Trump is demented. That's a different disability.

While he was never a good legal businessman, he seems to have been a capable gangster. But now he's lost most of his marbles, and the rest are rolling away rapidly.

Demonstrate that they're being enforced before claiming they're enforceable.

It's not often I say this, but China definitely has the right idea when it comes to executive liability for corporate misdeeds".

Here you are crying about Marxism again while also being a person who wants your relatives to get more free money. Shouldn't your family be paying for that if you're so against collectivism? You don't have beliefs, only arguments, so why should anyone care about your emotional appeals?

Nvidia doesn't need to care because people are stupid and will buy their shit whether they are assholes or not. A few informed customers may switch but most people aren't informed.

The Republican plan to dumb down voters until they are stupid enough to vote Republican has secondary effects, who knew?

You don't know enough to speak to that, which I covered elsewhere in this conversation. Your opinion about it is uninteresting.

Everyone is misunderstanding the intent behind this. The key phrase in TFA is "unlicensed AI output".

Music charts don't measure popularity, they do their damnedest to create it. From the famous RIAA payola scandal (which very much still happens, it's just structured slightly differently to remain legal) to the latest breakout nepo-baby somehow charting in the top ten despite nobody ever having heard of them the day prior - The various recording industry groups exist to promote their members - who are not the actual artists - and couldn't care less about accuracy.

There's nothing human about "the machine" (now an oddly ironic description) fearing AI generated music because it very much is an existential threat to them. I'm neither a fanboy nor hater of AI, but it won't be long before it doesn't suck and these whores can no longer control the market.

Yes - "Thank you sir, may I have another?"

We live in a world where everyone on the planet, on every side of the issue, knows perfectly well 34-time felon and adjudicated sexual assailant Donald J. Trump is at the very least a pedo rapist, a corrupt and incompetent businessman who managed to bankrupt the licenses-to-print-money that are casinos, and was quite possibly Epstein's boss rather than merely a prolific client of the largest human sex trafficking operation known to modern history. And yet somehow, his base is willing to draw a line in the sand over some mythical official release of the Epstein files. The same Epstein files that would 1) completely exonerate him if his story is true, and 2) have already been sufficiently released and/or leaked prior to redactiongate to eliminate any reasonable presumption of innocence.

This is a relatively minor retaliation case. Unless Kegsbreath needs a distraction from his next drunken compromise of opsec, this ruling will be publicly acknowledged with some whining, then privately ignored anywhere it matters. It's a hefty uphill battle to ever "prove" Anthropic doesn't get a particular contract in violation of Lin's ruling.

Sure, just not many 8 year olds are customers. It's teenagers.

It's not stupid if chaos and destruction are the goals. It's only evil.

To maggots anyone not on their party line is wrong. Too bad that party line is an unprotected signal chat.

You were mad that efforts were being made to make up for prejudicial treatment that you have benefited from and now you want to cry about it here and get other people to comisserate with you over it. You proved exactly how necessary such efforts are with your crybaby reaction.

I have at least one persistent moderation troll. The usual one mods down three in a row without concern for appearances because he knows that slashdot protects anyone who increases post count

You realize Netanyahu is Jewish, right?

I can't speak for the GP, but in my case it was a sort of "constructive dismissal" that finally pushed me away from all things FB-related.

I used to enjoy outing scammers on IG. I was even so naive as to think I was in some small way doing the platform a service by sticking a red flag on its bad actors. Whoops, guess what, folks? Scammers drive engagement and that's all these platforms care about. So I started getting progressively longer mutings after every post or comment I'd make, regardless of how tame - It got to the point where I finally rage-quit after getting a three-day ban immediately (as in, the notification arrived exactly as I hit post, so there's not even a chance I was reported that fast) for commenting something like "nice sunset, wish I was there!" to a close friend.
