As I understand it the TPM is for people who have physical access. It prevents them from cloning your disk.

I think with an adequately long password (or an adequately resource-intensive encryption algorithm) you can secure your disk enough to prevent unauthorized access. But the TPM would prevent them from removing your hard-drive and shunting it into a super-computer (so all password attempts wouldn't need to be on the crummy 10-year old laptop CPU) so a TPM + password is more secure.

The "generative" AI debate.

Most of the criticisms are misleading and hyperbolic (if not straight up counter-productive), and it has zero real use cases other than making the internet useless by filling it with thousands of scam websites. I guess it could also be used to give you a TLDR of things. Either way though nothing we do or say is going to change things since the technology is already out there.

Oh damn, so just viewing a file in your file manager is enough to get infected in an insecure desktop environment, as thumbnails can be generated programmatically? If I clicked a bad link that would 100% infect my system.

I'm not worried too much about screen-capture. I'm worried first and foremost about triggering any arbitrary code execution and thumbnail generation on a file would definitely do it.

I'm considering switching to Floorp, I'll need to check of Pewdiepie has his reasons and what those are.

Then let me instead zero in on a different idea, from before I edited in the TLDR.

"Both sides are made up of horrible people, just with different policy"

Russia's been bombing Ukrainian schools and hospitals, if Russia does retaliate I don't think a drone attack on war planes is sufficient to call it "provoked".

We are not currently on track for the world to end. Things are bad, but not that bad.

I answered with a question because your question was absurd.

I support the fight for self-determiniation in Palestine, Hawaii, US territories, Punjab, Taiwan, Ukraine, Somaliland, Kurdistan, and Kosovo. I'd probably support a bunch more fights if I'd have heard of them.

I don't support, and in no universe will I ever support, Russia's war of aggression in order to exert control over Ukraine.

Sorry, I got my words mixed up.

Do you support the right to self determination only for the people that want to integrate into Russia, or universally?

[-] Tenderizer78@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 months ago

Yes, it is a lot. But again not apocalyptic. And it's noteworthy how the article tries to frame it hyperbolically as "22% of US household consumption".

Do you refuse the right to self determination only for the people that want to integrate into Russia, or universally?

And all it took was someone responding with actual information, instead of 20 people responding with a straw man attack.
