Lemmy doesn’t even have an automod last I knew. And if there is now, and it’s anything like the Reddit one, it’s just regex. You can’t really do much more than pattern matching with regex.
I absolutely do. Look at the Huawei Trifold for an example. It’s overly expensive, and has issues, which is why I wouldn’t get it. But the concept is decent. A phone that unfolds into an incredibly thin tablet. What’s not to like?
They do fight it. They cracked down on it a couple months back. Didn’t stop all users, and it wouldn’t stop just asking a friend in the respective country to buy it for you and pay them on the side.
Which is my point. You’re coming at this like it’s Joe Everybody is being discussed, when we are talking about an entire country which is actively succeeding at influencing other countries.
Except it’s cross posts, which isn’t even a repeat, it’s just the same content. They just got their panties in a twist because the world didn’t work the way they wanted it to for 3 whole minutes.
This is a weird thing to get offended on when you’re the one that brought up the thing it’s countering. Anyone saying it is just being pedantic, and while they are technically correct they (usually) aren’t suggesting people kill themselves instead of going vegan. You getting offended at pedantry is… odd.
You are all talking about “happy path” situations. Yeah, if the people involved are honest you’re absolutely right.
I’m talking about when a government funded effort, with agents in all reaches of the world, make a concerted effort to get their hands on tech, and trick that tech into working for them.
Are you saying that geolocation of a starlink unit is difficult from the starlink satellite network?
In 99% of cases? No. In the case of a state actor intentionally wanting to obsfucate the location? Absolutely.
Do you see a moral dimension to this?
You’re either missing the point or ignoring it. If you bothered to read around that sentence, you’d realize that in context it has nothing to do with morals, and everything to do with other companies with a financial incentive failing to do it. If a company loses out on 75+% of their profit when I pay for YouTube out of India, and fail to stop me despite active efforts, how do you expect a company to manage it against a state actor.
This explains nothing. Russia infiltrates governments and your answer is “yeah, well starlink should just be honest.”
I’m curious on how you envision they identify these units? If they don’t activate until they are near the Ukrainian border, how do they know what is Russian controlled vs Ukrainian controlled?
As for the payment side, YouTube can’t even get a proper handle on users getting region pricing at a fraction of the cost, by simply using a VPN, and they have skin in the game for preventing cross region abuse. Starlink has no reason outside sanctions to give a fuck where their payments are coming from, and you’re talking about state actors that can literally provide a real bank and address owned by a shell individual that passes any check you can think of beyond highly invasive levels no one would accept.
Geolocation is extremely unreliable. Let’s look at one aspect, GPS: In North America you don’t normally deal with it beyond being in between buildings or under a tunnel, but the moment you’re flying in airspace near Russia, GPS can and has literally shown the location being thousands of miles away.
I get the musk hate, but you’re acting like a grandma down the road is illegally using it, and ignoring the fact that it’s a country known to have operatives worldwide, multiple hacking groups, and resources you likely can’t even imagine.
There are already hardware solutions that can bypass those. Utilize video output from a PC, interrupt user input to react, add in humanesque delay. There’s no reason cheat software has to be as blatant as Minecraft auto fight cheats.
Can they be caught? Sure. Human pushes the limits too far, manual checks to see if you react like a human, etc. but you’re talking about a 100% effective anticheat, and I’m telling you there is no such thing.
It’s like claiming you can make an internet connected device that is “unhackable”.
Tbh it’d be nice if Lemmy actually put the reason given in place of the comment instead of just “removed”. That way you wouldn’t even need to respond, just properly articulate the why in the removal itself.
Not to be a pedant, but “they are” is a much less jarring way to refer to someone of unknown gender than “he/she is.”
You’re talking about running everything other than graphics rendering (not graphics compute mind) and UI input server side, including physics?
Apart from the fact that this would be inherently expensive as you mentioned, it would also require extremely fast internet with extremely low ping or jitter.
It would also not prevent aim botting, bots in general, or input related exploits like macros and “turbo mode”.
I’ll just reiterate what they said. There is no such thing as a perfect anticheat. It is impossible.
No, no, they hit the nail pretty squarely on the head.
There is speculation that they literally bombed a meeting that was discussing that cease fire, considering the high ranking individuals that were present.
Any element can be made into a state you can eat, drink, or breathe. Doesn’t mean you’ll survive the attempt, nor even properly get to attempt it.
Blocking telemetry would not include blocking 8.8.8.8 though.
Ah, thought you were the other commenter as well, apologies. One day I’ll learn to check usernames
Having cleaned bathrooms before, I’m not sure how you envision it happens. Do you imagine they attach a host to the sink and just spray it down?
And even if that was the case, floor drains exist.
I don’t understand why you are choosing this hill to die on, this is a solved problem. The majority of European stalls employ floor to ceiling design, and have for many years.
