You might want to consider that backups only protect very old data from ransomware.

Ransomware works by getting on a machine and sitting for several months before activating. During that time, your data is encrypted but you don’t know because when you open a file, your computer decrypts it and shows you what you expect to see. So your backups are working but are saving files that will be lost once the ransom ware activates.

The only solution is to frequently manually verify the backup from a known safe computer. Years ago I looked for something to automate this but didn’t find it. (Something like a raspberry pi with no Internet that can only see the PC it’s testing, compares a known file, then touches the file so it gets backed up again.)

I’m an idiot. I looked at only the large text and completely missed the small text.

Ok, I’ve read it many times, took a break read it again and still don’t get it.

Just because you can break RSA doesn’t mean you instantly get access to all private databases.

Encryption by itself isn’t important. You know all those big company data leaks that seem to happen every month? That data was very likely encrypted. But it doesn’t matter because when you control a computer, you can see the encryption keys being used and decrypt whatever is stored.

What does it do that you can’t get by typing something into the chatgpt website?

I don’t know where the 20 million comes from Estimates are 4000 qbits for RSA 2028.

We can’t have access to these things now, but we used to.

??? There was no change. It was always illegal. This was a petition to change it to be legal and the petition was denied.

Despite it being illegal, Internet Archive has hosted and I hope will continue to host rom collections like tiny best set go.

Agi and LLM are two different things that fall under the general umbrella term “AI”.

That a particular LLM can’t be censored doesn’t say anything about its abilities.

If you are bothered by those complaints, try Arch.

50% of the US wants Trump. I have no doubt that 50% would sign up for Musky credit.

Physical rentals are still legal. This is only about the legality of online rom downloads.

My kernel panics in fear of Blue Screen syndrome.

Starting off with an insult, nice.

“claimed” ??? As if I’m making up a story because I’m being paid by Sam Altman?

“Trusting their future to hallucinating”

My sales support engineering friend of course didn’t just copy whatever chatgpt wrote. He proofread it and fixed it. It still saved hours over starting from nothing and then still needing to proofread.

I SAID IT WON’T THINK FOR YOU.

I’m not sure what you are trying to get out of AI? Therapy?

I used it to help write an Excel script for my wife because I didn’t want to learn VBScript. It worked amazingly. I’ve talked to other programmers who have done the same. Another friend won a multi million dollar contract with a bid where chatgpt filled in all the boilerplate saving him hours of work.

AI is a time saver like a pocket calculator. It’s not going to think for you. But the productivity gains are real.

It’s impossible to specifically target Facebook and Snapchat without also affecting Lemmy and YouTube comments.

They’re all social media with minor UI differences.

What if my mental problems come from fighting Windows?

Yes, that’s exactly my opinion on the subject. ( I realize this is a contentless reply but I didn’t want you to think I downvoted you.)

Replace LLM with a person. If it was a person editing your work, does it make it plagiarism?

A common proofreading technique is to give your work to another person to read and make comments. That’s not plagiarism.

It doesn’t matter what the LLM license states. Replace the LLM with a person doing exactly what the LLM does and ask yourself if it is plagiarism.

If I do your homework for you and I say, “Because you prompted me with the questions, the answers belong to you.” That isn’t a free ‘get out of plagiarism card’ for you. What I tell you isn’t relevant.

It’s not gray at all.

Edit: that’s weird. I got a personal message but the reply showed up here.

Yes but that could be added in a W10 update just like they’ve already done with previous W10 updates.
