Honestly it doesn't seem all that different than using stack exchange. Usually the answers are incomplete or not for your particular problem but it can give you hints and a good starting point.
Remember citizens, it's your duty to keep a clear hue.
Imagine living in such a dystopia that just searching for relevant laws makes you fear retaliation and prison.
Oh wait.
Remind me why your particular need, or lack thereof, should matter to everyone else in their decision making?
Can you prove to me that the post you wrote wasn't generated from a word-association model and that you understood the article?
Even if he was a woman, it's not like another woman having constitutional right to an abortion would affect them anyway. They'd still be able to refuse to have one themselves.
Which is an entirely different matter than who would be affected by companies being basically unregulated in what they can put in the air and the water.
Everyone seems to miss the part where they explicitly filtered out faces from the training data set.
Hard disagree.
I've done a few experiments with it. I've used it to generate square textures that could be used for texturing 3D models. If you look at this like it's just some kind of meme generation tool and immediately discount memes as worthless, then you're missing a much bigger picture.
Yes yes, the real world has problems therefore any effort on anything that isn't directly those problems is a waste of time and effort. Good thing there are people who don't think like that, or you'd be out of a job and we wouldn't have things like the internet.
Any link or source for this information? I can't find anything on it.
A number of people were just using it to have a custom domain and that's all. I never used any of their "Business" services, just the standard stuff you'd get with a normal free gmail account.
My only complaint really is that they didn't offer a very good solution for those types of users. I still don't need any of their business shit, but now I'm stuck with 2 email addresses I have to pay for indefinitely because all of my bills and accounts are tied into those two emails and there's really no easy way to work around that except pay $12 a month for the same service most people still get for free.
You seem to be mistaking "It's not something everyone does" with "It's not something anyone does."
If you listed worlds by popularity in VR Chat, You'll see movie theaters (with actual streamable movies) at the top of that list.
Just last week, I strapped a Valve Index to my face and watched a Spiderman movie.
No one who hasn't already been a part of this from the start knows what "metaverse" even means.
Sweeney here is right about one thing: The so-called metaverse isn't for business, it's for entertainment. Although this "guys can only sit in a room with each other if they're playing darts or something" take is hilariously out of touch with reality.
Lots of people play in "Flat screen" mode, thought how many or what ratio I couldn't say, as social VR isn't really my thing. I do VR for fitness and not so social fun. Things like Skyrim in VR are a blast.
Social VR with the full motion controls is quite immersive though. You can play darts, pool, any number of other games. You can communicate with body language like you would in real life. Or you can just sit there and play flat screen and voice chat people. The important thing to remember is that VR isn't just some "Oh look I have depth perception now!" gimmick. It's about transporting you to another place, as best we can, with today's technology. It's trying to be a holodeck, not a movie 3D movie theater.
In case you're serious, let's first get it out of the way: The headsets aren't for everyone. If you don't get anything out of it, that's fine.
What other people do get out of a headset is: Immersion. Some people can sit in front of a screen and feel like they are "there" just fine. The headset isn't just about what you see however, it's how you see it, and just as much, how you participate. You don't just sit there, you stand up, you kneel, you move your arms around. You're not longer looking through a little window into another world, you are *in* another world.
