Comment Re: Age-Verification Bill Excludes Open-Source (Score 2) 21

Open source operating systems are why this bill is stupid. They are trying to take the burden of age verification off of the likes of Facebook and Google and put it on the operating system. Even Fedora, Debian, and Arch all support this, a kid who wants to get on facebook can hack their own open source operating system and get around this requirement. The burden of verification should be on the content maker, not the operating system. If they are worried about the 1% who can use Linux then they should not be doing at the operating system level.

Not to nitpick, but it says they are killing the credit, not the idea. It says there was never regulation mandating it. If customers want this feature then they can keep buying it. They just won't get help paying for it from the US gov, or in other words we don't all have to pay for it to be installed on someone else's car. If people think it's a good feature then they should keep buying the option though.

Whose standard though? X11 is a standard. Gnome and Mozilla seem to consider microsoft the standard because control-c does not even copy on a mac. I am a gnome user and a firefox user and i do not want my settings changed to be like microsoft because someone thinks the microsoft way is âoestandardâ or somehow better.

You cannot copyright an art style. You can have trademarks for your characters though, so OpenAI could be violating trademark law. This is how Disney protects their characters. Copyright only prevents exact duplication of works. Piracy is copyright violation, but AI using content for training is not. Governments could change laws or create new laws about AI training, but I have not heard of any so far.

I donâ(TM)t think all the blame for intel is on the fabs. They had stuff made by TSMC and it really was not better. Errors is they their firmware files led to issues in their 13 and 14 gen. That is really what made those stop selling. Intel failed to keep their Engineers where they needed them and did not pursue the right goals. I think their turn around is very possible. I would have said guaranteed, but then they hired Tan.

Interesting analogy, but it does not hold up for me because special actions have to be taken to physically move a package faster. Actions have to be taken to prioritize internet traffic, rather than to have neutrality. In other words Postal neutrality requires special action while Net neutrality requires that you take no action, which is the exact opposite. Special action means cost. No action means no cost. Iâ(TM)m not trying to argue for net neutrality here. Iâ(TM)m just saying the analogy does not work for me.
