I used to play with those as a kid. We called them jarts (or lawn darts). They disappeared for some reason. 🤔

We had some when I was younger. Bright colored plastic death sticks were the best! -
@FuturisticRobert @Viss @cR0w The real problem is that at the rate of conglomeration (like an ourboros) of security companies, being a rogue small outfit kinda puts you on the back heel and almost having to ambulance chase.

@FuturisticRobert @cR0w @krypt3ia @Viss <compliance hat on>
The reason security isn't 'profitable' is because the penalty for leaking the PII including SSNs of 147 million people is less than one half of one quarter's profit.And if it doesn't make headlines and you had all the required disclosures in place, it's $0.

@drwho Sure. Go nuts. :-)
@cR0w Thank you very much.

@rootwyrm @FuturisticRobert @cR0w @Viss Losing data is all the rage now.

And when all the big conglomo's own the security companies, each will offer up in-depth reports on the glaring vulnerabilities of the other guys while saying nothing when they themselves have a zero day. Looking at #google, #microsoft (#microslop), et al.

@FuturisticRobert @krypt3ia @Viss You mean like Fortinet has done for the past however many years?

@krypt3ia @FuturisticRobert @cR0w @Viss well of course, it's basically free PR. Not like you're going to be fined. Company just taps the one-off legal cost of writing up the sign and their 'legal obligations have been met.

@cR0w @FuturisticRobert @Viss There is only one answer, leave the cybers, go off grid, make your own food, and herd sheep.

"AI is giving attackers a huge advantage!"
"Yes, it is. It's amazing how quickly it has destroyed dev, sec, ops, management, company missions and priorities, regulations, information literacy, and civil society, making everyone more vulnerable."
@cR0w it's a virus.

@cR0w @jackryder Asbestos in brake pads and lead in paint did improve the product though. If they weren't so horriffic to human health, we would still be using them. Conversely, I've yet to see an instance where AI has actually improved anything. At best it lets people who are mediocre at their jobs output a higher quantity of mediocre work.
@Mustardfacial @cR0w @jackryder
That's the general idea, yes.

@cR0w
It briefly amazed me, now it just dismays me. I work for the government. Almost all our management and about half the devs are all-in for AI. I'm older and more sceptical. I've seen a few silver bullets fly by in the past, and I don't have much desire to rearrange my job to prompting, reviewing, and hoping the AI code turns out okay. I should be able to hold out until retirement, but younger folks don't have that luxury.Yeah and we're gonna "retire" as they crash the markets and decide all the social security we've paid is theirs not ours

@FuturisticRobert @cR0w @krypt3ia @Viss no shit. My hourly rate starts at 400 an hour, minimum of 4 hours.

"certamente!"

"Che me possino cegamme!"Un po' come quando si prendevano di mira le timorate della Madonna.

Porting MS-DOS 2.0 to the Apple IIe
Although the Apple II range of computers were based around the 6502 processor, they could still run x86 software using expansion cards that were effectively self-contained computers. This way an Apple IIe owner, for example, could install an Intel 8088-based AD8088 co-processor card by ALF Products and run CP/M-86 as well as MS-DOS. Unfortunately, as [Seth Kushniryk] discovered while digging into this MS-DOS option, there don’t seem to be any remaining copies of the accompanying MS-DOS 2.0 software.
The obvious response to this is of course to try and port it once again, which [Seth] did. So far he got it to boot, though it’s not quite ready for prime-time yet. Although the AD8088 card is fairly self-contained, it still has to talk with the Apple IIe system, which poses some challenges. To help with the porting he’s using the MS-DOS 2.0 OEM Adaptation Kit that was released along with the sources a while back.
The Apple II has to first load the basic MS-DOS files into the 8088’s RAM before handing over control, which works now along with the basic functionality. Before [Seth] releases the port to the public he still wants to fix a number of issues, in particular the clock. ProDOS on the Apple IIe encodes the year differently than MS-DOS, so that the latter’s clock is off by a few years, and the console driver is still not quite as robust as [Seth] would like it to be.
Beyond this there is also working with the other cards in the Apple II2 system, including the Super Serial Card, and working with the ProDOS filesystem.

@box464@mastodon.social welp, that was fast

@Kye should have shared an LLM summary instead SMH

The reboot of Digg is shutting down for awhile.
Interesting read, especially the bot problem.

@evan oh that's awful - I'm so sorry.
It's so important to have the soles of your shoes out on the pavement of your streets. You live among neighbours that way. And should never lose one of your community THIS way. 😩
