Semantics. If person A is protected by privacy rights in her jurisdiction, but her data is scraped by project B from one where such rights conveniently aren't legally respected, A should still be able to expect some way of injunction.
For context, Rock Paper Shotgun is a gaming site, which is why the reviewer focuses so heavily on game performance on different mini PCs. Unsurprisingly, the answer to the title isn't an unequivocal "yes", but some of the little lunch boxes fare quite well despite their limited specs.
A more accurate title would be "Should gamers bother with mini PCs," but given their audience that would be superfluous 🙂 I think mini PC gaming will continue to be a niche interest, but there are certainly other and probably better uses for the tiny computers.
Yeah, the only threat to Big Tech is that they might sink a lot of money into training material they'd have to give away later. But releasing the material into the Public Domain is not exactly an improvement for the people whose data and work has been used without consent or payment.
"Congratulations, your rights are still being violated, but now the data is free to use for everyone".
I guess White's Web3 is going just great updates hurt some butts? I mean, it can't be fun to be up to your neck in an elaborate scam and have somebody keep showing you receipts proving that you're in fact up to your neck in an elaborate scam.
I'm genuinely curious, can't find many banana pizza recipes that aren't smeared with nutella as well. I assume this is a white pizza base since you mention mascarpone? Then banana topping with a sprinkle of grated hard cheese?
Oh absolutely! That's pretty much a 400 year bracket starting with Disco s1 (2257 CE). Plenty of opportunity for Mirror Universe shenanigans even beyond the Picard years.
What was Cronenberg Kovich's line about that again? "The Mirror Universe has been drifting away" or some such?
I'm willing to bet the Terran Empire tried some multiversal invasion that exploded in their collective face and blew them across the quantum plane (if that's a thing). The Quantum portal could easily be written into that.
Oh, there's a huge push to use Copilot in the entire Microsoft office suite now. My workplace is going all in on the damn thing, and I'm sure LibreOffice are also trying to nap some users as the next Windows version looms.
This show has been a balm for my worst nerd impulses since episode 1, and I will miss it. As finales go, I think this was damn near perfect, too.
Like others have mentioned, Rutherford's sudden frustration with the Cerritos felt a little off to me, but that's really small fry in the larger picture of

a bona fide, stable quantum portal to parallel universes hanging around the Alpha quadrant since 2382!

Wow, you'd think that would have been brought up even tangentially in Prodigy or chronologically later set shows? It could even feasibly have been used to

bring Mirror Giorgiou home to her own universe in Discovery s3.

But what do I know, it might not be as stable as it looked in this episode...
Probably to position themselves in relation to Microsoft offerings eager to siphon as much user data as possible for their own ratty "AI" and passing the rest off to third parties?
Probably true. I don't see anything like that in the article, though?
