Elon Musk Says He Owns Everyone's Twitter Account in Bizarre Alex Jones Court Filing
  • Sure, but that doesn't mean he owns any trademarks that might appear within those account names, like, say, Infowars or some such. He can give the account to whoever he wants. But he can't protect them from being sued for trademark infringement if they use it.

  • Bizarre Android Auto bug adds 'Oh' to WhatsApp messages
  • Surely it couldn't be reading the \0 null terminator at the end of the string...

  • X's Objection to the Onion Buying InfoWars Is a Reminder You Do Not Own Your Social Media Accounts
  • Fine, let them keep it. Just sue them for trademark infringement if they ever use it.

  • Were you guys able to get people to move to Lemmy?
  • I just go where Sync goes.

    Sync basically was Reddit to me, for over a decade. And now Sync goes to Lemmy. So here I am.

  • ‘Thirsty’ ChatGPT uses four times more water than previously thought
  • Does that account for cooling? Storage? Networking? Non-H100 compute and memory?

  • Warp Terminal is Lifting their login requirement
  • Premature optimization is a waste of time.

  • Uh oh, the Borg must have assimilated the Gungans

  • Also Stargate: "Crap! Our explosives are powering their shield!

  • Microsoft's official "Bing Wallpaper app" does some nasty, malware-like things to Windows
  • Active Desktop was entirely ahead of its time. Let's not forget that it was only around a decade later that JIT-compiled JavaScript engines like V8 paved the way for web apps, including the iPhone which at launch only supported third-party apps as web apps.

  • US military officials used China-linked promotional gift shop GS-JJ, exposing over 300K emails
  • It's sort of the extreme example of regulations are written in blood.

  • A new iOS 18 security feature makes it harder for police to unlock iPhones
  • The last 3 generations of iPhone released in the US do not have physical SIM card slots at all.

  • Cyber-Security Experts Warn Election Was Hacked
  • I'm sure some do, but the question wasn't about them. The ones in my state certainly don't.

  • Cyber-Security Experts Warn Election Was Hacked
  • Prison sentences were handed down, but not before the software was uploaded onto the internet, now easily accessible on Github, a well-known and legal site used by coders to access and modify software.

    For an article so chock full of hyperlinks, you would think there would be one in this sentence.

    ePollbooks are used in every polling station in the USA and are connected to the internet. Volunteers sign voters into the polling station to double-check they are in the correct precinct and ensure they haven’t cast their paper ballot elsewhere.

    What?! No, they absolutely aren't. I signed a paper poll book this year, just like I've always done.

    They are calling for an immediate hand recount in key precincts which, they say, should swiftly show that a number of these ballots never existed.

    How do you hand recount a ballot that doesn't physically exist?

  • Owning a home has rarely been this much more expensive than renting
  • I was just trying to make sense of the numbers. We are all acutely aware of the retail price gouging.
