Those silly Russians, always with those zingers! But in seriousness, this seems to be nothing more than theater for the locals. If Russia pursues this claim with any seriousness internationally, they'll get dunked on. Maybe they'll have the ear of diaper donny, but he can't hold a thought for more than 20 minutes.

    Fairphone's mission is about fair resource extraction, longevity and repair-ability. Security is not part of that. GrapheneOS refused to make their OS work on Fairphone, as some hardware security features apparently don't exist on Fairphone. Most Fairphones come with stock Android. That said, there is at least one other OS that is purpose-built for Fairphone. I have not looked into how secure the Fairphone can be made.

    For a week now, I am constantly getting emails from ChatGPT with verification codes for account creation on older email addresses that have been part of data breaches. The emails are sent by tm.openai.com, so they seem to be legit. My question is why would anyone try to create a ChatGPT account using my email addresses? The email accounts all have strong passwords and are secured with 2FA. So I'm fairly sure they aren't getting those emails with those temporary login codes. So what is the point of this?

     

    For me at least, for months now, this instance is unavailable for multiple hours a day. Given the recent posts about the lemmy eco system being on a slight downwards trend, I don't think this additional load is caused by more users using this instance. Rather, I think that AI scrapers are using this instance to scrape lemmy. If I am correct, though only someone with access to the logs can check, I'd like to kindly ask for some sort of protection from AI scrapers. Both because I like being able to actually browse the instance and because I hate AI companies.

     

    I got banned from the europe.ml community, shocker, I know, for being an absolutely vile human being. Let's see what got removed.

    OK, well, maybe not so vile, but that Rule 2 must be a really hard-hitting one to justify the ban.

    Wait, the rule doesn't even mention banning someone? And the comment isn't even an article? I guess the mod got his feefees hurt, because I dared to disagree with the original post of the thread. So everything's the same over on .ml.

     

    With the news of Charlie Kirk's passing, many conservatives are asking for sympathy, less violence and praise Charlie as someone who was open to having his ideas challenged and interested in honest debates. This is a throwback to what Charlie Kirk had to say when Pelosi was attacked.

    I am sure to upset a lot of purists with this, but as a hobby "sysadmin" of my own linux server at home, an AI built into the shell would do wonders to me.

    I found bash-ai, but that seems to me like little more than a wrapper for ChatGPT queries.

    In an ideal scenario, I'd like to employ a pre-trained, locally run AI that has access to all files, including config files and the list of installed packages, so it can, for example, tell me what specific lines in config files do or if a package I have already installed is good for a task I want to do or what the merge conflict between configs during an upgrade is about.

    Is there such a built-in AI?
