Think about all the absolutely terrible writing that’s out there. Writing that people are reading because they feel like they’ve read everything else in their fetish genre already.

You can do better than that! Surely!

It’s so bad that people are resorting to using AI to write (awful) stories for them. These stories don’t make any sense yet people read them anyway. Why? Because they ran out of the other stuff they like in their little fetish genre.

Tell your story! I’m positive someone will be interested in it.

I recently wrote a novel for a writing contest: https://www.honeyfeed.fm/novels/22194

Many people thought it was funny and entertaining but most stopped reading after the second or third chapter. The people that made it all the way to the end expressed an attitude like, “Finally! A story that’s actually unique!” And that’s exactly why I wrote it! Because I’m sick of “the same old shit” (in the isekai genre) 🤣

Write your story for you and be satisfied 👍

I hope the SCOTUS justices aren’t using 3-strikes-you’re-out ISPs! All it would take is three random DMCA takedown notices and they’d lose Internet.

You jest, but if conservatives have their way, you’ll soon have to verify your ID by uploading a video every time you visit the site (if not logged in). Even for non-adult content!

Because the reason for the ID isn’t to “protect the children” or anything like that. It’s about control. Conservatives want the power to decide what people get to see and ID verification systems are just a small part of that.

This is fowl play!

A “minor slip-up during a ‘bottoms up moment’” fits this problem to a tea.

Doesn’t matter: Nobody uses right shift for anything but pinball games!

What should be illegal is patents like this!

Open source software. Sigh.

You know they’re just buildings full of servers, right?

I mean, I’d rather have a data center than some toxic chemical factory or a busy warehouse in my neighborhood. Data centers just… sit there. They use a lot of power and some use a lot of water, but if your region doesn’t have power/water problems it’s not really much of an impact.

A nation’s supercomputing power used to be something people celebrated. Especially one owned and operated by a place like Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Great idea!

My thoughts, exactly: Why is this a big deal? Imagine the positive press it would be if Apple came out and said, “We did that on purpose. More companies should be this open!”

The security impact of this: Zero (clients are already given the code)

The reputational impact: Could be great! Or could be bad if they play this the wrong way.

This is how the software works:

The business model is hoping that non-professional users will sign up for canva subscriptions in order to take advantage of the AI features. There’s zillions of users like that—far more than the number of professional graphic artists that would pay for this software.

Having a unique password per device is best practices. IoT vendors should be doing that regardless of whether or not they’re giving the end user root.

There’s supposed to be a regulation demanding an IoT “nutrition label” that has that very thing in its list of items. I wonder what happened to that?

Listen, if someone gets physical access to a device in your home that’s connected to your wifi all bets are off. Having a password to gain access via adb is irrelevant. The attack scenario you describe is absurd: If someone’s in a celebrity’s home they’re not going to go after the robot vacuum when the thermostat, tablets, computers, TV, router, access point, etc are right there.

If they’re physically in the home, they’ve already been compromised. The fact that the owner of a device can open it up and gain root is irrelevant.

Furthermore, since they have root they can add a password themselves! Something they can’t do with a lot of other things in their home that they supposedly “own” but don’t have that power (but I’m 100% certain have vulnerabilities).

If I broke into your home, why TF would I carefully take apart your robot vacuum in order to copy your wifi credentials‽

Also, WTF other “secrets” are you storing on your robot vacuum‽

This is not a realistic attack scenario.

NO! It’syour device, you should have root! The fact that the manufacturer gives their product owners root is a good thing, not bad!

I will die on this fucking hill.

He should play on all the girls teams, crush it like a total badass, then when conservative parents complain that “a boy is playing on the girls team” everyone can tell them to shut the fuck up because this is the future they always wanted. One with no exceptions or grey areas to speak of.

Don’t let anyone ever say this administration wasn’t a shit show. He posted it himself!
