I have a question: Is a FAQ case law?

Piracy is a service problem.

I’m sure that line of thinking will go over great when you stay home during Election Day and Trump magically gets elected.

With infinite budget sure, worth a shot, but it would cost a lot more than the price of the phone to track it down.

Infinite budget? Bro, I know the exact location. Just go over there and knock on his door. Arrest the man and put him in jail for possession. One less thief out there taking advantage of the fact that the police doesn’t enforce the fucking laws.

The criminals could and probably do have ‘faraday bags’ to block signals from phones as they move them, only ever taken out to sell them along.

They could, but they don’t.

In a world of home surveillance, doorbell cameras, and phones with constant GPS that can tell you the exact location of where it’s at, the police are more useless than ever.

The demo was neat, but it was hilariously overhyped, even in the abstract paper. It was pretty damn obvious that the researchers were just trying to continue funding their research with a PR push.

The more interesting aspect was the potential for better AI video processing, not creating a game engine. You can’t create a game engine without a series of defined rules, and you can’t define those rules without documenting it in programming language.

A Mastodon user stumbling upon one of these comments could easily assume that it is just another fully independent “toot” (Mastodon’s equivalent of tweet).

Wait, back up… Mastodon calls these “toots”? So, everybody is posting farts?

That’s the thing about automation and training models.

First, they implement some sort of auto-reporting bot that requires a human to review them. In the beginning, it only about 50% accurate, but as they give it more and more examples of good and bad results through the human reviews, it moves to 80%, then 90%, then 99%, then 99.99% accuracy.

After a while, the humans on the other end are so numb to the 9999 entries they have to mark as approved that they can barely tell what’s a rejection themselves, and the moderation team is asking itself just what this human review is actually doing. If it’s 99.99% accurate, why not let the bot decide?

Then, the model moves on from auto-reporting to auto-moderation.

Gee, I wonder why that so popular…

Why EU leaders People should get off Musk’s X

FTFY.

The company added that it does not “listen to any conversations or have access to anything beyond a third-party aggregated, anonymized and fully encrypted data set that can be used for ad placement” and “regret[s] any confusion.”

That doesn’t sound like kooky bullshit to me. That sounds exactly like what the OP’s title suggests.

but is concerned about hosting fees for serving images to millions of people

People stopped caring about image bandwidth decades ago. Try wrangling a video-hosting problem, like PeerTube does.

(N.S.F.W.)

And paywalled.

The GPL is not a China-backed agreement. China can do whatever the fuck it wants, because that’s how dictatorships roll.

Ditto.

Please don’t recommend the PMG investigation.

Not exactly, but it’s an interesting story

Same thing for Disco Elysium.

With this change, extensions can “only” alter/inspect/redirect/block 30,000 domains if they use the webRequest API. That’s not enough to build uBlock Origin with, but at least there’s limit now.

That seems like an arbitrary number. Why not 20,000? Or 300,000? What the hell is this limit even for? Even malware can still target 10 domains and do some significant damage. So, what the hell is the point?

Remember, politicians don’t pass racist laws by directly saying they are excluding PoC into the law. They do it by targeting commonalities that happen to apply to PoC.

Google isn’t going to flat-out say they are blocking uBlock Origin. They are going to do it by implementing “security features” that just so happen to target only uBlock Origin.

Yeah, it’s really tiring when there are so many good uses from both image LLMs and chat LLMs. They shouldn’t be used to produce a final product, but it can get 50-80% of the way there.

Just their use as upscalers (which I know isn’t a LLM) are magical, and far far better than JPEG compression. With the right upscaler, you can double the size of an image and it looks just fine.

Instead, we are far too engrossed in how “AI is taking our jobs” and shit. No, AI isn’t taking your jobs. The greedy corporate assholes are taking your jobs.
