This can’t be real?

First of all it’s almost certainly torture and human rights violations.

Secondly, never mind freedom of speech - now you can’t even have your thoughts to yourself.

Fuck. That.

All I want to know is what do these Temu people think my life is like?

Do you know if there people who have gone this far analysing the TikTok and WeChat apps?

Unfortunately they care more about spying on us themselves.

They can meet up with the Cameroonian and Iraqi olympic teams for lunch.

If it’s a public repo do they need permission?

Not saying this is good, but you can’t really argue that it’s not a natural consequence of open source.

@maxinstuff@lemmy.world avatar

I get what your saying, in that open source projects normally have a licence that applies to how it’s used - but this has always been open to abuse.

Nothing has ever stopped things like this happening - see how industry has taken advantage of open source for decades (often productising things as their own in the process).

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returns to Australia a free man after US legal battle ends ( apnews.com )

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returned to his homeland Australia aboard a charter jet on Wednesday, hours after pleading guilty to obtaining and publishing U.S. military secrets in a deal with Justice Department prosecutors that concludes a drawn-out legal saga....

Will be interesting to see how this plays out - really feels like it’s been in a holding pattern for 5+ years.

As in, will the USA be still after him? What role will he play in the public sphere now that he is free?

Etc.

Lots of tech people who don't know or care about the r1 device are going to get a jumpscare from this post 😁

RabbitMQ is used internally by a lot of applications and is often referred to colloquially as just “Rabbit”.

They’ll just put surgeon general’s warnings on public schools.

OneDrive automatically backups folders in Windows 11 without users' permissions ( windowsreport.com )

According to the latest reports, Windows 11 has made an independent choice by automatically turning on OneDrive folder backup for Desktop, Pictures, Documents, Music, and Video folders without your permission. This signifies that, whether you approve or not, everything is becoming coordinated with the cloud....

Yes, install Linux and the end up using O365 in the cloud anyways 🤡

The same critical thinking should apply as all other platforms.

A link posted to an article on a company's public blog published in the last 24hrs? Almost certainly viral marketing.

For years this demographic crisis has been coming (it was taught in schools in my country over 20 years ago!), yet we still harp on about overpopulation.

Population collapse is coming if this doesn’t change.

Seconding this. Why not allow people to run llama3 or other open source models?

Why does my open source browser need proprietary SaaS products stuffed into it?

Isn't this what extensions are for?

Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough ( www.xda-developers.com )

There were a number of exciting announcements from Apple at WWDC 2024, from macOS Sequoia to Apple Intelligence. However, a subtle addition to Xcode 16 — the development environment for Apple platforms, like iOS and macOS — is a feature called Predictive Code Completion. Unfortunately, if you bought into Apple's claim that...

Oh man, I remember so many people defended 8GB since the M1 first came out (and since).

I always argued it would significantly reduce the lifetimes of these machines if you bought one, not just because you’d be swapping a lot more on the (soldered in BTW) ssd, but because after a few years of updates it would become unbearably slow, or hardware would fail, or both.

Didn’t stop people constantly “tHe aRchITecTuRE iS cOmPlETelY diFFeRenT!!!”

Sure it’s different, but it’s still just a computer. A technical person can still look at the spec sheet and calculate effective performance accounting for bus widths etc.

Disclosure: I bought a top spec 16GB M1 Mac Air on launch and have been extremely happy with it - it’s still going strong.

The real problem is robots.txt is an honour system in the first place - It's never been a defence against bad (or even simply poor faith) actors.
