I think that’s a very big stretch and I don’t think we’ll see that any time soon. Microsoft is already losing market share and they can’t do much more of this type of stuff because more and more people are getting annoyed. (Including ones with a following such as PewDiePie)
Anyways, Linux is great.
I have done translations and even for my own language I often use an LLM. It’s the one thing they are actually amazing at. It’s also probably not about “anybody noticing”. It can very much be a single developer doing it on their own ChatGPT account and the QA didn’t notice it.
I really don’t care about this stuff though. The AI label should be for gen AI and not revising some text or translation imo.
You realize this’ll occur at the expense of Microsoft treating the user as an untrustworthy enemy.
What do you mean? Take away your ability to create drivers? Because it’s already extremely limited and you need to get signed. I guess this “change” would just mean not signing any new antivirus drivers.
This means modding (even for offline play) will not be allowed. Heck, even modify ini files might be viewed as “hacking”.
That’s a completely wrong take. Whether or not an anticheat runs in the kernel or not does not mean people can just go and edit their files. Even with a kernel level anticheat people can already do that if the driver is not running. The correct way is to do purity checks during connection to an online server, and only allow serverside code to update the gamestate. Any texture file hacks and local purity bypasses for those would need to be caught by the userland anticheat, like it has been done for ages. Not the best solution, but far more privacy friendly.
I agree removing the need for anti-cheat in principal sounds nice, but this means archiving games or porting them to “unsupported platforms” will be relics of the past.
Another weird take. Are you talking about the anticheat not being installable anymore? Because even if a game comes with a kernel level anticheat it would need a valid certificate, so any dead game would eventually have this problem regardless of it being allowed to install the driver. Porting games would in almost all cases get rid of the anticheat or somehow null it, disable any custom servers from forcing a valid anticheat, stuff like that. And archiving would be much easier without any anticheat at all, again regardless of kernel anticheat or userland anticheat.
MUCH better solutions against hacker are to use all this amazing machine learning stuff on the server side, put more power back into the hands of admins and their selfhosted servers, and handle reports about hackers better and faster.
I guess the trick is to not look for stuff to host because you’ll end up with all kinds of things you weren’t doing in the first place.
Well it’s a 70 times improvement so the developer gets a 70 times bonus. Or at least all the money that would be wasted without this fix.
Or is the world unfair and are developers nowadays just cogs in a capitalistic machine?
Too old? I don’t know this term.
Because Plex used to be good but new it’s just pure enshitification.
Upload 5 million pictures of people with 4 fingers instead of 5.
VNC to the rescue.
a fucking llm can see it based on description alone.
Even Copilot says it’s not good:
“is it smart to rename Remote Desktop (for Windows) to “Windows App”?”
That would probably create more confusion than clarity! “Remote Desktop” is a specific tool that allows users to access a different computer remotely, while “Windows App” is an incredibly broad name that could refer to any application running on Windows. If Microsoft were to rename it that way, people might struggle to understand its purpose at a glance.
10cm is long. don’t let anybody tell you otherwise
Dairy cows are impregnated around 7 times so they can be milked. Most of their calves are used for veal.
Cows are known to cry and wail when their calves are taken and killed.
It’s not like we can’t understand the screams and cries from livestock right now already…
Lmao.
As if my title isn’t almost exactly the same.
bcrypt hashes only the first 72 bytes. 24 characters is the max amount of 4 byte UTF8 characters when using bcrypt. Which is stupid because UTF8 is variable, but still, it’s a possible explanation.
but this in no way indicates clear text password storage.
It does.
No it doesn’t.
What an awful thing to say. Go question your motives.
That’s not true. There’s limits everywhere.
This.
They also have a form to submit AI crawlers.
CloudFlare can also easily maintain an anti AI crawler service completely by itself if it takes a fee on top of their pay per crawl functionality. However, considering CloudFlare already has all the tools and infrastructure to do this cheaply, providing a good service wouldn’t be too hard.
