Won’t this cause subtle but serious issue? Kinda like how pomegranate translates to “granada” in Spanish, but when you translate “granada” back to English it translates to grenade?
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Stupid question but is it possible to get a virus from an MKV file.English62·1 year agoEvery once in a while security researchers would discover sophisticated exploits that would allow malwares to take over your computer via multimedia files, but those are actually rarely exploited in the wild by run off the mill malwares.
Unless you’re an important person being targeted by hackers and three letter agencies, your biggest source of threat is running infected programs from untrusted sources, e.g. cracks downloaded from random torrents or warez sites, shady sites serving ads that trick you to run some executables, etc.
How do you sanitize ai prompts? With more prompts?
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: lemmy.ml is managed by tankies, and lead lemmy developer is a tankie3·1 year agoLemmy has a lot more contributors and eyes digging into its codebase now compared to 2021 so I think this is very unlikely to happen.
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: lemmy.ml is managed by tankies, and lead lemmy developer is a tankie646·1 year agoI may not agree with the devs political view, but I think their work developing lemmy is excellent and made me subscribe to monthly donation on opencollective. Lemmy is an open source project where the devs have absolutely no say over how the software being used, as evidenced by so many lemmy instances defederating from lemmygrad and lemmy.ml. Their political belief won’t affect other instance.

Some even packaged with Wine so it can run on different platforms. The real problem would be emulating current modern graphic stacks but that would be future preservists’ problem.

If we fire all developers and allow AIs to program themselves, the AIs are going to commit virtual seppuku after a few days.

redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto Memes@lemmy.ml•Oh tell me again how it loads faster and takes up less resources112·1 year agoI’m more concerned with Mozilla spending its meager resources to chase some fads instead of focusing on improving firefox.
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto Memes@lemmy.ml•Oh tell me again how it loads faster and takes up less resources9·1 year agoGoogle does that a lot with their own web properties. I remember Google Meet didn’t support background replacement on Firefox, but switching Firefox’s user agent to Chrome suddenly fixed it.
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto Memes@lemmy.ml•Oh tell me again how it loads faster and takes up less resources131·1 year agoIt seems Mozilla is not immune to the AI hype. I just hope their AI endeavour won’t kill them when the AI hype finally ends.
redcalcium@lemmy.instituteto Memes@lemmy.ml•Oh tell me again how it loads faster and takes up less resources27·1 year agoIt used to be a lot slower, which is why when Chrome showed up with its shiny new V8 engine (and other features) people switched from Firefox en masse. Now the performance difference is no longer noticeable.

An important context that’s missing from the blog post is Keivan Beigi is one of the core contributor of Sonarr, a popular app in the *arr scene. Microsoft probably realized it late after offering him a job, got cold feet and ghost him.
I only just realized my previous comment formatted like total ass
No problem since there is a “view source” button on lemmy which show the comment in its original formatting.
What do you mean? Can’t you see all those innovations in the ads and tracking industry?
