This happened in international airspace. Doesn't matter what the body of water is called. The entirety of the gulf of Mexico doesn't belong to Mexico either. Nor does the Indian ocean belong to India.
Also the China Sea was originally named by the Portuguese.
He added: “Using imprecise language as an excuse to create plausible ambiguity about whether defendant violated this Court’s unequivocal gag order is not a defense; the subject of Donald Trump’s public statement to the press was unmistakably clear.”
Damn I really wanna see a lot more of this kinda scrutiny on the weasel word bullshit.
Cool of you to go to the trouble. Not super surprising that'd be the result. Really makes you wonder how Apple would approach having a proper search competitor to Google.
It's kinda hard imagining Apple getting into search with how squeaky clean they tend to be about things. Like... picture an Apple search engine returning porn results. Just doesn't really compute.
Yeah I would agree that basically packing the court or waiting out more retirements from right wing judges is about the only realistic path forward, and like you're saying that could take decades.
People in these kinds of discussions being like "WHY CAN'T WE CHANGE THIS OVERNIGHT?" really ought to better inform themselves of how this stuff works. It's not that simple.
Yeah I fall fairly solidly into the left side of the political spectrum, but I think it's fine for any country to tell someone seeking a visa to fuck off when you find out that their twitter history is full of them posting pro ISIS memes. Hard pass, my guy.
The one point about this that I find problematic is that a policy like this is all fine and well until the wrong people get in charge of determining what sort of content is grounds for rejection.
And in that context, this article is pretty timely.
Well nothing you're saying is going to happen. So again, feel free to explain to me how – realistically – people are going to manage to change the 2nd amendment.
Bonus points for doing it without name calling this time.
An amendment may be proposed by a two-thirds vote of both Houses of Congress, or, if two-thirds of the States request one, by a convention called for that purpose. The amendment must then be ratified by three-fourths of the State legislatures, or three-fourths of conventions called in each State for ratification.
Altering the constitution is an extremely tall order in today's US politics. It hasn't been done successfully in over 30 years and the one prior to that was over 50 years ago.
The Republicans can barely even vote in a house speaker right now when they have the required majority to do so. Good luck getting a change to the 2nd amendment through. It's just not going to happen.
As I understand it, 1st amendment protections don't extend to non citizens who have not established legal residency in the US already. So I think the free speech point is moot when we're discussing people attempting to get a visa to come to the US.
Yep everyone's trying to capture market share and stamp out any competitors with shorter funding runways until they achieve some amount of monopolization over the customer base. Then comes the price hikes and other anti consumer bullshit.
Oh yes, please explain to me how the US would go about changing the 2nd amendment right now given how the legal mechanisms for doing so work. It's basically impossible at the moment.
It’s gonna be a real nasty bandaid to pull off but that company shouldn’t have a stranglehold on that information. I hope this move tanks them severely.
If it works anything like the other supposed AI image protector tool I'm aware of (Glaze) then it's not gonna look great and I would not call it a practical way to go. Everything I've seen run through glaze looks objectively worse than the original.
Also in the long run this is just an arms race and it's just a matter of time before models learn to subvert these kinds of tools. And if that's the case that means every time someone figures out how to get over these hurdles, anyone looking to protect their images will have to go back and replace every online instance of those images when the protection tool comes out with a fix. Back and forth forever.
And that's just ridiculous and basically impossible when you realize that stuff gets reposted all over the net all the time and can't be controlled.
