Even then it would be a copy. In this case it would be like downloading an amalgam of thousands of movies, not quite like any of them

I could have that discussion. But it still wouldn’t be theft. Nothing was actually stolen.

I’m going to say it again. It cannot be theft. Nothing is stolen. What did they have before they don’t have now?

I see people disagree with me but they are too lame to try and say why, and they definitely could not explain how, when there is nothing in AI but a probability algorithm.

I can’t buy into the theft idea. It is like describing ideas in mathmatical concepts. The ai contains nothing of the original.

Is there another word that fits better? I don’t know.

On the other hand, why would anyone buy art without knowing the artist? I commision art, I buy art, but I always get to know who it is from and in most cases how they made it: watercolor, oil, pen, etc.

Been there, done that. They did some TV here and there, but not much. They didn’t watch much at all when they were little, certainly not over and over.

So are they getting a lot out of watching something over and over again?

And yes, no TV is better than any TV. That is a valid adult view, and not idiotic at all. But it really was the over and over again part that I was commenting on.

Maybe it is better than letting them wander all over tiktok and youtube which is much worse.

That itself is sad. Being a good parent might mean finding something better for your kids to do than watching TV.

Yeah but now you have Hulu.I hate that one even more than Disney.

I wouldn’t have know, thanks for posting this.

You might not be that far off. I can’t think of a kid who is interested in going to six flags. A whole school was going to go for the day, for free. Only a handful expressed interest, the rest said no way they are standing in lines, in the sun, to take a 3 minute ride to nowhere.

I still run websites. Some simple and static, others forums, yet others are blogs.

I like to have small communities around simple interests and they get enough traffic to stay interesting.

The blogs are for recording things I do and want to remember and share, like setting up postgres to do interesting things.

None of them have ads or generate revenue. I just miss the old internet and like to see these things exist.

At the same time, I don’t really care if AI scrapes it. It’s out there to be looked at. Of course one website is a complete farce, illogical and fake product nonsense. I enjoy it getting scraped the most.

Please don’t say breaking.

They are getting ready to roll out the Hate and Bigotry themes.

A pound heavier than a steam deck doesn’t sound like a lot, but it is in practice.

Also… Windows? Well it’s not good for handheld gaming right out of the gate.

It is amazing what you can do with so little. My server has nas, jellyfin, plex, ebook reader, recipe, vpn, notes, music server, backups, and serves 4 people. If it hits 4gb ram usage it is a rare day.

The weather will be what it will be, and I already have a calendar.

The TV is off until the evening anyways, I cannot see the point of this at all.

Your merits matter most to me. But we all need to get the hell away from that platform.

That sucks. And the only way to fix it is to get people not to play.

I am on hiring committees for a large firm for it positions. When people put their linked in on their resumes, I see it as a negative. If they can’t value their personal data, I don’t see how they can value my companies.

Linked in shouldn’t even be an option. It was shit before microsoft bought them (email man in the middle, remember that?) and somehow microsoft made it worse.

I would never touch that platform. Friends don’t let friends use it.
