  • Tech here, marrued to a dev, friends with several devs.

    LLM are shit coders. They are absolute eccological rapists and garbage vaporware for 90% of the uses people try to wedge them into.

    The capital investment for software is not extremely high. It’s standard wages and learned skill. IG was bought, cherry picked and twisted to suit meta’s data thieving desires. There are literally millions of people producing and sharing code and software for free just for shits snd giggles. GNU has been a very real thing for generations now.

    Also: gatekept tech knowledge is not required for the harmony of which you speak. People aren’t being excluded from a solarpunk utopia because they can’t write an app. All that is required is a willingness to put in the work to do things in a way less damaging - and using the slop commonly misnamed AI is the antithesis of that


  • It’s less ‘too much pc’ and more ‘purity politics’ imo

    There’s a great post on tumblr that really fuckin’ nailed it:

    “The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I’m not a trannie or a fag so I don’t care, just give 'em the medicine they need.”

    “This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility.”

    One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.

















  • A critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-47575) has been discovered in Fortinet’s FortiManager, and it is currently being actively exploited. This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass API authentication, enabling them to execute commands remotely and compromise managed devices. FortiManager is commonly used by organizations to manage multiple FortiGate firewalls, making this vulnerability especially dangerous for enterprises and Managed Service Providers (MSPs).

    TPN = Trusted Partner Network. Basically a big pile of wank that offers to make sure anyone handling content pretends to adhere to good IT practices and security so shit doesn’t get stolen
