All privacy-conscious services are already based in countries that have privacy-conscious laws. And most privacy-conscious services generally protect you to a certain level by the amount of data they don't keep. Mulvad, for example, wh

Those sites getting blown up was kinda obvious. I would have been shocked if they didn't move everything once Israel sneak attacked them.

There is a reason we call it the central belt for Glasgow and Edinburgh. Everything else is either lowlands or highlands and a bit of a trek.

When people ask me what it's like to live in Scotland, I tell them: The sky is gray, the buildings are gray, the people are gray. But if you go about 10 minutes in any direction you'll come across nature and it's just green.

Pretty much the entire Scotland has the same joke about Aberdeen.

If you want to have the copyright license put into it do a DMCA take down. They're in breach of your copyright license and therefore do not have rights to distribute your copyrighted material.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
And your attitude is why people like that ruin companies. Because you're too busy trying to be 100% right instead of getting the result you want. You're part of the problem too.

They were needed to keep jobs. People need to see that AI won’t replace humans before they’ll believe it. A 48 hour trial is short enough that it’ll create a mess but not long enough that it does actual damage.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
Yes, this is avoiding damage. The mess that is left behind is not damage. It's evidence. It's what would keep people in jobs. People losing their jobs is damage. People having work to do is not.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
The mess is the point. It's to show that it can't be done. The mess is what stops it becoming a full-time thing. The mess shows that humans are needed.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
No, I think it's a trap and that 48 hours of AI only would create a weeks worth of work to clean up.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
Suggest a 48-hour trial, give everyone 2 days off and let AI try and replace everyone. I think this is one of these scenarios where feeling the pain is the only way they'll ever truly understand.

1. Your old credit card solution needs a credit card. So you exclude out the poor, bad credit, etc. 2. Parents will help kids bypass checks like that. 3. It can be bypassed by a half-smart 13-year-old who can access an app on a phone that w

Not really. It was around the same time Napster blew up and became worth tons of money. Realistically, it was probably worth millions at its peak and is probably worth a million or so now. Edit: The company's filing says they have 1.2

These companies that can barely keep the support documentation URLs working nevermind keeping the content of their documentation up to date suddenly care about the info being correct? Have you ever dealt with customer support professionally

I'm confused. What is your point here? It reads like you're trying to contradict me however you appear to be confirming what I said.

100% for first line support is very common. It was common years ago before ChatGPT and ChatGPT made it so much better than before.

by that_guy_iain 1y ago
Is this sarcasm? AI has been getting used to handle support requests for years without human checks. Why would they suddenly start adding human checks when the tech is way better than it was years ago?

People who develop software have to understand the difference between FOSS and Open-Source. We already have a term for what you want to describe as open-source, it's called FOSS. Words have meanings they're collected and recorded

To me, the administration clearly screwed up. They were thinking about implementing something that was done as a prank. They could have just told everyone it was a prank and not to worry but instead, they reacted like the backlash was too b

They all get “vanished” before the media-heavy trials. You normally find out at the end not when they’ve been arrested.

Docker is slow on Macs. That’s why there are multiple packages to try and solve it. And still it’s slow. And that is a massive amount of people. Plenty of people play games on Macs. It may not be the purpose they bought it does they bought

It all depends on what you're doing. For many on here, Macs are technically worse because they use docker and that means instead of just running docker and using the container functionality in the Linux kernel they have to virtualise a

Apple are making devices for people who want things that look pretty. Functionality is generally not the major concern. Think about it. They are late with most new tech as they will just wait until it becomes cheaper, why? Because they alre
