Blue/gold gang unite!

Story time, third grader me would have done this no questions about it.

Having to solve multiplication and recently had learned the table of 9 trick i was looking if there where other tricks I could find.

The first one was number x10 and what i observed is that if you do times ten. You take the number. And you put 1 “0” behind it.

Interesting…. I thought

But the next one multiplied with a single digit so how could i apply that theory.

Simple. 1+0 is 1, which is a single digit so if you multiply by 10, you actually multiply by 1+0 which means you put 1 zeros behind it

Multiple by 2 is short for multiply By 2+0, put 2 zeros behind it

Multiply by 9, put 9 zeros behind it.

I definitely knew this is not what we had learned, and knew there was a “chance” i was going to fail all of these, i also even knew some of the actual answers however i also believed there was a chance that i found an alternative equally good solution, and I consciously decided to take that risk because I wanted to know if i was right. Maybe I discovered something new

My teacher was not happy to say the least, and in that (actual) furry did treat me unfair and it still bothers me. Because i got a zero for the assignment… while i was very certain that the 2 occurrences of x10 did have the appropriate solution.

“Ai-generated” “News content” fucking hell.

Yes ai needs a label to mark it.

Also news footage needs a label to mark authenticity (clicking on the logo of media should direct you to original source to confirm authorship and authenticity)

But those two should never ever mix. Ai generated news is fake news and any respectable journalist should stay far from it.

I misread this as “teen pregnancy” at first and with everything going on, i believed it.

The code to handle errors would be so bloated to deal with every conceivable and inconceivable situation you will get errors on your errors.

The computer is as helpful as it can be with what little context it knows of what was going on. Mostly it just knows that codeline 123 went fine and 124 went not.

This isn’t even fucking with them, it directs them to provide an actual proper answer.

I am inclined to agree with that sentiment.

However I don’t think thats the full story, there are plenty report of this happening on librewolf but I could not find any for firefox with fingerprint protection enabled, neither did i find any for tor (though sites not working on tor is expected and may just not get reported)

Its seems to me that librewolf has a very unique custom implementation of anti-fingerprinting that is not used elsewhere, ironically that means it could be used as an identifier of its own.

In the larger context this also isn’t just about one website. Claude isn’t trying to obtain any fingerprints and simply expects time to progress.

Plenty of other smaller sites that we don’t know might be affected.

I think they are neglecting a real issue because the bug report about it happens, by coincidence, be an llm site.

I prefer my browser doesn’t police what sites do and do not run.

Also, a site that you don’t use, not being useable. Has zero effect on you. Marking this as a positive seems rather petty.

Ffs, i dont know what browser to use anymore.

Firefox forcing native ai tools down our troath is just too nasty.

Librewolf being so anti ai, using claude in it freezes the page and they seem unwilling to fix it.

This wont hold because you don’t own anything using steam. Its a licensing contract that allows you to download and use the software they provide on their servers.

I want to be an inventor but i never though of it as a job, just what i wanted to do.

I am in IT now and tinkering on my homelab and customised linux feel close enough. The main essence i needed seem to be simple exercising a flow of creative ideas.

For every that doesn’t understand what this is about.

They are trying to filter content from 4chan

The images you upload gets scanned. If they contain the words “anonymous” it checks if it also contains “no.” And if it does it assumes its from 4 chan and then deliberately serves a misleading error.

Thats what copyleft licensing is for and why physical things are increasingly using gpl and other open software licenses.

He was the perfect actor for the job i can’t believe how the producers shot themselves in the foot like that.

Thats a good sign actually.

People have been sharing things in storage drives for decades. Fmhy has a list of some big ones, usually for books.

Traditionally i believe these were not advertised and more underground, a way to easily share with friends.

You didn’t really want them easily found and traceable to you though but that is what changed.

Piracy has become so normalised that people take it for granted that there are no legal risks involved. Normalising piracy is the first step for the ideals of software freedom to flourish.

After all what is a digital file if not a bunch of writing that instructs the computer to draw pixels on your screen. You wouldn’t copyright the words to ask a human to make a drawing about a copyrighted something, so why do it for a computer?

I am honored but in truth i am but a simple pinguin follower of the holy world of analoque_nowhere

In the mean time, Plan 9, since 1992,

annything but google is an improvement but none deserve a recommendation.

ddg is just bing with privacy features but still cozy with microsoft and allows some of their trackers.

Bing itself, does not need introducing as not being a good alternative.

Startpage is to google what ddg is to bing.

Searxng… being open source so you can check yourself if it doesn’t have trackers might be an improvement but if you are not self hosting it can you trust who is not to run custom snoopers? And if you do self host it… its still obtaining results from google and bing your as anonymous as the server ip.

“I know what i asked”

Oh sure, its the gamers who are doing the beating huh?

I doubt ai companies are scared of us… but maybe they should be.
