    I get loads of them when I'm on a Netsweeper filtered network... pretty much any time any asset a page loads is from a blocked site (social media pixels normally).

    On the new Windows 365 Link thin client I think it is, not sure about normal builds of Windows though? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAKg-Z6m8nM - 6:50

    I'd hazard a guess that it's based on what the LLM can "design" without actually being able to see it or have taste and it still reliably look fine to humans.

    Are you sure the kids aren't learning to delete the messages?

    Works until someone can afford a better and more expensive AI tool, or can afford to pay a knowledgeable human to help them answer.

    When you have a simple tool you have written for yourself, that you need to be reliable and accessible but also that you don't use frequently enough that it's worth the bother of r…

    To add to this, if you use Zoho's free plan this can cost you literally nothing.

    Has someone got a guide they can link that is easy enough to understand for service administrators that aren't doing anything complicated? Also, can I request these risk assessment…

    By the sounds of it, if there was a painless way of doing it, he would probably be fine with this. If he consented when he was alive, I don't see how it could be moral to ignore hi…

    There's not even a privacy notice on the website, is that legal?

    Is there some document somewhere that lists all the potential ways of doing stuff like this?

    AIs don't behave. They are a lot of fancy maths . Their creators can behave in ethical or moral ways though when they create these models. = not to say that the people that work on…

    I know the law is often behind the trend because of the rate tech develops, but surely the old analogy for all technology is postal mail. Last time I checked, the postal service ha…

    I doubt the cert issue is on your end, it appears whenever OpenDNS (Cisco Umbrella) tries to intercept any site when it blocks it.

    Someone more experienced that me could probably comment on this more, but theoretically is it possible for Electron production builds to become more efficient by having a much long…

    Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I've got a semi-obscure DNS question. I'd like to use Cloudflare's Zero Trust DNS filtering with DoH by running a DNS proxy on my ne…

    Isn't a TV that permanently shows HDMI input a big monitor? Weirdly they always seem to be more expensive than a TV though.

    Have you looked at some of the alternative firmwares for older Numworks models?

    Not a mac user, but is there really not a bootable USB at the very least that you can use for this rather than needing another Mac?

    The linked software only blocks 18+ content, and I think it's reasonable for parents to monitor if their child accesses that kind of content??

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought Japanese culture valued the elderly a lot more than in the west, and therefore stuff like this would be funded by the government?

    You aren't wrong, but if you use Cloudflare Pages with a static site the only job you have to do for a static site is make sure your Cloudflare account is secure with 2fa etc. Clou…
