That’s the point

It happens everywhere. Just Jannies doing janny things. Sweep it up, janny!

Just keep in mind: he does it for free

These results are just a drop in the bucket in relation to the grim state of German election results and overall societal discourse.

There’s not much room for optimism right now. Very dark skies ahead and things may get much worse before they will become better.

In my workplace we worked tirelessly to get rid of all VMware VMs as fast as possible when new pricing became clear. Thousands migrated. What a huge fuckup by broadcom.

That so called regime is a travesty. Hope the Iranian people can some day be free.

The pendulum is swinging back hard. Let’s just hope we don’t end up way deep into the danger since zone just because woke idiots couldn’t leave “good enough” alone.

12/20 is not a good result. There’s a 25% chance of getting the same score (or better) by just guessing. The comments section is a good place for all the lucky guessers (one out of 4 test takers) to congregate.

Similarly moving on to a decent issue tracker, Jira’s support for Epic’s/stories/tasks/capabilities and its linking ability is a huge simplifier for long term planning.

Modern ticket system or issue tracker? Yes, absolutely. But Jira? Certainly not, considering Atlassian’s business practices. A project like Linux deserves a system where they can maintain some control and it probably should be open source.

Yeah email is ancient and certainly terrible from a usability perspective if you’re an outsider to the workflows, but at least it can’t be shut off or taken away on a whim. Also it’s universal and therefore accessible.

There’s an interesting blog post on this subject (likely someone posted it already): https://dkb.blog/p/google-search-is-dying

I find it to be very agreeable. Search is dying and I don’t agree that appending “site:reddit.com” is any kind of permanent solution, just a workaround that will also break.

Tbf Afghanistan defeated a much stronger Russia back in the 80s.

Those were pretty much the Taliban though. No one doubts the will to fight of the Taliban.

where I’d have to pay around $260/mo for Comcast Premium Plu

That can’t be real. Who pays that for a cable plan (or any kind of entertainment package)?!

Since when does Denuvo block mods?

The whole point of Denuvo (and any DRM in games) is to prevent modifying the running code. Unless there’s some kind of official modding system, there will be no way to inject DLLs or do anything else invasive to the running game.

There are tools that are being used to attempt to detect if a piece of work is AI-generated. If those tools say something was, it’s then on you to prove that you hand-created it.

They don’t work. It’s total bunk.

Even some artists are already having issues because things “look” AI-generated.

Exactly. See above. No one can (confidently) tell which is which. There’s just educated guessing.

Right now, AI-generated works aren’t copyrightable. https://www.artnews.com/art-news/news/ai-generator-art-text-us-copyright-policy-1234661683/ This means you can not copyright the works produced by AI.

…

So right now, common AI is producing works that are potentially copyright-infringing works and are unable to be copyrighted themselves.

This kind of judgement is pure symbolic politics, because it’s completely unenforceable and I’m confused why you didn’t mention it. No one can prove if a piece of art is AI made and no one has to admit it. So yes, AI art can be copyrighted, just not officially as AI art, but it certainly will be and likely already is as long as there’s a human ‘stand in’.

There’s a huge gulf of difference between a matter of fact and a matter of law.

How dare people try to mod a game they bought? What a sad state of affairs, Diablo 2 had such awesome mods.

Half of a fuck-ton is still a lot. If they scale down their operational costs they can still run a very comfortable business for a long while on these kinds of numbers.

When you thought things can’t possible get much worse…

Are there any legit organizations that one can support which help women who still want out to escape this shithole country?

Meh, there’s plenty of naturally occurring things, that look ‘artificial’ to the human eye at first glance.

Some metallic spheres after entry of a meteoroid into earths atmosphere are not enough unless you explain how they couldn’t have formed naturally.
