They stated they didn’t break piracy laws because they downloaded a shitload of books for their LLM and didn’t seed any.

Torrents are downloaded by “leeches” and put out for download by “seeders”

A proper ratio of what you downloaded to what you allow others to download should be 1:1 if you’re not a dick. (1gb downloaded means you need to upload 1gb to other users for 1:1) but if you don’t seed at ALL or if you only seed bare minimum to keep downloading things, you’re called a Leech, and derogatorily. Because you didn’t seed.

So they’re stating “we didn’t break the law, we’re just leeches!”

Okay so I stopped reading at “unmanned ground vehicles” because I’m an RC nerd and wanted to see the cool robot.

Took me a second to realize those aren’t normal wheels.

My mother always said RC cars can be dangerous…

Russian bot is bad at not looking like a bot.

Copied and pasted the same paragraph and everything.

“could be ousted”

Uhhhhhh no.

Nobody in their right mind would listen to this.

The Russian Puppet never intended to allow support to continue and is making shit up to try and justify halting aid without serious backlash.

Musketrump and the MAGAts can get fucked. Unless they’re willing to go to war to enforce it, there’s 0 chance of it happening. And if they go to war for that, they’re going to have a hell of a lot of internal conflict that will absolutely result in blood. Militarily and civilian.

The fact that anyone can see this and think “yes, this is a clear sign we must invest MORE in oil consumption” is wild to me.

If ONE country is shelling out as much for renewable as the rest of the world spends on fossil fuels, then MAYBE, just MAYBE there might be something to renewables, especially given all the things we see daily about how much more efficient renewables are, how much money is in the entire industry, how quickly people are switching to renewables…

It’s mind boggling that anyone thinks fossil fuels are the future, or at least can convince other people that it’s the future all while caring about just the money.

I’d love to have a power wall and a wind/solar setup for all my energy needs.

Projection and insecurity often make people lash out.

The problem is not the price.

The problem is Ai “art” is inherently stealing the work of other people, and not in a way that a painter can say they were influenced by some other painter.

I mean, even if that is the case, so what?

Are other countries not allowed to have militaries anymore?

Space should not be militarized, in my opinion, but if the US is going to do it, then we don’t get to finger wag at other countries for doing the same thing.

Old people and overreacting to normal things because new ideas are scary and confusing

Name a more iconic duo

If every soldier turned toward Moscow right now, they’d have the higher ups scrambling to throw each other out windows, starting at the top, before they get to the city limits.

Her logic IS undeniable.

You heard it here folks, you shouldn’t question something unless you are directly affected by it.

I haven’t logged into Facebook in over a decade, can’t even remember the login email. Can’t be arsed to jump through hoops to ask for it to be deleted.

Can’t imagine why anyone would willingly make a fb page today.

"They came first for the distros. But I didn’t speak up, because it was only Facebook and only Linux. "

Every single part of this comment just screams “It just wouldn’t be proper!”

And I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to care about what’s “proper” when half my friends now have reasonable fear for their lives, not just “comfort of living” just because they are lgbtq+ living in deep red country.

The only celebrating I do is eating slightly more unhealthy, take the day off work unless it’s going to be a short day, and maybe look to see if any games in my “maybe if it’s on steep sale” list are on sale.

That’s it.

I don’t remind people, I dont expect anyone to remember, but it’s nice when they do.

My excuse for missing people’s birthdays is I DO know the date… I just don’t know what the date today is. Sure I know my sister was born on the 12th, but that doesn’t matter if I think today is the 10th and it’s actually the 15th…

So if I have that much problem, it wouldn’t be very chill to be upset with others for missing mine.

It’s a piece of media that’s critical of a fascist regime, and the person who says it’s fake is a .ml

if they ever answer, it’ll be dismissive about how all western media is biased against china/nk/Russia. That’s as close to an explanation of “why it’s fake” as you’ll get.

You should always be critical of any media that doesn’t have a concrete source though. I don’t personally know anything about radiofreeasia, so fuck if I know how reliable they are to begin with.

I say this in nearly complete seriousness:

Always has been

Not even a little. I went out in shorts and a t-shirt for about an hour, exchanged banal pleasantries with family until my anxiety got the better of me and I had to leave, sat in a room with no windows watching old shows and snacking, and am waiting until exhaustion allows me to sleep a couple hours until I go to work on one of the two days remaining on my schedule. After that I might not have any work for months unless I can find something close by that doesn’t make me legitimately contemplate things. I have a broken tooth, some kind of respiratory thing going on, and an unmentionable medical issue that really needs to be seen by a doctor but I can’t afford one and my government insurance was denied because I made a couple thousand more this year than last year.

On the bright side, my truck is finally working again and assuming the now-slowly-leaking-while-on fuel pump doesn’t catch a spark before I can afford to have it replaced I don’t have to share a car this week. Which is nice.

Don’t care how they got it.

Unethically, probably illegally.
