This page claims over 400,000 recordings but links to a listing of only 187,034 audio files. I'm guessing the discrepancy is the girth of the suit: IA agreed to take down the files that the plaintiffs could prove were theirs and no money changed hands.
the feather to leaf however might be an overreaction, but ultimately harmless.
Is it harmless? That's an opinion. Not one I share either.
Is the change an overreaction? That's also an opinion. My answer is, it is no more an "over reaction" than people clammoring for the change in the first place is .
Why is it NOT an overreaction when a feather needs to be changed because someone somewhere was offended, and removing it offends someone else? Who's Offense Matters MORE? Is it offensive or is it honoring? That is the real question and who gets to decide?
And Who gets to decide who decides? Thats the real problem.
Dutch Tulips!
Nothing new under the sun. This is the same same. I view most Crypto currencies this way. They are mostly worthless, with people waiting to rug each other.
Let's compare, shall we?
This:
Personally, I'm on Team Tables here. Maybe in a decade or three this will be practical.
I heard FAT12 had it beat for raw performance.
"Stolen" clearly indicates you are just repeating the MSM cover lies to cover up their "all the hallmarks of Russian Disinformation".
It was NOT stolen, it was ABANDONED by Mr Biden (the crack addict) at a repair shop.
If you think Russia propaganda has any influence on 162 Million voters enough to change anything (2024), please keep spewing that opinion.

Guilible is believing 51 Intelligence Agents trying to debunk a crack addict's laptop. But that was the exact case that actuallly swayed an election. In fact, it was called "Russian disinformation" at the time, when it wasn't.
The real disinformation came from our own government, our MSM, our social media.
Russia is a nothing country with Nukes. That is the ONLY thing that gives them any strength. Pakistan might have just as much influence as Russia at this point for the same reason.

It all depends on where the ecryption happens.
Client side, the data is encrypted by you before it even goes to iCloud or whereever.
Server side, the data is encrypted by the provider (iClound or whatever) on your behalf with a unique key that the server has.
IF you aren't doing the encryption, it isn't encrypted, only the illusion of encryption is happening.
I don't use Biomentric Passkeys for this very reason. They cannot compel me to type in or tell them my password, but they can force me to use a fingerprint or facescan.
They cannot compel me without a court order (or three dollar wrench).
"I don't answer questions. I want my lawyer. Am I free to go? Am I being detained and for what RAS do you have right now? I do not have to help you 'investigate' "
The problem with Civil Liberties (me being a libertarian) is that government intrusion into our lives is already done, and both D and R have contributed. The Dems take a little here, the R takes a little there and the next thing you know, "Papers Please". Government intrusion says the camel's nose is inside the tent.
Not sure where you stand on Opening Up Encryption
Broken clocks are right every so often, and this is a No Brainer for me. Don't Fold To Foreign Despotic States.
The title says it all. Anyone willing to bow down to opening up Encryption to despotic states for just $$ doesn't deserve the $$ they have.
"Hello, Ecuadorian embassy? Yes, I heard about the weird shit with the cat, but listen..."
Also possible. OpenAI's models do love their bullet points, and especially having exactly three examples in a list. The catchphrase "math magic" at the end also reeks of GPT-4's didactic blandishment.
