end encrypted. Meaning that Apple has full access to reading and analyzing them.
Under Advanced Data Protection which is an opt-in feature available since iOS 16.2, you can have those files end-to-end encrypted.
End-to-end encryption makes the user responsible for keeping an encryption key safe, irreversibly losing their data if they lose the key. It's not practical for the general population. I would guess its use is in low single digit percent of apple customers.
And this feature came out in December 2022. A bit over half a year ago. Unless your friend's NDA was super short, I presume the conversation took place before it was released. Either your friend was bullshitting you under an NDA or he's an idiot.
"AI" is already handling the search for you. The big search engines are probably the first mass scale adopters of machine learning.
And they have lost the war with SEO spam to a hilarious extent. What makes you think the same won't happen with chat bot AIs? Bad actors (including PR agencies) will inevitably figure out where and how to spam comments in order to bias the AI models in favor of their agendas or products.
If the data they consume is filled with something like "fossil fuels don't cause global warming because XYZ", the chat bots will repeat it. They don't have the capacity to reason.
There hasn't been a reason to flood the internet with low effort spam because it's easily detected by humans who read it. But the ML algorithms will be a lot easier to trick.
They can't. Not without removing the part that makes reddit worthwhile, which are small dedicated communities.
Sure, an AI can moderate shit like /pics /politics /funny /gaming. Those are basically just garbage article/repost feeds anyway.
Can an AI moderate say... buildapcsales? Where you need a human moderator to verify if the deal is valid, add additional info to the flair and mark deals as expired? Technically yes, but it would require a specially trained AI, that knows how to scrape particular websites and avoid detection, which is not a great look for reddit and is also a ton of work.
What about a TV show subreddit? There has been instances where episodes were leaked, and the moderators had to protect the community from spoilers. Can an AI do it? Again, if it's manually trained on this new data it could. But are reddit employees going to illegally download leaked episodes to feed the to the algorithm?
At that point, you'd be spending more time and money on babysitting each AI than if you just moderated manually.
I just go to the Apple Store website, max out the specs
I just did that and it ended up being $6499 USD. Idk about you, but that's a bit steep for a laptop to my taste. Id rather buy a $2000 laptop and if it breaks I can literally buy another one while still spending less, or just use the warranty.
