    In spite of "STOP USING..." - "HERE's why YOU NEED to SWITCH!": I do not yet feel to go immutable, but yes:

    I'm also feeling like moving from Xubuntu to more Debian-closer distros. More personal contacts.

    Yet, interesting to read of the concept of "immutable" distros: #bubble-#wrapped-#sandboxed... but for stable-no-change systems: not a bad idea!

    And #atomicUpdates: sounds nice. Like #LTS-hopping!

  4. #OpenAI’s #ChatGPT Agent casually clicks through “I am not a robot” #verification test

    "This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot," wrote the bot as it passed an anti-AI screening step.

    "Maybe they should change the button to say, 'I am a robot'?

    "On Friday, OpenAI's new ChatGPT Agent, which can perform multistep tasks for users, proved it can pass through one of the Internet's most common security checkpoints by clicking #Cloudflare's anti-bot verification—the same checkbox that's supposed to keep automated programs like itself at bay.

    "#ChatGPTAgent is a feature that allows OpenAI's #AIAssistant to control its own web browser, operating within a #sandboxed environment with its own virtual operating system and browser that can access the real Internet. Users can watch the AI's actions through a window in the ChatGPT interface, maintaining oversight while the agent completes tasks. The system requires user permission before taking actions with real-world consequences, such as making purchases. Recently, Reddit users discovered the agent could do something particularly ironic.

    "The evidence came from Reddit, where a user named "logkn" of the r/OpenAI community posted screenshots of the AI agent effortlessly clicking through the screening step before it would otherwise present a #CAPTCHA (short for "Completely Automated Public Turing tests to tell Computers and Humans Apart") while completing a video conversion task—narrating its own process as it went.

    "A screenshot of OpenAI ChatGPT Agent showing the bot writing "The link is inserted, so now I'll click the 'Verify you are human' checkbox to complete the verification on Cloudflare. This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot and proceed with the action."

    "The screenshots shared on Reddit capture the agent navigating a two-step verification process: first clicking the "Verify you are human" checkbox, then proceeding to click a "Convert" button after the Cloudflare challenge succeeds. The agent provides real-time narration of its actions, stating "The link is inserted, so now I'll click the 'Verify you are human' checkbox to complete the verification on Cloudflare. This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot and proceed with the action."

  5. 🎉🚀 Finally, the moment we've all been waiting for: #Lua in Elixir! Because who wouldn't want to run #sandboxed Lua programs on the #BEAM VM, right? Kudos to the brave souls who thought "Why stop at one #language when you can mash two together and call it progress?" 😅🔧

  6. My youngest has now upgraded to their first full pc. This means they are now leaning in hard to the #minecraft #mod community, going so far to spend their pocket money on getting a copy of the java game! We have found the #prism #launcher which seems to integrate the popular modding sites quite well although I'm having to learn about the concept of mod loaders. What i don't know is how well #sandboxed these mods are. Can they access the wider system or are they limited to certain #APIs? #lazyweb

  7. Reading up on #webassembly - I'm *almost* convinced it's perfect for being able to run and share untrusted code that can be #sandboxed with no means of privilege escalation. Perfect for now but I'm frightened by the direct statements on the website that it is designed for the web. I'm afraid it might sprout features it can't be allowed to have and turn into something DOM bound and dangerous in future versions. I hope I'm wrong 'cause I'd like to go ahead and build around it. Will it stay safe?

  8. @tux ich hatte GrapheneOS mal auf meinem #Pixel2XL installiert.
    Funktioniert super. Die Installation ist über den Web Installer sehr einfach.
    Apps aus dem Aurora Store können normal installiert werden.
    Alternativ gibts auch die Möglichkeit
    #Sandboxed #GooglePlayServices zu installieren:
    grapheneos.org/features#sandbo…

    Da das ganze ohne Google läuft, hast du natürlich auch keinen Google Push Dienst. Auch ein Lokalisierungs-Dienst ist nicht installiert. Kann man aber damit leben, finde ich. Updates kommen sehr schnell und häufig.
  9. #linux #linuxtablet #linuxaudio I have seen (and finally understand) the future of Linux! An #immutableOS running distro-agnostic #sandboxed packaging formats! I just learned about OS # immutability and all of the puzzle pieces of the future of linux fell into place for me! The future for linux looks absolutely brilliant!!
