I got Linux, but like I have some OSs that rely on ancient shit I can’t get my addicted ass off of

Also showing lawmakers how easy it is means even more laws down the pipeline to really make development disgusting because “it worked before, right?”

I’ve had a Win 7 running for 12 years as a media server, never once been hacked.

ISPs and even old school Win 7 to Win 10 OSs have the old ports blocked by default that prevent “drive-by malware”.

What you are talking about is the equivalent of a Boogeyman that only exists because people are stupid about what they open up or install or allow to control their firewalls. Your points even prove that.

You can open a Netscape browser on Windows 95 and not get hacked. But of course you believe opening a browser opens you wide up so just ignore what I say.

As long as you are not blasting away on random sites downloading every link you see then you are pretty safe. The old days of a hacker getting into your PC because you forgot to update your firewall are kind of gone.

I’m banking on the world ending before then. Or I get an incurable cancer. Either way, fuck Microsoft.

I’m not taking all the credit but I do hope those people who didn’t believe me in the past could rightfully take this comment, print it, pull down their pants and shove it up their ass.

It’s time to hold journalism with a higher standard and this idea that “well they do alright” and “it was only once” is bullshit sliding into madness.

Just the facts, folks.

Gonna be fun times in courts as anyone can claim something was generated by AI even if an artist claims they created it.

I wonder if this will end up limited to art or can be expanded to other copyrighted works.

Wow California leading the way to fascism, who woulda thunk?

Trump Admin: “Do illegal shit for us”

Anthropic: “Our lawyers are smarter than yours and we know we will win in court. Nice try dumbass.”

Basically every single one of those Xfinity Wifi boxes that people got for free in their household thanks to Concast and their skeezy attempt to bolster their “mobile” network.

Valve has had crates and keys for over a decade… They sue them now? I’m sure discovery will have some interesting findings.

Hardaker is the operator of Mountain Weekly News, and he regularly used to contribute to three or four subreddits

So I am going to stop right there and ignore any conceivably ingenious reply you may come up with to justify and spin what the dude is actually doing. Spend enough time on Reddit like the grownups around here and you’ll eventually understand.

So let me get this straight. Some jerk off looking to advertise his site by spamming links on several subs was hoping to AstroTurf COUGH I mean organically post… And Reddit Ad Team saw that and figured they could milk him for some dollars? So this doucher takes to Xhitter to try to get sympathy?

Ahh capitalism at its finest.

I could’ve sworn 2 weeks ago there was an article about people breaking into them to steal the wires and components.

I remember working with an old dude 10 years ago who pointed at the CPU in a computer and said “the government can turn that off whenever they want”. He died of COVID so take his quote with what value you want.

Remember 18 months ago when all programmers and software engineers were going to be replaced… Still waiting…

Users on those centralized platforms got exactly what they deserved. The writing on the wall was yelled at them for years and still ignored.

I pointed out a month ago that Ars Technica is a rot site and starting to be filled with AI regurgitated bullshit and got 80+ down votes and a few uneducated replies.

Y’all feel better now?

There’s probably a good analogy out there about addiction but I saw something flashy on my smartphone and got distracted.

Because most Americans with slack jaws hunch over their smartphone gawking at tiktok videos of people they hope to one day be but never will.
