I live in Finland. My favorite place to get sportswear and just daily wear is H&M. No logos. My favorite design house is Makia. Really amazing stuff. https://makia.com/ but if it has a big-assed Makia logo I don't

I would understand if the choice were good quality with logo versus questionable crapshoot with no logo. That's not usually the option, though. Perhaps you can't just look at clothing and see whether it is quality or not? Look at

People misleadingly conflate these two concepts all the time, but no, human learning and machine learning are not equivalent. If you want to learn to draw in the style of Moebius then go for it. If you want to train an AI on Moebius' w

This is good, and this is inevitable. Creators have control of their copyright, which should include permissions to be used in AI training.

I flat out do not watch ads. If a platform has ads, I do not watch it full stop. I pay YouTube for no ads. If I lost that option, I would not watch YouTube. Same with all of the other streaming services. Netflix pushed it last year with pre

Let us take as granted it that "the number of violent conflicts is the highest since World War Two". Let us assume that this is accurate. Nevertheless, these statistics are globally better than any previous century: rate of people
