Should be thrown out. From the small evidence the reg showed, they said to their members when asked "Its still your choice if you want to be on the platform or not" (not a direct quote).
Also, it should be thrown out because he said "Go fuck yourselves" so they did.
Appears to me that billionaires now just abuse the court system as they can afford to do so. He's how Trump has lasted so long, ties people up in court until they run out of money.
"At least with AI I have to craft an extremely devious question to get an otherwise censored answer."
Not really. Some of them are bowing down to the CCP and Xi, so when asked about China and its history, it either lies or says it can't tell you. I annoyingly now can't remember which AI image creator it was now. I was thinking MidJourney but can no longer check now they've removed free access. Whenever you asked it to create funny images of other world leaders it would, asked it to do ones of Xi and it would refuse. There are other examples from a few years back when this all started, especially around questions on Tiananmen Square Massacre.
You're missing out. We're selective on what we see and Cineworld, despite heading for bankruptcy have a good idea by putting old movies back in the cinema. I still enjoy the feel of going to the movies, we're selective with the seats though and try to avoid when busy.
Considering he "warned" people of the dangers of AI in the industry, by cancelling his studio expansion claiming it wouldn't be needed with all this new AI.
Well you could, I say, could choose to NOT FUCKING USE IT. None of us want to see AI movies, so employ people and make that fucking expansion.
And if you look at some of the Chinese examples of AI, they are amusing. Sara AI was a Korean woman in a box. Another one they'd stolen the Western code. This was clear because it didn't understand local traditions or cultures. So when asking it for a picture of duck soup, it would show a duck swimming in soup.
But I only read this bit "If administrators have learned anything from the CrowdStrike chaos, it's to understand exactly what delayed updates mean – or don't mean – in the anti-malware world."
and thought "Oh fuck off. Are you a c-suit? You do realise there is no control over CrowdStrike's cocking updates, that's where the problem lies. Being forced to use CrowdStrike and it giving no option to control updates. As from what I've read, it updates every 2hrs to prevent attacks.
EDIT- Read the whole article now :) you do know, but my rant is still valid.
Microsoft gone to shit with their q&a sit satnav took over.
This was both their fault. Croudstrike for sending a cocked up file. And Microsoft's fault for allowing it to use a unique method to update the driver. Everyone else has to get recertified yet to avoid this, crowdstrike was allowed to update from a file. Thats a Microsoft fault not EU fault.
Microsoft just pissed because they were forced into competition "See. You had just let us monopolize, none of this would of happened"
Oh go fuck a duck MS and Sat Nav
"Looking at examples of these campaigns, it's difficult to see what admin in their right mind would fall for this kind of crud"
The ones where IT department has been "Let go" and replaced with Indian call centers, as mentioned on Reddit. When the finance lady had to take her monitor and keyboard to the server room to try and fix what the call centre was asking her to do over the phone. See left crying.
That's who'll get caught out. C level managers who think they don't need an IT team.
Probably and they've also probably been promoted. After all, these places are always run on the "Peter Principle" promote incompetence, to shield you from your own incompetence. Anyone that has any skill or knowledge gets kick around and they only stay because 1. They want to stuff to be done properly and hope they can make it happen 2. They don't have the confidence to go elsewhere.
Fucks me right off, to no end that this happens time and time and time and time again. Poor management, by managers who are out of their depth but kiss arse so are where they are, yet super shit at their job, push for unrealistic goals and when its pointed out "This can't be done, that's not how the tech works" and/or "This is outside of my JD, I'm not skilled" are just told "Get on with it, we sometimes have to do work outside our JD". Yeah and that's why this fucked up you cunt!
Sorry, went on a personal rant at the end.
Prompt : If the US President is now immune and the constitution itself is now unconstitutional, then how can it be unconstitutional if the constitional itself is unconstitutional. How can you class it as unconstitutional, when you need a constitution to declare it so, which you're now saying is unconstitutional?
Which is when I feel its fare game to show them how much of a bad day it will give them. Fuck them if they won't listen. Many moons ago on a Def Con panel chat, one of the pen testers said "Maybe we should reem these companies. We tell them time and time again in their yearly pen tests what their issues are, you come back then next year and nothing has been patched. Maybe its time to teach them the lesson". I disagreed with that. Its a companies choice not to patch, they might see stuff as low risk or willing to take the chance. They might be short stuff and can't afford to patch, its not up to you to "teach them a lesson". I don't mind a "We thank you for your report and will take note of the issues. However, due to budget costs, we may not be able to patch them".
But when you get a big tech company that fobs you off and essentially talks to you like you're wasting their time and that you're the problem, then fuck them. I would of just released the prompt.
He's an idiot and so are his supporters. What gets me is the Russia thing, or "The REDS" we "hate the REDS" they used to say. There has been some entertaining movies over the years over those "Reds" and "'merica" types. Red Dawn, Hunt for Red October, Air Force One (not technically Russia but still "Commies") to name but a few. All the red neck, 'merica types loved these. Would shout how great 'merica is and how bad Russia is. Yet oddly now, because of the Orange Tango Twat, they appear to love Russia and would like a dictactorship. Very odd bunch of people.
Yep. Although he's genuinally more successful than Trump and less of a cunt, I've come to realise I'm not sure he's the king of business he's been made out to be.
Lee Mack was on a chat show with him and Pamela Stephenson. Lee Mack was nervous and said Alan was being derogatory about Pamela's job as a psychologist. Something about it not being a real title or something (Lee tells this better than me on the Richard Herring podcast). Lee piped up "No Alan, its not everyone that can buy a title". Lee felt good, he hadn't said much and this was his best joke. Unfortunately he said Alan called the BBC later and demanded they cut that bit :o) and them being the spinless fucks they are, did.
Alan Sugar will probably like it. He's gotten all bent out of shape due to people working from home, and why? Because his money is in office space. He maybe a billionaire but he made cheap products with cheap parts just at the right time.
Most of his kit was shit and many moons ago he was on Jon Ross touting the animatronic of his face, like the singing fish. Really shitty devices.

He even admitted once, not to long ago, don't start up a business, just buy property. Mainly because all his money now is in those properties. And with everyone working from home, he won't be able to sell his office space. And as always, fuck whit managers either don't see this or want to kiss his arse, despite never meeting him.
My long winded point. Alan could stop moaning about people working from home and instead change some of his buildings into data centres.
I've said this with a lot of data with AI. To fight against it, people need to just do massive dumps of bad data for them to slurp to poison their training. Apparently people are doing it with their art. Doing something specific to it so it looks fine but it then screws up AI's attempt to train or copy from that image.
Getting more and more annoyed with Cloud bollocks and companies bate and switch. Pulling people into services they like they deciding to can them. At least when you bought the software on CD/DVD you could use it years after its out of support.
Problem is businesses just accept it and we're told to fix it but clueless management.
Little Xi Winnie the Pooh man. Go fuck a duck. You ban all Western app and the West just says "Fine", the West attempts to do the same to you and you go nuts. Just look at TikTok, very odd that you are getting involved with that if you have nothing to do with ByteDance.
Don't like the West's policies? Then don't fucking trade with it, simple. Don't keep crying about it moaning its unfair when you do the exact same to everyone else. You buy up land in foreign countries but any foreigner who even attempted to buy up Chinese land would get told to "fuck off" by the CCPCPPCPPCPPC.
I was going to say that. DAB is fing annoying. Driving round and hit dead spots so it just goes silent. At least with FM you can make a crystal radio set, never going to happen with DAB or DAB+.
I thought they were turning off FM in the UK but hopefully that's out the window considering DAB signal wise ain't great.
They weren't his. He was requested to give them back, he didn't and choose to hide them. Not only is Cannon clearly delaying for him, now so are the Supreme and massively bent court judges (not all of them as 3 voted against the immunity case) with their bullshit ruling on the immunity case.
So now, Biden should send out seal team 6 to end Trump, simple and then say "Well Trump did say a president should have total immunity, even for killing their political rival. And because the Supreme Court appeared to agree with him, depsite us not having a King/Queen or this ever being a problem before in US history. I just did what Trump said I could do, so I took him out. Quite good really because now we don't have to listen to anymore of his grifting bollocks".
Yep, with MSPs they end up always being more expensive, you never have the same, regular engineer as they support loads of different companies, their 1st line always ends up with a high turn over as they appear to run that line like a sweat shop. And you'll be hit with extra charges when a site visit is required because the user doesn't know how to turn a monitor on.
The designers get the praise and money, fuck the engineers. Much like MikesElectricStuff. He did a very nice display many years ago now (on his YouTube channel I believe) but when you went to the official "designers" site, no mention of the engineer that designed the electronics (Mike) and made sure it all worked. No, them being poncy designers, everything was done by them. I don't think Mike cared, he got a nice pay out for it being freelance but still. Wouldn't take much to at least acknowledge your art design wouldn't of been pulled off without the engineers behind it.
