• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is behind the current Lemmy meme about 4 being a private key?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I just dont understand why they would do this? Putting so shitty key is like they wanted to make it as insecure as possible. Even if the ones responsible were criminally stupid, they still should have understood that this is like leaving the whole thing unlocked.

  And for such critical thing. Imagine if this wasnt discovered like this but instead by some competent malicious actor that had resources to coordinate some large scale attack and kept it hidden until just the right moment when they can strike at everything.

  I also dont understand how little outrage there even is about this, we were really close to huge catastrophe. Or maybe i have misunderstood the severity of what happened.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA: Ruin Everything⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  When they got sold to ea, this was the only possible outcome anyway. Not sure if they sold out or ea did some corporate bullshit to force them to it, but they should have stayed away from ea if they wanted to keep making games.

  But people are still doing it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did Google win the search engine war?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  i think some part of it is people themselves using word google as synonyme for search. And in general acting as if google was only search engine in existence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alright I want to adress the AI moding because people don't understand how anything works and their is a needless panic. No AI won't replace modding.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  ai wont definitely replace modding. Vibe"coders" wont have any idea what the llm churned up for them so they will have no idea how to keep it updated, improve it or generally do anything at all with the generated content. Maybe the llm can do something if prompted, but it will just mess things up slowly. I noticed this effect when i tried to make some scripts, the llm would slowly lose the plot as it “comes up” with its own brilliant ideas on how to do what i tell it to do, then it hungs up on those ideas further on and everything just becomes a big mess. Only way i could keep at least some sense in it was by copypasting the entire code for it on every prompt and that is not very sustainable. Maybe things have improved, havent cared to use llm much for long time now.

  But there is another facet to all this, if we dont keep showing distain towards slop people who dont know better will start thinking its okay and vast majority of people really dont know better. And should that happen, it will make things worse by devaluing actual work people put in. What people think shapes the world. So there is still some danger of llm taking things from us, but at least we can still do something about it. Just dont go rabid and blindly hate anything llm related as it will just discredit proper critics by association and actually support the slop.

  though i’m convinced certain people cant distinguish between generic uninspired crap and good content. How else would there be this much people that use generated content? Though that is what you get when you are not exposed good stuff most of your life, you dont develop any standards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just temporarily embarrassed billionaires, one good idea or lottery ticket from making it rich⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish i knew, peaceful ways dont seem to do anything and violent ways can easily give the oppressors more excuses to make things worse, at least if you dont have good plans. At least it might lessen americas grip on the rest of the world.

  Though then again, has any non-demoratic country succesfully turned things around? I dont really know if this is uncharted territory.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just temporarily embarrassed billionaires, one good idea or lottery ticket from making it rich⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  if its really majority then things would improve, no? Politcans would get elected that make these things happen?

  Or if that majority is powerless to do anything, then they should cry out that america is not democracy so loudly that other countrys couldnt ignore it, provided that this majority actually cares and doesnt just wish things were better but conform with the regime and choose ignorance.

  Talk is cheap, actions are what matter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do non-English speakers learn to code in English, or in their native language?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  much easier to look for guidance for coding in english instead of my native language, syntax makes more sense too. Though personally i would wish more stuff was properly translated into finnish instead of english slowly gnawing at it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you explain like I am a child terrorism without the whole good vs evil schtik? My sister in laws kid asked me about it. He is 9.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  but if some group targets non-civilian targets, they will be labeled terrorists just the same. Doesnt matter if they are justified or not, unless of course the target is someone global leaders dont like.

  “unauthorized violence” seems more apt definition.

  maybe it works kind of like how water works. Water also sticks to itself, like how separate droplets combine very fast when close enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Former Valve writer says PlayStation killing physical discs is no conspiracy: "You, the consumer, have made your choice, and the choice is for digital"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  well, having a physical disk doesnt guarantee ownership. companies can still leave critical things off the disk and require you to download them when you install, or there can be some verification system. And if corporation servers go down, you still cant use it.

  What we need is all the files and data we buy to be fully functional and not behind any encryption or other gate, be it digital or physical. Then make your own physical media of it or back it up whereever you want.
