Not really. You're not at much risk of harming yourself with the tools, and if an attacker is already on your system able to execute arbitrary software, you're already pretty well pwned
Which isn't to say it doesn't present any risk, just that it's relatively negligible in a personal computing environment. In a corporate environment, you'd need strict controls on who can use those tools and when
I used it as a daily driver for the last couple years on one of my laptops
I like Debian and work in cybersecurity. I'd have to install all these tools anyway, so it made sense. Turns out OffSec doesn't bother testing persistent installs. The stability as absolutely atrocious. I run into so many issues because they change things like the audio manager and I end up with both trying to run in parallel
Most people still say you're not supposed to use it because of security issues. Those aren't a concern these days. Lack of upgrade stability is the real reason not to have a persistent install, especially on bare metal
If I could live on the salary, I would prefer a manual labor job.
Wouldn't your anecdote then be supporting the premise?
That means you're doing your current job out of economic necessity. The fact you make more with your current role means free market proponents have deemed it more necessary, so have you not been economically coerced into taking a job you otherwise wouldn't?
I don't think people should be coerced into work they otherwise wouldn't do, but there is some level of truth to it. If nothing else the wealthy and powerful want us to be mostly effective workers, so they can have more wealth to siphon off
This is a great lifehack to get a mega-corp landlord
As an added benefit, they'll squeeze you for every extra penny they can, which is great if you're into financial domination. Best part is that you will be helping support extreme wealth inequality
Or at least I assume those are the reasons. IDK, I support small landlords over mega-corporations
There is a surprising amount of research I can use as an excuse to do stupid dives. Tons of scientific research that happens in cave diving, since you've got almost pristine aquatic environments that have lasted tens of thousands of years
Had to look up the place. Looks like the temperature gets a bit over 100F (38C) in some places. Acidity isn't an issue for the diver, although it could be damaging to their gear. Search results suggest this picture was taken at ~160 feet, which is a reasonable dive for any technical diver
I've done a similar dive profile in Yellowstone looking at hydrothermal vents. It's a reasonable dive for any experienced and qualified diver. I'm guessing they didn't have a technical diver, with equipment, on hand. It was likely much easier to drop a camera and bait
How many consumers have brand loyalty for harddrives? To me, they're effectively a commodity. I'll go with the one that has the best benchmark results for the size and price
I'd bet on more submarines in the universe. Trillions upon trillions of galaxies in the universe, each having billions of stars. At least a few are going to have submarines to add to the count
In the short-term, it isn't. Long-term, I think it's much better
It will force AI companies to find ways to combat bad data and intentional poisoning efforts. I'd much rather anti-AI activists be the ones abusing AI than for it to be a Russian, Chinese, or American APT
The second effect is that it would make more people aware of how often AI is wrong. Way too many people blindly accept AI results
Also, you can always poison AI to fit your own world view. Teach it that the Epstein files should be thoroughly investigated, with perpetrators prosecuted, or something
