BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Wiki Wars: Editors and propagandists are fighting for influence over the online encyclopedia’s most controversial entriesEnglish5·3 days agoWhat a garbage article.
ADL is a propaganda machine, not a reliable source. https://truthout.org/articles/its-time-to-break-with-the-adl-as-a-source-for-news-and-research-on-extremism/
They will just make a law against it then. UK surveillance powers increased exponentially recently.
Well that’s a good way to permanently lose me as a customer.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Meta could take a $7 billion hit this year because of Trump's tough China tariffsEnglish3·9 days agoYou’re not wrong, but the loses are also real. While they will personally come out ahead in the end that’s what capitalism is designed to do, the company workforce will shirnk as a result.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•4chan Is Dead. Its Toxic Legacy Is EverywhereEnglish501·9 days agoMost likely lack of resources. The codebase of the site is so old that it needs a complete rebase, which is a time consuming task. Relaunching without fixing the oustanding flaws is not really an option.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Meta could take a $7 billion hit this year because of Trump's tough China tariffsEnglish21·9 days agoIt’s kind of ironic that Facebook paid to avoid “regulators and fines” and got biggest “fine” in their history instead.
I really hope it will not be based in the US where law is dead and where IRS at the command of executive can remove non-profit status. That would defeat all the stated goals in the press release.
Small copies of existing technologies aren’t novelty nor innovation.
Well, this just shows your ignorance on the subject. The biggest irony is that you probably don’t even know when you use some EU innovation since they aggressively promote open research, so it’s not hiding behind a patent to be abused to by a single greedy corporation…
Until someone accuses you of using it “not the allowed way” and without any proof suspends your education. She lost her scholarship over an AI allegation — and it impacted her mental health
EU has been for a long time investing in innovation and supporting open source development. Lemmy for one is partially funded by EU funds…
The issue is an economic centrism which dominates the EU governance so while there are plenty EU supported and developed alternatives they are not used. But as much as hate LLMs it seems that was the push required for EU to reconsider their approach. Combine that with the friends turning into foes and the future tech sector in the EU looks bright.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Your next phone could have a 10km Bluetooth connectionEnglish4·20 days agoThe Bluetooth standard uses maximum power as a requirement for classification not range. So if they manage to not exceed the power limit of class 1 it would be valid.
So the whole stock market is a scam just like crypto? Fake money goes up and fake money goes down.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Starlink competition is ramping up in UkraineEnglish3·25 days agoIt’s possible. Now that EU-Mercosur trade deal is signed it makes a lot more sense from EU business perspective.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•SignalGate Is Driving the Most US Downloads of Signal EverEnglish34·1 month agoSignal would still be my recommendation for most people.
Less user friendly options would be SimpleX, Session.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•This watchdog is tracking how AI firms are quietly backing off their safety pledgesEnglish7·1 month agoThe corrupt idiots who kept saying that pledges are good enough, no need to regulate anyone - eat shit.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Technology@lemmy.zip•You know that generative AI browser assistant extension is probably beaming everything to the cloud, right?English91·1 month agoForget “if the product is free”. You are a product even if you pay subscriptions these days. They still track all your activity and then sell it or use it to train AI models that they will make you pay for again.
That is not entirely correct. They have the final say in determining what that is, but anyone can declare something unconstitutional based on prior Supreme Court decisions.
The whole US federal legal system is based on that since you first need to get a judgment in trial court, then appeal and only then you can get to the Supreme Court (in 99.99% cases as there are narrow exceptions).
