$8 mil is pocket change for the investors. It's like eight dudes all giving their bro $100 for his art project.

The HOMES mnemonic is now SHAME.

(I'm sure some lib on bluesky figured this out before me)

I think its false, therefore its misinformation.

You're calling me lazy when you don't post your own sources? You're getting offended by me simple asking "and where did you here this?"

At the heart of the NetNut residential proxy service was the Popa botnet, an engineered stealth communications layer. By embedding deceptive software development kits into inexpensive, off-brand Android-based smart TVs, streaming media boxes and unofficial apps like the SmartTube client, NetNut hijacked ordinary home electronics.

When consumers plugged in these devices, their home internet connections were quietly rented out as residential proxy exit nodes. This allowed malicious traffic to route through legitimate domestic IP addresses, effectively bypassing standard data center blocks and security filters.

AFAIK the only thing illegal about this is they didn't bother with TOS agreements.

I still can't get over how the only fine tuning you can do for an LLM is yell at it with markdown files. We should be able to retrain local models so they can develop an actual experience without prefilling the context.

CPU barely detected (programming.dev)
submitted 9 months ago by sudo@programming.dev to c/buildapc@lemmy.world

I recently swapped motherboards between two builds. One went well but the other is being very finicky with detecting the CPU. Right now its laying on its side like a beached whale with the left side panel open. The heatsink is simply sitting on the CPU, no mounts, no fans. Sometimes I can strap the heatsink down, stand up the box, and close the case, but never with the fans on. Its like that's too much weight and some connection is broken. Is anyone familiar with this problem?

I had this issue previously with a different motherboard and fixed it by using a stock heatsink. But this is a fairly simple CoolerMaster 212. Its not massive. I feel like its a problem with the board or the socket.

More details: when uninstalled the old motherboard in this build, it had the same CM212 heatsink in it. When I removed that heatsink the CPU (Ryzen 5700) came out with it to my horror. Neither that CPU or that motherboard are in this build though. But that CPU was supposed it be. It did have bent pins and I did try to install it before discovering the bent pins. After straightening them the CPU still didn't work so i switched to an old Ryzen 1600, which is currently being finicky. Maybe I damaged the motherboard socket?

If you want a sample of how crazy Chinese history can get look at the Tai Ping rebellion:

  • Student fails Civil Servant Exam for the third time and has a mental breakdown
  • starts claiming he's Jesus' little brother who trained him to fight demons in his dreams
  • more dead than WWI

In Germany, we have the Clearingstelle Urheberrecht im Internet (CUII) - literally 'Copyright Clearinghouse for the Internet', a private organization that decides what websites to block, corporate interests rewriting our free internet. No judges, no transparency, just a bunch of ISPs and major copyright holders deciding what your eyes can see.

This is worse than whatever the UK is doing IMO.

For the record: numerous women have spoke out against Trump for sexual misconduct while underaged. All the named ones are from Miss America or Miss Universe competitions. A couple of Epstein's victims have filed charges against Trump too but those remain anonymous.

Because then the US any every other IAEA signatory would be obligated to sanction Israel which would be the end of Israel's economy.

No news media dares mention it because they have no proof and would both loose any insider access and get buried in libel cases.

+3,000 student athletes in The A-Team. And yes it went horribly wrong. Some students started unionizing immediately.

"Then you go out in the field, and the first ray of sun comes over the horizon. The first ray. Everyone looked at each other, and said, 'What did we do?' The thermometer went up like in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. By 9 a.m., it was 110 degrees."

Garden gloves that the farmers gave the students to help them harvest lasted only four hours, because the cantaloupe's fine hairs made grabbing them feel like "picking up sandpaper."

The farmers sheltered them in "any kind of defunct housing," according to Carter — old Army barracks, rooms made from discarded wood, and even buildings used to intern Japanese-Americans during World War II.

Jayapal said one plan is to propose a raft of executive orders President Biden could issue to "protect existing structures," such as shielding career civil servants and Justice Department officials.

Yes! Good!

Some Democrats are also sensitive to the perception that they are adopting the tactics of Republican state legislators who used their supermajorities to kneecap incoming Democratic governors.

Fucking gauge my eyeballs out. You can't call them fascists and then object to playing dirty against them.

"We're trying to show how the United States is supposed to conduct itself every four years when a new person takes over the reins of government," said Cleaver.

McConnell denied Obama a Supreme court appointment! The precedent is already set! Your norms are already broken!

If democrats want to win they must purge their own ranks of members like Cleaver and rebuild with more Jayapals or else they will keep ceding grounds to fascists.

I start my coding workspaces in tmux sessions which persist when I log out. If I switch from a wayland session to an x11 session, then my copy and paste functionality in those neovim sessions are broken because it's still trying to use wl-copy. To be more precise:

  1. Start a wayland session.
  2. Open a terminal and start a tmux session.
  3. Open neovim and do some work.
  4. Log out of wayland, log into an X11 environment
  5. Open a terminal and reconnect to the tmux session
  6. "+y broken. clipboard: error invoking wl-copy: Failed to connect to a Wayland server...

Restarting neovim isn't sufficient. I have to restart the entire tmux session or switch back to wayland. Is there some short cut I can take here?

The analysis revealed that the Debian Linux configuration was not included in their test matrix.

You might as well say you don't support Linux.

"Crowdstrike's model seems to be 'we push software to your machines any time we want, whether or not it's urgent, without testing it'," lamented the team member.

I wonder how this shit works on NixOS.

Everything I read says it's a feature enabled in what ever compositor you choose, if your compositor supports it. Why isn't there a general purpose keybinding program like setxkbmap? Does it just not exist yet or must it be built into the compositor?

I've read [this stackexchange thread] on something related but it all seems to be using XKB which should imply I'm using XWayland?
