The US/Israel would never do such a thing, buy UniFi/Fortinet/Palo Alto!

Toothpaste brand/variant, by and large, doesn't matter.

There is over 30 different variants of Colgate Toothpaste, do dentist believe ALL the Colgate ones are better than the alternatives?

"CS2 is infested with hackers" is either cope OR you have low trust factor.

Yes, but the problem is highly exaggerated and Counter Strike has multiple mechanisms for isolating or preventing cheaters, even outside of "traditional" anti-cheat tooling.

I play at moderately high elo in Counter Strike (Faceit Level 10, 25k Premier) in a lesser populated region and even Valve matchmaking is mostly fine. I have a multi-thousand dollar inventory, old Steam account and over 7,000 hours in Counter Strike, all of these things (likely) impact my trust factor.

Trust Factor doesn't detect cheaters, but it sure does expose me to way way less cheaters. It's pretty uncommon to see an obvious cheater in CS2, the number of closet cheaters likely increased. In CS:GO rage cheaters were more common, but they are (for the most part) detected a little bit better now.

Wearing a seatbelt or not doesn't also prevent a family getting killed, yet its strict in cars, but not on bikes? What gives?

Until you realize these aren't isolated systems. This is one of the 30 different sensors used to monitor drivers.

If you cut a wire, expect the car company + insurance company to become aware of the "mod" you did. Expect the car to simply not start anymore. Expect the local authorities to be notified.

We need to stop this nonsense at the legislation level, not after the fact.

I'm 21 years old, I'm driving a 2010 car with the intention to keep driving it for at least another few years (well over 200,000km).

I service it every 5,000 to 7,500km. I drive decently aggressive though. I'm scared that I'll never get to drive a "cool" car in my life. The future is grim and new cars are just NSA spyware with annoying beeps.

I think I'll honestly kill myself before I have to sit in a modern car with a "driver monitor camera".

To play devils advocate, Steam has one of the most generous sharing functionality on all digital media. Steam Families.

The whole "we prohibit transferring accounts from dead people" is likely just a catchall to prevent liability and responsibility when people say "oh my brother cheated on my account" or "my brother said XYZ on Steam forums".

Any word on 'A' (Education) licenses?

A1/A2/A3?

Meta did, numerous Meta IP's appeared in the torrent swarms.

The problem with using the torrents is they are slow, most of the larger sets have <3 seeders, with many dropping in and out, on home or slow connections. I would imagine other companies have learned from Meta's mistake and don't want to appear in the swarm either, which is why direct access is preferred. 100k for unlimited books access is nothing compared to the other costs these labs incur.

Anna's Archive likely profited immensely with all the AI labs creating models. They have a dedicated FTP for these companies.

Audio may feel easier to multitask with, but how much do you actually retain?

You can't even clone you garage door opener key anyway.

Flipper Zero and its clones have always been pseudohacker nonsense. Fun little party trick I suppose.

$50 AUD, with another $50 AUD DLC.

I would buy this game but $50 is a bit steep and it has effectively never gone on sale (at least not in the past 2 years).

ChatGPT Image 2 is genuinely insane.

I was surprised the internet didn't have a meltdown when it released.

Baidu has been doing some interesting things in the AI space though, the 'Unlimited OCR' model is very good.

GPT 5.6 exists, just not for you and me.

Everyone dislikes when these models are provided for use by the Department of Defense, but we can likely assume these newer, more capable models are being used by the NSA, FBI, CIA and other Five Eyes agencies to develop more backdoors, hack into more things to spy on us all.

We get drip fed the weaker models, but only once all the 0days have been used against us.

I occasionally listen to Drum n Bass & House music on YouTube. Just a few years ago a number of compilations, artists and playlists were made with the tagging of "PS2 Ambiance" or "PS2 D&B to Relax to", etc.

Most of these were either:

1. Legitimate music from the PS2 era games. 2. Music which could of easily been included in the games of the era.

I constantly see "PS2 Jungle Mix" and its AI, or entirely by one guy (which I assume is AI?).

This type of music is my background music whilst playing a game, or just chilling because it has no lyrics to be distracted by. It doesn't really matter all that much if its AI or not, but I still find myself filtering by uploads from a few years ago to avoid the slop.
