Ich fände es gut, wenn solche Themen endlich mal angesprochen wird. Generell finde ich, dass das Thema mitsamt anderen relevanten Themen über Einsamkeit und Kontakt für sensiblen Themen schon längst überfällig ist, da die Gefahren vom Netz bekannt sind, aber oftmals öffentlich zugängliche Informationen sich mehr an Eltern und Ansprechpartner richtet statt direkt an Jugendliche. Es hilft auch nicht, dass diese Materialien wie Klicksafe heute weniger bekannt sind. (Ich kann mich nur an das Ding wegen der lächerlichen Werbung von 2005 erinnern.)

How do you play the missions? Generally I usually have almost enough for the next warbond after I maxed out the last one. I did hear that this struggle usually happens when people don’t look for POIs, which also results in resources always being rather slow to accumulate.

Overall, the game encourages to not beeline for primary objectives and rather plan out a route, especially for side objectives, as they can often be further away. It does help a lot that crashed resource drops (or what they are called) have a beacon that flashes higher the further away you are from them.

I think it can be both. However they are no justification as to why one should buy and like a game they clearly won’t like for various reasons. Even more, trying to “fix” a game can alter the game’s impact on the player. There’s a reason why roguelikes/roguelites are so hard, and taking away the difficulty will lessen the experience. That’s why most people also, for example, won’t use cheating tools for their single player games apart from screwing around.

Honestly, I think that this was a horrid read. It felt so unfocused, shallow and at times contradictory.

For example, at the top it talked about how software implementation has the highest adoption rate while code review/acceptance has the lowest, yet it never really talks about why that is apart from some shallow arguments (which I will come back later), or how to integrate AI more there.

And it never reached any depth, as any topic only gets grazed shortly before moving to the next, to the point where the pitfalls of overuse of AI (tech debt, security issues, etc.) are mentioned, twice, with no apparent acknowledgement of its former mention, and never mentioned how these issues get created nor show any examples.

And what I think is the funniest contradiction is that from the start, including the title, the article pushes for speed, yet near the end of the article, it discourages this thinking, saying that pushing dev teams for faster development will lead to corner cutting, and that for a better AI adoption one shouldn’t focus on development speed. Make up your damn mind before writing the article!

Ich Stimme zu, dass das “einfachste” Indiz bei den Beispielen die Stimme ist. Hier kommt es oft zu Stimmverzerrungen, die stark nach Dekodierfehler klingen, aber nur die Stimme betreffen.

Was auch auffällt sind Hintergrundcharakter. Ein gutes Beispiel ist die falsche Autoexpo. Wenn man die Szenen mit dem Mann mit dem Kinderwagen genauer ansieht, sind die Posen vom Mann und Kinderwagen immer sehr ähnlich. Des weiteren verhält sich der Mann sehr ungewöhnlich. Menschen verhalten sich sehr eigenartig wenn sie wissen, dass sie gefilmt werden, und man merkt dass sie oftmals achtsam die Kamera ignorieren während sie dennoch Aufmerksamkeit der Kamera geben. Teilweise schnelle Bewegungen durch die Anspannung, was die KI immer noch schlecht imitieren kann.

Generell ist die beste Strategie skeptisch zu Medien zu sein und die Inhalte zu hinterfragen.

Quick question about the overwrite passes: is it overwritten with random numbers or is there a sequence of passes?

Is there a benefit from this over the inbuilt Secure Erase functionality in most SSDs/NVMEs? To my knowledge, it instantly dumps the current from all cells, emptying the data on it.

Furthermore, another issue with SSDs/NVMEs is that it automatically excludes bad blocks, meaning that classic read/write operations can’t even reach those blocks anyways. Theoretically that feature could also be used against you to preserve the data on the disk by marking all blocks as bad, rendering them as inaccessible by the file system.

Of course there’s also the issue of Secure Erase not being implemented properly in some drives, leading to the bad blocks not being touched by the hardware chip during that procedure.

Apparently, Electronic Arts out of all companies has made a similar open source tool 4 years ago: https://github.com/electronicarts/Tunable-Colorblindness-Solution

Honestly, Sailfish is only worth it if you have a license, as there are very few native apps and the android compatibility layer is the only way to have a proper daily driver phone. I did try it with the Sony Xperia X II a 1-2 years ago, and honestly, it was still very buggy.

Generally, GrapheneOS ia pretty much the best privacy-focused android version you can have, as it will strip away anything that’s related to google while focusing on a small amount of supported devices to ensure that not many vulnerabilities are possible on the devices.

LimeageOS are less focused on privacy and more about availability. /e/OS is pretty much a downstream of LineageOS focused on Fairphones. Generally a good choice if you want android without google services.

Funnily enough, AFAIK this is also reflected in the total webpages on the internet. There is an extraordinary amount of German webpages compared to other non-english ones.

EDIT: Third most used language, after English and Spanish.

While it is correct, it doesn’t justify any and all the shady stuff Brave Software Inc. has done.

Maybe you thought of this old picture?:

One of the reviews on Steam mentioned that the AI uses NVidia tech that isn’t available on AMD graphics cards. Is that true?

Scanners like to do funny things

I know it’s not very relevant, but that reminds me of a talk held during a CCC (Chaos Computer Club) convention.

It’s in German, but I’ll try to summarize it: Someone noticed the numbers on a scanned page didn’t match the original, so they hired an expert to find out what happened. Turns out that the printer they were using had a feature that would detect symbols that looked the same and basically copypasted ome cutout of the symbol onto the other to save space on the final PDF. Due to the print/copy quality, this substitution sometimes malfunctioned, substituting similar looking symbols, such as 8 and 0.

While that is true, logging into your OS can also be done via 2FA, namely via a smartcard. It’d offer a similar protection to it, if not better.

Uncommon speech patterns and behaviours. People with ASD are more likely to be suspected to be lying when they are telling the truth, due to avoidance of eye contact, lower stress threshold, talking about unnecessary tangents that seem unrelated to the topic and uncommon stress reactions like fawning.

Fun fact: those gas station pills also contain Viagra, to make sure they work.

So, just buy Viagra instead. You’ll be safer.

Honestly, due to how it’s a paid app, I don’t see any viable mass adoption. Possibly great for a professional/corporate setting, but considering that Signal is free and some people already have a hard time leaving WhatsApp, it’d be hard to convince anyone to pay for a messaging app.
