The other Q-tip is up his urethra and it’s spinning.

Apple – which advertises Safari as “incredibly private” – evidently has undermined privacy among European Union Safari users through a marketplace-kit: URI scheme that potentially allows approved third-party app stores to follow those users around the web.

I don’t see Apple deliberately sabotaging their platform to maliciously comply and blame the regulation for making users less safe. This was probably an error caused by quick development to comply within a set timeline that will be resolved in the future through software changes.

They mentioned one potential use that I thought has value and that I hadn’t considered. For video conferencing, this could transmit data without sending video and greatly reduce the amount of bandwidth needed by rendering people’s faces locally. I don’t think that outweighs the massive harms this technology will unleash. But at least there was some use that would be legit and beneficial.

I’m someone who has a moral compass and I don’t like that scammers will abuse this shit so I hate it. But there’s no keeping it locked away. It’s here to stay. I hate the future / now.

The eyes still have uncanny valley vibes, but that’s because I’m looking for it. If I wasn’t watching demo videos about generated video, I might not have noticed.

But they’re our ally, so nothing bad happened. Please remove this from your memory for the sake of a peaceful Middle East. Thanks! -USA

Addicted to genocide.

The best part is how I never used drugs where they were illegal. I promise.

Now I know the source of that sample in the Incubus song New Skin. I’ve been curious about that for two decades. Thanks!

I would’t have thought to train an LLM to create nude but say nothing about that when presenting it to Apple for App Store review only to then advertise that feature elsewhere. Damn.

In response, Xiaolei Wu said he would “chop [the woman’s] hands off”. A federal judge has ordered that the 26-year-old be deported after serving his sentence.

Good. Get this piece of shit outta here.

He told her that he had informed Chinese authorities about her actions and that China’s public security agency would “greet” the victim’s family, the US Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts said on Wednesday.

Fucking asshole.

I didn’t realize the toilet was a repository for code, but checks out.

But do put hot sauce in there.

Didn’t know about her, but now I do. Sounds like a great person on the side of users / the people.

Wu has been absent from social media since June 2023, reportedly after receiving a police visit due to her public criticisms of Signal and Chinese keyboard apps.

Sigh…

I think the media needed an excuse for how Trump came into power that didn’t examine the societal ills that led to former Obama voters switching teams. Did Russia gaslight people on Facebook? Yes, undoubtedly. But I think it’s our crumbling society that he knew how to grift and exploit against people who don’t have a very good understanding of history and politics that got him elected. The media didn’t want to talk about that because it could lead to calls for change and they are big business.

Just this once, I agree with the rich shithead. I think the videos are in poor taste, but no one country should be able to dictate what the rest of the world can access. Gdi. I need a shower.

South Park addressed this many years ago.

Very nice.

The real state secrets were water hose technology. Philippines better watch out, shit’s about to get real.

Hell fucking year, Lonnie is killin’ it! GO LONNIE GO!

I’ve gathered that Russia’s influence in the 2016 election in the USA was overblown. How much do we believe this to be the case in Slovakia? Smaller, closer target seems more likely to me. Trying to understand what is propaganda vs what is genuine.
