Hello Fedi! My employer went through my #PostCovid time with me. Now that I'm back to work full time, they suddenly decided to let me go. 🤷‍♀️ I'm a #pentester with 5 years of experience in the field, before that 3 years of software dev in the #infosec field as well. Got a Bsc. in Computer Sience with emphasis on infosec and networke systems. In my #homelab I'm selfhosting on #proxmox and #k8s. I've been daily driving #linux for the past 20 years, first #gentoo, then #fedora. I'm pretty good with it, but no certs. I'm looking to continue in #offensivesecurity, but would be happy to pivot into infra/network or any other adventure given it's interessting or a good cause. Happy to invest in my skillset. Hybrid in north-eastern #Switzerland fully remote anywhere else. #getfedihired #fedihired

@drgroftehauge@sigmoid.social @inthehands@hachyderm.io open-weight or not, it's still stolen from all over the place, or at least taken without consent. 🤷‍♀️ they don't charge for any of it, but it's now locked behind the ability to afford a device and having the technical skill to run the models. At least in my opinion, in terms of accessibility of information, it's still a net loss. I can't at the same time hate Google for their monopoly on search, and thus access to information, and cheer open-weight models. Although I'm somewhat what more open to being convinced that open-weight models are net win for society. There's at least a theoretical path to get there .

@_elena@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu So to access this "open" space we need to download an application from the stores from the selfsame companies you criticised for having a gatekeeper roles? AND these are the companies we want to become more independent off. Hypocritical the last degree. Hard to believe that this actually about freedom and sovereignty, and not about building yet another surveillance and censorship apparatus. Just "Under EU controll".

@prefec2@norden.social @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange Well, search is actually one of the few things LLMs are actually good at, if you expect more than a simple key word search. They literally are purpos built paternmatching machins for human language. BUT and this a biiig but. You have to train your LLM on the kind of data you want it to be competent in searching and you have to prompt it the right way. You also have to keep your fingers out of the cooky jar and not secretly train and prompt it to sell more ads instead of being actually useful. All three prerequisites are not fulfilled for any of the big search providers. All the "free" Google and Microsoft services have one single purpos: sell ads. It doesn't have to be good, as long as it drives clicks.

@Katika@chaos.social A part of me is wondering why they need to build yet another closed garden instead of joining the Fediverse. On the other hand, we do perfectly fine without them. It's just gonna be another BlueSky, but run by European sycophants to the rich and powerful rather than US ones. Different lipstick, same pig.

It'll be like crochet though, very fun to watch other do it, getting horrible tangled up when I do it myself. Although I was better at Gentoo than I ever was at crochet.

Okey, we are once again back to #YoutTube showing me loads of thumbnails with alog of cleavage and ass on display for obvious click bait. Like could you not?! It's probably because I watched a few Stardew Valley videos by a creator that could be accused of boobystreaming. Mind you, actually no boobs in these videos. Not even a face. I need to get out of this #algorithm crapshoot.

Edit: just to be clear here, I don't intend to shame female presenting creators for being themselves, or even using what nature has gifted them. That's their decision. What grinds my gears is, when channels obviously run by some cis-het white dudes or some faceless corpo does it.

Ifoten get told I'm good with #computers I'm not so sure.

Suddenly my computer stops responding. I can move the mouse, but when I click things, nothing happens. I figure I just ran out of memory and waited for the #linux kernel to kill the offending process. Nothing. Reboot. Nothing. Mild panic. Login via terminal, calling #htop. Looks fine. Reboot. Still "stuck". Start crawling through journalctl. Nothing catastrophic is happening here either. Trying to navigate the system by keyboard. That works! What the HELL is going on? Turning on and off the mouse. Connecting the mouse by cable instead of Bluetooth. Still nothing. Say whaaat? Then I give the mouse a good whack, and everything's back to normal.

Folks, don't trust me with your computers.

I'm goddamn sick of the #aislop flooding #YouTube. Search results are full of channels spamming videos for everything, and I can't even tell YT not to show a specific channel. It's infuriating. Seriously considering canceling YT Premium and just put up with whatever creators I can follow on other platforms.

Not sure whether it's appropriate to make fun of it, but the whole thing is so stupid and bleak ... maybe laughing about it makes it less stomach churning.

I just realised that Jurassic Park is " #woke as fuck". The Philosoraptors in the park are all female, so they aren't supposed to be able to reproduce, right? But their DNA has been spliced with some frog thingy that can change their sex if required. If that isn't some #trans representation right there! Not sure that's the kind of representation we want, though. 🤔 Aaany way, I'm gonna troop that one out next time someone comes at me with some appeal-to-nature type BS argument. I know the science in the movie is bad, but why cant I have a bit of artistic licences too. 😬

Apparently 70% of #Swiss citizens think one of the richest countries in the world can't affort investing 0.5 to 1% of it's BIP into not fucking-up the planet or figuring out how to unfuck ourselves. I'm ashamed of my fellow citizens. Seriously, how shortsighted and greedy can we be?

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social My exact reaction as well, when I heard that the AI grifters are now complaining to the gov about other grifters grifting on them. @claudeai@threads.net it's only a bit embarrassing, a tiny bit. You plundering societies wealth of public knowledge and everything besides and then selling it back to us at a premium. We are not as stupid as your little sock puppet Artificial Idiots.

@kytta the wild thing about this is: OSM and it's various tools go out of their way to tell you not to copy from other map material. Then Google just pinches what ever they want from OSM. Which is fine I guess, but it would be nice if they gave something back.

@alice@lgbtqia.space What's in your pants? Business! What business? None of your business ! 🫠 I always wonder what they think this line of questioning will lead to. Just assuming they find out that your hardware is their prefered flavour. They just demonstrated that they are mostly interested in the superficialities of your body ... and now they expect you to drool over them? Puzzling!

Replying to @netzpolitik_feed@chaos.social
@netzpolitik_feed If this really happens, it's a desaster and that includes them as well. The #foss ecosystem is more like mycelium, and individual large projects are the visible mushrooms. Tending one or two mushrooms (this is where the analogy goes out the window) nurtures a whole cluster of interwoven smaller parts, that are reused across many projects. If they want more FOSS in their orgs (#publicmoneypubliccode ) this hurts them too. But bean counters can't think that way.
