Doubt he knows that much. All he knows is that it's a potential political button he can press to trigger a Pavlov reaction with some people. That's all he's after.

I have to admit, if someone ran down random alleys of the town eating pills while running away from ghosts, I'd be questioning his mental state...

The term "all you can eat" is already a pretty good explanation of the problem.

Everywhere but in the US, it would be "all you want to eat". In the US, we make it a challenge to see just how much you can do of something, regardless of how much you want to.

You can only threaten with something that people don't already hope you'd do.

Windows has had the recyling bin since Windows 95.

And the menu item for it is going to be next to something no matter where they put it. I'm not sure what you propose to get around that.

And next to 'rename' isn't terrible, because almost nobody savvy uses the "rename" command, they just click the file name, pause, and click the filename again to put it into edit mode to rename it. I'm not sure how far back that's been possible -- maybe all the way back to win 95?

Also, apparently, it was actually present in development in Windows 1.0 but was dropped (possibly due to fears of infringing on MacOS).

There was also a TSR mode available in later versions of MSDOS undelete that added a 'SENTRY' directory and moved deleted files there etc. basically a recycling bin for DOS.

That's why I play Rogue Legacy ( https://store.steampowered.com... ). Sure I'm dead, but my descendants will continue the good fight.

In the old days, to a point yes, the file entry was deleted from the directory, and however space to the file was allocated, was marked available. And then at some point the actual data may get overwritten or partly overwritten when space is needed. So the actual data in files could be overwritten immediately, or might linger on for ages and could be recovered.

But this isn't really true anymore since the advent of solid state storage, and modern flash/SSD implementations. Between wear levelling algorithms that actively moves things around and actively distributes activity, and TRIM that actively wipes available space to speedup future writes -- free space doesn't just linger around waiting for something to maybe eventually need to be written there anymore.

"Free space" is actively recycled, and often very quickly, now.

I still catch myself thinking that we should try it.

If this allows you to hide those "shorts", I want that feature so much!

If you get your information from an untrustworthy source, don't be surprised when most of it is utter nonsense.

Stuff the Boeing C-suite into the capsule and launch it already.

However it ends, it ends well.

It would actually be easy. Just copy/paste honoring the formatting of the TARGET. Have you ever tried copy/pasting something into a Teams chat? Or an Outlook mail? 9 out of 10 times what you WANT is to get the content formatted in the way the text is formatted in the chat or mail.

What you GET though is that it pastes everything retaining the format of the source.

And yes. I know that I could right click, paste text only... but why is that not the STANDARD behaviour?

In other words, trying to rely mostly on brand recognition and hoping people would pay twice the price the quality warrants?

That may work for Apple and Bose, but for Soros, or whatever it's called...

They decided that AI content needs to be labeled. That's pretty much the big whoop here.

At the same time, anyone who ever had to deal with it knows that it's virtually impossible to tell AI generated content from human generated content. Hell, even AI cannot do it. Which becomes more and more of a problem when training AI (which is, I'm sure, one of the motivations for the whole deal) because more and more training material for new AIs is hallucinations from former AI generations.

And you can't manually vet it. The amount of content AI can generate easily outpaces anything humans could audit and vet.

That law is toothless.

1) Try looking at some Anime and you tell me what age the characters are.
2) Yes, and as long as this is the crime, it's a non-story. It seems, though, that they want to muddle the waters here and make creating the fake porn the crime.
3) Who exactly is the victim in a fake CP "crime"? Last I checked electrons don't have feelings.
