DMARC is simple in theory but quite tricky in practice (with subdomains, for example). You follow the guide for a service (say Mailgun, for example) and everything looks fine, but …

[Fairly off-topic and political] There's a growing (retarded) perspective, not only here in Romania but in most of the EU, that we must digitalize at all costs; this itself is obvi…

If you post pictures of yourself on X and don't want grok to "bikini you", block grok. Yes, under the TOS, what grok is doing is not the "fault" of grok(the reason is the causal fa…

I disagree in principle, but let's say the people decide to do so. Not only in US (under section 230) those are not media companies, but in EU too, social networks like Facebook/In…

Everybody knows about Cambridge Analytica being used in the US/UK, but, for example, little to no one knows that Cambridge Analytica was also used by political parties within the E…

In the last electoral cycle I've seen firsthand censorship applied to remote acquaintances because of the newly added EU DSA (this in and of itself would not be a huge disaster [by…

Thank you for the detailed insight. You've touched on an aspect that outsiders (like me) cannot truly grasp but can only guess about: motivation. And it's definitely true, motivati…

Please convince me how gov. funding is better than the private sector. Before people jump to the "late capitalism and everything will be profit-incentivized" bandwagon, I fail to s…

(If you're OP: this is not a solution per se but more of a generalist rant; just so you don't waste critical time) People talk about changing laws or technical solutions, but the i…

I'm more impressed by the fact that there's still DDR2 going around. I know DDR3 is still alive and well, even manufactured(I myself noticed the appearance of new DDR3 kits, which …

AI & Social Media are only exacerbating the decline of morality in society, spreading it and making it more visible. Morality has been "breaking", objectively speaking, for at leas…

Firstly, EU =/= Europe. Secondly: the death of EU cannot come soon enough. 10 years ago euroskeptics like me were wrongfully called "russophiles" (lmao), even though I'm from a cou…

I'm not sure that focusing on this mudslinging towards OpenAI (or any other company, for that matter) will achieve anything. It didn't work in the past and it won't work in the fut…

(Imo) They will turn to all of these(especially to porn and gambling) when the core model of "enhance your life" will slowly fade away. The "academia space", the teens/boomers demo…

(replying instead of editing for timestamp purposes) I clicked "enroll" randomly again > an "error has occurred" message appeared > the page randomly refreshed and everything works…

Same here on 2 accounts, both having 2fa through a HW key(yubikey; though passkeys have the same behavior). At some point today(few hours ago) both my desktop and phone got reditec…

I've watched the doctored video myself. The CEO resigning is "nothing" compared to the accountability they should be held to for propaganda they constantly push, and specifically t…

"Climate change deniers" Like holocaust deniers, like nazis, etc.? More and more buzz-words and labels broadly and freely used in order to dilute their respective meanings. Our par…

I expect this "red meat inherently bad" paper to be rebuked faster than the previous one, which lasted quite a while. Of course even retracted if there are still people with integr…

The framing makes it sound like it's a "bug" or something. From my understanding it's not, because it's hardly a reliable reasoning tool: whether using statements or using data. Un…

The most interesting snippet from the article: > Early Friday, Musk said that xAI would release its first AI system — presumably Grok — to a “select group” on Saturday, November 4.…

Wasn't aware tooling for whisper came out. Whishper looks neat, definitely better than what i'm using now( whisper locally/collab and then editing with SubtitleEdit/gaupol). Thanks…

I feel the opposite is true. You're right about this, if we were to resume the internet to the arab world/middle eastern world/etc. But the internet de facto is a global medium of …

I'm assuming they're gonna work on ROCm(or maybe a new attempt by AMD?). Anyways good luck to them, we desperately need some competition to CUDA. AMD's hardware is definitely poten…

Objectively speaking of course, NPR* has been trending downwards on almost every metric since 2019-2020, funnily enough except the income metric.[1] Also the objective data from st…
