  • "Perplexity shits pants and resorts to fediverse ad spamming as profitability and company future in question."

  • What kind of contract do you suppose a company signs with a PR firm when they do business? Do you suppose it stipulates the tone the employees of the firm can take when discussing the client company? Do you suppose it restricts the topics they can discuss or disclose information about? I cannot think of a way that he could avoid a lawsuit if he directly shit talked a former client with insider knowledge of their plans and products.

    It's valid for him to come under scrutiny for running a PR firm as well as being a talking head, but this angle seems fucking goofy.

  • I think that this is a very reasonable point on it's face, but the knife only ever seems to cut one way. Do you have an example of a business that has meaningfully grown due to AI instead of the deluge of layoffs that get printed in articles every day?

    I think people are reacting to what they DO see in real life, and the idea that it COULD result in more jobs... only seems to show up in discussions. I'm obviously not asking for an example the same scale as all the tech companies laying off 100,000s of people and blaming AI, but whatever proof has informed your opinion would go a long way towards supporting your point in a way that debating can't.

  • We have Lemminati at home.

  • You might try looking into brands like scepter that offer dumb TVs, but if you have the money you could also check for retail displays since some still lack cloud management features and can be dumb as well as huge. They advertise with different specs than consumer TVs though so it's sometimes hard to get info around input delay and other things you'll care about.

  • I can't sleep :(

  • Typosquat domain for sure! In a sandbox I'm seeing that all the download links point to the same HTML page on a .ink domain that cloudflare is now refusing to serve.

    But our buddy joe already got a copy for us so we can at least view that report for fun: https://www.joesandbox.com/analysis/1763244/1/html

    Edit: It pulls down an MSI installer or something it runs with msiexec but disguised with a PDF file extension. It seems to want a copy of cmd.exe to exist in an AutoIT installation (SearchPathW vs "C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\cmd.exe") as well as pointing toward the multilanguage (.exe.mui) and other cmd variants. I suspect we're one step away from a real payload with this report and that's what we'd see the "Invoke-Obfuscation" powershell the sandbox spotted used for (if that wasn't a false positive due to the base64 offset string).

  • You deserve your meds, and a treat for taking your meds.

  • If you microdose a breakdown by crying in a closet afterwards you get extra cooldown reduction.

  • I mean if short term GPU supply is the bottleneck it will help that, but if it cooks the GPUs even faster and doesn't result in less overall compute being done it just lets smaller players with less hardware compete with hyperscalers and may not actually be savings in the long term. The unit economics being negative are still the giant elephant in the room preparing to trample them.

  • From their linked study:

    "Filling this utilization gap requires us to better saturate each GPU by enabling it to serve requests from multiple models. As such, we aim to conduct effective GPU pooling. By sharing a GPU between as many models as possible with- out violating the service-level objective (SLO), GPU pooling promises great reductions in operational expenses (OPEX) for concurrent LLM serving."

    The "saturate each gpu" part seems to support your idea.

  • In my opinion the ps5 controller's stupid shell and randomly placed torx screwheads makes it hard to open and work on compared to older controllers, and they use a potentiometer that's cheap and prone to drift. I've cleaned some with isopropyl and youtube guides to good effect but you'll need special screwdrivers to do so if I'm remembering right.

    It's not impossibly hard but mind the plastic bits you can chip off easily if you haven't done it before!

  • This sounds great for social engineering but yeah it's a stretch to say exposed to remote attackers like it's 0click... and I'd imagine detection would be pretty easy if you monitor filewrites to sensitive locations or sensitive file extensions by 7zip.

    POCs are described elsewhere as a pretty standard Get malicious file run through 7zip >>> Directory Traversal by spamming /../ >>> Drop a malicious DLL in System32 >>> Scheduled task to run the payload.

    I bet this will be mostly just for shitting RATs onto machines via social engineering.Though there might be a nastier opportunity if a server is accepting zipped archives and running automated 7zip commandline extraction via script. That could get ugly.
