I fear that Skyblivion will totally get a C&D now that Bethesda is selling their own remake :(

I use LLMs for some things and they are great, but to be honest, I haven’t seen any real world usage of blockchains besides cryptocurrencies and NFTs.

Saudi Arabia isn’t a person.

Yes, it is. In an autocratic monarchy, in a dictatorship, everything belongs to the king. The house of Saud is treating the country as their personal property and let’s not pretend that anything would prevent the guy who killed a journalist in his embassy from accessing that data.

Just FYI: Data is from May till June 2023. Musk took over Twitter end of Oct. / Nov 2022. A lot of stuff has happened since then, so that study can’t tell you much about the current X

People here like to shit on AI, but it has its use cases. It’s nice that I can search for “horse” in Google Photos and get back all pictures of horses and it is also really great for creating small scripts. I, however, do not need a LLM chatbot on my phone and I really don’t want it everywhere in every fucking app with a subscription model.

To be honest, most other websites are not better, we are just used to them. Google? TikTok? Bing? Reddit? Yahoo? X? Twitter? ChatGPT? DuckDuckGo? XNXX?

But i am afraid of people messing up their devices and blaming me

Just to be clear: If your script messes up somebodys device, no licence in the world will keep them from blaming you ;)

I have Audio-CDs from the 80s that are still playing 40 years later. And I have CDs with deep scratches that also play without problems.

Well, that’s an absolute no-go and thanks for reminding me to never buy one of their products

I run a small thinclient (HP Mini G400, but those small Lenovos thinkcentres and others also work) in my home. Cost me ~100€ plus a few Euro for a RAM update and a bigger hard drive and now I’m running Proxmox with the help of the Community Scripts:

It’s quite awesome, to be honest.

I mean… why wouldn’t all that is happening not have a effect on sales? Musk is the face of Tesla and Musks image has totally gone downhill for lots of people. He’s gone from “techbro genius” to “fascist” in a few months (!) in the public image and there is really not reason to doubt, that this won’t have an effect on sales.

It makes sense that there still are physical games. There are many people with no internet or slow internet. You can gift them to your children or friends on their birthday. You can sell them/pass them on after you’ve finished the game

Be the chance you want to see in the world and email him?

I don’t think phone makers are that close to ad companies

Google?

Yeah, they had a really good thing going on and it’s sad that it didn’t last.

Yeah, LLMs could really help. Other tools without AI are also helpful. The problem with all those companies is that they don’t want to do moderating for the public good at all. Reddit could kill a lot of Fake News on it’s platform, prevent reposts of revenge porn or kick idiots just by implementing a few rules. They don’t want to

Yeah, high-res video will eat those TB quick. I started to clean up my collection - if something really was not good, I stopped watching or lost interest, it goes into the bin. Collecting is great, but there is no reason to keep some mediocre Netflix shovelware around that was canceled after one season.

And if you go out and order a drink, you might get 3 or 4 straws. Yes, it’s stupid. Yes, it doesn’t make sense. But it happens and people throw their to-go drinks into the environment after they finished them

Yeah, but it’s a quick win. Ban some single-use plastics and prevent it from getting into the oceans because it doesn’t exist. Yeah, you have to do something about the fishing nets, but there is no reason to not take those quick-wins

Why shouldn’t it be relevant? The waste is out there, is being found on our beaches and the industrial plastic waste is not swept up as often? So why would a regulation to prevent the most common plastic-items on our beaches from being there be bad?
