And that's where the complexity arises in this argument that I don't know how to resolve. In the case of this woman vs Meta, to me it doesn't "feel" legal that one disparaging comment costs $50K. It feels that there

There's a basic list on that page. There are many LLMs out there that you can discuss this with if you want to waste your own time. I'm not going to waste any more time with this thread. You have an attitude that says "Debate

I would argue yes. If you have the choice to sell to sell it, you can be forced to sell it. One can still give up their basic rights if they so choose. The woman in question can cease from disparaging Meta for the rest of her life. A person

I understand freedom of speech and I understand she's free to speak but there may be consequences. I understand that there are huge complexities in the legal system. I understand you can enter into agreements (part of your speech) that

I'd just love some zoning changes that would allow light commercial in the middle of some neighborhoods so I don't have to drive miles to get a cup of coffee. Could be as simple as adding more pathways between neighborhoods so I d

The 4-minute-mile is an average of 15mph. I haven't measured how fast I can sprint, but at my age (40s), I doubt its higher than 15mph for any timespan longer than a few seconds. So milers effectively sprint for 4 minutes straight. Its

I’m curious how often the strings are not in agreement. Is this a very rare occurrence or does it happen often?

I've said this before and I'll say it again but one of the best things the auto industry did for itself was to tie a person's identity to the type of automobile they drive. In today's society, you can completely disregar

I Googled XPS 13 and go to configure it but can’t find an option to choose Ubuntu, only downgrade to Windows 11 Home. It is weird.

Yeah this feels like a bad idea. People usually associate a police state with the police vs the people but when the people are the police, you start to distrust everyone.

Right. It appeared that the response to the first image and question would have been the same if the image wasn't provided. I wasn't impressed with the demo but we'll see what real world results get.
