    Every time I hear about an agent escaping it's sandbox, I just think it must not have been much of a sandbox. Like how hard are they really trying to contain it? Is it just a conta…

    Is this a dig at IPv6?

    I bought one of their travel routers to play with and even though it's OpenWRT based, I consider it Chinese firmware because they add their own stuff on top of it. The fact that it…

    The tool that they use to transport it to the lab is pretty slick. https://wamatek.com/products/cru-hotplug-field-kit-110v

    Think I may have to give USBKill and BusKill a try.

    Anecdotally, it seems to me that most Europeans aren't as consumed by their dopamine delivery devices in day to day activities as most Americans are.

    My favorite way to do it is in the auto parts store parking lot. They will help you cart your full drain pan back to their oil recycling receptacle and some will even prop the back…

    I use !s for my fallback. I usually don't need the !g unless I want to see CAPTCHAS.

    What's the running rumor right now of which AI was involved? I heard Claude awhile back, but this makes me wonder how much Redhat could have been involved?

    How long until this gets to the point that we can play Doom over LLM conversations?

    Will they let me send my laptop if I'm a North Korean remote worker?

    I have come across that one, but not having the "trusted" badge in the extension store has usually been a hard pass for me. I might reconsider.

    I really like the "Always Open Site in Container" along with "Limit to Designated Sites" once it's set up, but I wish there was a way to make it accept wildcards otherwise I have t…
