Yes but that’s not what’s happening, we’re losing entire airframes flying commercial flights at the rate of like one a week, the DC crash was the worst in America since 2001 and Toronto hasn’t had an incident like this since 2005

This isn’t normal, it’s not a case of over reporting

The way I see it, creatives lose no matter what here, so they can either lose and only the corpos benefit, or they can lose and everyone benefits

OpenAI losing their case is how we ensure that the only people who can legally be in charge of an LLM are massive corporations with enough money to license sufficient source material for training, so I’m forced to begrudgingly take their side here

“The three biggest social media sites on the internet are nothing but screenshots of the other two” is how I heard the last 10 years described

Depending on how important these large language models end up being to society, I’d rather everyone be able to freely use copyrighted works to train them, rather than reserve their use solely for the corporations rich enough to pay for the licensing or lucky enough to already have the rights to a trove of source material

OpenAI losing this battle is how we ensure that the only people that can legally train these things are the Microsofts, Googles, and the Adobes of the world so, bizarrely, as much as I think OpenAI has turned into greedy corpo scum, I feel compelled to side with them here

We already had first Microsoft anti-trust suit, but what about second Microsoft anti-trust suit?

Every browser is either chromium (open source captured by Google) or exists because of a Google search contract (this represents 80% of Mozilla’s revenue), Google can’t lose

Chrome really needs to be broken off from Google, the largest ad company owning the largest browser is clearly a huge conflict of interest

Seeing that half of my extensions (it was seriously like 10 of them) were going to be disabled is what pushed me to finally switch to Firefox because if I have to find alternatives to them it might as well be on another browser

A TOS doesn’t give you the legal right to destroy someone’s property… At worst they could deny service

Netplay isn’t exactly ideal, as from what I understand it generally requires the syncing of all players emulated console hardware simultaneously (basically, every emulator tricks the game into thinking they’re all being played on one single console), which is a lot harder to reliably achieve than having native netcode to handle multiplayer

If only there was a way to know who removed the code

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve looked up some feature or low-priority bug only to find the answer is “there’s a PR for this that will be added in 10.9”, commented like a year ago, glad to see the future plan is more frequent but smaller feature releases!

Don’t underestimate how dumb and greedy corpos can be

If I ever have a device connecting to open networks by itself I’m snipping its wifi antenna

No, we’re going from “a different cable for every device” to “a different cable for every device but you need a label maker because they all look the same”, and you’re going to like it

At this point I just refuse to ever connect smart TVs to wifi, it’s not worth it

If the implementation is so broad that I have to break out my label maker, can we even really call it a “standard”

USB C seems like a good idea but in reality all it really did was take my 5 different, not interchangeable, but visually distinct, cables, and make them all look identical and require labeling

That’s basically my thought

“You used AI to get an image that infringes on copyright? Cool I’ve been able to do that with Google images for 20 years now”
