This. The whole point of freedom is that every person gets to choose for themselves, and the government should be preserving that choice and limiting elements that take choice away. It's morally reprehensible to support choice only when it's choices that you agree with, that's how state religions became a thing in the first place.
Innocent until proven guilty still matters though, even when it seems like the justice system moves at a snail's pace. His actions are coming down on him, and I think he'll be behind bars before the election, but until then there's no legal basis to block him from anything
They're saying that someone that makes $250,000 today lives the lifestyle that would have been considered middle class 20 years ago, not that that salary is at all a median
Yeah, they all download files in a proprietary format so you can only watch using their app, it's not just a .mp4 that you can use whenever
Being an actor requires pointing guns at people, it's just part of the job. You can't apply gun safety to things that are supposed to be harmless props. That's why it really isn't his fault for pointing a prop at someone and pulling the trigger, it's the fault of the armouror for handing him something that wasn't a prop.
Granted, he hired an under qualified armouror, didn't take safety seriously, and allowed the stage gyns to be used with real ammo, and that's all on Alex the producer from a civil liability standpoint. But it's not a slight against Alex the actor
Now I kind of want to know what that tastes like. Like a big part of what we consider "spicy" is that it triggers the "very hot" sensors in our mouth without triggering the "warm" sensors that are usually triggered with it, so you end up with a combination that's usually impossible. Mint+ chilli powder would be like the next level of that, triggering both hot and cold at the same time
The part they're misremembering is that if you used 39 digits of pi as pi (not 45), it would be enough to calculate the circumference of the observable universe with a forward error of less than the width of a hydrogen atom (not the distance between 3)
This. It is able to tap in to plugins and call functions though, which is what it really should be doing. For math, the Wolfram alpha plugin will always be more capable than chatGPT alone, so we should be benchmarking how often it can correctly reformat your query, call Wolfram alpha, and correctly format the result, not whether the statistical model behind chatGPT happens to use predict the right token
It's a really cool technology, but the main problem is that letting people around the world inspect and verify just isn't needed in most use cases. It does a great job at removing the central source of truth, but rarely does anyone explain what the problem with a central source of truth was. Especially when you're talking about a company setting, startups don't want to build open source software without a source of truth, they want to be the source of truth
Considering all of the things that could have gone wrong, this is basically best case scenario lol
Fundamentally the risk to the community is similar, all it takes is for an instance administrator to decide to nuke the community and there'll be nothing we can do about it. But unlike on Reddit, there's no single administrator that can nuke every piracy community. There will always be a piracy community somewhere on Lemmy, even if it isn't this one
Separation of church and state is always a good thing, I'm not arguing against that, but this feels like a whole different level. If anything, this is the state taking an active role in changing the rules of the church. That's not separation, that's state sponsored atheism
