I'm thinking of moving to a state that's colder where I can buy land that has water within the property.
I also think to do anything sizeable you need the resources a company can bring. Our problems are at scale. You need a scaled resource pool and reinvestment in that to work up to some of the issues. I like the idea of carbon extraction for example, but I don't see any resources invested in it from US companies.
Ah yeah the guy who opposed Putin
Yeah surprise he's dead
I'm not sure about that at all. At what point does a computer program become intelligent enough to not have human rights but have some cognition of fair use.
I think it needs to be really hashed out by someone who understands both copyright law and data warehouses, and some programming. It's a sparse field for sure but we need someone equipped for it.
Because I don't think it's as linear as you're describing it.
I'll generalize and say there are many my age in their 20s that watch things like TikTok and shorts that are conditioned for the fastest intake of media. This means ignoring the written word outside of texts.
Even myself, if I see a wall of text in an article, I know to skip the fluffer ad-reads down to paragraph three, then skim. To be fair most articles could be wrapped up to maybe two paragraphs but get extended for ad spots. Outside the context of reading articles on say lemmy, especially online, there is a largely missed hear mean not what I'm saying operating in good faith that often gets missed online. For example if someone posts an article about how smoking kills you, and I post a comment that "yes but its a creature comfort" I am not refuting it kills you - I'm merely suggesting that its a rough world and that people have vices to cope.
Nuance and assumption that we're acknowledging it is often lost on people.
Our ancient legal system trying to lend itself to "protecting authors" is fucking absurd. AI is the future. Are we really going to let everyone take a shot suing these guys over this crap? Its a useful program and infrastructure for everyone.
Holding technology back for antiquated copyright law is downright absurd.
Edit: I want to add that I'm not suggesting copyright should be a free for all on your books or hard work, but rather that this is a computer program and a major breakthrough, and in the same way that if I read a book no one sues my brain for consumption I don't think we should sue an AI: it is not reproducing books. In the same manner that many footnotes websites about books do not reproduce a book by summarizing their content. With the contingency that until Open AI does not have an event where their reputation has to be re-evaluated (IE this is subject to change if they start trying to reproduce books).
Those are all expensive, used Thinkpad is below the ground-dirt cheap...$150?!
My Thinkpad Ultrabook was insanely cheap even with a docking station. I do donate to Pop OS once a year though as a thanks for their work and I recommend the same. It's like $12 a year on their site and they do great work.
Trying to get one of their laptops but thats in short order for me, for now.
Adding on:
Because it fucking gaslighting. I remember having this WTF moment when I was reading the O'Reilly Ethereum programming book.
If web 2 was html 5 and css3, how does a protocol that relies solely on money being transacted make the basis of web3?
This sounds exactly like a VC plot. "There will be money exchanged on every transaction". I bet they lost their minds in the pitch room when they heard it.
I'm so green to it I can't comment. What have you seen that's a turn off?
I see a whole lot of meme coiners over there so far lol.
Maybe you don't really want an account one one server but rather the whole experience. Seems good nuff for that.
I'll concede. Sure. Maybe I personally don't like the idea of tying in anarchists to twitter. I still think its something of a stretch though.
Thanks for sharing some info. And no I didn't know that. I appreciate that it was a mild sharing of info. I'm from New England and I think even just getting back to home and leaving the intense heat of California would feel far more comfortable.
You'd be surprised what living on the other side of the mountain - in silicon valley - brings for heat. Santa Cruz feels nice normal and cool to me while the valley just gets so scorching it's almost untenable living here.
