We recently forced a check for MFA across all company social accounts. It’s a good time to go email your PR/marketing team and ask for a screenshot of each website’s settings for audit purposes.
Reacher Season 1 on Amazon Prime Video is actually shocking good? No joke. Go check it out. It knows exactly what it is and that is joyous. It’s a show entirely how all your problems are solved by being tall.
I would not show teenage boys this. They’re going to ask to get that surgery where they break your legs to make you taller. Reacher is basically tallness redpill TV. It’s going to absolutely destroy their minds. The fact you can just be tall and that means you win.
Just going to say it: 2013 was the last good Internet. Full of arrow to the knee, chonky boi, overly attached girlfriend, do it for the vine, electro house, rage comics, bad luck brian, one does not simply walk into Mordor, taylor swift goat, etc. There has been no Culture since.
Imagine being in NATO Command controlling all your drones with AI and a random input makes it generate a catgirl on the big main screen and crash all the bombs on friendly territory and generals are angrily demanding you explain how AI works and why this happened but you can’t.
You look through the input and it’s like “CATEGORY: GROUND RAPID RESPONSE” which some coder last month had shortened to “CAT:GRR” and passed the user interface element to the AI instead of the full text.
And years later they recover a full corpus of the lost AI training material and there was a blog in 2003 that posted a new catgirl going rawr every day for like 11 years all tagged with “cat” and “grr!”
If you are a parent please do NOT post your kids faces on public accounts it should be restricted to friends only and even then maybe you are incapable of gaining consent. You are a guardian not owner of their self. The idea of infinitely reproducible photos outside an in-person physical medium or mailed distribution is very recent. It is not normal. You do not need to submit to it and shouldn’t.
They understand that AI is going to clone them for sexual ends and Internet-wide photo trawlers will index their biometrics in a database forever and the age of the selfie is coming to an end.
People are advertising AI cloning from just 10 good pictures. This is something a teenager with a mid-tier graphics card can learn in a few hours. Pretty soon it’s going to be on integrated graphics in a laptop. And there are already AI services that will do it for you. It is a new world. Please do not make choices your child cannot fix.
Millennials and uncool GenZ are just fucked forever but the younger ones know they have to opt-out as soon as possible. The stuff from teenage spaces that leaks over into public is horrifying. They know something older people who are too smart to tell the truth don’t. They know.
There was a time you could defeat almost all email account compromise by just… turning off legacy authentication in Exchange. You became a ghost. That’s how all attacker tools worked. Now they have upgraded to account for modern authentication. YOU CANNOT STOP improving. You are aging quickly.
