I have said this for years. The man is a bonafied used car salesman with no morals.

I remember hearing about police thermal camera use being unconstitutional (or at least not allowed) in some places. How is this different?

I would like to add I have no source for this it's just something I remember hearing and you shouldn't believe people on the Internet do some research in verified sources or reputable news organizations and definitely don't just blindly believe what I have to say, but if it's for entertainment purposes then sure believe me. I believe me but I'm not heavily invested in verifying this fact.

When I started the game I ended up aquiring a strange character, but was not really sure if she was part of the game and I just missed some cutscenes when she joined or maybe she was actually on the mind flayer ship...

Now 20 hours into the game I am realizing that no, she is actually someone else's character. Apparently when someone else joins your game their character gets tied to your playthrough and you cannot get rid of them. Ever.

What in the actual fuck.

A. I never invited anyone to play the game with me

B. Why are people allowed to join by default? Especially if it introduced a permanent character to their playthrough?

C. WHY ARE OTHER PEOPLES CHARACTERS PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO YOUR PLAYTHROUGH.

The game has been fantastic so far, but having just realized she's not part of the story what in the ever living fuck why is this not like a day one option to get rid of characters that aren't your own character. It makes no sense.

I think the issue is that it's really really hard to build a model that only uses data from one source.

But if someone/company were to provide/produce millions of pieces of their own training data they can build a model that is solely owned by them, or make that available for licensing.

But how do you prove what data gets distilled into a model? Especially if it takes an enormous amount of time and energy to build the model?

Perhaps there needs to be a way to permanently tag input information that is used to build models... and have a way to segregate/remove infringing information. Perhaps a first true usecase for crypto/NFT's.

My 980 2tb died due to the firmware and Samsung just refused to reply to any of my warranty requests.

So I refused to buy their drives, and have since spent about 1k on 16TB of WD drives.

If Linus was his own boss he'd have fired himself.

This is some shit. I'm actually glad I didn't apply to do engineering work there now. I am realizing if this kind of stuff had happened to me I'd likely be fired because I would nip that shit in the bud immediately, if it happened to me or if I had seen it happening to someone else. It's not right.

  • make them stupid
  • make them poor
  • give them guns
  • make them angry

And then you shake it all about.

A $100million dollar company should be able to reclaim that property even if it means paying through the nose to get it back to the rightful owner. Losing a mass production GPU is one thing, that can be fixed with a check. A one of a kind prototype though? And who would make the decision to give something like that away, especially without consent? Things like that should come with a letter of endorsement of the charity sale, or at least have a (year plus) pause before just giving it away.
