2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    I wonder when chat gpt being included in everything will backfire. How many requests are being sent to a multiple servers that people are unaware of and how secure are those servers?

    Yeah my company enabled the use of copilot with our corporate Microsoft accounts. I don't understand how you can open such a massive can of worms to ALL your users. It's pretty much begging for information to completely leave corporate control. It's absolutely insane.

    [–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago (2 children)

    I asked copilot how to turn off copilot, and it responded with "It is probably time to change the question topics"

    [–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    This is dumb copilot. Smart copilot will just open up tik tok to whatever your brain can’t resist and you’ll forget you even asked.

    Jokes on you I'm immune to propaganda 😹

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Believing you're immune makes you particularly vulnerable, because it may hinder you from noticing that you're wrong. None of us are above deception or manipulation, and to assume otherwise is to let down our guard.

    NAWWWW no way, I am so immune that I πŸ’―% believe that I am immune to COVID, AIDS, and even Assburgers.

    Edit: are people this dumb that I have to put a /s /j on these comments.

    I'm afraid I can't do that ~~Dave~~ BCsven

    Pretty much the responses I got trying to force it to tell me.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

    For most commercial products they offer what they call Copilot with data protection.

    I hate that they are shoving it down everyone's throat but data leakage is a primary company concern that they have addressed.

    Now, how much that is true on the backend is anyone's guess, but they're selling something that they could be held legally accountable for.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

    Especially since you can have self hosted versions.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

    I mean they've been doing multitenancy in Azure for a while.. I'd be pretty surprised if the data input from copilot was not handled in the same manner.

    [–] [email protected] 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    Worse, the communication isn't through some finite algorithm... It's this amorphouse agent that can be tricked to saying things it's explicitly designed not to say.

    [–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    I will die of laughter if someone manages to trick copilot to get data stolen from the USA (or another countrie's) government by M$. Not saying it will happen, but knowing GPT... Just imagine the memes

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    How long til CoPilot coughs up Windows 11 source code, or something like that? That's what I want. Accidental open sourced windows from overzealous implementation of AI by Microsoft.

    That's not quite how it works

    [–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

    Local government is also having this issue. Lots of cities don't have the resources so will probably throw a lot at gpt...which means a very large attack vector.

    Google is bad, but it isn’t being integrated ant the operating system level.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

    That's true but they they were the pioneers in surveillance.

    Reload in "Reader View" or something similar, the paywall is weak.

    The US Government Has a Microsoft Problem

    Microsoft has stumbled through a series of major cybersecurity failures over the past few years. Experts say the US government’s reliance on its systems means the company continues to get a free pass.

    [–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

    Not just the US.

    [–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

    Many governments have that same problem. I'd actually consider it a bigger problem for those other governments.

    It's extra funny that the PR drone MS have wheeled out has the last name Faehl - how's that pronounced, I wonder... Could it be fail?

    Fitting really...

    Personally, I'm deeply entwined in the MS ~~product stack~~pillar of turds and I hate it. They appeared to gave made an honest effort after the trustworthy computing initiative, but that has clearly been eroded...

    Why they've got everyone's trust, I just can't understand. Convenience trumps everything else, I guess...

    Remember the South Park movie, when they wanted to invade, and when their visualisation failed, called for Bill Gates?

    Isn't this a place for memes?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

    It is, but I suck at it. Hopefully, someone will grab the screenshot and make it into a meme.
