That’s not how AI works.
How does it work ?
How is access limited and at the same time you are bullying everyday Joes who are actually using it?
Paywalls limit access, cost of hardware to run locally limits access.
Can some people access it, yes, is access limited, also yes.
Delete all software and turn off your computer or be a hypocrite.
Strawman? maybe?, it's unclear how it's related and as a singular statement is mostly nonsensical.
The stuff they use for training is free for any artist to train on.
It absolutely is not, there are several ongoing lawsuits and repeated strikes about this exact thing.
You don’t own the definition of art and nobody you will encounter in a post of any sort is even doing it for major profit.
This i agree with.
You don’t own the definition of art.
I agree with this also.
AI is for everyone, but is made for the rich to get richer, like literally everything else you see or do online.
AI is for profit, not for everyone.
The major difference here is the scale but you'll have to look in to that yourself.

the majority of the population doesn’t identify this as being nazism.
That's a big claim for no citation.

Taxonomy.
- A cat is [animal]
- A dog is an [animal]
The nazi's did such a good job of distinguishing themselves they created their own (colloquial) taxonomic branch.
So [nazi] could be considered a parent grouping of the National Socialist German Workers' Party and also potentially a parent grouping for the republicans.
I think they key here is separating the nazi party from the [nazi] category
As you pointed out all [nazi]'s are [fascist]'s but not all [fascist]'s are [nazi]'s
- National Socialist German Workers' Party were [nazi]'s
- The American Republican Party are subjectively showing enough similarities (both in type and progression) that they get the provisional label of [nazi] as it's the closest existing definition.
Might turn out that they don't quite fall in the same branch, might turn out they do. Until then [nazi] is an easy shortcut for describing the types of behaviour displayed.
Even if they were just a direct descendent ( taxonomically ) rather than a sibling of the original nazi party there would still be an argument to claim they were nazi's
Like :
- animal -> mammal -> cat
- nazi -> nazi party -> republican
Come back in a few years and you'll probably get your definitive answer either way.
You don't have to agree with any of that of course, but it does demonstrate how someone might have an opposing opinion to your own.

Well, at least they aren't pretending to accept longer passwords but actually truncating it, like they used to in hotmail and live.
They were silently truncating the passwords to something like the first 16 characters, the rest was ignored.
Apologies, i cannot divulge that information as per the NDA i signed at the time.

Hah, 3 whole comments, all of them nuts.
Another bot for the blocklist.
It's similar in that you presented a position that was not backed up by a reasonable interpretation of the data you also provided.
What you did was different, in that is was a brief misunderstanding of the wording rather than a fundamental misunderstanding of causation and correlation.
it didn't seem defensive as much as dismissive.
Honestly i could have just been reading tone in your response that wasn't there, i get that wrong more often than i would like, if so i apologise.
The gist you actually provided was "you are doing a bad thing and I'm disappointed in you, smh" and then proceeded to do something very similar followed by a non-apology.
I actually agree with your point but it's still a shitty way to do it.
So a deflection and a personal attack rather than an actual answer, that explains a lot.
I'll just assume yes and save us both some back and forth.
No need for a follow up non-reply , i won't see it.
...... just to be clear, you think "South East Asia" refers to it's location relative to europe and not it's relative location to the rough centre of Asia ?
So, south america is called that because it's .... south of europe ?
Not sure how versed/willing you are to selfhost but I've heard good things about tube archivist.
There are also a bunch of ui's for yt-dlp, though i can't vouch for quality.
It's somewhat of a catch, that's generally how monopolistic moats work but you really shouldn't be relying on google as a backup service for obscure videos you wish to keep.
I've no idea of the amount of lectures, guides, documentaries and other non-entertainment media that is available exclusively on youtube, but again it isn't an archiving service.
They can, will and have deleted whole channels for various reasons, most of which were bullshit, if you find something you absolutely have to keep, download it.
That being said, the process of downloading, archiving and curating content on anything more than a trivial scale can be much more involved than it seems, especially if you want backups/redundancy.
I've never been a big youtube user so my opinion on this is coloured by the fact that i don't have that much invested in the platform.
Literally any other form of entertainment.
Though the statement was to stop using it, not replace it.
Uhg, the self-serving know it all liberal who answers their own questions and thinks they’re 100% correct is a big part of the unpopularity of Democrats and a huge enabling factor for Trump.
Self-serving applies to almost everyone, especially in politics, that's not a "left" specific trait.
Answering your own questions is annoying in a scenario where the side being asked the question will respond with an actual and coherent answer.
I'm not cherry-picking here, spin up almost any "debate" you'd consider "left vs right" (in the US at least) and consider how much of that is being done in good faith.
They both agreed that Mexican migration is the largest population migrating… But that point wasn’t acknowledged by the liberal, because they had something else to say…
According to your own edit 55% of illegal immigration is from Mexico, so that means 45% of immigration is not from mexico, perhaps the point being made is that if you look in to the percentage of raids per community it's probably not 55% mexican.
That doesn't refute or ignore the mexican percentage being what it is, it points out the apparent disparity in enforcement, which is probably the point.
…yep, and the liberal media thinks this comic is a great point in favour of their righteousness - when it’s EXACTLY why they lost, and why Republicans become more extreme. They just get so sick of the smug badgering that they just want to troll and annoy the left, to the point they’ll vote for Trump and his loose knit-wit antics.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume "they" in "they just get so sick" includes you, i could be wrong however.
Having said that, i don't disagree that not being able to appeal to a larger base was a major contributing factor in why they lost, at least in my opinion.
They lacked a coherent strategy and relied far too much on people understanding that the other side were grifters, a plan which ultimately worked so poorly that you now get elon musk as de-facto president.
But i will also acknowledge the difficulty in appealing to a base of people who include literal neo nazi's, standard bigots, people willing to join an insurrection and pretty much anyone who wholeheartedly subscribes to the current republican regime.
There are people in the middle ground, the (largely white) people systematically left behind by the system over many years.
Unfortunately such people are easy pickings for a groups of grifters with appealing soundbites and a proven track record of either not following through at all, or following through to the detriment of the people they are supposed to be serving.
The systems in place aren't designed to help these people, they are designed to give them just enough hope to keep them working.
Running on a platform of nice sounding lies is easier when you don't actually have to follow through.
If you have to become the party of nice sounding lies to appeal to enough of the voter base to gain power, is that a victory ?
No wonder Trump’s popularity with minorities increased. Maybe listen to the working class masses for a change, and accept they don’t pay attention to the same barage of identity politics the ivory tower does. Nor do they have the same class interests as that liberal elite.
Agreed, though they do in fact have shared interests it's just not apparent from the messaging.
[EDIT: Mexico makes up 55% of illegal migration. European countries aren’t even in the top 10 list of countries of origin. America is a downgrade for most Europeans, that lady’s smugness is unearned because if we’re going by the stats, India and Asia are the next largest problem areas.]
See the first point above.
You've pointed out why the statements made by the lady are correct in both a technical and literal perspective.
If you are seeing smugness here, that's indicative of who you are, for better or worse.
It is, as well as being 3/4 of the provided usages and a large proportion of the examples.

‘It’s Total Chaos Internally at Meta Right Now’: Employees Protest Zuckerberg’s Anti LGBTQ Changes
2/2
I agree completely, which is why I say it’s not the right word. I am totally against people saying homosexuality is a mental illness because it implies it’s something that needs to be corrected. I do see it as something that deviates from the norm, but in a way as harmless and inconsequential as left-handedness.
And i don't disagree (aside from the discussion on "norm" as stated above).
I thought I had done a good enough job of establishing upfront what I meant when I said that I was pro LGBT and was coming at this from a point of trying to understand, but I the backlash clearly shows that was not enough.
That's not necessarily true, people are going to disagree and misunderstand especially on a subject such as this, all you can do is engage in good faith and work with the results of that.
If you want to refine your explanations, that's fine also, but you aren't going to get 100% success rates, especially on the internet.
I find it frustrating having to tiptoe around topics like this and always try to explain myself because people are so quick to look for the bad, but I suppose that is the current world we live in.
All we can do is our best, if that's not enough for some people, so be it.
This kind of communication is a skill, it'll get more refined over time.
It’s a sad fact that there are a lot of people trying to opress anyone who is different, and I can’t exect strangers on the internet to know me or what I believe in.
True, so manage your expectations accordingly.
If you go in to it with an understanding of the potential outcomes you won't be blindsided.
I’ve done a lot of explaining myself, but I’m still not conviced my original assumption is incorrect. I still think that homosexuality has a biological/mental aspect because gay people say that they were born that way, it’s not a choice, it’s who they are. I didn’t choose to be straight so that makes perfect sense to me. I also know that the people who feel that way are in a minority, therefore something is happening mentally, biologically, I don’t know, to a small subset of people making them an abnormality.
The conversation about a potential biological/genetic component to homosexuality is incredibly charged for various reasons but mainly because of the consequences of either outcome.
If it turns out there is a genetic component then think of all the things the fundamentalist nutjobs would want to do with that information.
And given that fundamentalist nutjobs aren't know for their clear headed and rational thinking they wouldn't understand (or would wilfully ignore) that you probably can't just point to a "gay gene" as a means of identification so not only would they being doing stupid shit, they'd be doing stupid shit that doesn't make any sense.
What I HAVE learned is I need to be more cautious of using the word abnormal which goes full circle to my question on if this is an issue of language. Most people really don’t like words that black and white say they’re different, because while it may be true, it can be used by people who do not feel like deviations from the norm are acceptable, and they will attack them for being the “other”. This is just a very polarizing topic and can cause people who say they’re on the same side to get at each other assuming the worst, which is unfortunate.
I think it's more complicated than just language, though language is a major component on the internet.
There are sometimes ways to present the same information in a similar way that makes use of linguistic and societal context to convey the meaning of what you were saying while downplaying some of the the negative aspects of how it could be received.
I suspect an issue you might be having is that at a glance they'd probably both look the same to you, so with a choice between four words and two sentences the more concise seems like the better option.
Though i might be projecting.
I don't actually think that's the issue here however, i agree it's just a charged subject and people are people.
