Remember when you just needed to count teeth to detect AI images? Those were good times.

Most of the jobs I’ve gotten were through friends I made at uni. Thanks to my education, I’m capable and skilled, but the friend network I made at school has gotten me in for interviews.

According to my sister-in-law’s then boyfriend (who was a biologist or an insect guy or something), spiders and insects can have lung-line organs called book lungs. So they have options. Creepy buggy insecty options.

Words would be so much easier to understand.

A thirty-something woman was trick or treating at my town’s trunk or treat. She’d put effort into her costume. 🤷‍♂️

The campaign is ongoing and Microsoft tracked emails “sent to thousands of targets in over 100 organizations.” The emails contained configuration files for Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) that are connected to servers controlled by the hackers.

…

Even security keys and point of sale devices could be affected by opening the RDP attachment. The access would allow hackers to install malware, map the victim’s network, install other tools and gain access to credentials.

…

The campaign was particularly noteworthy because the use of RDP configuration files was a novel advancement in Midnight Blizzard’s tactics. Microsoft noted that both Amazon and the Government Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine have seen similar activity.

I’m surprised that using RDP is novel for spear phishing, but Microsoft knows more about it than I do.

That’s a great recommendation. I tried Paprika and a couple of others. Paprika is winning so far.

I’ll give it a shot. Thanks!

Thanks! I’ll take a look!

But it gets the spirit right

I remember getting these for games. They were awesome, but they never fit my keyboard.

Some examples

In this example, the speaker said, “as the um, the, her father dies not too long after he remarried….” while the program transcribes that as " It’s fine. It’s just too sensitive to tell. She does die at 65….”

In this example, the speaker said, “and after she got the telephone he began to pray” while the program transcribes that as “I feel like I’m going to fall. I feel like I’m going to fall, I feel like I’m going to fall….”

It’s feature complete, but there are bugs.

Yeah. As much as I like Sync, I’m envious of aeharding’s constant improvements to Voyager.

Lemmy is substantially less combative.

That may depend on the community.

I have the opposite experience. I mostly post in niche communities on Reddit, and I find I’m ignored or get positive replies. On Lemmy I get responses, but odds are even that the response is snarky or bitchy.

I hope that will improve as the user base grows and we get more niche communities here.

I really enjoy Sync.

I was using Voyager until Sync got ported over to Lemmy. Voyager is great, but I find Sync more responsive. I also really appreciate Sync’s appearance customization. I’m old, so I like cranking the size of some text.

I think there’s an ad supported version of Sync if you want to try it. I paid the CDN$10 or whatever it cost on release. It’s worth it to me.

You could have seeded nonsense into Google any time in the past nearly 3 decades because that’s how all of this works

That’s the SEO arms race. Ad peddlers have been creating sites to bump up their Page Rank, and Google has been adding secret sauce to detect and deprioritize them.

The difference is that Google over prioritized Reddit pages, trusting Reddit’s updoots. Google now needs to find other signals to determine if a Reddit post is as valuable as the updoots suggest.

Their best simply wasn’t good enough.

Phew
