This is crazy. Stable diffusion created a verification image of someone doing their KYC for a bank or similar. AI will impact Know-Your-Customer identity verification processes. As AI makes it easier & cheaper to impersonate someone’s likeness and identity markers (often found in a breach) it will become simpler for attackers to takeover accounts and steal money, data, impact brands, etc.

@nixCraft ну все, прощайте удобные банки и удаленные сервисы. Добро пожаловать снова в пение прогулки в МФЦ, банки и прочие собесы

Iron Bug
@nixCraft only idiots use such "verification" like KYC or via phones SMS/push messages. really, all such things must be banned by normal banks and only phisical presence of a client or a predefined and verified RSA private key/bank card with similar key can identify a person.

@nixCraft wow, this is fantastic. Congratulations to the author for making real progress on something so ambitious.

@nixCraft if you good security, go for custom-made systems. Hardening is nothing else but customization.

I was going this way but have been reading that these FIDO keys are UScentric and do not work well when used from other countries... Can you comment?

Ugh 😤 ip command is the most significant change in Linux since they deprecated the ifconfig, a standard command on unix-like systems such as macOS, freebsd, and others. Check out my ip command guide cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-ip-com for more info.

This #Linux, #Unix, #macOS, #FreeBSD shell feature comparison table shows that ZSH and FISH have the most features. Why aren't you using ZSH or FISH yet?

@nixCraft that comes just at the right time. I was thinking about switching to fish, but without associative arrays and subshells it’s not for me.

@nixCraft I'll stick with X11 until the full Plasma 6 release and hopefully its in a more usable state with Nvidia. There are just too many small issues that makes it unusable for me right now.

@nixCraft TBH I have no idea, and why should I care? 🤔

@nixCraft sleeping on the floor requires me to do at least one get up a day?

Though I suspect there is a distinction to be made between work/life balance issues, and generally have a different approach to appropriate sleeping places.

@nixCraft 16 hours on the left, 8 hours on the right. Base spend ratio 2:1.

Metrics from right good/high. Metrics from left normal/average. Additional spend justified on left.

Depreciation on left exceeds depreciation on the right. Additional spend justified on the left.

I think I'm just following the data, but I don't make 100k anymore.

@nixCraft I wonder what his download speed is when using rsync 😅

Geoff Winkless

@nixCraft love this. As an aside, installing Hacker's Keyboard makes ssh much more bearable.

she hacked you

@nixCraft Wait, you put a private ssh key on your phone then on a server somewhere have it set as an authorized key?

This type of behavior.. I could try to find a video that properly expresses the shock I feel (and ever so slight glee), but I will let my text suffice.

@nixCraft Except for the last image, generally agree. People's laziness leads to creating more and more compatibility layers instead of creating a native application. That's life ) But that doesn't mean we shouldn't pay attention to the fact that we want more and more native applications to appear, instead of just being satisfied that something can be run by spending a lot of resources on compatibility.

Google is doing everything to drive Firefox users with adblock extensions crazy. Some Firefox users are still experiencing a 5 second delay when trying to view YouTube content.

YouTube's response: Pay for premium, switch to Chrome or disable your ad blocker.

To celebrate the 30th birthday of DOOM, here's a thread of everything that I've found that DOOM can run on. Some are real, some... maybe not. It's up to you to figure out which 😉

Let's begin with:
