... This, this finally will get all those people clicking to Linux then?*
*Don't get me wrong, I hate so much of Windows and MS and am reminded nearly every update why they infuriate me but a) in my work systems I have no choice and b) I like to play games on my PC and c) I've grown out of the "pleasure" of tinkering with my computers like an old car in the garage. When I run my system I am doing so to accomplish something else, not just "get the system to run".
It's critically important to inject Trump into every conversation with you people, isn't it?
Just the rent free time he lives in your head is half the pleasure of having him president.
I think you think you're clever, but a) understand that your justification ("they're awful for lots of reasons") would have in other times and places been the same justification other people could have used against groups like homosexuals, and b) I rather suspect you fling the term Nazi or fascist around at nearly anyone who disagrees with your politics, which then just makes the term a crutch for you to dismiss and/justify whatever things YOU want to think or say about them. Or do, like "banning them as a political party".
Given that China doesn't allow everyday citizens unlimited access to the internet, we can assume the only ones allowed out are bad actors like badbot, so blocking China entirely would be a net benefit for the entire world. We'd have to get the VPN operators to cooperate, which is near impossible since they'd sell their own mothers for a quick buck.
All the IMAX theaters around my area have closed or are about to.
Now tell us your conspiracy theory about how the fossil fuel industry secretly funds them. And then your other theory about how Jews ran a child rape operation against Americans for the benefit of Israel. Do you have a newsletter we can subscribe to? Someone with important ideas like your must not be silenced!
Frothing eco-marxist is angry.
As you suspect, I would in fact prefer to literally pave the roads with the bodies of the children I am going to kill with my CO2 emissions. Ideally, they're not quite dead yet so their chorus of little screams will cheer me along during my commute. Can we throw in some endangered animals as well?
"Our estimates imply that U.S. innovative firms operate in too few markets relative to the social optimum."
I'm curious what the 'social optimum' is, and who defined it according to what standard.
My point, as you apparently missed it, was that the recording / broadcast industry has massively enriched a few while leaving most artists scratching for pennies. I don't feel the collapse of that business in favor of artists playing live is a terribly sad thing.
Just keep handing your $ to P.Diddy, I guess. Baby oil ain't free.
(shrug) feels like people are missing the point, enraged about the AI origin, and not the fact that it's "fine" compared to the rest of the (human created) slop on the radio.
I don't care in the slightest.
A photograph can more accurately reproduce an image than the most precise painter ever. What did we get since? Picasso, Nieman, and "modern art" that pretends to greatness like the Emperor's New Clothes.
Before the era of recorded music, musicians made a living by live performances and patronage. Now we have DJ Khaled and Kanye, utterly talentless billionaires. Actually talented people can still perform for incomes vastly beyond normal people's dreams. If ai can effortlessly replicate the crap that fills the pop airwaves? So be it.
I run a small regional office for a large multinational.
When I've needed to hire new people, I'm well aware that basically nothing in college prepared me for what we do (manage logistics). But when I put in the job posting that "no college degree is necessary" I get heavy pushback from corporate hr. They actually edited it out once.
They seem to believe that implied that I was just going to hire any deadbeat off the street and not evaluate them like any other hire. I really had to fight for it to remain.
Telling parents - especially young ones - how not to do it is of limited utility.
An adequate bootstrap is a contradiction in terms.
