Heh... understandable

Personally I'm actually here *because* I wanted to see what the Slashdot takes on the current AI panic are. I haven't been on here except in passing for some time, having drifted to sites like Reddit - honestly I'd say that was a mistake. Let's just say Slashdot's moderation and metamoderation system seems a lot more resilient against echo chambers, brigading, bots and the Dunning-Kruger effect. That and I've always quite respected the technical minds who post here. Maybe it's rose tinted specs, but I'm glad to see it being discussed somewhere I consider relatively sane. Perhaps the site is just long overdue topic filters!

Then they should pass a law disallowing that but they won't. Because they all do it.

(According to Gemini) Pop music frequently uses the same four chordsâ"the tonic (I), dominant (V), submediant (vi), and subdominant (IV)â"due to their pleasant, easily digestible, and familiar sound to Western listeners. The most common progression, , powers numerous hits because it provides stability, resolves easily, and allows for endless, catchy melodic variation.

This is why jobs will be replaced with AI.

So basically the people who purchase our products emitted CO2. I don't get the point of the article. Blame the marketing team at Saudi Aramco convincing people to buy their products?

"Saudi Aramco was responsible for 1.7bn tonnes of CO2, much of it from exported oil."

Imagine being fined for a political opinion because you don't have a degree political science... how could anyone thing this is good?

If they are only relaying data I guess it would be an easy fix, just send the data up encrypted and it just passes it along. But if they are actually needing to interact with the data I guess that's a problem.

You can even Veeam directly into S3. I saw a site using some kind of tape emulator application that made an S3 instance look like tape drive to the OS. Perfect if you just refuse to get rid of Veritas.

Synth journalist says synths are nothing to worry about.

Can other people be proud of their former empires? British Empire, Holy Roman Empire, etc?

I've had 3 company issues iPhones. The last 3, an XR, 13, and 15 were indistinguishable performancewise. I couldn't even physically see a difference between the 13 and 15 other than the charging port. They could have just handed me the same phone year after year and I wouldn't have noticed.

Hitting that tab button.

I've noticed that people who are disagreeing with people who reference the law or constitution directly as the source of decisions are being flagged as Off Topic or Troll.

We have gotten so far away from what is actual constitutional and what is not that people can't handle being shown what is true.

Fitting name because I'm perplexed why anyone would knowingly install this. (I bet they won't, it's going to be bundled on cheap PCs for sure!)

Yeah I think this is it also. In general I prefer office work, but I like the option of working from home in case of some kind of emergency, but where I work they this year classified my job as not WFH eligible, even though 95% of my work during the week is over SSH, or working in Office 365.
