221·6 days agoThey still think they can morally shame the fascists into being good again. They are unable to see or accept that simply saying “that’s wrong” or “that’s against the rules” has never stopped a fascist in all of history.

News@lemmy.world•Iran begins mining Strait of Hormuz as Washington's tanker escort claim collapses - Türkiye Today
145·6 days agoWright posted that “the US Navy successfully escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz to ensure oil remains flowing to global markets,” crediting President Donald Trump with “maintaining stability of global energy during the military operations against Iran.”
Within hours, a senior source in the IRGC’s naval force told Iranian outlet Iran Now that the claim “has no basis in truth,” insisting that no US-escorted tanker had transited the strait.
The source described the announcement as part of a “media war and attempts to mislead public opinion,” adding that the strait remains under “precise surveillance” by Iranian forces and that “any military movement in the area is fully monitored.”
Wright subsequently deleted the post without public explanation, undermining a week of administration messaging aimed at convincing the world that commercial traffic would soon resume.
For an administration that relies so heavily on propaganda lies, they are remarkably terrible at lying.
In any case, even if it were true and not a pathetic lie, Donald Trump would deserve no credit for slightly mitigating the problems Donald Trump caused when Donald Trump decided to start bombing Iran and slaughtering its civilians.

Privacy@lemmy.world•US state laws push age checks into the operating systemEnglish
0·8 days agoIf you fail to do this negligently, there’s a $2,500 fine; if you do so intentionally, it’s $7,500. That’ll intimidate all those dotcom billionaires.
It’s also about driving the players they can’t control (e.g. volunteer open-source developers) out of the tech world. Only corporations will be allowed to develop software.
Combine this with Google locking down Android development, the moves to make it unaffordable to own hardware, and the attempts to prevent the use of E2EE and VPNs, and it’s a multi-front global push to take computing out of the hands of the people. We are supposed to rent our tech from corporations with thorough surveillance in place, and use it only in the ways they permit. Anything else is considered subversive and a threat.

Cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works•PleaseFix Flaw Lets Hackers Access 1Password Vault via Comet AI BrowserEnglish
0·11 days agoSince Comet is integrated with 1Password, the hijacked AI could be steered to open the user’s unlocked vault. Using instructions hidden in English and Hebrew to evade detection, the AI could search for credentials or even change the master password. This resulted in a full account takeover, giving the attacker unrestricted access to the user’s passwords.
Just say no to AI assistants in your browser and OS.

23·11 days agoIt’s interesting that in the screenshot in the article, the CPU is identified as a Ryzen 5 7430U but then it gives the codename “Lucienne”, which is the 5500U’s name. So apparently they didn’t fake it perfectly.
