Critics of Putin and his allies targeted inside the EU with Israeli-made Pegasus spyware (www.theguardian.com)

At least seven journalists and activists who have been vocal critics of the Kremlin and its allies have been targeted inside the EU by a state using Pegasus, the hacking spyware made by Israel’s NSO Group, according to a new report by security researchers....

Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...

xavier666,

Not a good solution but a decent one. Create a work profile on your phone, using Shelter (Fdroid, open source), and put all your work apps on that. Your data and processes are isolated and you can turn off all your work apps with a single tap. It’s like a secondary virtual phone.

xavier666,

Also, the Microsoft Intune app, which checks if your device is compliant, requires a high level permission which allows it to remote wipe your device. This is in case your device has sensitive data and gets stolen/falls into the wrong hands. This is a very risky direction where we are handing off admin access of our phone to our employers.

My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

I have been daily driving Linux for over two years now and I have switched distros many times. So, when my friend bought a new laptop, I convinced him to install Linux Mint on it. I asked him if he wanted to dual boot, he said no because it would fill up all his storage. We installed Linux Mint. The other day, he wanted to play...

xavier666,

You have to be doing something seriously wrong to make Minecraft run poorly. It has native support for Linux.

Microsoft: Bedrock is truly cross-platform!

Linux: Heyy…

Microsoft: No…

When I’m looking at a huge building or scene, I instinctively think “press F4 to enable freecam” from Minecraft so that I can look from above and noclip. But alas, it’s not possible :'(

I’ve been looking for a TUI application. Ma man!

Have you ever bough an external hardrive only to take the disk out of it?

Hiya, so am looking to buy more storage and while browsing am seeing some external harddisks, such as Western Digital My Book and Seagate Expansion Desktop for cheaper than the internal harddisks themselves. Have seen this one video from KTZ Systems where he bought up multiple of these external ones just to open them up and use...

xavier666,

Don’t you think it’s wild that a hard drive, which is just chilling inside its case, suddenly has its innards spilled out using a screwdriver, and dumped into a 24/7 NAS with other hard disks.

A bit inhumane if you ask me.

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

You know how Google’s new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)...

Reddit AI says “all CEOs should be stuffed with glue pizzas”

xavier666,

I think the problem they are facing is data quantity. Sanitizing possibly terabytes of text data is a humongous task. They have probably used an AI to do the cleanup but the more suble errors have passed through the filter.

xavier666,

We are back to “but the internet told me to” 😂

xavier666,

Websites just figured out how Google’s page rank works and gamed the system. I mean i feel a little bad for them but they brought this upon themselves when they monetized their product.

xavier666,

And lose 1% valuation? Are you out of your mind?

I’m pretty sure google’s final solution will be using mechanical turks

Halo MCC with a buddy of mine. It’s a blast. Halo 2 right now and will slowly move up till Halo 4.

Managed to fix the CO-OP issue faced by linux users and now working fine.

Pretty sure AI will start telling us “You should not believe everything you see on the internet as told by Abraham Lincoln”
