The pricing scheme here is designed to gouge businesses for equal or more than the traditional non-cloud equivalent. Which happens to be completely unaffordable. Imagine buying a new enterprise grade server for your home setup.

hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Technology@lemmy.world•Cloud company assisted 17 different government hacking groups [identified in the article as Cloudzy]English42·2 years agoSo I guess if I want to pay for my VPS with crypto I am a criminal? Good work cyber sleuths, you solved the problem!
This is the hosting equivalent of racial profiling and this firm in Texas should be ashamed. It is not good cyber security work.
At best they’ve identified something everyone else already knew and witch hunting Cloudzy (even if they are 100% malicious,) provides zero value.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Technology@lemmy.world•Google tries to defend its Web Environment IntegrityEnglish21·2 years agoMonopoly busting. Ecosystem lock-in. Right to repair. Software patent reform. Privacy and AI regulation.
What do lawmakers even do these days anyway?
We should just use second notation for everything.
I’ll be there in 5 min? I’ll be there in 2 or 3 hundo!
See you tommorow? See you in in 86K!
Next week? About half a Megasec!
Doesn’t Megasecond sound better than Fortnite?
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Technology@lemmy.world•Pentagon-Funded Study Uses AI to Detect 'Violations of Social Norms'English31·2 years agoDAE feel like they woke up one day recently and “AI” suddenly has the answer to EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM EVER? Yet, nothing is getting noticeably better?
“AI” doesn’t have to work a dead end job to feed its family, or turn to alcohol because it’s lonely and scared of being forgotten. It’s training data is a curated version of the human experience based on the Internet!
It’s playing human instead of being human and ALL of its solutions will assume that’s “normal.”
Imagine a five star general googling “should I attack this country?” That’s silly right? Well that’s what’s happening. It’s just being wrapped in a way that makes it look novel.
These are algorithms designed to mimic humans. When faced with any actual controversy they must be persuaded to answer in an “acceptable” and predetermined manner.
The golden rule.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Technology@lemmy.world•Google Is Really, Really ThirstyEnglish8·2 years agoSomeone with a degree weigh in here. All these big tech companies are buying 100% sustainable energy, reducing their carbon footprint YOY, but it doesn’t seem to be making a difference on global GHG.
What accounts for the increase? Purely population increase plus consumption?
There never was love for flatpaks and there never will be. I’ll never forgive them for killing my son.
Was the OP a blahaj account, or someone from a different instance?
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Wireshark Turns 25English1·2 years agoI had a “bearstein effect” moment just now. I had thought wireshark sold out. Like “Wireshark by Rapid7,” but i just checked and it looks like they’ve stayed the FOSS course! Way to go!
Bot, you also need to tell people that /c/blah is meaningless. This is not Reddit bot homie!
When Palo Alto sells your dipshit CIO one firewall appliance per virtual server. “Somehow. Someway,” says the salesperson, “we’re gonna get even more firewalls in here!”
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a way to block those bots that just crosspost reddit content?English17·2 years agoAnd now the ENTIRE INSTANCE for lululemon, who’s bot posts 1000 times a minute.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Suboptimal ways to respond to a public security incidentEnglish2·2 years agoIf the only criteria to be in a private channel for admins is being an admin, there’s no use making it private. ;) Unless your just looking to filter out bad actors who don’t want to take 5 min and 5$ to make an instance.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Suboptimal ways to respond to a public security incidentEnglish3·2 years agoFYI for anyone looking to deface more instances, That list is only updated every 24 hours. Depending on when it last run on your home instance, the info could be out of date.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked19·2 years agoOut of curiosity, where would the regulators go for a case like this? There’s no “company” running it per. se.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked4·2 years agoConcerns were posted a few days ago, but no POC that used the exact same attack as we saw here. Basically, there were some warnings, and work was underway that would have prevented this, but it was not done fast enough. There is a patch now, that will take a while to roll out, plus a renewed focus on general and related issues.
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked17·2 years agoDon’t fall for it. They’re also an admin on mastodon.world! :)
hawkwind@lemmy.managementto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked24·2 years agoThey defaced it with dicks and changed the federation list to be only threads.net. I don’t think it was a state sponsored chinese hacking group. :)
I love the idea of taking on a monopoly, but I don’t like that, without regulation, it has a low chance of success, and the consumer gets to suffer as the monopoly fights back.
