- Comment on Artists dump X as launch of new AI image editing feature sparks outrage - Cryptopolitan 1 day ago:
I wonder how that would go in court, I wonder if it’s been tried before? I could see an argument that if that was the intention and how they made money maybe it wouldn’t be fair use.

May I introduce you to Fair Use Doctrine.

I wasn’t going to log in to verify either lol.
Even if that’s the case, it will come down to fair use policy which will allow quite a lot.
If the specific instance of sharing isn’t fair use and Twitter allows it, then sue them, someone will.

new tool could be used to modify others’ works without their consent.
This specific part is kinda stupid.
Nothing was ever preventing anyone from modifying an artists work. Its incredibly common.
No one needs consent to modify anything.
To distrubute something that isn’t yours that doesn’t fall under fair use, absolutely. But modifying without consent is a joke.
- Comment on Being afraid of vaccines is literally childish behavior. 2 days ago:
Some people have relationships like that with their family Dr, I never have though.
- Comment on Being afraid of vaccines is literally childish behavior. 2 days ago:
I think its worth pointing out that needing a vaccine is different than getting and benefiting from a vaccine.
Seasonal Flu and Covid vaccines are still beneficial, so while you don’t need any, if there is a way to beat the phobia, you can still benefit.
It’s not likely that anyone is going to offer you something like Xanax for a yearly flu shot, but maybe your Dr would knowing your circumstances, and that could be a slow process to maybe beating it by getting some successful years behind you using that method?
- Comment on Being afraid of vaccines is literally childish behavior. 2 days ago:
I’ve had some really bad experiences in the past as well including passing out and nausea. Luckily at least for smaller needles like vaccines/dental work I no longer suffer from that. I still lay down if blood is being drawn.
It took a long time, but I think the dentist giving me some sedatives for the needles helped me get more comfortable with it since I knew they helped, and eventually, I was able to try without and it was hard but it did help, and it just got easier from there.
It still sucks, but it’s manageable now.
If you struggle at the dentist like I did, maybe that’s an option if you need work done.

And here I was thinking if just upgrade to one of these on my AM4 board… guess not.

That’d be easy enough to test wouldn’t it? Ask it to write something else like ‘The hippo farts are smelly’

Give it another week and the ram for the steam machine will cost more than the whole steam machine the day it was announced.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 week ago:
You don’t even need to use cursor. All the major IDEs are including LLMs nowadays to help with code completion a d code generation. There’s zero chance no gen ai code is in any project that has more than a few people nowadays.
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 1 week ago:
I mean ya, that works if they know who you are.
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 1 week ago:
Sorry my bad. The messages will all be converted into AI slop when you submit them so you aren’t actually communicating with someone with your own written words so you have plausible deniability that you didn’t actually write any messages using encryption which is now an offense punishable by death.
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 1 week ago:
It’s because it can’t be taken down. What happens when they arrest everyone working at signal? When they arrest you for hosting a encrypted message relay?
That’s where language like this is headed.
Ethereum also recently introduced something called blobs, which is temporary data that lasts around 18 days. So it isn’t necessary stored forever if you wanted a not as permanent message. There are archives that will keep all that as well, but it’s not maintained on the regular chain.
- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 1 week ago:
I know this is gonna get downvoted but…
This is all going to lead to needing to use some open blockchain based communication system.
E2E encrypted, routed through a public blockchain they can’t block. Use one of Ethereums L2 systems to keep short messages under a penny and route all payments through Tornado Cash so they can’t be tracked.
All open source, nothing to take down, uncensorable.
It won’t be for everyone at first it would he too technical in a lot of cases, but it’s going to he the last option at the end of this road.

Wait for a PS6 that Sony will sell at a loss due to earning it back on games and salvage that sweet sweet ram and GPU for a home made PC lol.

Decades from now when we have Speed Racer type tracks they’ll regret that.

So, I just watched the F1 movie with Brad Pitt, and the mention f2 and f3.
I only just realized, that f zero is likely meant to be the next one after 1, as in the new elite race rank.
- Comment on builder.ai has been tricking customers and investors for eight years – selling an advanced code-writing AI that, it turns out, is actually an Indian software farm employing 700 human developers 3 weeks ago:
That sifting through crap isn’t just an AI thing.
Pretty much any big site with user generated content and moderators has to have people who deal with seeing that shit.
It’s a really shitty underpaid job.

With such scarce food up there, isn’t it always a good time to eat if it’s just a single human?
- Comment on RAM is so expensive, Samsung won't even sell it to Samsung 3 weeks ago:
We have such copious amounts of excess power but its all in off peak times. We need to build batteries or other storage methods so we can capture it in off peak hours.
We should force these data centers to help foot the bill for that instead of doing the stupid shit they’re doing like portable generators, bring coal plants back online and what not.

- Comment on ChatGPT is down worldwide, conversations disappeared for users 3 weeks ago:
Australia isn’t the greatest spot to run a data centre in general in terms of heat, but I do understand the need for sovereign data centres, so this obviously can’t work everywhere.
What makes you think $3.5 million can’t be profitable? A mid sized hospitals heating bill can get into the many hundreds of thousands or into the millions even. Especially if it’s in a colder environment. A 5-6 year payback on that wouldn’t be terrible.
These colder locations are the ideal locations for the data centres in the first place because they generally want a cooler climate to begin with.

What does Samsung’s memory division think is going to their phone division if they won’t sell them ram, wow.
- Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead 3 weeks ago:
I wonder if they realized there weren’t enough GPUs, so lets just build a massive ram farm to do the job at 1/100th the speed.
