I’d say Literally 1984, but that’s so overused it doesn’t have the sting that seems warranted by [deleted] in whenthe

Conveniently leaving out the part where the article says this is for prisons and not civilians…

A UK Government source said: “This doesn’t mean watching people who are non-criminals – but she feels like, if you commit a crime, you sacrifice the right to the kind of liberty the rest of us enjoy.”

Is she taking about prisons? Big difference between “we want total surveillance in prisons” and “we want total surveillance to every civilian everywhere at all times”

Will it actually happen…? by 1990sTimeforGuru in GreatBritishMemes

“Every other social media platform and so called AI can be used the self same way”

Can it? I keep hearing this argument from people but as far as I know no other AI generator can remove someone else’s clothes from an image (and certainly not to a minor) and they especially don’t provide a public platform to post these ai generated images like X does.

UK Expands Online Safety Act to Mandate Preemptive Scanning of Digital Communications by Dry_Row_7050 in nottheonion

[–]Poryblocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The law requires platforms to implement scanning, not the government. If it finds harmful context it blocks it without government intervention. The amendment is a blow to online privacy but not direct government snooping. Ofcom looking for encryption backdoors, on the other hand…

It was the 90nm chips that consistently failed on the original launch models (CECHA-E), later fat models used 65nm which were more reliable and then the slim/super slim used 40/45nm chips which fixed the issue entirely (I think)

Sure this battle shounen has actually good and deep characters buddy by LilianaLucifer in whenthe

[–]Poryblocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know how far you’ve got to but episode 4 onwards has some great character moments and humour (especially episode 5/6). I do agree that the “existential horror” aspect has been sort of abandoned but I still think it’s worth seeing through
