So the warning isn’t that the QR codes are malicious or could in some way harm your device. The warning appears to be that the QR codes advertising cannabis purchase and delivery could connect to exactly what they say they will.

Spoken like someone who manages programmers instead of working as one.
And millions of people want Elon Musk to get one himself.
Your use of Cryptography is probably roughly on the level of “Having a strong password.”
The application of quantum computers will largely in in BREAKING security. You’re not going to have a quantum-security module in your phone or home computer.
Sounds to me like all advertisers should just assume that on Xitter, their ads will show alongside Nazi/Alt-Right/Hateful content. GARM, the project that Elmo just killed, used to inform them when that sort of thing happened. So with the warning system down, Ad companies should revert to a fail-safe state and abandon the platform completely.
And the rest of us should ABSOLUTELY make a habit of blasting out screenshots of ads next to heinous shit, and ask the company why they support that kind of content.
Don’t forget the customers of the restaurant also saw the head chef personally farting on all the plates before the food was placed on them. It’s not just the health inspector’s report.
Do it. Fucking do it, man, I WANT it to happen. Mash that self-destruct like there’s no tomorrow, Spez, see how low you can go!
He’ll also trample absolutely any rules necessary to support speech he happens to agree with.
Weird choice. These days I’d bet the absolute best thing Bing, or any other search engine, could do to stand out in the search game would be to explicitly not use AI results. The advertising is so easy you don’t even need AI to write it for you.
Montage of a few blatantly wrong AI generated answers telling people it’s okay to cook with gasoline in your sauce or that drinking a little bit of bleach is healthy or whatever… then cut to a list of well respected sources that say otherwise. “The internet is already good enough at feeding you wrong answers. Search the way it’s meant to be.”
The fantasy of a pioneering life on Mars is an easy one to love, especially if we assume it’s actually well enough established that you have all the excitement of Frontier life and none of the struggle to survive. It’s not gullibility, it’s hope.
Then we think about it and ask ourselves what worker abuses Musk has perpetrated here on earth, and what would he do when Earthly laws can no longer apply. The more I think about what it would be like in the SpaceX Mars Colony, the more dystopian it gets.
I’d say this is a great time for even more advertisers to abandon that platform, but really anyone who would care about this should have left a long time ago.
Also don’t forget, he buys companies that are already successful and then rewrites their history to say he founded them, and then he tells engineers to do a thing and takes the credit when those engineers figure out how to do it.
I will, however, readily believe that most of the Cybertruck was actually his idea, probably initially drawn in crayon.
It’s almost funny really. Way back when, his goals were commendable. The proliferation of electric cars was an Eco-friendly dream. Tesla battery projects were poised to expand renewable energy source utilization. Basically everything SpaceX was doing with reusable rockets was just really cool to the nerd demographic. All he had to do was shut the fuck up, let the work speak for itself, and people would still like him. Not without black marks on his record, of course, but on balance, people would probably like him.
But no. Elmo couldn’t shut the fuck up, a problem he continues to have at every turn, and people learned who he really is. His electric vehicle baby stopped being the scrappy upstart with teething problems, and started being a manufacturing disaster that had loose production tolerances matched only by the loose tolerances on what qualified as acceptable working conditions. SpaceX decided that cluttering orbit with thousands of disposable satellites was cool, and the environment and astronomy could fuck off. The only stories about Tesla Batteries that followed were about how quickly they lost their capacity and how expensive they were to replace. And Elmo himself bought a globally known communications company, immediately obliterated it’s value, and turned it into a cesspit of literal Nazis. And this is the abridged list.
All Elon Musk had to do was shut the fuck up and people would have liked him. Just goes to show that “Just be yourself” is really shitty advice for some people.
They certainly can, but they really shouldn’t. I can hardly think of anywhere in the country that would be more hostile to trans students.
How fun would it be if the next Texas power grid failure manages to cause serious damage to Apartheid-Baby’s pet project?
Apple will tie themselves in knots to make it impossible to repair your tech 3rd party, and maybe even refusing to fix it if it WAS repaired 3rd party before, but I’ve never heard of them also requiring that it be destroyed and your personal information given over.
It’s honestly impressive to find out that someone is WORSE than Apple when it comes to repairing and customer rights.
You’re assuming Steam will just completely ignore a situation where players are flat out incapable of playing the game they paid for.
Yeah? That’s… how LLMs work. It doesn’t KNOW anything, it’s a glorified auto-fill. It knows what words look good after what’s already there, it doesn’t care whether anything it’s saying is correct, it doesn’t KNOW if it’s correct. It doesn’t know what correct even is. It isn’t made to lie or tell the truth, those concepts are completely unknown to it’s function.
LLMs like ChatGPT are explicitly and only good at composing replies that look good. They are Convincing. That’s it. It will confidently and convincingly make shit up.
