I’m happy with outgroup x being able to develop their own AIs, because that means I’m able to develop AIs too.

Staggeringly naive, tbh. Your profession will be made obsolete as a self-sustaining for-profit enterprise either way. The difference is that the tooling can either be owned exclusively by megacorp, or it can be owned by people.
It’s better to be a bard relying on the charity and small custom of others than a literal sharecropper fueling Universal’s proprietary model for next to nothing. At least in the former case you’re free.
In Italy’s case, it will be its long track record of poor governance combined with the close intertwining of media interests and political parties. Live sport is just about all these subscription broadcasters have left, so a vicious defense is to be expected.
Then said tools were made a lot simpler with a lot less control over them
Which needs to be reversed if we’re to remain free in Western democracies. Access to and control of computing - general purpose computing in particular - is practically a civil liberty now. I look at legislators in my own country, and I’d wager 50% of them don’t understand this, 40% kind of grasp the problems but are apathetic, and 10% are on the enemies’ payrolls.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the average consumer does more for the environment by reducing consumption by 10% and not recycling anything, than maintaining normal consumption and regularly recycling.
Advertisers working in your native language cannot hijack your attention when foreign language videos are running. Subtitling facilitates that, and encourages site activity that differs from consumption, such as broadening one’s horizons and being inquisitive about the real world.
Any way of having the crossposts section minimized by default? The sole setting relating to crossposts is about link inclusion.
2023 turned web2 platforms into the Thing, and turned us into MacReady.

Started playing Rain World. I’m getting huge ICO vibes.
I started watching TNG. There’s so many episodes; I’m only three in and it’s already cosy hearing ‘captain’s log’ however
What is the total airport traffic over the same time? I’m interested in getting a sense of the likelihood of a search request.
In any event I’d buy a post office POS for the purpose and use an inflammatory password. Cuck those funts. Call it part of the cost of travel.
Tackle, reclaim…these are marketing terms. How does the campaign operate? Reading between the lines I guess venues are supposed to feel pressure not to hire certain bands based on SNH paraphernalia being all over the place.
Can I listen to metal bands with hatred as a theme/inspiration and not ‘be’ a hater, or does that not fly in these circles?
The cost of paper and plastic recycling is passed on with the co-operation of government. Their interests are aligned with those of industry. The cost is handballed (‘externalized’ if you want the slime term) first to individuals and ultimately to the environment. With moral hazards like this I wouldn’t expect substantial change to be driven by authorities. It’s going to take technological breakthroughs.
Whenever I see Harris, all I can think of is the Backpage . com miscarriage of justice.
In today’s screencap: failure to recognize the weapon being deployed against your enemy can easily be deployed against you.

With respect OP, blow it out your ass. Think twice before posting paywalled material or at least kindly run it through a cleaner (the source can be gleaned by including the original URL). Alternately you could spend a few moments pasting important sections in the post body.
My question is: what’s the point of sharing folders in a p2p program and denying access to these folders?
I’ve asked many of them, including one who wanted not only a vinyl for a vinyl but one with an equivalent number of tracks. They never answer me, because they never arrived at their absurd position using reason to begin with. They fundamentally misunderstand p2p filesharing, in that they believe it’s a zero-sum game.
Your best attack: polite annoyance. Ping them when you see them. Hi x. I want to download from you. My files are available - Soulseek is for sharing. Please give me access, even if it’s temporary/capped transfer. It would be great to see more people use private chat to wear them down and call out poor behavior. Even if they block you, that’s still a bit of overhead they’re having to contend with.
Your best defense: modeling the behavior you want to see. Traders are still very much a minority. Keep online over the long term, keep your shares available, and they’ll stay that way.
The purpose of the piece is to smear the notion of individual control and development of AI tools. It’s known as ‘running propaganda’.
