Why no straight-on picture of the top?

Also, I’ve found [some archeologist’s best guess at] the rules, but now I need an .stl file.

“Violat[ing] DRM policies” isn’t “misuse.” DRM itself is misuse of the machine owner’s property.

Anyway, you might have already foreclosed the possibility by talking about it on this Lemmy account if it can be traced back to you, but my suggestion would’ve been to release it as open source anonymously.

It’s more insidious than that: by adding it to all even when they don’t use AI, they give cover to people who are vibe-coding. “Nah man, I totally wrote it myself. VS Code just puts that message on everything.”

All leveraged buyouts ought to be illegal, not just this one.

I knew about the game but not the thought experiment that inspired it.

Does at least once per flight really count as “infrequent?”

I replace my 911 rotors and pads once every 6 years?

Tell me you’re wasting your 911 without telling me you’re wasting your 911.

The only single-point-of-failure is the brake pedal.

And even then, only on cars with those stupid electronic parking brakes instead of a proper mechanical emergency brake.

If you want a nice new electric vehicle, (any vehicle really) in the US today you’re going to have to buy a spy mobile. No way around it.

Nobody has to drive a “nice new vehicle.” If your job is advocating for privacy, you should set a good example by driving an old car. (Or moonlight as an urbanist and ditch the car entirely, for that matter.)

Indefinitely.

They need to be on Mastodon specifically.

However, my concern with kids is that they will desperately want to use the platforms that their friends are on and they will hold it against the parents (and alternative platforms) if they are forced to make do without the big tech ones.

This is literally my greatest worry as a parent.

That doesn’t make UBI a bad idea. It makes allowing the ownership class to continue to exist a bad idea.

…you say about a comic in which the human character has a hoodie and a cellphone.

The sad thing is that Sony is multinational, and they weren’t prosecuted in Japan or anywhere else, either.

Their audience is the kind of person who still buys paper magazines, so…

Do you mean that time they installed a rootkit on people’s PCs when they went to play (what was supposed to be) a music CD, or the time they retroactively and remotely sabotaged Linux on people’s Playstations?

Just wondering which massive felony that should’ve landed the entire C-suite in prison you’re referring to, since there was more than one.

I’m wearing a WarGames shirt today.

Index funds are also still vulnerable to risks that affect the economy as a whole, like – just off the top of my head, for no reason in particular – total collapse caused by mismanagement by fascists.

On a totally unrelated note, my portfolio has always been mostly index funds and still is, but I’ve decreased the percentage of US stock market in favor of international stocks in recent years.
