In psychology, this is not hallucination. The proper term for making stuff up like this is "confabulation."

This is like hitting a nail with the handle end of a hammer. The companies that need to be sued in order to put an end to this nonsense are the ones selling their movies on Amazon and iTunes and FandangoNow and all the rest. Ultimately, US law will need to be amended to keep Hollywood from ripping off consumers.

Plant meat is over 100 years old. Beyond and Impossible were trying to reinvent the wheel. I've been eating Morningstar Farms and other meat substitutes for 40 years. Choplets, which you can still buy, became popular during WW2 because of meat rationing but they were far from the earliest meat substitute. The same man for whom Kellogg's cereal is named also formed the Battle Creek Food Company which made meat substitutes - the best known being Protose which was made from wheat gluten, peanuts, and soy.

The problem is youtube/google is claiming they practice moderation but they don't. Even after content is reported for being illegal like in this case it gets to stay. Instead google is using moderation as an excuse for practicing editorializing instead which wasn't the intent of 230.

I'm curious what you think "unaffiliated" means, since whatever nefarious party is stealing Steve's likeness is definitely posting content on youtube.

The AP article added the context of the joke, which didn't make it funny but subjectively I would agree that it was non-serious. One does not passively say "kill all x" after accused of being one of x in a group chat with friends because she is serious.

A manual review and some minor counseling would have solved this problem, but apparently nobody in a position of leadership understood the point of this software.

They likely poisoned the courts against them with so many fraudulent takedowns and filings. The same people behind those organizations are probably just reorganized around some other fictional entity.

Better yet throw them in jail without an opportunity to speak to their lawyer or friends/family. It's too optimistic to think that these cockroaches will be removed from positions of authority, but we can at least give them a dose of their own medicine so they can see how harmful it is.

Just as likely that she was the one being bullied. IDK why you would assume that an incompetent software package being implemented wrongly by a public district would have been correct. This claim that it was all done automatically without any human intervention is also just wrong. There's no way to perform an arrest without the officers involved making a determination of probable cause.

"Hurr durr, computer said you're guilty" isn't a defense.

You don't have to build a new school every time there's a shooting, that's just done to protect the guilty.

Movies Anywhere works only for movies and only for participating studios. Paramount along with numerous smaller studios do not participate in Movies Anywhere meaning said movies as well as all TV shows will be locked into Microsoft. My TV shows and non Movies Anywhere movies are locked into Apple because I can't foresee them ever shutting down.

My 10 year old car has front cameras which is how I can park close to the curb without my front end going over it and blocking pedestrians.

Why use chrome when you can use an actually good browser with a proper ad blocker

They likely are stealing personal data and selling it to marketing companies, but the absurdly overpriced cloud storage is free money too. You could buy a 10TB HDD for $100 and use it for 5 years for an annual cost of $20/yr plus about $20 power cost, or you could pay MS for 1TB of cloud storage for $100/yr or $500 for 1/10th the storage and significantly worse performance.

It's pretty likely that if you use your storage for an encrypted container you're going to get banned too, so the cost is even higher when you realize everything is duplicated with other users.

The requirements are arbitrary. Windows 11 doesn't require memory protection unless it's on an intel processor, and it doesn't matter if the implementation is broken. Windows 11 also requires these security features to be available but doesn't require signed drivers to be compatible with them so it's highly likely that even if your system meets all the enhanced security requirements, they'll need to be disabled due to bad hardware or incompatible drivers.

None of this rules out malicious or fraudulent intent. It's possible that the arbitrary requirements are being driven because some beancounter has guessed that new computer sales kickbacks will earn them more than direct retail license sales.

False. Tesla was asked to upgrade their chargers to allow non Tesla cars to charge there and they declined. So there was a new bidding process and Tesla lost the bid in 2022. Teslas chargers are not universal, I just passed them today. Hyundai couldnâ(TM)t use them until March of this year, and even then they still require an adaptor. Theyâ(TM)re being replaced by universal chargers that work with all models and take credit cards, and even have higher charge speeds.

Musk is salty but his claims are false.
