"It's gun control all over again and the answer is NOT to withhold capability from people, it's to empower good actors to defend against the bad ones and distribute power widely to keep central authorities in check."

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... (as a tag on one of their graphs): U.S. gun homicide rates exceed total homicide rates in high-income OECD countries.

So how's arming everyone and their uncle's dog working out for you, eh?

Sure, the solution is to fully automate everything, because we've seen how automation of software development has resulted in zero bugs. Let's not talk about code quality, let's talk about not having to do any work.

This is nothing more than platforming an advertisement disguised as news of a threat. Warning, our product is really good!

Don't be mad because you didn't see it.

Also, don't call them "editors"

"conservative speech", you mean "conservative whining". How come the Right turned into a whiny bunch of geezers complaining about how their lives were miserable because someone might be using the bathroom the Right wishes they wouldn't?

FTFY: No, just you and your leftist friends, outraged that someone dared burst their information bubble with Fascist content.

It might come as a shock to you, but any women "injected" by her husband is indistinguishable from a random woman with donated sperm. Magical thinking by people like you is not a prescription for success.

And their hair is amazing.

From https://www.theregister.com/20..., we learn that AI use is making young people in the U.S. weaker in their thinking skills. Why think when you can just ask some dumb oracle and paste its answers into whatever. The same fate awaits U.S. companies who go all in on this crap.

I'm not saying that they can't do it, it's that they can't legally do it.

Republicans equate being pro-market with being pro-big-business-agenda. The assumption is that anything that is good for big business is good for the market and therefore good for consumers.

So in the Republican framing, anti-trust, since is interferes with what big business wants to do, is *necessarily* anti-market and bad for consumers, which if you accept their axioms would have to be true, even though what big business wants to do is use its economic scale and political clout to consolidate, evade competition, and lock in consumers.

That isn't economics. It's religion. And when religious dogmas are challenge, you call the people challenging them the devil -- or in current political lingo, "terrorists". A "terrorist" in that sense doesn't have to commit any actual act of terrorism. He just has to be a heathen.

Ugh. Acrobat actually craps itself on forms now. The check boxes keep disappearing during scrolling, and I have the latest reader.

"The amount of raw materials used is significantly higher meaning the ecological impact is greater."

It isn't and that's also not how it works

No they did not. This story is about how they didn't. Learn to read, coward.

Can't Europe solve this for us? I expect this kind of crap in the US, but Europe tends to lean a little more toward consumers than copyright holders, right?

I wonder if pursuing this in Europe would be more fruitful than doing it here.
