OpenAI clearly already scraped the pre-LLM (aka actually useful) content from SO, this entire deal is happening after the fact to avoid litigation.

Is it possible for someone to not be actively anti-something, or the lack if being so will qualify them as pro-something?

FWIW, the manifest v3 implementation in firefox is not user-hostile. They made it compatible, but the limitations on filtering are not there.

She’s not a “children’s author”, she hired a ghost writer. To write a book about children dealing with grief.

I really miss that fleeting moment when all messaging apps were using either open protocols or at least they weren’t hostile against alternative clients. It was really nice to be able to use one client to log in to gtalk, msn etc. at the same time.

Youtube never asked for my ID (I’m in the EU). Which country is this?

Your third point is an active research topic, we can’t explain exactly what generative (and other) models do beyond their generic operation.

Why?

What’s the background of the lxd-incus fork? On the project page they just state that it was forked after Canonical took over lxd - but what does that mean, exactly? How did they take over an open project? Was there a technical reason for a fork?

It’s the worst way to document something (doesn’t even make sense to call it documentation). It’s closed source and the content is only accessible if you register with an email address.

That car fire was after stanley cups were already huge

Ah ok, I’ll take another look then. Thanks!

This link opens to a thread about email providers. Is this what you meant to post?

You assume that bad things only happen to bad people. This is called the just-world belief and it’s a major source of cognitive dissonance today. If they get locked up as innocent people, that would be injustice, therefore you assume they are gangbangers.

Great!

I just ran into that the other day. I solved it by installing noscript, setting a permissive default (I don’t want to make my life harder) and blocking scripts on CNN. It works well.

Recently I started to use reader mode a lot, it tends to work in many cases for this purpose.

Bro, I do file bug reports and even fix things from time to time, Wayland is so broken for me I can’t work. Also, when bug reports are met with “it’s nvidia’s fault” and hostility towards the submitter, that further turns me off from participating.

For me, it’s neither the price nor the quality of apps (idgaf, it plays music in the background). The thing that pushes me towards piracy is the same as for movies and TV shows: disappearing content. Because of content licensing deals, every piece of media is temporary on a service. I do rewatch movies from time to time and it’s infuriating if it’s gone (or rather would be, if I was still paying for any streaming service). This is especially true for music. My Spotify favorites list has a huge percentage of greyed out entries (and I’m pretty sure there are things that were outright deleted).

Pretty sure this serves two purposes: to not leave money on the table (as terrible as that sounds, the non-EU market is still milkable for them), and to prepare investor sentiment for the inevitable loss of revenue in a year or so.
