OP here, I run a computer shop that handles consumer computers. People bring me machines they purchased from electronics store. So i have to mainly contend with what is out there. I looked into getting into a partnership with a reseller, bu

I'm the OP, yes I did not provide much evidence in that specific article, and I'm getting to the point, based on responses that there might be some irregularities between search methods for model specific drivers, so Im willing to

It's not an assertion. It's a fact. You need to be in control of the auth method or you can be controlled through it, plain and simple. People that by into systems they don't control are shooting themselves in the foot becaus

Yeah I agree. I'm not interested in being locked into an ecosystem I don't control. I want my authentications to be reliablely tied to my choices and actions. Not some system that has a for-profit motive to tie me into a system th

500 pounds of e-waste per second mostly do to software mechanisms that prevent the use of hardware. This is a bad situation for all of us.

This sounds like the exact same argument that copyright trolls were against. Where's RIAA and the MPAA? I guess we are talking out of both sides of our mouth now.

Yea good point. whats the difference between spidering content and training a model? Its almost like access pages of contact like a search engine.. If the information is publically available?

I thought the essay had some good points. Its too bad people are wrapped up in there own way of thinking about the world that they cant see the value and questioning the things we value.

That's a good point. I tend to stay away from negative thinking about hot topics like this for that very reason. Even though I have my doubts about something, I tend to keep it to myself because I don't want to bring people down a
