1,318 seasons means 1,318 seasons, not 1,318 total sales. Click on the notice in the article for a list of all the seasons of different shows if you still don't understand.

Each season could have been bought by 100 people, or by 1,000 people. Seasons of popular shows like Mythbusters might have been bought by millions of people. We have no idea how many customers are affected since it doesn't list that information.

Bro your reading comprehension is something else.

Um, what? You think removing 1,318 seasons of shows only affects 100 users? They've been selling these since the PS3 era and it's hundreds of millions of devices.

...did you possibly think it meant 1,318 total purchases? 😂

That S looks way cooler than this car, though.

It's a manmade lake, for what it's worth.

Begging the question - when did you learn that gay people exist?

No, not even a little bit. "Who" is the subject of the relative clause. "Whom" would be completely incorrect.

It wasn't worth $44 billion when he bought it. That's why he tried desperately to back out. The reason the company is in such a dire financial situation is specifically because it was bought at that price and now pays debt service far disproportionate to its actual worth.

You're also confusing company valuation with operating revenue. $44 billion isn't how much cash they have on hand and $75 million doesn't get subtracted from that, so expressing that percentage makes no sense. One number isn't a percent of the other.

Twitter's ad revenue is already down more than 50% since the takeover and this is $75 million more of lost revenue on top of that. The company was maybe on a path to profitability at full advertising revenue and without the debt service, but now it is burning cash even as revenues tank.

Ooh, now do positive vs. negative reinforcement!

In a month this will be a hot new A1111 extension for hybridizing visual concepts.

Yo have you heard about Liberty Mutual

Use FreeTube as a desktop app or use a VPN set to a different country. Canada seems to be working fine for me.

Or your salary will go up 2% while the price of everything else goes up 8%.

I will abide the cauliflower rice, but where are the peas?

Those vehicle warranty ads are so insidious. The ones I get use packaging that's typically reserved for official government mailers and sometimes include the name of a govt agency that has nothing to do with them.

Whenever I throw one out I imagine how many elderly people must be mistaking them for govt business and getting fleeced out of their money.

Pretty sure the sub is beyond the environment

The number of people with strong opinions on AI vastly exceeds the number of people who understand transformers architecture.

A name is a noun, not a pronoun, but the site seems to allow "none/use name" as an option.

Copyright law does not explicitly cover inclusion in a training data set, though that will be tested by a number of court cases currently underway.

Copyright historically is exactly what it says in its name: the right to copy or reproduce an image for commercial purposes. Because an AI doesn't reproduce the images in its training data set, and because AI generation models do not include the image data of their training set, it's not explicitly covered.

My personal opinion is that copyright law would need to be updated to cover the training data case, but the courts could circumvent that and declare it covered under existing law. That would be based on a misunderstanding of how image generation works, but courts don't always necessarily act based on technical understanding.

No, that's just completely wrong. Taiwan's government was created when Chiang Kai-Shek fled mainland China in the 1950s. It's the continuation of the Republic of China that governed the entire country of China before the PRC government took over.

Saying that the PRC created the ROC name is ridiculous. The ROC predates the creation of the PRC and is the older name. The PRC didn't even exist when it was created. Also suggesting that the PRC would ever endorse the ROC in any format is silly. Their entire position is that the ROC doesn't exist.

You should go read a Wikipedia article on the history of Taiwan as your grasp of the history here is not strong.
