Current value, unless you have some exemption. Which is what stung these people.

Hmm. So if you buy a house in your 20s, by the time you retire, you would have bought the equivalent of 2.5 houses. One for you, one from the government for the privilege of living in the one you bought, and half a house worth of interest to the bank.
That’s an insane amount of money.

Their taxes were grandfathered in because they bought the property at a much lower value, the house was already worth a lot more than they paid for it.

Yeah, not a lot of sympathy from me.
4.4 mil, wow.

I think you’re wrong.

There’s something quite funny about making a few replies to people on a topic, doing something else with your life for several hours, then logging back in to a shitstorm. I’ve done it unintentionally a few times.

Is there any way to forcibly prevent a person from using a service like this, other than confiscating their devices?

They must have finally gotten the AI to the point where it’s bearable to listen to.

Oh god, that last sentence actually made me laugh.
Imagine being in the business of manufacturing cocaine spoons, and McDonald’s starts just giving them away.

So what’s the other meaning for CNC?

Hugely popular, mostly with a bunch of dorks nobody likes that much.
People are getting the message now, but when it first came out, there were so many posts about what ChatGPT had to say about the topic, and the posters never seemed to understand why nobody cared.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 4 days ago:
Because pretty much nobody wants it or likes it.

So what’s the alternative? How else would a professional artist make a living?

I genuinely feel like I’m talking to a wall here.

Really? Artists getting paid for their work isn’t a good reason?
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 5 days ago:
You’re probably right, but saying we should abolish it altogether is insane. There’s a good reason we have these laws.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 5 days ago:
How many authors do you think would have written the books they did, if they weren’t able to make a living from their work? Most of the people creating works before copyright either had a patron of some description, or outright worked for an organisation.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 5 days ago:
Honestly, I think our world would be a lot blander, and we’d have a whole lot less original content.

And I can buy groceries with thoughts and prayers.

That is definitely one of the most cooked takes I’ve heard in a while.
Why would anyone create anything if it can immediately be copied with no compensation to you?

Notifications in Chrome are a useful feature to keep up with updates from your favorite sites.
No, they most definitely are not. This is something I’ve never wanted or used, and almost certainly never will.
Why does this feature even exist?

I genuinely think they won’t, one thing that does make people like this learn is when they personally feel the consequences of their actions.

You don’t get to decide that.

That’s 25AH of capacity on a 12v system though, so quarter of the capacity of a 100ah battery, if I’ve done my math right.
