Items detected as Generic.Malware.AI.DDS can be various types of malware and will be examined and classified at a later stage.

It does not detect is as definite malware, but their trained AI engine seems to conclude or hallucinate a high likelihood. Which may or may not be true.

Or is this actually a virus?

We, you, and they can't tell from this alone. For a definite answer, a deeper analysis will have to be made.

If you buy the book but listen to it as an audiobook, wouldn't buying the audiobook in the first place be an option then?

The article you linked answers most of your questions.

  1. Relative global upstream traffic went down, but not due to other file-sharing protocols but entirely different applications
  2. I2P is not mentioned anywhere in the article, nor any other sharing alternative
  3. VPN is mentioned as a potential reason for not being able to identify torrent traffic; VPN has become much more prevalent and promoted in the scene
  4. The article says, in piracy, streaming websites are much more popular now

It has not been surpassed by another protocol. The relative numbers don't say much about absolute numbers or usage.

And 10 % of global internet upload is certainly no irrelevancy.

OP could have included a summary, description, or quote of what they're referring to and criticizing. They did not.

If you don't own a Roku device, there's no reason to read all that. I certainly don't want to read the full privacy policy either and then guess what OP opened a discussion about or other commenters talk about.

Also, this community is called piracy, not privacy.

I'm confused. The alternative plans are both worse but cost 10 and 15 USD per month while the better one costs 2 USD per month then 4 USD per month? How does that make any sense.

If you do it right, you can have that AI replace all the complicated pirating and downloading process.

How so? I don't see how that would work.


What are you trying to say about an AI fabricating a whole paper? It must have the same issues all trained statistical text prediction "AI" has: Hallucinations. Even if it's extended with sources, without validating them the paper text claims are useless when you can't be sure the source even exists or says what it claims.

There are use cases for AI, but if you are looking for papers for reasoned and documented information, AI is the worst you can use. Because it may look correct, but be confidently incorrect, and you are being misled.

This post is about scientific papers. Not predicted generated text.

Spot the difference:

No IPTV is not a crime

No, IPTV is not a crime

Post title should add a comma.

Depending on what you want to scape, that's a lot of overkill and overcomplication. Full website testing frameworks may not be necessary to scrape. Python with it's tooling and package management may not be necessary.

I've recently extracted and downloaded stuff via Nushell.

  1. Requirement: Knowledge of CSS Selectors
  2. Inspect Website DOM in Webbrowser web developer tools
    1. Identify structure
    2. Identify adequate selectors; testable via browser dev tools console document.querySelectorAll()
  3. Get and query data

For me, my command line terminal and scripting language of choice is Nushell:

let $html = http get 'https://example.org/'
let $meta = $html | query web --query '#infobox .title, #infobox .tags' |  | { title: $in.0.0 tags: $in.1.0 }
let $content = $html | query web --query 'main img' --attribute data-src
$meta | save meta.json

or

1..30 | each {|x| http get $'https://example.org/img/($x).jpg' | save $'($x).jpg'; sleep 100ms }

Depending on the tools you use, it'll be quite similar or very different.

Selenium is an entire web-browser driver meaning it does a lot more and has a more extensive interface because of it; and you can talk to it through different interfaces and languages.

Notably, 5.0.1 was released three days ago. So a fix is available.

The first patched release is version 5.0.1, released 2 days ago.

With Ollama you can install and use various free AI models.

What do you mean by Grammarly costs a lot of money? It has a free tier. Which is quite generous.
