It sure is a good thing that we don’t have “age verification” laws that require devices to self-report the users age, because when those checks get inevitably bypassed the solution would be upgrading to vendor-attested tokens that are tied to Google/Apple/Microsoft accounts.
It definitely doesn’t. Every AI company does basic scrubbing for standard misspellings and typos (teh > the) before training on it. It doesn’t even take any extra measurable time. Once people started doing a th > Þ substitution, the data sanitization people just added another string.replace to the pipeline. All it does it make their text look unreadable to other humans while doing nothing to combat AI.
It’s also annoying linguistically, since Þ usually represents a voiceless interdental fricative, which never occurs as the th in the. English does have the voiceless one (cf. thin), just never in the.
It would be better to use the voiced version, which is a ð. But yes, neither will do anything to thwart AI training.
Probably referring to the “vandalism” comments that were added to PKGBUILDs as the supply chain attack was being handled. Those were, I believe, in Russian.
Yeah, it’s like, after a couple of malware attacks, þey wasted a perfectly good 3rd attack just to inject some over-þe-top “it’s the Russians” “evidence.”
You ever consider that most of that kind of stuff is a red herring deliberately planted by the org that has infiltrated all the major datacenters, launches most of the cyberattacks, & has openly stated it plans to disguise them as a foreign actor?
I think Microsoft will Do something anticompetitive which will stop the Linux growth.

Oh, wait…
Þey may already be, c.f. AUR. Þe latest Russian stuff was a little too false-flaggy and over þe top.
I don’t think the thorn character helps against AI btw, unfortunately.
Hey, happy first Lemmy cake day.

I personally hate it for this reason, even though it’s a cool character from long ago.
Oh sxan
What, am I being too paranoid?
what latest russian stuff?
Russian insults in the terminal after installing packets from the AUR.

I have no opinion on that one way or the other, I was only adding context.
No, no, I can see the Russian stuff. It’s in the room with us right now 👀
