Technology@lemmy.world•Deepfakes are everywhere, but digital forensics experts are fighting backEnglish
1·1 day agoBecause having an automated way to identify what is real and what is fake can be extremely useful. That example has major red flags, but perhaps it could be that you want to check an image that doesn’t have any glaring red flags.
Most people can’t tell the difference between the two, probably because they don’t know how either of them works. And just like others have said, it’s the same thing with CGI. I was watching Avatar 2 the other day and one of my friends said something about the graphics like “oh, that’s probably AI”, and I angrily replied “do you have any idea of how many dozens, if not hundreds of people painstakingly worked on this movie’s CGI??”

Technology@lemmy.world•A federal agent said WhatsApp's encryption is a lie. Then the investigation was shut downEnglish

1·3 days agoI see. I thought that the backdoor had to be in the client, because I thought that could be the only place where the private keys are stored, but I’ve since realized that it could be on the server. Thanks for the insight.

1·3 days agoOoh, I see. Thanks.
Thanks, I went to check. Despite having been a Nintendo fan for years, I haven’t been keeping up with their latest news.
Damn, didn’t expect them to make a Star Fox release, especially after the Star Fox reference in the new Mario movie. I get what they are saying, but I don’t think this was the reason why they did this. I think it has to do with two different things. The first one is the expectations that new Nintendo Switch 2 games are trying to meet. People who bought the Switch 2 expect better graphics and performance that on the OG Switch, so most exclusive titles have been trying to do more visually impressive graphics. “Photorealistic” animals just seems to be part of this team’s idea of visually impressive graphics. The second reason is that, from what I’ve gathered, Star Fox 64 has already had one remake and one “reimagining” before this new title, which will also a remake of Star Fox 64. If this new game looked anything like either Star Fox 64 3D or Star Fox Zero, people would just say “eh, who cares, this is just more of the same that we’ve already got”, and wouldn’t be as excited to buy the game. So they changed the characters’ designs, to make it look different.
Wait, what new Starfox character designs?
Uncaffeinated needs Lisp in their life. The programming language doesn’t have a feature you need? Implement it yourself 👍

Linux@lemmy.ml•It seems Linux Mint is dropping GNU coreutils in favor of rust-coreutils following Ubuntu.
3·12 days agoThe comment itself:
[…] Rust-coreutils does affect us. This is something we definitely see as part of the base so even though we would prefer for coreutils not to change, we’re hoping to align with Ubuntu on this. We’re concerned with regressions. New code almost always introduces regressions. That’s a lot of new code on very important components. I was shocked to see rust-coreutils updated from 0.7 to 0.8 just days before the stable release of Ubuntu 26.04. It actually broke something important on our side. We fixed it. I’m sure Ubuntu will update it whenever new regressions are found. We’ll see.

Technology@lemmy.world•European Union (EU) finds Meta in breach of Digital Services Act for failing to prevent minors under 13 from using Instagram and FacebookEnglish
2·14 days agoFrom the linked press release:
For example, when creating an account, minors below 13 can enter a false birth date that makes them at least 13 years old, with no effective controls in place to check the correctness of the self-declared date of birth.
Meta’s tool for reporting minors under 13 on the platform is difficult to use and not effective, requiring up to seven clicks just to access the reporting form, which is not automatically pre-filled with the user’s information. Even when a minor under 13 is reported for being under the age threshold, there often is no proper follow-up, and the reported minor can simply continue to use the service without any type of check.

Technology@lemmy.world•A federal agent said WhatsApp's encryption is a lie. Then the investigation was shut downEnglish
13·14 days agoWhat I don’t understand yet is why there haven’t been any independent cybersecurity experts capable of finding a backdoor in WhatsApp. How hard would it be for an expert without access to the source code to find one? Are any independent entities monitoring WhatsApp’s security at all??
What does the “Miss me with xxx” idiom mean? Does it mean something like “I’m tagging out/leaving because of xxx”?
You mean:
apple =
dh/dx - dh/dy =
2xy f’(x²y) - x² f’(x²y) =
2*2*2 *2 - 2*2 *2 = 16 - 8 = 8Your message’s formatting was a little weird (writing
*italic*in Markdown makes the word “italic” show up in italic and makes the asterisks disappear; Lemmy uses Makdown for styling messages)P.S.: great job with the math btw

7·24 days agoMy main gripe is the lack of professional typesetting software. Scribus just doesn’t cut it.

And there are probably many users that do all of this due to being afraid that things might just start breaking, or that more actions they don’t understand will be required to keep the system rolling, if they stray from this path for even a little.
