You'll feel soooo primal when you're at the doctor's office, trying to explain how you got hookworm, strongyloides, Lyme disease, and chiggers on a single hike.
You have to shout, "unscheduled off-word activation" before doing this.
Trump has insisted the executive order is aimed at combatting “birth tourism,” immigrants who come to the United States briefly for the purpose of having a child.
This assumes that birth tourism—if it even exists in any non-trivial amount of babies—is a problem. Why would it be a problem? I don't get it.
The administration is always bitching about not enough babies... Make up your damned mind!
...or perhaps be more explicit about your true intentions?
We need a simple regulation that mandates that all data centers must power themselves with renewable energy.
It'll fix sooo many issues. Not the water thing but that's a region-specific problem. Not everywhere has water shortages and not all data center designs use shittons of water (even AI data centers).
They shouldn't segregate straights and gays like this.
They're not illegally harvesting anything. Copyright law is all about distribution. As much as everyone loves to think that when you copy something without permission you're breaking the law the truth is that you're not. It's only when you distribute said copy that you're breaking the law (aka violating copyright).
All those old school notices (e.g. "FBI Warning") are 100% bullshit. Same for the warning the NFL spits out before games. You absolutely can record it! You just can't share it (or show it to more than a handful of people but that's a different set of laws regarding broadcasting).
I download AI (image generation) models all the time. They range in size from 2GB to 12GB. You cannot fit the petabytes of data they used to train the model into that space. No compression algorithm is that good.
The same is true for LLM, RVC (audio models) and similar models/checkpoints. I mean, think about it: If AI is illegally distributing millions of copyrighted works to end users they'd have to be including it all in those files somehow.
Instead of thinking of an AI model like a collection of copyrighted works think of it more like a rough sketch of a mashup of copyrighted works. Like if you asked a person to make a Godzilla-themed My Little Pony and what you got was that person's interpretation of what Godzilla combined with MLP would look like. Every artist would draw it differently. Every author would describe it differently. Every voice actor would voice it differently.
Those differences are the equivalent of the random seed provided to AI models. If you throw something at a random number generator enough times you could--in theory--get the works of Shakespeare. Especially if you ask it to write something just like Shakespeare. However, that doesn't meant the AI model literally copied his works. It's just doing it's best guess (it's literally guessing! That's how work!).
Oh I can explain this: You were born with a destiny that doesn't make sense anymore because the gods had to make some changes to the timeline. Sounds simple enough but some people have actually been given theirs or someone else's prophecy so now they have to make it happen... Somehow.
To resolve this situation they often have to come up with clever solutions to make sure the prophecy still happens in a way that the (new) timeline can handle. Such as "experiencing plague" and "getting caught rolling with a naked woman in public".
Why would a Linux user fool around with Davinci Resolve--proprietary software that's not even anything special? They'd just use Kdenlive, OpenShot, Blender, Shotcut, or any number of other FOSS NLEs that are all fully capable and feature-rich.
Not only that but Kdenlive has it's own well-supported PPA and .AppImage. It'll run on basically anything without much fuss.
The girl, upset that her mallard husband has turned her into a human during the golden shower festival has acquired a fowl mood.
"Urine trouble!"
A quiet desk with your dog next to you or... soul-crushing commute and a noisy office?
Gee, I wonder why people are generally more productive at home?

Valve quietly updates technical details that don't matter because no one can buy their device!
Come on, Valve! Do you want my money or not?
Uuugh!
