Reading the text it seems to me this is due to a very widespread issue in Spain and other southern European countries: people don’t care about the warnings because there are too many false positives.

That’s why people here, when they hear the fire alarm they just wait for it to go off: the probability that it is actually a fire is minuscule… but the alarm triggers a lot.

Not sure how to actually solve this… but I’m also not making excuses for what happened. High speed trains is not the same as a fire alarm in some office building, the people in charge should be held responsible somehow.

I’m trying to do some GPU unlocking work with some oldish mining cards (NVIDIA CMP 170HX 10G) to fully unlock them to be used in LLMs, and Sol 6.1 keeps refusing to do the work on the basis of “cyber concerns”. It’s highly frustrating. Sonnet 5.5 is even worst.

Luna 6.1 is fine with it, but the results aren’t good enough. I’m going to try Terra 6.1 (from the post, I should expect about the same results). And hope it doesn’t complain as much about these non existent cyber security risks that for some reason it keeps raising.

P.S. I also tried Deepseek Flash 4.1, but the results simply didn’t cut it.

P.P.S. This all investigation was a major eye opener on why we need to run local models or be forever tied to some artificial limits to AI for the masses.

The real lesson that the USA should be taking from these elections, is that any non-3rd world country with more than 1 party (not looking at you China) can count next to 100% of the votes in a matter of hours.

There is nothing competent about Lula. It’s a populist “corrupticracy”.

I really can’t understand how Brazilians (that actually have a multi party system) keep having to choose between two awful candidates.

Europe really can’t even do something as simple as replacing office with all the good options available, but we are pretending they are going to replace Starlink, SpaceX, Anthropic/OpenAI and Tesla…

It’s ridiculous, that an all continent with probably the best educated people on the planet it’s completely stalled for 2 decades now in the hands of some bureocrats in Brussels.

In fact, its worst than ridiculous, it’s shameful.

It only looks better than the USA to delusional individuals.

It might have given a reason, but it’s not like that will actually create anything in Europe.

The only thing they can do these days is imposing new regulations of bottle caps. They turned themselves into the laughing stock of the all world: willingly.
