  • I dont see any harm in including support for running models built into the distro and then providing easy access to a pre-selected list of models to use with that if the user wants.

  • Yup, you can download as many youtube videos, news articles and images as you like!

  • Does Christmas mean anything to you?

  • Its so American to make your own-brand Christmas a month early then call Christmas food a knock off of that!

  • I switched back to Windows (and my experience going back after a few months of Linux)

  • No you completely miss read their post, they were saying that yours was legit but you shouldnt copy past random scripts with no context: this is a reputable place to see it.

  • Youtube adds setting for uploaders to allow third party AI training on videos

  • Gosh you've certainly got them there, no way they could spot that and its bound to ruin their whole model with that 0.00001% of input it represents.

  • Mastodon Now Sends Referer Headers! Hurrah!

  • I know malls track peoples movements throught them and thats creepy as fuck too, though I dont think they tie IDs to individuals, just monitors where people move throughout them.

    The rest of your post makes no sense, yes obviously peole can tell the diference between commuters wanting coffee and people on a night out getting drunk. But that is very different to having a label on everyone saying "came from my mistresses house" or "came from my weed dealer" on each person, which is more akin to the level of detail given by referal links.

  • FWIW doctor comes from the latin for "I teach" and has been used by acedemics since the 12th centrury. Its usage meaning physician is a lot more recent.

  • There’s legitimate interest in knowing where people come from, though, and asking on your own page “how did you get here?” is hardly going to work

    I fundamentally disagree, if shops started scanning people's phones as they walked in to find where they had been last before they entered their shop people would be outraged, but somehow this has become accepted practice on the web.

  • Don't reply "just Google it"

  • Sure thats correct, but I'm a little uneasy with the idea of "burn down a useful resource for people becuase fewer people helped people results in slower increases of data to Reddit"

  • Don't reply "just Google it"

  • Reddit lost nothing when you deleted your comments, they still exist on their servers and are likely being used to train LLMs now. All that was lost was other peoples ability to readt them

  • ChatGPT is down

  • Ironincally using older AI instead of current.

  • Microsoft allows Windows 11 to be installed on older, unsupported hardware but specifically nixes official support — minimum requirements for full compatibility remain unchanged

  • Looks like they're getting a bit nervy that this forced obsolescence might actually push some people away from windows

  • Google steps in after McDonald's gets ‘review bombed’ over arrest in UnitedHealth CEO's murder

  • That's a reasonable stance to take when said company is just one competing in a marketplace. But when they are a monopoly operating a quasi-utility that should be public its not good enough.

  • Ok I'm done here if you're just going to start making shit up. No they did not announce that they would record peoples screenshots without their permission and start uploading them to their servers.

  • I think you are fundamentally misunderstanding what I am saying. I'm not saying they "wouldn't do this, they're not that bad" I'm saying "they wouldn't do this as it would get them little, they'd get caught and it would have bad blowback for them".

    They're also not stealing peoples bank accounts or blackmailing people with personal information. Again, just because they are shitbags does not mean every bad thing you can come up with no evidence is true.

  • No I don't need to "pick a lane", just because Microsoft are awful does not mean any claim about them doing a bad thing is sensible no matter how far fetched. Microsoft do care about how windows is perceived by businesses (as opposed to you and I think about them, which they do not care about), and the risk of doing what you are alleging is very high for them (easy to detect) and would have severe negative consequences for them (oops, cant use windows in healthcare as its leaking PII). To add to this the only evidence you are presenting for it is "windows is slow".
