Back when I had a TiVo, this wasn't a thing. I cut the cord back in 2006 though -- linear tv is for old people.
If you cut the cord back in 2006, you are already old -- at least in the eyes of the youth.
My vote (via the mod points I never have to give) is that this was the funniest, but I was looking for a "short putt" joke, as in Miami is not a "long drive" from the twisted universe of the game.
Wasn't this single feature half the reason you use TiVo in the first place? The other half is just being able to record the show and watch it whenever you want.
Quite refreshing. Some new sick, scary idea, that I can not directly recall from any dystopian novel, but it would fit nicely into many of them. It's like a preludy to "Being Inc" from Lem's "Perfect Vacuum" (which is a collection of reviews of imaginary books, so it doesn't count). And what an endless opportunity for selling your life to whomever pays more. "Suggestions" like "how about movie X", "new restaurant Y", "buy product Z", etc. Sweet!
Won't someone think of the children? Seriously, kids these days immediately turn to AI for answers to everything, just like oldsters would easily google stuff from their 'smartphones'. And kids tend not to hesitate to upload so much of their personal information, which tends to stick around forever.
And companies get hacked by motivated actors using evolving tools and technology. What can possibly go wrong?
The US spent 75 years becoming one of the best, if not the best, scientific countries in the world and now, in just a few short years, it's rapidly undoing much of that.
The Trump administration has been an anathema to science for reasons which I fail to comprehend. Can someone explain why this is? Is this just something fascist autocrats do?

Yeah, letting China perform tech support for the DoD was probably the most boneheaded move ever. Bravo Microsoft
boneheaded and greedy
This is not exactly uncharted ground here.
Here's a really good article from the 2021 NY Times when it was legal to bet in New Jersey but not in New York and people literally rode their bikes to place geo-fenced NFL bets on the bridge between the two states.
Didn't you have to pay a shitload of taxes though? There are usually penalties for extracting money out of a 401k. I didn't think there was a way to move them to something like a money market account without incurring those penalties
The GP might be of an age and income which lowers the tax bracket for withdrawals, and without penalties. This is kinda the point of having a 401k.
It's not a question about immunity. It's a question about privacy
It seems to be a question of you not following the conversation, or did you reply to the wrong comment? This particular thread is about security.
OK, I could have phrased my reply better, but can't there be two perspectives? Security and Privacy? The Microsoft Corporation outed the guy using his Windows License ID.
A win would be these fucking companies spending the correct money for proper security. They skimp on their IT budgets so this happens, even after getting hacked!
This is such a simplistic take. We're living in the age of Anthropic's Mythos LLM, and others like it. Vulnerabilities ate being discovered at an unprecedented rate. Don't kid yourself that Linux will be immune.
It's not a question about immunity. It's a question about privacy -- using linux is clearly more private than using Microsoft and it's the lack of privacy that did the kid in.
Broardcom's entire business model with these acquisitions (they did the same thing with others before VMWare) is to acquire something everyone depends on AND can't easily switch off
The Martin Shkreli business model.
What are the odds Martin Shkreli will be 1 of the 250 pardoned this week, the 250th anniversary of the declaration of independence from a monarchy? After all Martin Shkreli is just another white collar criminal.
OOP is a way to organize your code.
OOP is a way to organize your code while standing on the shoulders of giants.
Headroom compresses everything your AI agent reads -- tool outputs, logs, RAG chunks, files, and conversation history -- before it reaches the LLM. Same answers, fraction of the tokens.
that OPM hack was a complete shit show... setting back human intel gathering operations by decades and compromising countless people... those OPM records had photos, biometric data, sensitive lie detector and security clearance info... including data that can be used to blackmail the people
The hacked entity in question was an out-of-date ColdFusion website. As late as 2015, ColdFusion was not a good idea for this subject matter.
