Marty_d Posted May 21 Posted May 21 (edited) I hate Tony Abbott too. Doesn't mean I hate all men. Just like I hate Gina Rinehart but not all women. Edited May 21 by Marty_d 1 1
facthunter Posted May 21 Posted May 21 SHE was reacting to what A Bot had just said. in any other workplace he would have been admonished. Nev 1
facthunter Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Gorgeous GINA IS something else. SHE funds the IPA. ALL tax deductable. Gave Barnaby Joyce 60K pocket money. It's not what you know, Its WHO you know. Nev 1 1
red750 Posted June 8 Posted June 8 Well, that's it. I can't log into Facebook. They demand that I take a video of my face using the camera on my laptop. turning from side to side so they can identify me. Bullshit. They could use it to make an AI Deepfake. I can't log into my account until I upload the video. 1
onetrack Posted June 8 Posted June 8 What started this off? I give FB bugger-all, and they've never made a demand like that to me. Yet I can log in, post, sell and buy, message and interact with people on there, no problem. I don't even use my real name or even a photo of myself. I trust FB and it's grubby owner, like I trust a cornered black snake.
red750 Posted June 8 Posted June 8 I was just sitting here scrolling through, looking at the Wheel of Fortune screens when the screen went blank and the demand popped up.
old man emu Posted June 8 Posted June 8 What if you don't have a laptop, or a camera on your desktop?

Marty_d Posted June 8 Posted June 8 I'd be careful. I'm not a facebook user myself, but my wife is, and she's never been asked to make a video of her face. Possibly not FB but some kind of malware. 2
octave Posted June 8 Posted June 8 (edited) How are we using facial recognition technology to confirm your identity? It is to confirm your identity if they believe your account has been compromised. There is an option if you do not wish to submit a video. If our automated system can't confirm a match or if you choose not to use facial recognition technology, your selfie may go through manual review or you may be asked to confirm your identity another way.

onetrack Posted June 8 Posted June 8 I'd just start a new account. I thought it could be a hacker scam, but it's apparently true that FB is using facial recognition videos. There's no way I'd provide that to a faceless, soulless, ruthless website operator, that only communicates with you when it suits them. https://www.waka.com/2024/11/25/what-the-tech-locked-out-of-your-facebook-account-use-your-face-to-get-back-in/#:~:text=While Meta assures users that,between security and user experience.

There was an info page where you could put more info.I said the computers at the Men's Shed were old office desktops with monitors that didn't have cameras attached so facial recognition was useless. We'll see if I get any response. I think that was where the problem arose. I tried logging in and they sent a security code to my phone, but it was flat. 1
pmccarthy Posted June 8 Posted June 8 Sounds like a scam to me. I get a lock down threat from time to time but ctrl.alt.del gets rid of it.
Jerry_Atrick Posted Monday at 06:55 AM Posted Monday at 06:55 AM Self Service: I am not sure which was fuirst, but in early days it was supermarkets, nixknamed self-serves. Then petrol stations or garages, as they are called here. And I get it.. improved efficiency gets customers through their experience quicker, drops the prices, and makes money. Good. Of course now we have self0serve checkouts, and these are a little problematic it turns out, but technology will catch up to make it harder to get away with, literally, daylight robbery. But we also have self service for business functions, where it has to be said, is not necessarily the best way forward. I am converting contractors to permanent employees and I gave one of my contractors an extended period to stay as a contractor an account of quirks in our holiday policy. I came under pressure from more senior management to rein the notice back, so I popped a quick email to HR to let me know the implications. The response - all of our policies are self-service now, here is a link, pls read it. I responded by asking if she didn't know their policy and her response was of course she did. So I responded, "Don't you think it would be a lot cheaper for you to spend 5 or even 10 minutes emailing me the answer, than for me to spend an hour reading the policy, and if I didn't quite understand it, having this exchange, anyway?" Not had a response, yet. But, this form of self service speeds nothing up - slows stuff down, doesn't reduce the number of staff we need, and costs more. 1 1 1
red750 Posted Monday at 09:15 AM Posted Monday at 09:15 AM Speaking of self serve supermarkets, Coles and Woolies at Forest Hill have installed electric sliding doors at the exit to the self serve registers. I guess they are supposed to stop people walking out without paying, but they stop every second customer, and the supervisor of the self serve section has to press a button to open them. They never check if the person stopped has unpaid-for goods, but holds up 3 or 4 customer while the supervisor assists someone having difficulty scanning their goods. Definitely not saving, just pi**ing off the customers. Open for one, and 3 walk out. 1
