A PhD student used both Claude and Gemini as an AI therapist.

She vented her frustrations around getting a cancer diagnosis, and joked about how much it was costing the healthcare system.

The difference in responses is staggering.

How to fix the Crowdstrike thing:

1. Boot Windows into safe mode
2. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike
3. Delete C-00000291*.sys
4. Repeat for every host in your enterprise network including remote workers
5. If you're using BitLocker jump off a bridge

Maybe BetterHelp should invest all that marketing money into having baseline moderation, oversight and vetting of mental health providers, accountability processes, user-informed privacy practices, and fair pay w/o needing to take on 40 clients per week. https://t.co/zszSJGdTWq

General reminder. If you have Palo Alto firewalls that were exposed to CVE-2023-3400, get them checked thoroughly. We’re seeing dozens of threat actors active on single devices. Just patching wasn’t the end of this.

I've gotten to that point in life where I say things like "Ooh, Google Drive has Dark Mode now?!?" with unironic enthusiasm and excitement

[LP @jotunvillur]

All three conditions that must exist for this CVE:

1. Running PanOS 10.2 or greater
2. Have GlobalProtect gateway enabled
3. Have device telemetry enabled

Places to check for these:
1. Device > Software
2. Network > GlobalProtect > Gateways
3. Device > Setup > Telemetry

and then they blamed "cybersecurity errors."

[Either Ellen or Dr. Chapman @diggingellen]

Today, @Facebook removed my link to a Kansas Reflector story for "Cybersecurity" issues. I reached out and apparently @Facebook has removed ALL links to their website right after they linked to this story on how Facebook censors climate change reporting. https://t.co/ybwAw7dXhx

AT&T has officially confirmed it.

Remember the first time you used Google search? It was like magic. After years of progressively worsening search quality from Altavista and Yahoo, Google was literally stunning, a gateway to the very best things on the internet.
