- Comment on FCC and the broadband industry argue net neutrality’s future 2 weeks ago:
The future of net neutrality is already decided, has been for a while. The only question is when. Does NN end now or later. We already let the wolves in.
- Comment on Streaming site Twitch accused of unchecked antisemitism, anti-Israel bias. 4 weeks ago:
I think if there was something happening, people would be protesting. Probably happening all over the world if it was bad enough. I think a terrorist leader died recently so surely if they were involved, then they were the good guys.
Right? - Comment on So bad it was actually entertaining 4 weeks ago:
There’s also Dicks in the US. It’s a chain with a few locations.

They didn’t spend a fortune on licensing for nothing.
Think of the lawsuits.
-Sony probably - Comment on Would you buy "self-hosted in a box" hardware? 2 months ago:
The fact that it’s an option that even remotely works is my point. They sell hardware. They don’t support software. The community does that. There is something to be gained from having a uniform platform for learning self hosting responsibly.
A Raspberry pi isn’t particularly great at any one thing. It’s greatest strength comes in bundling everything you need in a box at an affordable price. Once you know where your pain points are then you can build/design a system that overcomes those shortcomings.
Having a starter kit would be an easy way to get more people in the space. Would it cost $35 of course not. Level1Techs made their KVM to meet their own requirements and then the community benefits. To me, this project has that kind of energy. Or at least the potential for it.

Raspberry pi was able to do it with $35.
- Comment on US: Alaska man busted with 10,000+ child sex abuse images despite his many encrypted apps 2 months ago:
That’s what I said. The person I replied to said that all messages are encrypted* with the asterisk being only if you specifically enable it. I clarified that it doesn’t apply to group chats though. I don’t use Telegram so the loss of functionality is actually a bigger deal to me than the argument around E2EE. Can you explain what features are lost when you enable it? It’s a messaging app so I’m curious what you sacrifice for E2EE.
- Comment on US: Alaska man busted with 10,000+ child sex abuse images despite his many encrypted apps 2 months ago:
Recent events have taught me that only individual chats are encrypted*. Group chats don’t have that feature.

It also labels videos/gifs differently than pictures. That way before I click/tap on something I already know what to expect.

This isn’t the first EV to do this. It’s not even the first Tesla to do it.
- Comment on What are some mainstream game series where you really do need to start from the first game? 6 months ago:
Yakuza is a wild as a series. Personally I’d recommend starting with the kiwami games THEN 0. Zero plays great and feels modern but the story feels out of place as a prequel. Playing it in a pseudo machete order gives it a better fit before jumping ship to the like a dragon timeline. Starting with zero leads to heartbreak. At some point it really does feel like the Vader twist in Star Wars, iykyk

- Comment on Nvidia is sued by authors over AI use of copyrighted works 8 months ago:
Creating material that is copyright infridgement is not a desired output
Agreed.
the purpose of guns is to kill (when used).
Guns is a term with varied definitions of which not all are intended to kill. There are rubber bullets, air soft, small caliber, and even paint ball guns. These MAY be lethal but were made with other goals in mind.
Nvidia on the other hand made GPUs for applications that revolve around video, the G literally stands for graphics. Some people found out that they are also efficient at other tasks so Nvidia made a new line of products for that workload because it was more lucrative. Gamers usually only buy 1 graphics card per machine, a few years ago some would even buy up to 3. In contrast, AI researchers/architects/programmers buy as many as they can afford and constantly buy more. This has made Nvidia change their product stack to cater to the more lucrative customer.
AI manufacturers depend on copyrighted material to “train” the AI
With everything I said, these AI creators CHOOSE what to feed into these new tools. They can choose to input things in the public domain or even paid-licensed-content but instead using copyrighted and pirated content is the norm. That is because this is a new field and we are collectively learning where the boundaries are and what is considered acceptable and legal.
Reddit recently signed a deal to license it’s data (user generated content like posts and comments) for use with AI generation. Other companies are using internal data to tailor their AIs to solve field-specific problems. The problem is that AI, just like guns, is a broad term.
the method of creation makes it more likely to infridge.
Nvidia has given us the tools but until we define what is considered acceptable, these kinds of things will be inevitable. I do believe that the authors had their copyrights infringed but they are also going after the wrong people. There have been reports of AI spitting out full books on command, clearly proving that those works were used to train. The authors should be going after the creators of those specific AIs, not Nvidia.
There is a long and bumpy road ahead.

This feels like suing gun manufacturers over murder. They made the tool but they’re not the ones responsible for the crime.

In other words, they took the Apple approach to right to repair. Disappointing but not unexpected. This is the same company that got rid of their “don’t be evil” motto after all.
- Comment on Tech Employee Who Went Viral for Filming Her Firing Has No Regrets 9 months ago:
That is was what they claimed, you are right. However that felt more like a boilerplate response meant to avoid a payout. Again, she asked for clarity on what that meant but never got a real response. I’m sure even now she didn’t get an answer. She was an account executive at the end of the year, not a greeter at Walmart. She was not on a PIP and was exceeding her KPIs, according to the video. Even her boss was shocked. If they had real data to prove their point, they would have brought it up then and there. Instead she got crickets. The whole thing reminds of the King of the Hill episode where Dale gets hired to fire people.
- Comment on Tech Employee Who Went Viral for Filming Her Firing Has No Regrets 9 months ago:
Last in first out, wasn’t that what was claimed in the actual video. Didn’t she bring up being there for only a month? And even then, that was time worked during the holidays. So the person just finished onboarding and was let go immediately after. Sounds like her specific case follows what they do in Sweden. In the video she asked again and again what she did and was met with a wall of we will talk about it later. I’m on her side wholeheartedly but let’s not try to normalize this behavior with laws. A new job should be a time for celebration and excitement.
