If they're thinking of making "style" something that can be copyrighted, then the effects on AI will be trivial compared to the general creative apocalypse as giant corporations lock everything down and go to war with each other.
What privacy? The Fediverse runs on an open protocol. Everything you say and do is transmitted to the world. If you're posting here your data isn't being bought and sold by big tech, it's being given to them.
This isn't to say that the Fediverse is a bad place or anything, just pointing out one of the tradeoffs in how it works. It's not under any one organization's control but there's consequences from that.
Regardless of how you feel about it, you've now discovered something very important; your wife is the sort of person who would lie to you about something very important. I'd recommend contacting a lawyer to make sure that you're ready to protect your interests just in case some kind of escalation happens. Her behaviour hasn't changed now, while she thinks you don't know, but who knows what could happen if she finds out you do?
I'm not saying you should do anything vindictive preemptively, just things like making sure the titles for your property are properly registered or your pension plan is fully in your name, that sort of thing.
That's not really true, though. That region has undergone numerous cycles of fragmentation and reunification over that period of time, with different cultures and different dynasties taking over from each other.
Nobody's forcing you to use it. I didn't even know it was there until this article pointed it out, and when I tried it in Notepad it turned out to need an Office 365 subscription that I don't have. So by default I can't use it even if I want to use it.
I think the monkey's paw isn't done with Putin on this one yet, though. Trump's antics are cratering oil prices, which Russia absolutely depends on for survival. A drop in oil prices is one of the precipitating events for the end of the Soviet Union.
And just generally, Trump is random chaos, a monster that lots of people thought they could control but turns out to be unmanageable. He bites everyone around him eventually. Helping Trump get elected may have wrecked America but that's not going to save Russia.
All well and good until my mom's wifi printer stops working again and I need to fix it over the phone. I'd rather like to have an AI agent figure that out for her and fix it itself.
Google recently opened their ecosystem up to find-my-device tags like this, they're available from providers like Chipolo. Last I heard they weren't very good yet because despite there being tons of Android phones around for them to work with they'd put some restrictions on them that made them ping less frequently.
They're also not GPS tags, they ping nearby Android phones via Bluetooth and the Android phones report their location to Google. But if you're worried about a bag being stolen (as opposed to, for example, being located if you're lost in the wilderness) then that might be enough.
No, he didn't. He said, effectively, that "second amendment freaks are Walking Dead fans." That does not imply the reverse, that "Walking Dead fans are second amendment freaks."
Ah, so that's what those two swellings on her chest are.
