  • AI Company Clones Musician’s Voice, Then Copyright-Strikes Her Own Songs

  • On what grounds? Google's terms of service say they can take down anything they want for any reason. If someone starts a copyright case you can go go court, but all this is carefully/legally designed such that there is no downsides to "mistakes"

  • Copyright claims are under penalty of perjury - you can go to prison for making them in bad faith.

    What Patamount/CBS/etc are doing is not a copyright claim, it is a backdoor google has given them - but not you - that lets them bypass the legal process and get things taken down - but if they are wrong there is no legal issue for them. From the outside it looks exactly like a copyright claim, and in spirit it is - by legally it is not a copyright claim in important ways.

  • Used EV sales spike alongside gas prices

  • No he isn't. He is putting a few brakes on in places but there are too many ecconomic tail winds and so green energy is being added despite his efforts. There are only a few places his position even has power, most green energy is a state permit only.

  • Internet shutdown in Iran is now the longest in world history

  • saddly nobody has found a better option. Iran has had particularly evil leaders for decades. (Why is interesting history itself - but not relavant to today)

  • Used EV sales spike alongside gas prices

    Jump

  • Maybe. The average driver is spending just under $200 per month now on gas (14000 miles per year at 20mpg, gas $3/gallon - you can adjust numbers as you want, these are reasonable but some cars better fuel ecconomy) if you drive more than average it is possible to make payments on fuel savings in some cases.

    or in my case the old car was going to be replaced anyway. Paymets were a given, so saving over $100 a month in fuel was a nice bonus. There are a lot of people who are buying something different anyway who care about their budget.

  • Iran's government has done plenty to deserve those sanctions. War is wrong no matter which side does it, and Iran is very guilty.

  • Have you ever witnessed OR heard of people irl have parents actually doing matchmaking? (Or like some weird "friends of friends" network?)

  • True love as you defined it is not what true love as the movies show it looks like.

  • You are not rejected, it is your parents. which makes is safer in some ways.

  • It is culture. In most english native ares (this exclues India where english is a common second language) it is unheard of and people would rebel.

    'True love' as in the movies only lasts a couple years. It is fun to be in but eventually you realize some truths about the other. From there is it can you live with it or not - which is why divorce is so high from those looking for it. True love as some couples who have been together for decads exists - but it is very different from the movies even if they sometimes seem to have a few features in common.

    Arranged marriage and figure it out on your own exists in different parts. both are about equally successful for any long term definition of success. Shy people prefer arranged because they don't have to risk rejection. Others like freedom to decide.

    meeting others happens as part of life. The only hard part is you think maybe this can be more and the other not only disagrees but also refuses to be a friend anymore. It can be really hard - but eventually it can happens (and may or may not last)

  • It is easy to bypass that filtering. Even on locked down devices. Every site that the filter misses spreads like wildfire at school (until they block that one).

    I fully agree with the rest. They are using parents' cancerns to force bad ieeas.

  • Only if every parent is willing to be a "helicopter" parent who won't let their kids out of their sight ever. If you want to give your kids some independence but you don't want them to be able to run completely out of control you society to have guard rails so kids can do things out of your sight without getting into too big of trouble.

  • The whole point is to 'protect' people for things they shouldn't do but are legal for others. Porn is the common example where many (but not all) object and want to keep thair kids away. which is why an id is needed - otherwise any kid will give a false age.

  • Plans to remove ipv4 from the linux kernel.

    Jump

  • The kernel doesn't deal with DNS, that is a separate process/library

  • The only ID verification that works is when a legal entity that has liability for misuse verifies IDs. I want to live in a world where kids install linux on a pi and thus have root to set whatever settings they want. IF you need to verify ID for some reason, then you need to verify with something that the kids don't control - that everyone else can trust (good luck)

  • Battery costs have declined by 99% in the last three decades, making electrified transport a reality

    Jump

  • The US manufactures more than ever. There are a lot less people in manufacturing than 70 years ago, but we make just as much. I know of one factory that went from 2000 employees in 1950 to 200 today - they make more product than in 1950 despite that. Automation has made a big change in the US.

  • Batteries are better, but not by that much, assuming you stick with the same technology - don't compare alkaline to lithium or something. Efficiency of electronics is much better. The improvement in flashlights is about LEDs

  • AI overly affirms users asking for personal advice— Not only are AIs far more agreeable than humans when advising on interpersonal matters, but users also prefer the sycophantic models.

  • Really frsterating when I have an idea that seems good and ai says it is good - but in real world testing we discover it doesn't work and can't be made to work. I want someone to push back when I'm wrong - 'yes men' are not helpful
