Slop corpos are out there trying to convince you how smart they are by... checks notes running insecure software

Remember, anthropomorphizing AI is just marketing. The AI didn't "go rogue", it had a severe security bug.

Duckduckfedi, why does the phrase "they get along like a house on fire" mean they get along well? The fire might like the house, but the house certainly doesn't like the fire. If anything I think that expression should mean it's an abusive relationship

Should I just install a voice modulator on my work laptop at this point? Or is there a way to inject inaudible noise into my audio that people won't hear but will fuck with biometric fingerprinting?

I can't even find the setting to turn it off outside of a meeting. The only time I got a chance to disable it was when it initially told me "someone's using interpretation in this meeting", and I just happened to click the "more info" button. After that, the setting and to just be lost into the ether

Apparently Teams has a new "interpretation" feature in meetings. I guess it translates your speech to people who turn it on?

By default it will simulate your voice using biometric data! No thank you, I turned that shit off as soon as I saw the option. What a huge invasion of privacy.

Fuck Microsoft and their lack of understanding of consent.

Down to 2 dilations per day today!

I hate Ubuntu so much

Realized my Ethernet port on the docking station of my work laptop wasn't working this morning. Which of course lead me down a rabbit hole of "why do I have like 5 different kernel versions installed on this damn thing?"

Apparently if anything functioning "unexpectedly", or "not as intended" needs to get reported as a security incident. Oh boy

responsible AI use work training

Oh, and 2 loads of laundry have been cleaned, the one that was on the drying rack has been out away

- hour long walk after lunch
- cut the grass
- did yoga
- dilated twice (still need to do the evening one)

Duckduckfedi, what is the centre of the bread (the non-crust part) called?

Survived my first day back at work

Today in parenting:

I played hide and seek with my 4yo. I asked her how high I should count. She said 600. So I spent like 10 minutes counting to 600

Dear children seeking lemonade by the park,

If you come up to me and misgender me saying "Hey man" repeatedly until I answer, I definitely won't want to buy lemonade from you

Fedi, what is the value of this #goose?

Yoga today was a lot of sun salutations. I'm exhausted
