  • I did some digging and it seems like the family’s suit should actually be against the pub that was renting the in-park space from Disney. It’s just unfortunate that the prevalence of corporate propaganda in news media

    He is suing both Disney and the pub. The pub obviously because they were negligent and Disney because it is in Disney World. It is up to the court to decide how much liability Disney should have vs. the pub, if any.

    I doubt Disney would be able to successfully argue that just because the restaurant is leasing space in Disney World that they have zero liability but that's up to the court.

  • Lynx is still actively maintained. I use it from time to time when I don't feel like leaving the command line to look something up or whatever. It works really well still. So long as all you care about is text.

    If you like to use reader mode you'll probably like Lynx.

  • World population to shrink in 21st century amid birthrate fall: UN

  • The problem is that even if everybody started fucking now, it wouldn't change the fact that many countries including China are on pace to not be able to even maintain their current GDP in the 2030's and other than doing something to replace human labor (bringing people in or automation) to maintain or increase their GDP, there is nothing else they can do. It is too late.

    Everyone is in trouble here but some are worse off than others. Especially when they're going to have to figure out what to do with people that will be aging out of the workforce.

  • RFK Jr disqualified from New York ballot, judge rules

  • Well Vermin Supreme could be on the ballot if that were the case, because he probably wouldn't try to violate the 12 Amendment.

  • He lives in California to be with his wife. His defense is that he is renting a (small) room from a friend in NYC and isn't even on a lease.

    He pays NY taxes because he has a business in NYC. He used his stupid falconry license from NY he had 'issued' in NY from since before he moved to California as part of his defense.

  • Then they'll get out and pay attention to how much the GOP hates funding the VA and veteran programs in general.

    Republicans as a party are generally "Support the troops but fuck the veterans!" just like always. It blows my mind that there are veterans that are also working class that are MAGA because they are getting fucked over twice as much from the very party that they support.

  • His comments are way worse if you read the affidavit. That's just what they chose to publish. He really does threaten her even worse than what the article is directly publishing, not to mention threatening that poor Maricopa county Recorder.

  • Musk's X sues advertisers over alleged 'massive advertiser boycott'.

  • A House Republican lead committee said that the boycott is illegal but also said they don't know if there's really a law against it.

    Also Republicans: Corporations shouldn't be able to choose what platforms to run ads on!

    Company has never profited and there's no plan but share price up? Give C-Suite performance bonuses.

  • There are a couple of OEMs like System76 and Starlabs that sell laptops with Linux on them, provide tech support for customers and so on.

    And no, installing most distros aren't hard. You just click the buttons to proceed and fill out the username and password box, select your time zone and select your wi-fi network if you're using wifi.

    You can do manual partitioning but why would you if you don't know what you're doing?

    Installing software in the GUI is as easy as installing software from the Microsoft Store. Just search or look around and when you see something you want, just click the Install button.

  • They were probably thinking that they'd use the cheapest Windows license (no gp manager) and make more money by putting bloatware on there via deals with other companies.

    I know you know but why are they so short sighted? I just don't think actual consumer experience is at the forefront of priorities. Deadlines and budgets are.

  • Single point of failrule

  • Well it isn't actually a confirmed case. Ruiu, the original person reporting the issue wasn't sure exactly what the surface area of attack was at the start. Ruiu Dragos, who is a security researcher believed it infected via speakers.

    Eventually Errata CEO, Robert Graham, said that if he spent a year, he could build malware that did the same and that it was 'really, really easy'

    Eventually, Ruiu noticed that the initial stage of infection was from one of his USB sticks.

    The speakers part comes in that he found that the packets transmitted between badBIOS infected machines stopped if he disconnected the internal speaker and microphone.

    Meaning, that sure, badBIOS may communicate data with each other via speakers but that it has never been proven that it could actually infect another machine via speakers. However, that hasn't stopped articles from conflating things.

  • OpenAI’s latest model will block the ‘ignore all previous instructions’ loophole

  • You'd change the system prompt, just like now. If you mean in the session, I'm sure it'll ignore your session's prompt's instructions as normal but if not, I guess you'd just start a new session prompt.

  • An angry admin shares the CrowdStrike outage experience

  • Yes, but has it taken both OS' out at the same time? It hasn't but it could happen, however, the chances are even less. There's obvious risk mitigation in mixing vendors in infrastructure for both hardware and software in the enterprise.

    If some critical services were lost in your enterprise last time until RH updated their kernel then you could have benefitted from running that service from Windows as well. Now the reverse is true. You could have another DC via Samba on Linux in your forest if you wanted to, in order to have an AD still for example. Same goes for file share servers, intermediary certificate servers (hopefully your Root CA is not always on the network) and pretty much most critical services.

    Most enterprises run a lot of services off of a hypervisor and have overhead to scale (or they are already in a sinking ship), so you can just spin up VMs to do that. It isn't as if it is unreasonably labor intensive compared to other similar risk mitigation implementations. Any sane CCB (obviously there are edge cases but we are talking in general here) will even let you get away without a vendor support contract for those, since they are just for emergency redundancy and not anywhere near critical unless the critical services have already shit the bed.
