1·1 month agoSo the company was aware but I was wondering on whether it was public knowledge released today or it was released back then but no one paid attention.
Also the report says that they don’t believe it is a nation state actor because it doesn’t match with any known malicious clusters but it’s likely that countries have multiple unknown clusters they can test with if necessary.
I was more thinking about all the services that rely on internet access to function. Like most economic systems would basically crash or grind to a halt.
There are a lot of products that don’t really need to be connected to the internet to do their job but are being connected anyways and would get bricked if access to the internet didn’t work. For example internet connected security cameras that don’t have cables connecting to where the data is being stored would be shot as well.
I mean the extent of the damage is really dependent on how the malware was spread which we don’t know yet so still mostly speculation on how damaging it could be.
So the attack happened in October 2023 but it was only revealed to the public now? Or is it that it was public back then but people didn’t pay attention?
Also the part where they say it has only ever happened as a precursor to a military invasion sort makes me think that this attack was some nation state practicing or signalling what they would do if they were in active cyber warfare which would be bad for the world if people in the competing nations didn’t have internet access, even if it was only for a day or two.
It is the exploitation that’s wrong. That goes for animals as well as plants. If we can avoid that then things would be a lot better
I’d go for a SearXNG instance, since its a meta search engine, its gonna work unless all other search engines shut down.
Also nice benefit of being FOSS and of no charge.
I just read your profile and can’t believe you guys have been on lemmy for 3 years. What made you guys join before lemmy got popular?
Your comment inspired me and I just finished moving over. So thx.
From what I understood after I watched it and looked into it a bit more is that individuals have roles within the organization and are able to decide their own actions on how to fulfill that role. The actions are informed by the collective understanding of their goals and norms that are formed during their frequent meetings (which are very different in vibes from regular corporate meetings).
This is how I understood it works for most decisions but there a few decisions that fall back on voting which after the vote occurs the individuals are expected to carry out whatever was voted on.
So like it says in the video it is a largely informal structure but one that seems to work very well.
I don’t know I think that it is giving a bit to much credit to these organizations. Yes they are big and powerful but they are still run by humans who both give these organizations their power and also are the weakest links of most organizations.
This is why most new systems don’t come into power until the old ones become weak enough. Like capitalism was a thing during the times of feudalism for many years without necessarily replacing the main system but eventually as feudalism and the monarchy grew weaker eventually capitalism and meritocracy in some sense won out.
I mention this because yeah I agree that some sort of push back and fighting is going to be necessary but that alone isn’t going to be the main driving force. The external conditions also need to be ripe and to me it seems like we are on the verge of something new occurring.
couldn’t they get that with a regular computer?
what use would a regular citizen have for a quantum computer?
If kagi is just an aggregate of other search engines why not just use a searx instance instead? Its open source and customizable.
No it’s not doing anything about injustice that is making the world as fucked up as it is today. And that isn’t happening because we are being disempowered.
This is ai generated.
You know if you want to do something more effective than just putting copyright at the end of your comments you could try creating an adversarial suffix using this technique. It makes any LLM reading your comment begin its response with any specific output you specify (such as outing itself as a language model or calling itself a chicken).
It gives you the code necessary to be able to create it.
There are also other data poisoning techniques you could use just to make your data worthless to the AI but this is the one I thought would be the most funny if any LLMs were lurking on lemmy (I have already seen a few).
It seems like he removed the ad read from the video. So I’m guessing he was taking the criticism to heart.
Yeah quite a few of his videos feel like that.
The content is good but then comes the ad read being read with the same enthusiasm as the video which just makes the video feel insincere.
I was able to solve the problem. Instead of downloading it from the Software Manager I installed it from the terminal instead.
When I installed it from the software manager it didn’t download one of the packages (org.gnome.platform/44) but when I did it from the terminal it did.
Thx though.
Edit: Yeah it was a flatpak.
