Why do they need half that data for a derivative of a distro? Fuck off. I don’t care if someone collects the model number of my GPU or whatever but that sounds like personally identifiable tracking data, not basic “telemetry” data to set development priorities or whatever.
China should be ashamed. America would never steal rocket technology from fascists.
They couldn’t get Zoltar to de-age him like in Big? Why use A.I. to do something we could already do in 1988 for 25¢?
By the way, I don’t want to discourage anyone from studying International Affairs (or International Relations or International Political Economy or whatever it is at your school). I’m very happy I did. Reading primary sources and writing papers is a good thing. And we have loads of transcripts of actual world leaders making decisions. At my college, we read both the declassified U.S. cabinet and Soviet side’s actual transcripts during the Cuban missile crisis and I wrote papers about avoiding war.
I don’t regret studying it. Sometimes, something happens and I can predict it because I’ve read those primary sources. It’s a valuable skill. Peace is the goal.
And they would have gotten away with it if it weren’t for the 200,000 mice pawing at their hideout door demanding cheese.
You think open source project maintainers should move to different countries because of temporary sanctions? What if they have a wife with a job and kids in school? Or delicate Lego collections that are impossible to pack? Or a side-piece?
Take issue with the sanctions if you want but don’t take issue with people who don’t want to move their family, LEGO collections, and side-pieces.
I studied International Affairs. The professors are like, “Whatever your views, ya gotta hand it to Kissinger.” You do not, under any circumstances, have to hand it to Kissinger.
Maybe someone in the US foreign policy establishment will develop the ability to know right from wrong.
It’s really self-selecting at this point. If you have any sort of soul, you study what they’re doing, get disgusted, and leave. Why would you take part in things like this?
I’d like to think it’s because they’re taking a stand but they have to be even more sick of seeing weird American incels talk about US elections than we are in the U.S. Not to mention vote scolds who assume the entire internet is American.
“I don’t care about the election.”
“Vote! It’s important!”
“Motherfucker, I live in Antwerp! Shut up! Just shut up!”
4 more gigstons of CO2 in the atmosphere linked to more anxiety in people who might actually see 2100.
Was the question, “Do you need those bombs replaced?”
My ancestors came from the sea.
Renminbi would already be a reserve currency if they didn’t have currency controls. The reason the dollar and (to a lesser extent) euro, Swiss franc, etc. serve that role is because no one really has to worry about withdrawing their funds and converting them. China can obviously get there but that sort of trust takes time and probably other reforms in China.
For the record, I’m not talking about politics or who is good or bad here. I’m just talking about the basic reality of business transactions. Being one of the currencies accepted in global contracts requires a lot of trust.
This is obviously one of the more tragic wars in modern history but that is good trolling.
Why is generative AI even needed for audio transcription? We’ve had decent voice recognition tools for years even on cheap consumer grade stuff.
I imagine this is less about making money off developers as it is about making misinformation research cost prohibitive.
That’s why I stopped recruiting North Koreans for my mercenary group. They always want equipment and rations. Like, don’t you have fingernails and teeth? Eat a raccoon and quit asking me for help. Damn. I’m already paying you 500 won a day.
Oh, for fuck’s sake. Can we have a decent password manager that isn’t tied to a browser or company? I pay for Bitwarden. I’m not being cheap. But open source is more secure. We can look at the code ourselves if there’s a concern.
Can you use pyenv for the script?
Maybe Maccabi Tel Aviv shouldn’t be in UEFA. Getting the boot from AFC might not have been fair in the 70’s but if your fans can’t travel to fucking Ajax, just don’t play international football.
