lofaszvanitt··on How I Fight AI Brain Fry
Why people all of sudden try to behave like an octopus? Never understood this. Even if you use just one window, you are already much more productive than ever. This heavy multitasking will burn you out in no time.
lofaszvanitt··on Psalm 7 release: PHP security&static analysis software
Do some research :D.
lofaszvanitt··on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's letter to staff about affair
Nobody cares. Nothing will happen/change. Move on.

Use a class if you need them.
lofaszvanitt··on Nordstjernen, Northstar, Southstar: minimalist webbrowsers in C and Rust
I pray every night for a fast browser, because Chrome is getting slower and slower. And this fckd up sqlite implementation of history bookmarks etc is also a gargantuan fuckup. When you have multi year histories and gigantic amount of bookmarks, it is just ridiculously slow.

lofaszvanitt··on Fujifilm to boost tape production 5x as AI fuels archiving demand
Seems like a controlled market. Data storage needs an AI moment too :D.
lofaszvanitt··on Fujifilm to boost tape production 5x as AI fuels archiving demand
Ridiculous that there is no proper data archiving solution for the masses. Tapes... in 2026 at exorbitant prices. Blu ray taps out at 128GB, meh. The DVDs I wrote 20 years ago still perform well and each of them readable, so don't tell me there wouldn't be a market for this at proper prices.

Cloud backup is good until a new world war erupts since data centers are gonna be bombarded first.

What is going on with cerabyte?

lofaszvanitt··on Bitcoin Suisse CEO: Switzerland has lost interest in cryptocurrencies
Everyone, retreat. Nothing to see here :DDD.
lofaszvanitt··on Supermarket freezers across Europe hit by second suspected cyber-attack
People only learn if they feel the heat on themselves. Well, this was "free" security advice for the future.

Imagine if somehow all the geeky/nerdy/difficult people would be removed from society and then something evil descends upon humanity, that needs out of the box thinking, but they killed all the strange ones, because they were no sheeps.

lofaszvanitt··on Supermarket freezers across Europe hit by second suspected cyber-attack
Because most of these chaps do not read daily news related to their profession.
lofaszvanitt··on Anthropic reveals $900B AI spending commitments ahead of IPO
The safest bet here is to put your money into datacenter infrastructure indexes :D
lofaszvanitt··on Starcraft: Ashfall
No, sorry but you are deliberately trying to whitewash stealing. People got used to expropriate things from others and gain credit from it, pretending to be their intellectual project. How shallow :D.

Btw, why do you want to shit on them? When you haven't seen none of them? :D

lofaszvanitt··on Cisco gives engineer unlimited AI tokens to rewrite legacy code
Anthropic training data unrecoverably got tainted, need to retrain.
lofaszvanitt··on Anthropic Cracking Down on Video Game Rewrites
They need to protect the other corporate obelisks.
lofaszvanitt··on Serbia just elected the world's brainiest parliament
Good, next, replace politicians and shitmixers with AI bots.
lofaszvanitt··on Malware uses LLMs to rank victims by how much they're worth
Maybe consume less sensationalist newsbits :P.
lofaszvanitt··on Tree-mounted machines connect to web app to let users knock on wood remotely
You have to do it with a right hand, from under. So this is 100% fake.
lofaszvanitt··on The $6.3B Binance hack was pulled off in just 20 minutes
Nah, we have to talk about why head engineers suck at security.
lofaszvanitt··on Binance-hacker-1029 – $5.6B stolen from Binance
Security, nobody cares about it.....

lofaszvanitt··on StackOverflow now gets fewer than 1000 questions a month
Yeah, good ol innocent times.
lofaszvanitt··on Claude Code regularly sends each background agent’s transcript to its model
The newer the CC cli is, the more tokens it burns. I use a very old version and killed its "no matter what I'm still gonna autoupdate myself to the latest version", because new ones do all kinds of useless tasks in the background. If you are on a tight budget use an older version (1+ year) of the cc cli, and it saves you a lot of money.

It might have happened because there are currents on the net and platforms where the only purpose is to pull out as much data from you and other humans as possible and give back NOTHING. Be wary what you post and about what.

They exploit the basic human needs and build whole exploiting platforms on it and then kick you out from the nest like a cuckoo does with other bird chicks. The abnormal modding and other shenanigans also killed my interest quite quickly, but in hindsight I have to say, good riddance. People are naive and gullible, and give out decades of experience on a whim, because they think that everyone is as good and benevolent as them. While in reality there are a lot of truly evil and selfish people out there and at the end of the day using their knowledge against the good ones.

And now here we are in the AI madness, where a similar exploitation is happening just at a much bigger scale, using the benevolent and naive ones information against them.

160pb in SSD?
lofaszvanitt··on Xbox wants you to pay 24 to 40 cents per hour to stream games you bought
Sooo we can conclude most of these trumped up recompilation projects are a coordinated attack, so decision makers could say, we need to protecc ourselves from this thread.

Someone started it, lots of other bored people, followed. Damage done, remedy already in store for gamers.

lofaszvanitt··on Making My Blog Readable by AI Agents
Maybe read how webfetch and websearch works inside the harnesses.
lofaszvanitt··on The HTML-in-Canvas API origin trial
Still, if it wouldn't be there, nobody would notice.... rofl
lofaszvanitt··on Someone leaked a Mass Effect 5 trailer and now I feel worse
Good that they cancelled the thing. It's nothing spectacular. Usual 12 year old kids in adult bodies kinda predigested story with a borderline idiotic setting/universe. Would have burnt in the atmosphere 2 weeks after release. Along the 100 millions it needed.

Look at expedition 33... they jumped ship from Ubisoft, and, well it worked. Small team, with no knitting classes = success.

lofaszvanitt··on Cloudflare deploys protections against php2shell vulnerability
Let the weenys burn. They gonna never learn how to secure their systems.
