@barcaxavi My problem is that not all of my subs have RSS anymore (and I think it'll get worse) :(

Some places of #Fedi literally require you to look up the Communist Manifesto.

Un-fucking-believable.

Any recommendations for #Lemmy / #Kbin replacements for /r/netsec and the like?

I feel that my days of following Reddit without their app/website are numbered.

Now it's official: On Thursday, the EU Commission will propose a new law they call the . It will ban young people from a range of different online services and be enforced by the Commission themselves.

What a waste of political capital and legislative resources.

Microsoft describing a ClickFix attack in 2026:

Make sure your web browser isn't 6 years out of date.

(Adobe stopped supporting Flash at the end of 2020, with major browsers automatically blocking it at the beginning of 2021)

After years inside datacenters, it’s hard to be afraid of AI killing all humans. I've seen the "secure facility." It's a chain link fence and a guy named Gary.

Night shift is usually 10-20 people. Two hundred people could shut a datacenter down with nothing but a Wikipedia article on fiber optics and some enthusiasm. Start swinging and you’ll hit something valuable pretty fast.

The "secure cages"? Chain link. The lobby's got badges and mancatchers and a guard who checks your ID like it insulted him. Out back it's a sliding metal door, propped open with a folding chair by whoever's waiting on FedEx.

It's not a fortress. It's a strip mall with better cable management.

@masek This. I'd add that calling for a *slowdown*[1] (on Anthropics[2] side) is likely a pretext for below-expectation numbers ("they are like this, because we're deliberately slowing down") in the near future and getting IPO off the table altogether ("we'll do that once we can go full speed again").

Reminder: There is exactly one reason why a company postpones an IPO.

That is: They wouldn't get the money they expect or need.

When I read about OpenAI delaying the IPO due to the dangers of AI, I am certain they mean the danger their AI poses to their own quarterly figures (revenue vs. cash burn) they have to publish.

RE: https://ciberlandia.pt/@d3/117247637388924882

Age verification is having a moment in the EU. But we should ask why scrolling is so hard to stop rather than for whom 👀

Our 🇵🇹 member D3 has brought the first class-action lawsuits vs. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok & YouTube for their “addictive design”.

👏🏾 A bold & timely action! The attention economy has all of us in sight, we urgently need to tackle the business models & design practices that exploit vulnerabilities & manipulate behaviour.
