Realistic human skin? Realistic robot skin?

Laziest common response to things like this. People still use Windows? People still use cars? WordPress is insanely popular and there's no indication that's going to change. Not even after you've chosem to signal to all of us here that you don't use it. Good for you, though!

I did that and it was a mess, with warnings about being unable to backup that I couldn't get rid of. I had to reinstall to try to turn off syncing, then remove again. But it's so integrated that my desktop is still under a OneDrive subfolder and it's still referenced in various places.

Is there a guide to completely removing this from Windows 11 cleanly?

wagoner ,

No idea but, after a quick search to learn what this is, I'm not sure how it would help were it to be an option.

Tesla model 3 doors do not lock immediately every time they shut. But if you use your cell phone as a key, the default behavior is that they are locked if you walk away with the phone a few yards.

Novice web site owner/coder here: wondering if I can block them somehow via IP address in addition to robots.txt. Server firewall rule? Remember, I said I was a novice....

Or fund new content

Realistically, what can you use this for that's worthwhile?

Cool looking device though.

How else will they continue to exchange illegal images with each other?

With my EV I follow recommended practice to ensure longevity of the battery. I rarely charge it more than halfway as I don't need to for my regular usage, and I avoid letting it run down entirely. Once you engage in battery swapping, where's the incentive to take care of it well? After my first swap my brand new excellent condition battery is replaced by who knows what.

Doesn't Digital Commons mean common ownership? A personal blog of family photos inherently owned by that photographer are surely not commonly owned. I see this as problematic.

I'd like to see evidence of what the original poster on this thread says before trusting what they are saying. I haven't seen this be the case at all.

"We purchase and acquire books—yes, physical, paper books—and make them available for one person at a time to check out and read online"

"Crucially, the order did not provide the contents of the activist’s email, which are encrypted and cannot be accessed by Proton. Yen said a similar order would also not be able to provide ProtonVPN metadata, as VPNs are subject to different requirements under Swiss law."

But are they also required to do so?

Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be "more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence."...

They excel at pivots

As we learned from the reddit app changes, the ending of Netflix account sharing, etc etc the people who will take this action are few enough not to matter. Regretfully.

I'd like to believe that to be true

Who wrote this article, Oil and Gas Inc?

"BREAKING: Staffed gas stations have been robbed at gun point, scaring drivers into buying EVs so they can charge alone safely instead"

Would you allow the children to have a cell phone in school so they can say goodbye to their parents before they are shot to death? Seems a fair concession vs the apparent need to prevent the kids from spreading misinformation about a gunman roaming the school.

I was responding to the point being made that smartphones are a detriment during a school shooting due to students sharing misinformation.

As usually, I've read out this here in the last couple of days and still no email communication from Ticketmaster.

Google Search’s “udm=14” trick lets you kill AI search for good | Ars Technica (arstechnica.com)

Tack "&udm=14" on to the end of a normal search, and you'll be booted into the clean 10 blue links interface. While Google might not let you set this as a default, if you have a way to automatically edit the Google search URL, you can create your own defaults.

wagoner ,

Google kills its golden goose search engine and is thought here up be too smart to disable a workaround... I'm doubtful.

I mean, what are you really asking? For her to do something? It's an announcement posting for a new position she has started, setting out who she is for people. So negative.

Regretfully, tens of millions of users who don't fall into those categories

"former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, reality show host Kevin O’Leary, and now Frank McCourt"

What a cast of characters wanting to swoop in an buy this

If they can't direct me to the right web site because they can't tell what's LLM junk, then how will they summarize an answer for me based on those same web sites they know about? It doesn't seem like LLM summaries are a way to avoid that issue at all.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with musk planning his own encrypted Twitter DM feature.

The interviewer lost me at "while Elon does appear committed to openness and freedom of speech". Especially when they proceed later to talk about Elon taking down posts when asked by the Indian and Australian governments, locally to those territories and the world.

Dell responds to return-to-office resistance with VPN, badge tracking, and color-coding of employees (arstechnica.com)

Do the top executives also sit randomly with other colleagues?

wagoner ,

So basically: both sides are as bad as each other and anyway probably it's all bad anyway?

Even if true that both sides are heavily invested in oil, both sides are not objectively equal on decisions to expand vs limit oil exploration rights, and both sides are not the same in pushing for more electric and less gas, and in improving vs reversing fuel efficiency standards, etc etc

The Best Secure Email Providers in 2024 (blog.thenewoil.org)

Like it or not, email is a critical part of our digital lives. It’s how we sign up for accounts, get notifications, and communicate with a wide range of entities online. Critics of email rightfully point out that email suffers from a significant number of flaws that make it less than ideal, but that doesn’t change the...

Idk... my gut tells me... didn't people say... might be... I'm probably going to be down voted to hell... if something's too good to be true...

What a ridiculous response.

wagoner ,

I quoted the bits that answer your question and which completely undermine the bits I didn't quote.

wagoner ,

This is all kinda of weirdness. You were the one who asked me a question, and I responded to it. And now I'm done. Have a nice day.

That photo was more than just some trees

Rumors or wishful thinking, I wonder

Lag?

The deal was just announced, so I think it's unreasonable to expect shared storage on day one. It does seem a logical thing to do in time, though.

Health organism? You mean a human being?

I've used it for years. What's not robust?

wagoner ,

Interesting thoughts and methods, thanks for taking the time. I had interpreted "not robust" as meaning you thought it unreliable. I agree about folders, which is why I opted to pay the subscription

Replace the os with what?

How do you arrive at effective monopolies are going out the window, squaring it with what we see in the world today which runs counter.

I've been using sync.com for a couple of years now for my large music files storage and playback. Thinking of going all in on the unlimited plan to add on all my family files. Curious what your experience is with delayed syncing. Occasionally I find something just doesn't sync to the cloud and I have to play about with PC on/off, connect to Mobile hotspot, clear cache etc to get it to work. Makes me wonder if that's happening with files where I don't realize it until it's too late.

Basically, how robust is it for you?

wagoner ,

We created a WordPress (installed on our server) blog which requires logins we have to approve. We share this with family members, with an email notification to them when something new is posted. They can post comments to the site.

We really actually did this for ourselves, as a kind of family photo album/blog, and so would have it even if no one else was invited :-)
