[Apple, 최초의 공간 컴퓨터 Apple Vision Pro 발표]

메타버스 관계자들의 최후의 희망(?)인 애플의 AR 기기가 발표(사기꾼들이 이야기하는 메타버스와 이런 AR 기기는 관계가 없다라는 생각이지만...).그러나, 애플이 디자인했어도 쓰고 있으면 우스워 보이는 것은 어쩔 수 없다. 가격은 $3,499이고 내년초에 미국 발매.

[구글 픽셀폰 잦은 에러로 신뢰성 바닥]

❝글로벌 시장 조사 플랫폼 스태티스타(Statista)에 따르면, 픽셀폰 사용자의 거의 60%가 새로운 폰을 구매할 때 다른 브랜드로 변경할 것이라고 말했다고 IT매체 폰아레나가 4일(현지시간) 전했다❞

7번째 제품이 나왔다면 개선이 되어야 하는데 그렇지 못하다라는 것이 문제의 심각성을 보여주는 것. 구글이 자사 하드웨어 사업에 진심이라면 자체 AP같은 것보다 기본을 먼저 점검해야 한다.

[유튜브 공세가 매섭다…카톡, 지금 속도라면 하반기 추월당해]

유튜브가 카톡의 월간 활성 사용자수를 위협하고 있다라는 것보다 두 서비스 모두 사용자수가 감소 추세라는 것에 더 눈길이 가는 기사.

유튜브는 틱톡 때문이라고 할 수 있지만 경쟁상대가 없다고 할 수 있는 카톡은 왜? 젊은 층에서 다른 메신저를 이용하는 경우가 늘고 있기 때문일까?

Shouldnt you be going home and researching common terms and techniques in IT?
Shouldnt you be using the resources in front of you to solve the problem?

The lawsuit said the company sought to retain the data for "its own potential use," despite repeatedly assured its users that they could delete voice recordings collected from its Alexa voice assistant and geolocation information collected by the Alexa app.

Under the FTC's proposed settlement with Amazon, which must be approved by a federal court, the company would have to pay a $25 million civil penalty and delete inactive child accounts and certain voice recordings and geolocation information.

All of the videos were stored unencrypted on Ring’s network and could be downloaded, viewed, shared or disclosed by any employee or any contractor, "regardless of whether the employee or contractor actually needed that access to perform his or her job function," according to the complaint.

The complaint highlights one Ring employee who viewed "thousands" of recordings from 81 women, some of whom were other Ring employees, between June and August 2017.

What they're saying: "Ring's disregard for privacy and security exposed consumers to spying and harassment," said Samuel Levine, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection.

"The FTC’s order makes clear that putting profit over privacy doesn’t pay," he added.

Ring and Amazon said in a statement to Axios that it disagreed with the FTC’s allegations and denied violating the law.

#################################
#####By going after the popular Ring video doorbell service and Alexa, the agency can finally say it tackled parts of Amazon's grip on consumer data and tried to reel in a Big Tech player's means of surveillance.
#####.....
#####It would also have to alert the FTC about incidents of unauthorized access or exposure of customers’ videos.

Idea for a comic zine.

I think people are making understanding Linux FAR too complicated. I think people would benefit from a guide to what Linux is, what are distros/flavors, how is it the same/different from MacOS and Windows, and what are some common easy to use distros to use if you want to switch to a Linux distro.

Non-tech people get easily overwhelmed and embarrassed that they don't know about tech. So making a comic may make it easier for people.

I saw I recently and cannot find it again :-/

Details of the comic:
- some folks solve small problems in time
- no one really appreciates it
- One problem grows to a biiiiig fire
- one person comes and solves it as a "firefighter" and is celebrated as THE hero.

I think the day I found out about root kits was The Day The Music Died for me.
I was doing self led IT courses during the pandemic and I read that shit and I said... EXCUSE ME? Did I read that right???

And then recently my instructor (different IT program) told me more of what they can DO ON A BIZ NETWORK.

Did I say the man in the show used his WORK COMPUTER to check out the USB???

Idk how sys admins dont age 25 years every time an employee pulls that shit.

For my followers: Root kits are a type of malware (think virus but much worse.) They basically infect your operating system and the kernel beneath.
They can be automated or controlled by a hacker.
They give admin access to the hacker on your computer. Root kits are difficult to detect, especially when they are well made. Difficult to remove, or impossible.
Some root kits can infect your files. So your HDD is ruined. So are your FILES.
Nightmares are made of these.

A man picks up a random usb he sees a stranger leave on the train. He INSERTS IT INTO HIS COMPUTER. 😱
That was scarier than the snuff livestream he found on it, IMO.

(Hips too wide. Plus bad hip.)

Work From Home just makes SENSE in the IT and Software engineering fields (if you require it as an employee.)

Disabled folk are often left out of the work from home debate. 😒 I have enough voices in my head. I dont need to hear people 5 offices down shooting the breeze while im trying to concentrate.

When you're at the bottom rungs of a career ladder (or just a job ladder), you're expected to be 'burning the candle at both ends', 'running your fingers to the bone', going above and beyond, running this way and that,
All while deftly managing office politics.

A lot of the stuff in IT can be done at HOME. Especially when you're #disabled.
I purposely chose a path that wouldnt be heavy on customer interaction and climbing through walls connecting cables. 😒

"On November 7, 2021, DUSD detected unusual activity within its digital environment." blahblahblahsteps.... "That process was completed on April 5, 2023, after which DUSD worked quickly to
notify you of this incident." (on May 3, 2023)

So 543 days later, they notify.

And they think this is just fine?

@nickheer@c.im Cool, so a couple things it could be, and this is with my IT Support hat on!

1. Password needs to be reset
2. Office VPN host may be having issues/need to kick a session
3. Office may be having internet connection issues

I'm guessing it's somewhere between those 3, but your friendly
#IT team should be able to help you out.

Vor zwei Wochen hat die NZZ über die grosse Verwirrung rund um #KI geschrieben:
1️⃣ #Hype-Tech wird eingesetzt, ohne die Passgenauigkeit zu #evaluieren.
2️⃣ Was zu hohen wirtschaftlichen/sozialen Kosten führt.
3️⃣ KI ist oft schwer #nachvollziehbar.
4️⃣ Bei #IT- #Projekten wird regelmässig vergessen, vorher die #Ziele zu klären, bei KI sowieso.

Ganz wichtig, danke! 👍

Aber die Ursache für die #Probleme der KI wird auf den #Zufall geschoben.

Das finde ich sehr unfair! ✋
