Red Kool-Aid and blue Kool-Aid both taste like bitter almonds. And the food coloring used is the only difference between the two.

I included a link for a reason.

But I suppose that's too subtle for some.

The best way to teach them the perils of trusting government is to encourage them to do so.

As they're learning, slowly and painfully.

It is one of life's supreme ironies that today's left so ardently wants to emulate Tail Gunner Joe.

Founds the commie insurgent.

Irrelevant, when the work it not copyrightable to begin with.

Star Trek established 50 years ago that computers should have women's voices, because a computer with a man's voice would turn on you eventually.

The actual science on the "pay gap" says that it comes from two sources:

First, women negotiate differently for pay than men. Men generally negotiate primarily for money, consistent with the traditional societal role of being the "breadwinner." Women negotiate more for flexibility, consistent with the traditional societal role as caregivers for family, especially children. In short, women are, on average, more likely to negotiate for flexible hours so they can take the kids to school, than men.

And second, women take more time off after childbirth, by enough of a margin (often a few weeks vs several months or even a year) that a woman of a given age will have less seniority than a man of the same age in the same job.

Taking the second into account, a lot of the pay gap goes away.

Censorship is speech that causes considerable harm to the both the victim and the one doing it.

The difference between not wanting to see their show and not wanting anyone else to see their show is very important. The former is ordinary, the latter his dangerous, cult-like behavior.

It hasn't been to SCOTUS yet, but the current position of the Library of Congress (whose decision it is, so far) is that stuff created by AI is not, in fact, copyrightable. There's case law on it.

That is how it works. So far.

No, you're missing that it being irrelevant is the point.

I believe that's the point.

You say that like you believe it's not one of those bots.

So how is this different from the way it's always worked? It's never been difficult to spot AI slop precisely because of how similar it all is.
