I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks
The big question touching a nerve this election: “Can my husband find out who I am voting for?”
That’s one of those questions I feel like, if you find yourself asking it, you should probably get out of that marriage. (I know easier said than done)
Exactly what law states internet connections should be terminated for users accused of piracy?
And are we going to selectively enforce this against poor people, or are they going to start demanding the trunk lines feeding AI datacenters be cut as well? (I asked rhetorically).
Yeah! I can’t make money running my restaurant if I have to pay for the ingredients, so I should be allowed to steal them. How else can I make money??
Alternatively:
OpenAI is no different from pirate streaming sites in this regard (loosely: streaming sites are way more useful to humanity). If OpenAI gets a pass, so should every site that’s been shut down for piracy.
Mom, can we stop and get some Python?
No, we have Python at home.
Python at home…
If only we had the technology to open doors without power. One day, perhaps.
I mean, they could solve it by not making the mandatory successor an ad-laden, AI-infested, personal data harvesting, privacy-nightmare shit show. That would be a start. And also relax whatever the artificial requirement is that makes a lot of Win10 machines incompatible with 11.
Josh D’Amaro said in a statement to The Verge. “As such, we’ve decided to waive our right to arbitration and have the matter proceed in court.”
Sounds to me like they just want to keep that umbrella waiver in the Disney+ agreement rather than have that, rightly, struck down in court. They are very much still working under the assumption that a subscriber clicking “I Agree” to watch The Mandalorian waives any right to trial against any business unit of Disney Corp for any reason.
Absolutely despicable.
So it sounds like they did have plans, or at least ideas, for it but are now backtracking after the 100% deserved backlash.
Remember folks: Any smart device you have that requires an internet connection or app is e-waste waiting to happen at the company’s whim.
