But it's been lossy compressed into a big parameter store and you can't reproduce it exactly, so it's not the same ... also that means JPEGs a 50% compression and DVD encodes of BluRays should be totally legal for anyone to sell.

There are several copyright cases going through the courts right now. I have little doubt one will eventually request certiorari from SCOTUS. High courts in Europe might rule differently. The hypocrisy of all these companies is deafening. I hope someone just leaks GPT-5.x and/or Fable-5 at some point.

You got Google you can look up what I wrote and confirm it.

In my experience, when a person asks for a citation to some purported fact somebody posted and the guy posting it responds "Google it", this almost always means "I don't have a citation", which usually translates "I heard it on the internet somewhere, not sure where."

Oddly, I was prepared to believe you right up to the moment you posted this.

... all the V2V and V2X telematics that the experts have promised? Oh, that's right. This stuff won't work unless 100% of the traffic adopts the protocols. Poor people, say goodby to your 10 year old sedan*.

Seriously, it's just a matter of installing Opticom receivers on autonomous vehicles. Or a radar detector receiver that can handle SWS (Safety Warning System) messages. And then put transmitters in emergency vehicles.

*Basing traffic safety on V2V/V2X communications is a lost cause. Because bicycles won't have them. And homeless bums wandering aimlessly through traffic won't either. But I'm repeating myself.

Not exactly the same, but I remember seeing a study saying that humans only select from about 50 foods.If you give them access to 1000 or more foods, such as in a supermarket, they'll develop about 50 foods that they think of as available resources, and the rest they just ignore, the same way you'd ignore a rock when you're foraging.
It becomes a problem for people without enough food, because they might have free food available but if it isn't one of those 50 foods they'll look at just like they're looking at a rock.
(Orangutans can remember and select from about 450 foods, for context)

It completely makes sense that other areas of life would have similar constraints.

You're trying (for whatever reason) to be excessively obtuse, but you veered off into plain stupidity.

SFO is not planning to add housing, healthcare, or education to the private terminal.

And if they did, it would be extreme luxury housing, luxury healthcare spa, and elite education that you never had access to and certainly didn't take for granted.

And beyond that, if you're used to taking housing, healthcare, and education for granted you were just a naive moron who never looked out their window at what other people were experiencing.

And then... video games?!?!? You were always a bit daft, but... maybe you should see your doctor about your recent mental decline? Also... Steam sale weeks. A few times a year.
