Put a teaspoon of salt in a glass of water and it is so salty you can barely sip it without gagging. Put a teaspoon of sugar in a glass of water and it is mildly sweet.

How could this possibly be better than Netflix’s recommendation engine or even just asking chatgpt?

Ok I see a lot if discussion on this topic but no one seems to have mentioned the main feature of the spec that makes them phishing resistant: presence detection. This is what makes FIDO resistant to credential replay. The spec is not perfect but it prevents most common phishing attacks.

TP Link is just as bad at security as most other consumer electronics vendors:

There is definitely a bubble. But also what Nvidia is doing is smart. They have boatloads of cash. They are investing that cash in the companies that are using their products to create money making services. If one of them can create a killer app or viable service this will create demand for their products and they will have an ownership stake in it. Is this guaranteed or even likely? Probably not. We have reached the point where we were in 1996 where the chairman of the fed came out and said we are in a period of “irrational exuberance.” That bubble took four more years to pop. This one may end quicker, but it is impossible to tell when it will end or what will come out of it from where we sit today.

The relevant bits:

Pieter Arntz, a malware intelligence researcher at Malwarebytes, has issued a timely July 16 reminder that “scammers are impersonating Amazon in a Prime membership scam.”

The cause of Arntz’s reminder, and the underlying Amazon warning to all 220 million Prime customers, however, was a spike in email attacks claiming that subscription rates are about to rise, along with a cancel subscription button that would lead to Prime account credential theft.

Rock horns. Shorthand for “that rocks” a more manly way to say I love that.

Thats great! I feel comfortable using the heart emoji with my wife and kids, but for co-workers it can be a little creepy depending in the circumstance. I started using the blue heart, but that just caused confusion. I found the horns conveyed the thought better without being creepy.

So you’re saying the ad driven internet will die? And we will be left with what? Wikipedia and Lemmy? I for one welcome our AI overlords!

Sounds like screentime.

The weird thing about clothes is that we don’t think they are weird.

Especially if you are Tat.

You can tunnel over SSL with stunnel. TCP latency can be brutal though.

He has some really good, in-depth youtube explainer videos on LLMs. That said this bit on Apple Intelligence does not seem to reflect what people are experiencing.

I love Lemmy and Voyager and the Fediverse. That said, if it were to become mainstream I forsee some problems. The fact that the login relies on only passwords is pretty terrible. Also, this makes the service vulnerable to bots, sock puppet accounts, brigading, etc.
