I don't think we give Meta, Google and OpenAI enough credit for their AI LLM accomplishments. I mean, who would have imagined we could spend billions of dollars and warmed the planet a few degrees all to teach computers to not be able to do math. It really is an astonishing achievement. #AI#generativeAI
This situation with RoboForm is why we can't have nice things. People need to not only possess, but trust password managers until such time we finally move on to superior identity verification.
It's terrible to have a flaw that requires a re-encrypt event, but it is tragic and unnecessary to cover it up and not take your lumps and prompt a corrective action.
This undermines trust in the concept, not just the product.
OK, let's try this again. I will be on Mornings with Simi on CKNW tomorrow morning at 08:15 discussing the London Drugs situation and the impact of ransomware. https://globalnews.ca/bc/program/the-simi-sara-show/
I can't seem to find it, but it seems like someone on here mentioned a federated alternative search project (as in to replace Google and Bing). Does anyone know of one?
@chetwisniewski there's this: https://yacy.net/.
I have it installed, but don't use it as much as I should, and it doesn't get updated often, which is a shame as I feel it could do with some more features.
There's also this: https://github.com/searxng/searxng, which is.more of an aggregator, which may not be what you want.
I have an install at home and it is my default search "engine".
When there were bing-related problems the other day, I didn't notice, although my search results might have been slightly different to normal.
@chewie Ahh, yes, Yacy. I ran a Yacy server a few years ago. The idea was promising, but the results disappointing. Maybe I shall give it another whirl. Thanks!
I am booked to be on BC Today on CBC TV, GEM, Radio 1, and YouTube at noon today (Friday 24 May) for a ~20 minute discussion on London Drugs ransomware leaks and Cybersecurity in general. Join us if you're free and interested!
For friends in BC I will be on CTV tonight talking with Penny Daflos talking about the ransom attack against First Nations Health and on CBC and Global TV discussing the London Drugs ransomware leaks that were published this afternoon.
Moved some stuff today to my storage locker. Got me thinking of @spike@threatresearch and his work at the Media Archaeology Lab. My original Amiga 1000 serial number 700. Price tag shows original $1295 USD price from 1985, $3775 today. 256 KB RAM if I recall. Amazing system at the time.
Hoping Vancouver stays calm tonight no matter the outcome of the Canucks Vs. Oilers game 7. I live about 500 meters from Rogers Arena and could use for a drama-free celebration. #hnom
@coffeegeek I was just interested in the generic Americano article, but it only half loads. Where is Lance's video? Looking forward to your detailed post when the time is right for you to write it :)
Followers in Vancouver who don't follow the media closely, there will be a loud fly over by the Snowbirds at 1900. Don't panic, protect your pet's ears if needed!
