<p>I think this depends on your location, because in some places you really want to view a radar map. "Rain in $CITY" is practically useless for me. Still, the (static?) map in the depicted app shouldn't take 1GB.</p>

<p>While I don't disagree with the individual complaints, I've seen this niche go from running scuffed OSes on underpowered Synologies or building DIY NASes with limited case options like the Node 304, to multiple hot swap NASes running great x86 chips (and memory slots) and many DIY build paths including 3D printed cases. Things probably suck for those reliant on Synology, but I'm stoked for this hobby, especially when Minisforum/Aoostar to start pumping out Wildcat Lake stuff.</p>

<p>Diagnosing why a bug happened is interesting. Sometimes it points to a communication shortcoming that the project/organization should strive to improve on. Of course, if you're slinging code with a few buddies, it might not matter.<p>In the worst/most paranoid case (xz) you might also want to know who planted a backdoor and where else they made commits to.</p>

<p>I really dislike this paradigm that the user needs to become a human DBMS, and rename/link files or write template rules for the media server to understand. It was understandable back in XBMC days but it just feels silly now. Surely it can extract some Musicbrainz-like fingerprint from the media instead of only relying on filename.<p>But the truly disgusting part is how XBMC/Kodi/Plex/Jellyfin just reassigns the files to another show and there is absolutely no way to audit what's going on other than realizing that some show has two files per episodes or some show you don't have is in the library. Why can't this be easier to inspect?<p>After two decades I just gave up and use the Home Video mode (just show me my directories mode) on Jellyfin to avoid having to deal with metadata.</p>

<p>The format supports progressive decoding but IIRC none of the current browser implementations support it. The first Chrome and Firefox implementations did, and I think it's on their roadmap for the new Rust implementation. No idea about WebKit/Safari.<p>Edit: the format also supports region-of-interest decoding and I suspect you can make some cool maps or fractal images with both features. But I think they're not quite prioritizing implementing that right now.</p>

<p>To most modern users, web browsers kinda suck if they don't know URLs. For example, if they want to find an item they saw on Amazon, searching it in browser history just sucks compared to the in-service search.<p>A lot of users also use browsers like they use their Desktop folder, which is to say they have 100s of tabs open. The fact that apps enforce quitting and limited state is a plus to them, hence mobile Chrome adding an automatic inactive tabs cleanup feature (which mobile FF removed for some reason?).<p>Browsers really should've adapted to this reality with some UI/UX changes, like showing relevant site history. But none of them are actually interested in improving UI/UX, and the few changes that do get through just piss off long-term users.</p>

<p>I can understand complaints about Metroid but Star Fox fans were probably expecting jack squat from the start of the year. Putting it in the last movie is a pretty strong indicator for more content.<p>A lot of Nintendo's remakes end up being training exercises for the real deal, such as Metroid 2 remake to Dread. Meanwhile, some of the laid off devs here might have never seen a properly produced title with zero crunch and anomalies. Not every title should be an auteur title, but we have too many auteurs and we want more auteurs.</p>

<p>Ah, now I get everyone's confusion. My understanding of the attack is that it involves (1) prompt injection of the AI Studio agent to replace the URL value ("replacing BANG...") and (2) phishing of the creator to click the link to exfil data, using the official looking "[Important Notice from YouTube]" banner. As some point out, this is like two prompt injections.<p>Perhaps Google was also confused by the author's explanation.</p>

<p>I'm a little confused why so many here are making it seem like this particular attack is completely unstoppable. Just don't include private videos in training or inference. My guess is that the agent that runs this viewer comment aggregation feature has the same context as the one that runs other AI studio things, but attack or not, this isn't functionally correct to begin with. This attack implies that if Samsung has a private video for a new rollable phone, they might see "Viewers are excited about Samsung Roll 1" from this. The viewer comment aggregation feature should have the same information as the viewers to form an accurate summary, and the AI studio suggestion agent should have private context.<p>Now, the bigger problem of being able to make a "[Important Notice from YouTube]" banner might be harder to solve, but they could at least remove links from the input and output.</p>

<p>I don't think they can 100% fix it that way, but the least they can do is strip links before and after the prompt and not let the model have access to private videos.<p>Has anyone tested if this AI Studio model can be manipulated into editing/deleting videos, or showing a link that does so? Maybe that would get their attention.</p>

<p>That also leads to my other (perhaps main) issue with this idea, which is that it requires some level of coordination or synchronicity with the delivery courier that's simply inconvenient for both of us. I've lived in apartments that 90% of couriers of any service cannot find their way around, because they weren't simple take-elevator-and-walk-to-unit designs, so I thanked the stars when we got lockers at the gate. Perhaps I could leave my packaging in a locker... but that just sounds like we re-invented trash collection? And actually, this is why I never used grocery services like Amazon Fresh or Instacart. I don't think grocery delivery is as solved as you think it is.<p>The implied time synchronicity also sounds like a nightmare. Taiwan does timed trash collection (you have to throw the bag into a garbage truck when it comes playing Fur Elise at 7pm) and there's a reason it hasn't spread.<p>I just think this is overcomplicating matters instead of just making the package generically disposable, which seems to be what's happening anyways.</p>

<p>That idea is intriguing but brings up a lot of questions. If I live out in the middle of nowhere, order something but take a long time to open it, when does the Amazon truck come back to take the packaging? If there's a million of us procrastinators, is it really that much better than normal centralized garbage collection? Milk bottle delivery and collection only worked because the product naturally had a time limit, and once home refrigeration took off, the practice went away because people didn't consume on the same schedule.<p>FWIW most Amazon packages I get nowadays are just heavy paper anyways.</p>
