Yes, provided you can separate the two (e.g. a book and illustrations in one case). AFAIK the courts have still not ruled on what happens when AI and human contributions cannot be separated etc. It varies a lot in other countries, but in mo

It looks like its blocked by Cloudflare Radar. I do not think the NCSC blocks sites. I have never come across a site block ordered by them. Most blocks I see are by sites themselves blocking Uk visitors for GDPR or OSA reasons.

As happened to ICC judges and prosecutors.

The British usage predates the RFC and probably the cryptographic use. I definitely heard the term in the late 80s.

Trump can close down a lot of the British NHS by telling AWS to stop supplying it. Everyone apart from a few countries (China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, etc.) is dependent on the US.

I agree, but some people seem to think it is, which i think what the article is a response to: just just in the comment, but in the wider push to use certain language.

The EU and most of the rest of the world. The UK is talking about sovereign AI but doing much the same with pushing reliance on Apple and Google.

None of those companies have the market power Google does.

The article strongly implies it is a response to a comment complaining the blog is not inclusive because it uses British English. There is a constant American assumption that their language and culture is the norm and we should all adjust o

The difference is that in the US there is plenty of criticism or, and open opposition to, the leader, or to any leader. You have courts that will restrain the government (as with the recent ruling on birthright citizenship). I suspect Trump

Run your own server. Very easy with something like Mailinabox. You might need to find a relay for outgoing mail.

Most places are going the other way. The UK uses ID verification for company directors that gave me an alternative between driving half an hour each way (plus parking and queueing) or using a mobile app. There is a web version but apparentl

I think he is extrapolating from his daughter being like his wife and his son being like him to thinking that is a general rule. I also find the idea of kids being "people who were basically me" worrying: I associate it with contr

I think the repeated failure of centrally planned economies proves it generally does more harm than good, and IMO complexity makes central planning less workable not more. The problem the EU has are when decisions are centralised (its an EU

Does it? There are plenty of disastrous decisions in the last 70 years at the level of major policies. There are plenty of failed projects. The west in general used to be a lot more efficient. IMO the main cause is exactly the problem the S

Me too. They have huge advantages but you need to spend what Ofcom calls a negligible amount (not more than a few thousand) to set up and ideally set up a company to limit liability.

Who thought evolutionary theory would end religion? Sounds like wishful thinking from people who were hoping for an end to religion. Mainstream Christianity was not biblical literalist anyway. Read what Augustine or Origen had to say about

Which is the outrageous claim? We normally require new medical treatments to be proved safe, rather than assume they are safe until proved dangerous.

I have only ever had one sleep over multiple Linux laptops over nearly 20 years, my own and other people's, including some tricky hardware (an MS surface). I only ever use sleep/suspend to RAM though. I avoid Nvidia though.

How much power is consumed when suspended?

by graemep 4mo ago
Linux users do not clean up AFAIK, and the article is by a Mac user who does clean up. Why would Linux and Windows users not use sleep? AFAIK everyone does.

Most of the Americas for just that reason - and because the countries immigrants came from did not want their kids to have citizen ship and the right to come back.

As far as I can see it is almost entirely countries in the Americas plus Pakistan that have real birthright citizenship. Everywhere else has some restriction such as stateless parents, or multiple generations born in the country, or a minim

Significantly warmer in mediaeval times, not slightly. At least some of those glaciers were not there during the Roman warm period,right? Speed of warming is not relevant to a claim about conditions now. I do not know where you are either b

Europe used to be hot during the medieval warm period. The biggest climate change risk to Europe is actually that it will get colder if Atlantic currents change. Some 1980s models predicted the UK would have been badly affected by now with
