I had this problem like 2 years ago, and assembled my own PDF > jpeg > OCR text. Works wonders. Doesnt do charts clearly because it wont detect a 50% / 50% pie chart, but certainly did tables and stuff, and if there were annotations or text describing it under the chart or image, it would capture that too.

If Apple's AI could do that, I will be honest, I would be shocked. More like a car drives by and it says "OK! Here's some music just for you". Queues music as obnoxious sound levels.

Let's not get caught up in the word-salad headline debate and focus on the real issue. Our government, is spending our tax dollars, to find bugs in our software, and not telling us about those bugs that could be exploited and leave us vulnerable. The US government should not be allowed to silently exploit consumer or commercial software. There should be a law requiring disclosure from government entities or their vendors paid with tax dollars to disclose vulnerabilities to the public, after disclosing to the software vendor, which should be same business day or next business day. Fuck that bullshit of having us pay our government to hack us. Fuck that.

For fucks sake stop demonizing fossil fuels. They are going to return to the biosphere come what may. It is UNNATURAL they they have been sequestered for a few hundred million years, and whether we did it or not, they will return. The concern is that we are returning them fast, but we are not importing carbon from space. There should not be surface ice on the earth with that much carbon in the biosphere but the sequestration was a quirk of biology. As an example it was just strange that lichen evolved to eat bark much later than plants learned to grow it.

Irony? No. This is someone who got paid to do this, working for Toyota, or GM, or Ford, or the UAW. Someone wants these things to fail, and a Tesla doing it is poetic.

So why not put the receiver in a cone that views only the sky for about 10 ft and put a faraday cage on the cone, leaving just the sky open?

I donâ(TM)t think Medical Privacy should be invalid just because you are in space. Sorry if this doesnâ(TM)t not satisfy your curiosity. They are sent there to do work; not provide you entertainment and drama.

All that, you know what is worse? Jew...

602 Palestinians, over 400 of which were kids died from Jan 1 to October 6, 2023. Thats to say nothing of having lost their land, their villages, their farms, their freedom to an inexcusable degree for 75 years. Let's not pretend the Middle East conflict started on Oct 7, 2023. It started when Palestinians accepted Jews coming from Germany, rather than make them settle an Israel in the Rhineland where it should have been.

Even if Hamas was the bad guy, Israel is the insane bad buy with a badge who kills the family the bad guy hides behind with no care for innocent life at all. Fuck them. I hope their country gets pushed into the mediterranean.

*I meant one fucking Genus, or whatever all mosquitoes fall under.

Can we all, please, for the love of humanity, just agree that mosquitoes are a pest that are not worth whatever environmental benefit they *might* have, and just get rid of the entire species with genetic engineering etc? They bring so many diseases (new ones like west nile, etc), and are a nightmare for enjoying the outdoors, which more people will care about if they dont end up with 20 bug bites. Let's just globally get rid of this one fucking species.

Irrespective, it was from an actual artist. He referenced the artist in the tweet. This is a non-non-story

Watch Logan's Run if you think being aegist is a problem. I do not oppose gerontocracy at all, people get to live their lives. They get to vote their minds, and their perspective is as valid as yours, arguably moreso, as it's clear that experience is a prerequisite for wisdom. Not the only one, but one none-the-less.

Star Wars should not get sued from drawing inspiration Foundation, like Foundation should not get sued from drawing inspiration from The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire which Asimov assigned inspiration from, and was the whole point of my original comment. Blatant word for word theft is one thing, but writing stories that are like stories we liked is the nature of our culture.

It's not a concern really because there are natural laws even the US, China, and Russia cant escape: There is only so much carbon in the form of fossil fuels. All fossils came from the biosphere, and were sequestered in the past. Therefore all the fossil fuels we can extract which return to the biosphere, cannot overwhelm the biosphere as thats what was there prior, and the world was ok at the time. Governments will have to answer for shortages when they foolishly did not curb consumption when there was enough left in the ground for a safe departure to other forms of energy. The real crisis will hit when cars cant drive, planes cant fly, and peaker power stations need to shut down down permanently because there simply wont be any fossil fuel left to burn. Its a self-moderating issue.
