Frequently the point of comparing the two is to caution before they actually become comparable, though. I think it’s intentional hyperbole to make a stark point, not an insensitive reduction.

It’s not even real. It’s a fabricated story to push an agenda of a special interest group.

Edit: to clarify, the news story is real, the mom’s story isn’t. It’s just a fiction to push the agenda.

I’m so confused, I’m a Spotify user and there are multiple artists I’ve selected “don’t play this artist” on that Spotify blocks for me; it won’t even play those artists when I click playlists including them.

You know that for the vast majority of human history copyright didn’t exist, and yet people still created art and culture, right?

edit: If you’re gonna downvote, have the balls to explain how I’m wrong.

Honestly, I’m a fan of abolishing IP law too, but for some reason I suspect the implementation of that they support is very different than the one I support

Are the cops you know actively marching in the streets in the name of justice and demanding police reform from their unions and leaders? Are they actively and consistently doing this, actively working to dismantle corruption and systemic problems with policing, every day?

Because if not, that’s how we know.

7 has Denuvo. That alone should be enough to keep anyone from touching it, imo

And it’s beyond obvious in the way LLMs are conditioned, especially if you’re used them long enough to notice trends. Where early on their responses were straight to the point (inaccurate as hell, yes, but that’s not what we’re talking about in this case) today instead they are meandering and full of straight engagement bait - programmed to feign some level of curiosity and ask stupid and needless follow-up questions to “keep the conversation going.” I suspect this is just a way to increase token usage to further exploit and drain the whales who tend to pay for these kinds of services, personally.

There is no shortage of ethical quandaries brought into the world with the rise of LLMs, but in my opinion the locked-down nature of these systems is one of the most problematic; if LLMs are going to be the commonality it seems the tech sector is insistent on making happen, then we really need to push back on these companies being able to control and guide them in their own monetary interests.

Honestly I think this is part of why conservatives like homeschooling so much; being in a close classroom environment teaches most people empathy as they quickly realize they are not the center of the teacher or anyone else’s universe.

Conservatives want to deprive us the lesson of empathy.

Damn, it’s almost enough to make you think every single Trump supporter is an ignorant idiot absolutely devoid of any concept of forethought.

I wish Vivaldi wasn’t Chromium-based, because I think it’s the slickest browser out there.

But it’s chromium, so it’s time to move on to Firefox regardless.

Ladybird development can’t happen fast enough.

Fr seeing in the modlog that people are regularly getting banned from parts of the fediverse for innocuous shit like “chronic downvoting” is so disappointing.

Imo however you do or do not hit the little arrow buttons should never have any bearing on your account or standing, at all.

I don’t even understand why mods/admins have access to see how people are voting, fuck that bullshit.

I have a Pixel. It is literally made by one of the largest advertising companies in the world.

Bigger screens mean bigger and more obtrusive ads.

I’m convinced this is 90% of the reason right here.

Why is there steak at the steakhouse??

I love these polls that report on obvious conclusions that don’t require polling.

Like yeah, no shit. The problem is the people holding the reins of power couldn’t give two shits what the American public wants or thinks.

Even a full-on gay orgy in the dead center of the restaurant is no excuse for violence.

But beyond that, people who are bothered by PDA are so fucking lame. You really want a sterile, sexless world devoid of passion and expressions of love? I think that sounds so fucking miserable

Cool, pedant. Addend “on google” to my comment then if you need, since that’s clearly the context we’re talking about here. I’m aware there are other search engines, but context should have made what I was talking about pretty fucking obvious.

Don’t worry, I’m sure google will disable that soon in the same way they disable all the other search syntax that used to make searching a simple and easy task
