It’s silly that they don’t just operate from the browser. It’s how I use Patreon on my (admittedly not iPhone) Phone.
They should have just pulled Patreon from the app store.
It’s not like it’s such an impediment to ask users to use their browser.
In an ideal world we would not have monopolies controlling app stores, but I think Patreon is really stupid for not just abandoning the app store.
You can bet this training data was scraped from depraved recesses of the internet.
The fact that OpenAI allowed this training data to be used*, as well as the fact that the guard-rails they put in place were inadequate, makes them liable in my opinion.
*Obviously needs to be proven, in court, by subpoena.
Because this is Lemmy, I thought when they said they didn’t like liberals it’s because they were coming from the left, and didn’t like liberals for pretending capitalism could be reformed.
But I will join the US right wing liberals in celebrating this fuckwit realising who they were supporting. Finally (sort of).
My US friends. As a citizen of a US vassal state, please, I beg you, rise up more than the tiny amount you have.
I don’t want to fight in your next war, pretty please.
You can bet your ass foreign spy agencies are laughing their arses off about this as they track whatever targets they like
What’s worse, is this was the plan all along
I didn’t choose it (not my video).
I’d encourage you to watch it anyway, if you can get past the trauma…
No, it’s not my video, and it’s not like I chose the thumbnail.
I’ll just say folks, this has left me with a “people just like to complain” vibes.
The video is excellent, and exposing how the internet is the wild west of companies lying, cheating and stealing.
Maybe you could engage with that, rather than the creator having to make a stupid thumbnail to keep the algorithm happy.
Literally any device plugged into a dumb screen is better than a smart TV.
The hardware on a smart TV is typically absolute trash. It’s why they’re so slow.
Edit: This includes laptops, which is what I’d use, why do people even consider extra devices?
It’s almost like the “meritocracy” under capitalism is a bald faced lie.
Personally I’d make an exception to my moral stance that work as punishment is slavery, and would prefer to keep him around forcing him to work 70 hours a week, in addition to doing all the other chores required so that he can live - in prison - for the rest of his life.
Maybe we’ll make it 84 hours a week just for good measure, can’t be giving him a day off.
Seems more poetic
In fairness. First past the post necessarily leads to a two party state.
I’m sorry, but the only option is to single-mindedly campaign for pretentitial voting.
Voting for another party that protects his views is cute, but totally incompatible with the voting system in place in the US.
*Disclaimer that I feel entitled to comment on US politics as a citizen of the provinces (Australia)
I completely agree, well put
Real homies remember that game they had on the palm pilot to learn the handwriting shorthand haha
Seems I’m a bit younger than you, but for some reason this is in my core memories folder.
Does it really cost what Kagi is charging? I would love to see some research on this if people happen to know where to find such articles.
Like, in theory to pay for Kagi or a similar service but it’s just extrotionately expensive.
I pay for other service which are offered for free (like email hosting), but those are reasonably priced.
I know a lot of normies have iPhones because it’s a phone and they see it as a good phone. Fair enough (shitty monopolistic behaviour and Americans’ - yes, this is not a thing in my country - weird ostracisation of green text bubbles notwithstanding)
But Apple is also the brand that made phones a “status symbol”.
I can very easily believe this.
There will be an upsetting number of people that buy this glorified, and much less useful, shoulder bag.
I’m not from the US, but it would seem to me that public cameras should only be accessible for legitimate purposes.
Police should need to request footage, but similarly, you shouldn’t be able to just request any footage willy nilly, because of stalking.
Seems that it should be tightly regulated and require multiple people to gain access, and be documented who was given access.
Overall your comment seems like a great suggestion to me. If footage “goes missing”, they had better have way more evidence to back up their charges.
Are their no small claims tribunals in the US? This refund would be over so quickly in Australia and no doubt the ACCC would be on their arse.
We barely do anything about monopolies here these these days, but at least false advertising and right to refunds are rock solid.
Also, those seat selection fees are crazy. International flights I’ve seen like $8, maybe $15 if you’re getting really crazy.
Who in the world is paying $100 to select their seat?
Not from the US, nor a lawyer, but how is this not fraud?
If someone pretends to be you, without your consent, is that not fraud?
You can ask me to change my out of office email and threaten me with being fired if I don’t, but if you just do it anyway, how is that not fraud?
Calling critics of a state and a polity racists is some high level bullshit
Did you criticise the Nazis? Pretty sure that means you hate all modern day Germans /s
Apparently not liking capitalism lumps you in with the tankies.
Do you even know what tankie means?
