Nah, I host it on a web hotel.

I am using a very generic ISP and they tend to have a dim view of running servers on their network.

I did have an RPi running SSH and a Mumble server directly connected to the internet years ago, but after a few years I realized that I was bringing needless attention to my network when I found my server on Shodan.

So I took it down…

Slight correction, internet connected devices without an open firmware are a misstake.

Yeah, see!

An RTG could power my phone!

Sigh, let me spell my point out for you…

What I mean is that I can absolutely believe that a solid state battery could power the next gen smart watch, I doubt it will.

Just as an RTG could power my phone, but I doubt that it will be powered by it.

If the mars rovers can function on a fraction of a watt, then I don’t know why my phone can’t…

This is kinda like saying that a radio thermal generator could power next gen’s phones.

I am sure it could, that doesn’t mean that it will.

So they are using the information they have in Azure/Entra about where you login from and presenting it to other users through Outlook/Teams?

Seems fine as long as they don’t include your exact address.

I just hate the comic style that is used in presentations like this, it is just too cutsey, and I can’t take it seriously

I am an IT technician working in Microsoft 365 / Azure, Microsoft makes changes so often that their own documentation hasn’t even been updated with the proper new name of the product in the product’s own documentation, oh and the name change took place several months if not a year ago.

I feel like I belong to one of the last generations that had to figure stuff out on our own when it came to computers back when I was a kid.

I was born in 87, my first computer ran Windows 3.11, I remember installing Windows 95 from floppy disks.

The whole “it just works” part of tech is both fantastic and horrible, fantastic in that it works, horrible in that when it doesn’t you get way fewer tools to work with.

Me and my friends calls this phenomenom “appification”, and it is terrible.

VLC is in the process of appifying itself, just look at the screenshots of version 4.

I will stand with you on the hill defending the Office 2010 UI, it was beautiful, clear and easy to work with.

The flat design of 2013+ was a mistake.

I never claimed the manuals did avsolve them of anything.

I simply said that the manuals are nice and complained about the meaningless Apple hate when the commenter had not even looked at the linked manuals.

If you had bothered to click the link in the post and read the manuals, you’d have found out that the manuals are very nice, but no, you just wanted to go “Appol bad”

I will never forget when I had to help a coworker with her laptop, she had long nails that had worn grooves in her keyboard keys.

She typed on her nails, the sound it made was terrible.

Oh, I realize why it is, I just don’t see it as an advantage, the whole argument is just a technical one, not a usabillity one.

I don’t really see the benefit of allowing users to create files with the same name in the same directory, yeah, yeah I know that case sensitivity means that it isn’t same name, but imagine talking to a user, guiding them to open the file /tmp/doc/File and they open /tmp/doc/file instead

As I noted, that only works with a limited set of AI companies.

They need to be in the juristiction of whatever government that decide to enforce the laws, if not, there is very little that can be done.

Then, besides needing to be in the right juristiction, the punnishment needs to be large enough that you can’t just budget it away.

Then any country doing this will know that they are deliberately getting rid of an important sector, while other countries will continue running their sectors.

Which will only be possible with good old fashioned bouble bursting as I said.

The issue with legally pulling the plug is that it won’t stop AI baddies, only good AI companies who respect the law.

The knowledge and tools are still out there.

But when the bouble bursts it will tank AI globally.
