I played Forza Horizon 4 and the Drivatars are pretty convincing. They make exactly the kind of mistakes on the track that I make and they can be challenging but beatable in a way that's much more fun than any other racing game I had played before.

Nothing in the licensing scheme changed, at all.
This statement is incorrect. The SDK had specific source files placed exclusively under the SDK license, and the remainder of the repository dual licensed between GPL 3 and the SDK license. So the licensing scheme did change.

I get why you'd suggest the previous commenter is out of touch with what users want, but what does that have to do with being a software engineer?
Does Croc have a big enough fanbase to be able to pull off an exclusivity deal?
I've had this one in my images folder for at least a couple of decades. No idea where I saved it from:
What an inflammatory headline.
If you're assuming that we have the technology now in its prototypical early-adopter phase then your estimate of 2030 is for adoption of LLMs and generative AI.
We don't have even prototypical AGI yet, and it is AGI which is necessary to "do all the work." The s-curve of technological adoption assumes that the technology exists at the start of the curve. This is what I meant when I said "I really don't think we are anywhere close to this."
He refers to himself as "Ba3" but a bishop on a3 would be a dark-square bishop 🤔

The day is coming when AI & robots can do all work
I really don't think we are anywhere close to this. I don't even expect to see it in my lifetime.
Fuck Zuck.
Older games are better than a lot of modern AAA slop, but not for the reasons she describes.
I was hoping she would talk about game design, or writing, mechanics, player agency, gameplay before graphics or literally anything else but she spent nearly 15 minutes only talking about tired culture wars talking points like, "why don't women look feminine aymore," "why are characters designed for diversity/inclusion first before story," "Concord sucks lol."
Yeah AAA writing is shit, please change the record so all the sweaty neckbeard virgins complaining about Aloy's facial hair can crawl back in their caves. So sick of hearing about it.
She shouts out Asmongold in her comments. Disgraceful.
The binary blobs match which checksums? The ones provided by the ventoy developer?
GLIM is an alternative that's much simpler (it just uses Grub configs) so it is easy to audit:
Please don't continue to recommend Ventoy. It has serious and unanswered security questions hanging over it, and the developer seems to be completely AWOL.
IMHO it risks making (new) people think that it's the official logo that you've parodied and creating that association in their mind.

Revival Hijack supply-chain attack threatens 22,000 PyPI packages
> Threat actors are utilizing an attack called "Revival Hijack," where they register new PyPi projects using the names of previously deleted packages to conduct supply chain attacks. > > The technique "could be used to hijack 22K existing PyPI packages and subsequently lead to hundreds of thousands of malicious package downloads," the researchers say.
If you ever install python software or libraries using pip install
then you need to be aware of this. Since PyPI is allowing re-use of project names when a project is deleted, any python project that isn't being actively maintained could potentially have fallen victim to this issue, if it happened to depend on a package that was later deleted by its author.
This means installing legacy python code is no longer safe. You will need to check every single dependency manually to verify that it is safe.
Hopefully, actively maintained projects will notice if this happens to them, but it still isn't guaranteed. This makes me feel very uneasy installing software from PyPI, and it's not the first time this repository has been used for distributing malicious packages.
It feels completely insane to me that a software repository would allow re-use of names of deleted projects - there is so much that can go wrong with this, and very little reason to justify allowing it.
Vladimir Kramnik admits to VIOLATING Fair Play Policy
YouTube Video

Description: "Featured is a playthrough of a blitz chess game between Rodrigo Vasquez and Vladimir Kramnik from an Early Titled Tuesday event which was held on October 17th, 2023. Kramnik recently admitted, via a YouTube comment on this topic of fair play surrounding him, that he played several tournaments under someone else’s chess\.com account. This act violates chess\.com’s Fair Play Policy. Kramnik played under Denis Khismatullin’s account, “Krakozia”. I share reasons why this is a violation of fair play policy, how a player can be negatively impacted because of it, and provide Kramnik’s YouTube comments where he attempts to explain it all."

Malicious Google Search Ads can now fake the displayed URL to push malware downloads
Most people know at this point that when searching for a popular software package to download, you should be very careful to avoid clicking on any of the search ads that appear, as this has become an extremely common vector for distributing malware to unsuspecting users.
If you thought that you could identify these malicious ads by checking the URL below the ad to see if it directs to the legitimate site, think again! Malware advertisers have found a way to use Google's Ad platform to fake the URL shown with the ad to make it appear like a legitimate ad for the product when in fact, clicking the ad will redirect to an attacker controlled site serving malware.
Don't click on search ads or, even better, use an ad-blocker so that you never see them in the first place!
Free Download Manager site redirected Linux users to malware for years
A reported Free Download Manager supply chain attack redirected Linux users to a malicious Debian package repository that installed information-stealing malware.
The malware used in this campaign establishes a reverse shell to a C2 server and installs a Bash stealer that collects user data and account credentials.
Kaspersky discovered the potential supply chain compromise case while investigating suspicious domains, finding that the campaign has been underway for over three years.
My previous post does not appear in the (local) community that I posted it to
[SOLVED]: The issue was caused by having "Show read posts" unticked in Settings. This will hide your own posts from you!
I recently made a post[1] to this community about a bug that I experienced and reported.
The post does not appear in the New
feed for /c/lemmy_support nor does it appear in my user profile under Posts
[2].
However the post does have 3 replies (from users on multiple different instances) which means that other users can see it across the fediverse, so it's not a federation issue. (Also, my account and the community are both hosted on the same instance - lemmy.ml).
I was not subscribed to /c/lemmy_support at the time I made that post, but I am subscribed now to see if that affects my visibility of this post.
Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding how lemmy works?
Interestingly, if I view my profile while logged out, it does show the posts that I made, but when logged in it shows zero posts in my profile.

Another user's name is appearing on my lemmy.ml front page
Requirements Is this a bug report? For questions or discussions use https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support Did you check to see if this issue already exists? Is this only a single bug? Do not put multipl...
See the images attached to the linked bug report. Where it usually says my username in the top-right, another user's name appeared. This happened twice in the last two days.
I submitted the bug to the lemmy-ui project, but I'm not certain if this is a lemmy-ui problem, or a problem with the specific infrastructure setup of lemmy.ml, or even a backend issue.
Any advice on whether I should post this bug report to somewhere else for greater visibility would be welcome. This could be indicative of a fairly serious security issue (or it could be a completely cosmetic bug).
