BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•UK | Tech firms suggested placing trackers under offenders’ skin at meeting with justice secretaryEnglish3·10 hours agoIs this dystopian enough?
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Half a million Spotify users are unknowingly grooving to an AI-generated bandEnglish143·12 hours agoSo people like LLM generated music, they just have issue with it not being labelled correctly.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Global News@lemmy.zip•China is cracking down on young women who write gay eroticaEnglish52·2 days agoNobody expressed any position before your comment. You were the first comment on this post. Instead of explaining your position you chose an unprompted attack. If you don’t like that rule 4 was used, rule 3 also applied to that comment.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Global News@lemmy.zip•Political ‘constraints’ led to jet losses in Pakistan clash, says Indian officialEnglish1·2 days agoOnly a blood thirsty idiot would call declaring a war on another country a “political constraint”.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Global News@lemmy.zip•UK govt condemns 'death to the IDF' chants at GlastonburyEnglish8·2 days agoDid UK government also “strongly condemned” a genocide in Gaza they are directly financing with taxpayers money?
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Technology@lemmy.zip•WhatsApp Deploys AI, for Those Incapable of Comprehending Straightforward Messages From Their Friends and FamilyEnglish8·2 days agoAny company operating in any country has to comply with their laws. The difference is that Signal has almost no data to share to comply. Message content and metadata is encrypted so they have no access to it. Your phone number is the only identifier they have and would be obligated by law to share.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Facebook is starting to feed its Meta AI with private, unpublished photosEnglish5·3 days ago<…> all our information.
The fucked up thing is that just not using Facebook or other Meta services doesn’t solve the issue. They track you across the web with unique fingerprinting even if never had an account with them and they also tie the data to you from people around you that might upload or share something about you to their services.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Judge: Pirate libraries may have profited from Meta torrenting 80TB of booksEnglish3·4 days agoTitle is shit. What the judge meant by this is:
It’s possible that authors may be able to show evidence that Meta “contributed to the BitTorrent network” by providing significant computing power that could’ve meaningfully assisted shadow libraries, Chhabria said in a footnote.
Which is unlikely.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Technology@lemmy.zip•Gemini is getting ready to replace Google Assistant on AndroidEnglish3·5 days ago<…> appease privacy-focused users <…>
Appease? That’s the word you use for people caring about privacy? Seriously? Pathetic corporate ghoul.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Global News@lemmy.zip•Iran vetting body okays bill suspending cooperation with UN nuclear watchdogEnglish7·5 days agoAs predicted. Now they will work on nuclear weapon in secret and will announce it in a few years as deterent from any other terrorist attacks by US or Israel.
The red line was crossed and will be crossed again when US or Israel “feels like it”. So going all in is their only sane option.
BrikoX@lemmy.zipMto Global News@lemmy.zip•'You are not alone': Taiwan, US institutions rally behind Israel following Iran strikesEnglish7·5 days agoLee emphasized the shared values between Taiwan and Israel: “Taiwan and Israel share the same values and a belief in defending a way of life under threat. Though both are small nations, no country is too small to deserve freedom or to stand on the right side of history.”
Sadly you are on the wrong side of history and a hypocrite.

Indeed. Google decided to fuck everyone over like always against the wishes of the main developer.
AVIF is pretty universally supported at this point. JPEG XL just lacks browser support because Google, prefers to push their own .webp and Mozilla is not interested in supporting any non AI focused standards these days.
Exactly why monopoly power is killer of innovation.
Even with the new spec PNG is far behind new standards like AVIF or JPEG XL.

BrikoX@lemmy.zipOPMto Global News@lemmy.zip•UK protest group Palestine Action denies Iran funding as it faces banEnglish8·7 days agoThe only evidence it provided was saying that the IRGC’s vocabulary “echoes in Palestine Action’s slogans”.
We are getting closer to every website having a paywall. And shit like this will just lead to more spam sites popping that just have pages upon pages of LLM generated content so that they can get a payout.
