Whomp-whomp: #AI PCs make users less #productive - People just don't know how to wrangle #chatbots into useful things, #Intel says


Source: theregister.com/2024/11/22/ai_…

As the #study itself explains: "Many AI users spend a long time identifying how best to communicate with AI tools to get the desired answers or response. Organizations providing AI-assisted products must offer greater #education in order to truly showcase the potential of 'everyday AI'."

The #Kremlin has revised its #nuclear #policy. Does that make the use of atomic #weapons more likely?


Source: apnews.com/article/russia-nucl…

It adds that nuclear weapons could be used in these scenarios: If reliable information is received about the takeoff or launch of strategic and tactical aircraft, cruise missiles, drones, hypersonic or other flying vehicles and their crossing the Russian border.


So a #military drone across the border is enough? Nearly the same bullshit is standing in the US version. This means they can use nuclear weapons in every war at any time.

WTF Ubiquiti. Just opened the Unifi app and presented with this screen. I have to agree to use the app. It just closes if I decline.

Can I not decline sending statistics and reports, that's gotta be breaking a law 🤔

"Designed to protect your privacy", the best way to do that is not to collect anything, not force users into agreeing to send their data even if it is supposedly anonymised.

UX design fail.
Move the cursor over a 'tile'. Tile gets bigger. Click tile. Nothing happens. Move the mouse cursor on the actual image inside the tile and click, and the program starts.

#Orbot lies brazenly to the user


Source: guardianproject.info/apps/org.…

Orbot is a very useful app for using the #TOR #network on #Android. With all due respect to floss and the achievements of the altruistic developers, I still think it's downright cheeky to lie so blatantly to the user.

The bridge functionality, which can be optionally activated, allows users from the censored Internet, where all TOR servers are blocked, to connect anyway.

Orbot is writing:

It will not drain your battery


This is wrong. There will be more background activity for this connections and this will cost battery power. This is a damn lie!

It will not slow down your internet


This is wrong. There will be connections from others and they will slow down your internet. With a big bandwidth you won't note it but not everyone have high speed internet. This is a damm lie!

🤥

#Amazon confirms #employee data stolen after #hacker claims #MOVEit #breach


source: techcrunch.com/2024/11/11/amaz…

“Amazon and AWS systems remain secure, and we have not experienced a #security event. We were notified about a security event at one of our property management vendors that impacted several of its customers including Amazon. The only Amazon information involved was employee work contact information, for example work email addresses, desk phone numbers, and building locations,” Montgomery said.


If not even a company like Amazon can store its data securely, is there any security at all? Amazon doesn't lack money or experts, but it does seem to lack secure software.

Why is my air fryer spying on me? Which? reveals the #smart devices gathering your data - and where they send it


Source: which.co.uk/policy-and-insight…

The Aigostar air fryer wanted to know gender and date of birth when setting up an owner account, again for no clear reason, but this was optional. The Aigostar and #Xiaomi fryers both sent people’s personal data to servers in #China, although this was flagged in the #privacy notice.


Why must smart technology be in the #cloud - is the advantage of this only surveillance? 🤔

Americans' #Trust in #Media Remains at Trend Low


Trust in political and civic institutions highest for local and state #governments, lowest for media and #Congress


Source: news.gallup.com/poll/651977/am…

In an age of #fake news, #propaganda, #maga, #Twitter #bots and Russian #troll factories, we actually need trustworthy journalism. I must once again explicitly point out that the principle of "trust nobody" does not mean no longer believing official sources and only consuming unfiltered news from Russian-controlled #Telegram channels and basing your world view on them.

"Trust nobody but don't stop thinking - if you belive the earth is flat you are far beyond a border no one should pass!"

UN #Security Council to meet Monday over #Israel's strike on #Iran


Source: uk.news.yahoo.com/un-security-…

“The Islamic Republic of Iran, in alignment with the principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations and under international law, reserves its inherent right to legal and legitimate response to these criminal attacks at the appropriate time,”...


I always ask myself whether these people are still capable of logical thinking? If this Israeli airstrike was criminal, what was the Iranian one? If the Iranian one was a justified retaliation in his way of thinking, why is the retaliation of the retaliation criminal? Why are such people tolerated in the #government?
