Hostnames are not private information. There are too many ways how they get leaked to the outside world. It can be useful to hide a private service behind a URL that isn't easy to guess (less attack surfaces, because a lot of attackers

Like I said: sandboxing doesn't solve the problem. As long as the agent creates more than just text, it can leak data. If it can access the internet in any manner, it can leak data. The models are extremely creative and good at figurin

OpenClaw is not broken, it is just not designed to be secure in the first place. It's more like a tech demo to show what's possible. But also to show where the limits are. Look at it as modern art, like an episode of Black Mirror.

The main issue why we don't see AI agents in products: PROMPT INJECTIONS Even with the most advanced LLMs and even sandboxing there is always the risk of prompt injections and data extraction. Even if the AI can't directly upload

What a weird take. I was running my own email server 25 years ago on a 512 kbit ADSL line. No problem at all, would even be enough bandwidth today for most messages. (Back then email still worked from residential IP addresses, and wasn&#x27

It's a scam for investors. The self-driving car worked too well. Tesla is promising that for over a decade now, and still can't deliver. They came much closer to the goal, but are still very far away from it. Shareholders don&#x27

I think Musk is backed into a corner financially. Most of his companies don't have that much revenue and their worth is mostly based on hope. They might be closer to collapsing than most people think. It's not unheard of that a bi

A lot of companies already have Teams included in their existing licenses. But yeah, Microsoft licensing is impossible to understand.

Because slack startet to extort their customers. I guess many moved away, to be prepared if slack decides to push their prices even further.

This was discussed before: if your Windows computer doesn't have a valid HEVC license installed, then Teams falls back to software encoding and performs horrible. Most manufacturers include the license, but not all. It's also only

I don't have a lot of complaints with the current version of teams. Messaging and video calls work without major issues. It's bloated, and all those plugins are usually bad, but the basics work well for me. The new Outlook app is

For most people it works like that. Only a tiny minority keeps pushing after that point. I just can't see an angle to OpenClaw that could provide a substantial financial gain for the creator. It's clearly a passion project. Like G

Only on the most shallow level. Early Facebook was like meeting up with friends. Modern social media is like shouting at strangers on the street.

You're supposed to give the Bot a fresh account, or separate phone number. Not connect it to your personal iMessage, Telegram or WhatsApp.

In this case it's only about payout from views/engagement of posts. There is no commercial interest from the developer of OpenClaw. He doesn't make any money from it. He made enough from selling his startup a few years back.

Modern social media is nothing like social media in early days (myspace, early Facebook and even early Instagram). Back then it was a platform to communicate with friends, and maybe even find new friends to meet up with. Today social media

The Tesla Semi was groundbreaking when they revealed it nearly 10 years ago. But now there are dozens of electric truck models, and they get delivered in substantial quantities for over a year now. At least in Europe.

The difference is emotionally based retaliation vs. reassessing risk. And it's about money, so it's for sure not about emotions. The financial world isn't run on anger and emotions, like the White House.

My biggest issue is the lack of really good cases. There are all those fancy peripherals you can buy, but it's really hard to find simple case that works without overheating and no cables sticking out on all four sides.

Analog pictures are really easy to keep in good shape. I have a family album that is more than 100 years old now, those pictures are still fine. The first color pictures from the 60s got a weird tint though. But nobody knows how good the co

I think I have some bitrot in my photo collection, there are a few pictures that seem to be broken, but it's far less than 1%. I'm fine with it. I could probably restore most of those images if I tried.

The digital photos are not my issue. Especially in the early 2000s the files were really small, super easy to copy. I've always moved them to a new laptop, I guess I have at least 8 copies lying around in different places. More problem
