This is excellent news for human persons. Protocol implementations that only allow TLS are not very robust without human maintenence for more than a few years. That said, the human person use cases for HTTP/2 are pretty limited. Genera

Like Scott Manley says, going from a frequency domain image representation to a time domain sound file is something that is extremely old and does not and has not required AI the last 50 years. It's just that they vibe coded the extrem

Exactly. LLMs are not dangerous. Corporations are by far the most dangerous non-human persons.

No. It's more like, "You say I can take a photo of one flower in your flowerbed you put next to the public street, but you get upset when I take a bunch of photos of many public flowerbeds. That's both an over-reach and incon

Right. It's not AI. It's the corporations behavior in relation to AI. But most people have no experience or interaction with AI outside of corporate services or AI features in things that shouldn't have AI or make it worse (l

I think there's been some miscommunication. If the bitlocker activation happens during tricking the user into going from a local account to online account, it is without the user's consent or real participation. They haven't

How would a user that never set it up in the first place have a recovery key? I honestly am asking and don't know. I recently (last week) had to drive over to a parent's house and "fix" their (pre-online accounts) win 11

Yeah, the law interpreted by a reasonable person isn't the end of the world. But that's not how the DHS's ICE or CBP interpret it or how they operate. And now they're even using their probably illegal interpretation (via

Pizza delivery drivers face about twice as much risk of on the job injuries via violence when compared to cops. Also twice as much risk of fatal injuries. This mythos the US has with cops does not match reality.

There's no debating the performance. Charge trap flash makes computing so much better. It's just a shame things went SSD only. It really isn't an exaggeration when it comes to actual storage space available per prebuilt.
