Work Reform@lemmy.world•BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just introduced the Guaranteed Paid Vacation Act — a bill to guarantee at least two weeks of paid vacation to every full-time worker in America. Over 90 other members of Cong…
21·3 days agoHe can introduce the most sane, rational, logical bills this country has ever seen, and there’s no chance of it passing until after the 2028 election at best. Even with the current progressive momentum, there simply aren’t going to be enough votes to pass anything good (especially enough to overcome any virtually certain veto) unless progressives rout everybody else in both this year and the 2028 elections.

cybersecurity@infosec.pub•Hardware backdoors in x86 CPUs
3·3 days agoIt is thought that only VIA C3 CPUs are affected by this issue. The C-series processors are marketed towards industrial automation, point-of-sale, ATM, and healthcare hardware, as well as a variety of consumer desktop and laptop computers.
While industrial hardware certainly tends to get used far longer than the typical PCs, this CPU is positively ancient (a quarter century old) and chances are even industrial hardware using it has been replaced by now, or is already slated to be soon. The repository this post points to is eight years old as it is.
Looks very Lara Croft on a day off.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Anyone else do this? Probably the best life hack I've discovered by accident
16·4 days agoNobody who actually understands sleep believes it gives energy all by itself. It gives your brain time to do some “house cleaning,” clearing out the cobwebs as it were. Yes, you wake up feeling a bit more refreshed, but that will diminish in short order without breakfast to give your body the fuel it needs to create that energy you’re taking about.

Europe@feddit.org•Europe Approves Bionic Eye to Restore Vision Lost to BlindnessEnglish
13·6 days agoThe device is a long way from restoring normal vision. The images it produces are black and white and the field of vision is extremely narrow. Hodak described the experience to the Financial Times as “kind of like looking through a straw in the center of their vision,” though he added that they see a pathway to color vision and higher acuity.
Unless they can backport the future improvements somehow, I’d wait as long as possible before jumping on it with those limitations.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there any DNS provider that blocks AI websites
15·7 days agoµBlock doesn’t have just one list. You can go into its settings and choose which of many lists to use (and even add your own). There’s probably not going to be a list that manages what you want right now. There are likely hundreds of such sites being made almost every day now with open source AI models.
With so many techies losing their jobs to AI, I’ll bet it seems like a low-hanging fruit method of generating cash to many of them. Most will stop when they find the costs outweigh the benefits (while leaving dead sites up in their wake), but others will just be starting so the cycle will continue.
Yeah, humanity’s fucking itself pretty hard right now.



Frankly, many “centrist” Dems aren’t much better. I bet they’re only “more moderate” because they haven’t been as successful at the “enriching oneself” game, so they’re looking for mercy.
