I wouldn't consider an SVG vector image with only a handful of vertices "artwork". My personal view is there is a minimum bar of effort and uniqueness before I actually consider it art and worthy of protection. I realize that

Actually AI would have probably gotten it right. The more likely explanation is that the person manually googled all the landmarks of Sydney to get some vector images to cut and paste into a CAD program to extrude, and accidentally got the

I just solved the problem by shoving 192GB of RAM into my desktop and 96GB into my laptop and called it a day. Of course I did this when RAM was cheap but one of the best decisions I have ever made in life.

The bigger factor in the American system is taxes. If everyone in the healthcare industry stack, from suppliers to nurses, is exempt from federal and state taxes, healthcare costs could come down by 70%+.

I would think that rooting is not counterproductive. In fact my personal security model requires root access. 1. I need to be able to monitor what's inside the memory and communications of every process running if I want to 2. I need

Well damn, I would have thought rooting would have been a basic feature of GrapheneOS. At least it's open source, so maybe one can add root access and screenshot blocking to it.

by qurren 2mo ago
I also despise this "screenshot blocking" stuff. A device listens is supposed to me, not to the apps. I want a screenshot to be a copy of the raw pixels, and an app should not know about it or have a right to know about it. Of cou
