No mystery why Slashdot's active users are in the three figures.

If I operate a motorized vehicle on the street I need a license, insurance, registration and a street-legal vehicle. It's already against the law for an unlicensed little shit with no lights, safety equipment or common sense to suddenly dart out into traffic, swerve through screeching tires and near-misses and then do a wiseass pop back on to the sidewalk at 20-30 MPH. It's against the law to ride a motorized vehicle on the sidewalk too.

Oh, and shout out to the Mensa members who do the same thing wearing dark clothing at night at busy intersections. Every one of those goddamn bikes comes with lights installed. Except yours. Right bro?

Get a license and insurance or get the fuck off the road.

"Imagine you're in the Arctic, a voice from a meditation video tells them, with snowflakes melting on your skin."

And you're too goddamn stupid to realize you're freezing to death. Maybe they'll ping your phone and find you in a frozen doomscrolling pose under 17 feet of snow. Public education is really lighting up that scoreboard!

Bullshit.

Steal until you have it all, then hire a security guard.

Now they have another excuse for brutal company-wide layoffs.

If you honestly think you can make a movie anyone would want to watch with AI prompts you are a fucking idiot. Thank you.

Instead of telling the publisher, we'll just redirect all those links to our cash register!

You try that shit on my site and my lawyers will form a litigation Voltron that will bend light.

It's funny when it's not you, isn't it?

Let me guess. You thought "tuk r jerbs" was funny too, didntcha?

They're all clearly unqualified losers who don't have any marketable skills. Right Reddit? ^H^H^H^H I mean Slashdot?

It's called creating a derivative work. Manuscript -> training model. That is a right reserved exclusively to the copyright owner under 17 U.S.C. Section 106.

Swiping an entire work (in secret) to create a commercial derivative and then renting it to customers worldwide is not fair use.

The book. Not the property.

How the Internet declares books worthless and writing a wasted degree until some sociopath asshole wants to build a trillion-dollar mountain of bullshit with them?

Under Article I section 10 of the Constitution, states are forbidden to enter into treaties or alliances with foreign nations. This includes trade agreements. Those are all exclusive powers reserved to the federal government.

AI can do anything. Except pay.
