World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

there is an incredibly finite number of ways to mess with this, they just need a button to send a report to the engineers with how they got messed with and eventually they'll have a complete list. I really doubt it'd take long to iron out the vast majority of ways that can be thought of.
This isn't something you can input any text into, it's fixed, that joke doesn't apply, you can't do an sql injection here.
Close one, a joke was related to but not a perfect match for the present situation. Something terrible could have happened like... Uh...
Let me get back to you on that.
I don't know how you can think voice input is less versatile than text input, especially when a lot of voice input systems transform voice to text before processing. At least with text you get well-defined characters with a lot less variability.
No special characters, this is speech to text, inherently sanitized inputs.
Special characters is just one case to cover. If the user says they want "an elephant-sized drink" what does that mean to your system? At least that is relevant to size. Now imagine complete nonsense input like the joke you responded to ("-1 beers" or "a lizard"). SQL injection isn't the only risk with handling inputs. The person who ordered 18,000 waters didn't do a SQL injection attack.
none of those issues work because there is a whitelist of specific terms instead of a blacklist
-1 cannot be selected, a lizard isn't on the list of inputs, and my point with the sql is that this isn't a huge attack vector like an input field on a website, this is a dropdown list, essentially.
i challenge you to come up with one relevant attack that isn't order too much of a thing or order conflicting modifications (note of course the modifications are also essentially read from a dropdown list)
everyone here seems to believe that the input field paradigm is not solveable when the inputs are fixed, that isn't true.
Sounds like you've never programmed before.

If what I was saying was false, there would be the same issues with the touchscreen ones.
Nothing you said there would at all be affected by the difference in input source.
