@TheBat@grue how do you define not working correctly ? ...
the GFX Card bootedthe GFX Card rendered the desktopthe GFX Card rendered Games
... the only issue it wasn't as fast as possible ... solution on windows - you report and get a new driver or you get a new driver cause you don't know that you don't have the max performance solution on linux - you report and get a new driver or you get a new driver cause you don't know that you don't have the max performance
That statement is to easy. It all depends on how much permissions you give the game and in what kind of environment you execute your game. From sandboxing to inmutable root file systems there is a lot possible to exactly prevent this to happen.
IMHO - you wouldn't need to write up such an article if people would think that AI adds an value to their life which is in replacable.
Example:As of now AI is a big toy which you try to justify the use. A google search / fulltext search is much more efficient than using a AI Summary which you should by definition check after anyway.
You try to justify that we spending more electricity on a technology where we already have working solutions and will need those working solutions in the future too.
PS: I personally think the fundamental flaw in your article is that you define something can get replaced which is often not the case or you don't compare it to the current most used solution. Example - Most books aren't printed anymore but only digitally published. The books which are printed needs to be printed as reference and to archive it long term or are printed for book lovers. So you can't say there will be 3000W less because it's not printed anymore.
@michaelmrose@swordgeek I 100% agree that Mozilla is important but it's also clear that currently their is not enough business to keep Mozilla going. I don't blame them for trying to make a Business , i blame them for not following their former values. You can make a business and still mostly follow values ( look for example to GOG ).And what i don't like the most is the change from opt in to opt out. Every new feature most users don't want. You can argue that they know this and make it harder and harder to turn off those new "features" . The last time it was hidden in a sub menu in the settings ( switching off sending data to their ad service ) now it's hidden in about:config.I guess next time you need 3rd party patches and compile the browser yourself to switch a "feature" off.
I think AI is a big Scam ( pattern matching has nothing to do with !!! intelligence !!! ).
And this Scam might end as the Dot-Com bubble in the late 90s ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot-com/_bubble ) including the huge economic impact cause to many people have invested in an "idea" not in an proofen technology.
And as the Dot-Com bubble once the AI bubble has been cleaned up Machine Learning and Vector Databases will stay forever ( maybe some other part of the tech ).
Both don't need copyright changes cause they will never try to be one solution for everything. Like a small model to transform text to speech ... like a small model to translate ... like a full text search using a vector db to index all local documents ...
@Fizz@swelterspark I was raised with IT from basically my 9th birthday. The difference was when i was allowed to use IT it was always in a supervisioned environment till i was 14.
Imho we should make all responsible persons ( parents / teacher / trainer ... ) aware of their responsibility again and help them to fullfill their role.
In the 80's and 90's parents could buy a TV for their kids. If they did so, they totally did understand that it's their task to make sure how much , in what way and when their kids use the TV.
The society could support by giving labels or times for certain content but they would never stop the availability of certain content.Remember the special corners in stores who lend vhs's and dvd's ?
We need to stop over controlling and for sure we need to stop getting lobbied by groups who want to sell their products (business) or want to change the society for their believes (religions).
There was a reason why democracies usually doesn't have both influenced their law making.
@theunknownmuncher i used a kvm not wine. My guess it requieres a certain level of HW Acceleration on the GPU Side to be runable ( the new AI Stuff in RB 7.x ).Fun fact their support wanted me to install a amd gpu driver in my kvm ( i was laughing ) ... after telling them this doesn't make sense i got to some other support unit and they told me this isn't a supported environment and i should keep using RB 6 which basically is getting slower and slower with every release ...
PS: if you got a good link to get RB 7.x to run in WINE ( Proton ) and being able to hand in removable media and such i would not mind to take my time to set this up.
Ok let's give you some more software which still don't work with linux
recordbox serato traktor engine dj
While recordbox 6 still worked in a kvm environment ... recordbox 7 crashes even in this environment.You can to a certain degree avoid maybe serato or traktor and use "engine dj in a kvm" to prepare denon stuff but you always need recordbox for preparing usb sticks too as a dj.
???? the needed certificate are exchanged by for example a matrix / telegram or personal ????
And don't underestimate kids ... Or better asked yourself how did they get porn in the 80s and 90s ??? ( and yes they did )
PS: and honestly imho this hole "protection talk" is totally nonesense or are parent's not anymore capable of protecting their kids? Tell my one reason why a kid 16 should have access to internet without supervision ? An Emergency Call can still be done without internet.
This hole discussion is like if you would had let a Porn VHS in the 80's unlocked in the living room and your kid unsupervised for hours in the living room. Would have someone called in the 80's to audit if your porn has been stored kids savely you would have gone crazy.
PPS: Just because you don't have statistic's how many kids watched adult content in the 80's or 90's doesn't mean it didn't happen !!!
@arc99 you still don't understand end 2 end encryption. Yes man in the middle decryption can be done. First for this to happen you need to accept the certificates of the firewall ( which in terms of a home PC you can't force anyone to do ). Second even if you can decrypt the https packets , you can still put an additional layer on top which only you and the reciever has the keys too.
To give you an example you can easy write down a base64 encoded binary blob in any text field on a website. If this binary blob has been encrypted before noone will be able to tell what is inside.
So breaking https is useless if someone really wants to hide informations. So no your deep packet inspection is totally useless. The only thing you know is that someone did put strange stuff in a text on a website.
I said (picture) your deep inspection falls short to real end 2 end. You said your firewall can break end 2 end ... nope they can't and never will and you exactly said this in your last post too. (Sidenote - i can gpg a text and post it public even with https .. for 99% it will be giberish and only the person who got the right key material will be able to read it ) ... so using deep package inspection to identify something you want to protect kids from is just a lie ...
@arc99 but end 2 end encryption is not by default https traffic ;) ssh / vpn are protocolls ( end 2 end encryption, decryptio) and this firewall can't deep inspect while this protocoll can easy tunnel other tunnels.
@arc99 please inform yourself about end to end encryption and decryption.All i say is you haven't understand what is happening on this firewall and what this firewall can do and what the firewall can't do.
It would also be a interesting question if under GDPR companies need to tell you that they might have shared your emails with Microsoft because they enabled Recall ( if they so do ) ...
@arc99@SpaceCadet thats basically allowing the Government to force the ISP's to build a solution which is able to sensor every content. Sorry there is alot of reasons why you should be against it.
PS: even your deep packet inspection falls short to end 2 end encryption / decryption ...
@Canconda who knows how many people get moved by this topic. Let's say noone believed in 1.4m people signing a petition for game preservation either ... noone would have believed that europeans say that US Tech Companies should be regulated even if it means worse tarrifs ... if you already give up before trying to change something you lost already. From my point of view this creates something which can be used in a really bad way for content moderation ( some would call it censorship ).
@Canconda i don't think that it's currently about the money. this is another fight against liberal ideas. In the last months i have seen bigger companies giving into a certain speech ... or do we want to talk about all those companies even outside of the us who don't talk about DEI anymore ?
@Canconda@ToxicHolyGrenade ;) i think you can google yourself for the special scenes in Dragon Age: Origins , The Witcher , GTA 5 or Leisure Suit Larry ... that are the 3 games out of might head wich had alot of publicity because of this topic. With the same argumentation those groups might try to remove or change those games too ...
Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors
