I tried to see a demo after signing up, but that's probably for the other side of things. I was curious how this compares to what I submitted today as others said it's similar to some government stuff https://news.ycomb

Does that use the "real" LinkedIn API or something else like Playwright? What model does it use? What vector database is it using?

I was also told this by someone randomly while working at a coffee shop here in DC. Something about CGA.

It also competed with Skype at the time which was one of the closest comparisons, but it had just been purchased by Microsoft and was being killed.

This is very similar to how the dating bots are using the DARVO (Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender) method and automating that manipulation.

I think the Discord situation is a bit different. Getting everyone to switch away from Discord has been hard because getting everyone to spontaneously switch with no clear benefit hasn't worked. They want to just keep using the app and

This is doable using high end stuff like Runway with a draft quality. Your better bet would be to generate a face as an image and then you can easily generate that same face in different expected poses and conditions. You can then use exist

I did this with OBS Virtual Camera for a thing in Oregon and it worked.

I used the regular home power stuff many years ago and the speeds were pretty bad and the network loss was unreliable. My understanding is that it has improved in some circumstances, but if the connection ends up "hopping" through

I think there is a difference between using Windows as something you need versus using it as your home base. I shudder at the idea of trying to "build a nest" with Windows. I'll go stay in someone elses crappy nest for a nigh

I know many people that access many different systems using remote desktop for this purpose. I use qemu in a docker container for many Windows related things, partially because I don't want to keep a "real" Windows system run

Oof. That's a special kind of stupid. I get how it happened, but like, they found a way to make calc bad while also bringing an obscure feature in modern browsers I hate with a passion. It reminds me of King of the Hill where Hank says

Not if the solutions to both are the same.

> Can we stop bikeshedding and agree that telcos are critical infrastructure and need to be highly secure in general? Yes, because the solutions to both are the same. Decentralized and trustless systems solve both problems is my opinion.

That's a solid no from me. Looks like I'll be moving my gaming friends back to Steam and the others to a secure messaging platform or one I can host myself. Before Discord I was running a Mumble server that everyone could connect

It's okay to have unlocked backdoors because you don't lock your front door?

Their network stack is ran by OpenAI and is now advertising cool new ways for us to stay connected in a fun way with Mobile Co (TM).

I think there is an easier substitution attack since there is shell expansion occuring. I will toy with it later today.

The problem is the back door. Decentralized systems don't have the same faults. Just because you want to force a structure or paradigm doesn't absolve it of responsibility for the problem. Hand waving the problem away because a co
