    Microsoft creates AI bot that spams Twitter with Overt Racism

    Some fragments from /pol/ https://archive.is/ckcY1 (didn't read, possibly NSFW)   No it isn't. Comes off as Just Another Confused Clickbait Non-event, really. Basically a series of Twitter personas made ~taboo~ tweets at 'an AI' in hopes of generating predictably absurd output, and when it...

    Microsoft creates AI bot that spams Twitter with Overt Racism

    So... has anyone managed to read overt racism into the decisions of HFT algorithms yet?

    Microsoft creates AI bot that spams Twitter with Overt Racism

    No offense, but if you think a circa 2016 'Twitter chatbot scandal' constitutes 'the discussion' to begin with... I mean, what's next? 4chan Posts A Bad Thing? Anyway, #praying4RedScareBot.

    Feedback Needed. VMmanager: SolusVM Alternative Holding 70% of the East European Market

    I thought the same thing when I had an account with ITLDC. I only had a few VM, but the menu nevertheless listed options for every possible service as if they were all active in the account. More superfluous than overwhelming, maybe. & yeah re: cosmetics. Fond memories after introducing ...'s...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    "I have come here to perpetually cull data and kick ass... and I'm never out of data." The thing is that Roddy Piper eventually runs out of bubble gum, so how can this tension be resolved without paradoxically perceiving the strange new Nada as that which he had come to destroy?

    Sell me a VPS

    Haha, not quite what I was getting at here, but I recall liking that movie. Now why can't I find that write-up on the musician attempting to play the world's oldest vulture-bone flute (carved from the hollow wing bone) in the presence of a living griffon vulture? Seems to have vanished from...

    Virtual6.net Ceases Operations for unforeseen reasons :)

    @graeme pretty terrible in my experience. Unrelated to this necro, but I had a similar experience to what @drmike is saying. My final support request with OVH went unanswered for ~10 days. Service was unusable the entire time. When they finally answered, they offered a free month as...

    GoDaddy Enters The Hourly Billing Cloud Market

    Yeah man, precisely 14 million of the 13+ million happy customers are small business customers, duh. Also lol re: 62 million domains (i.e. precisely the current age of Hulk Hogan divided by one million).

    GoDaddy Enters The Hourly Billing Cloud Market

    Untrue in the Canadian version: $7.99 CAD = $6.12 USD at this juncture. The '14 million small business customers' is definitely a lie too (comedic, at least), but it's a @DomainBop post so yeah, can't really expect much when it comes to numbers. I mean, really, imagine a universe where...

    The Internet of Things (IOT) Should Not Include your Sex Toys

    so tl;dr a dull waiting game until the hardware backdoors planted in all of the IoT monitoring devices are exploited in order to drive popcorn sales in the #SecurityTheatreLeisureClass markets? EDIT: Some comedy options from ~2.5 years ago...

    Staminus sites offline - massively hacked

    I hadn't heard of Staminus prior to this thread and don't quite understand the critique (without prejudice). Intrusion aside, how is it that they've 'hedged the entire business on security theatre' if they only offer DDoS protection and seem to be effective in that area? Or do they offer other...

    Sell me a VPS

    They want €30 up front, but won't accept the money if your billing address is different than your company/business/personal/whatever address, so don't bother if the two don't 'match'. Unnecessarily overzealous fraud checking imo (I don't even think places like Amazon demand that). Didn't demand...

    Staminus sites offline - massively hacked

    Hrm, yes, true. *posts perennial drama thread, catalysing next sideshow in the Data Surfacing Security Theatre cycle* *complains of there being no end to the drama* Just overclock that logic and formalize it into an endless for loop, chances are the narrative will eventually melt down into a...
