I remember when i first started using GIMP the thing that threw me the most was that there was no 'safe default' state that you could get to by pressing escape, like 'select' is for other programs.

If you think this is a small thing consider that escape/back is one of the only 3 default controls on phone UIs. It's super important and Gimp doesn't have it.

On your link there, I'm sorry to say the author is making a very silly argument. It boils down to 'if you see a specific race in this racist caricature then you're the real racist'. This would only be true if racist caricatures were a new thing never seen before. It's akin to saying 'oh i didn't mean black people when i screamed the n- word. You're the racist for thinking the n- word refers to black people'.

That's an extreme example but you see my point that there's a history that's being ignored.

Worth pointing out, this specific kind of attack targets a device based on its mac address and sends it shedloads of junk requests. There is no chance of it interfering with emergency wireless transmissions.

That said, i agree it's not OK to mess with other people's devices like this.

Yeah except the focal point of those mirrors is measured in meters not 100s of kilometers. You can't use them to focus on something that far away.

We only work on orthographic! Specifically isometric.

Do you have a means of securely and reliably getting it? Cause I don't.

You really come across as coming from a place of privilege whilst lamenting that the reason poor people are worried about this is because they're just not as nice as you.

Believe it or not I need to eat food. Crazy I know.

They've all already done that haha. You could argue that a human has only one life in which to remix that art but an AI is theoretically immortal, so it's a different category of customer.

At any rate, it's clear that AI should not have free access to copyrighted works, like news articles, academic papers, stock images, and various kinds of non deviantart art.

Unironically yes, if AI companies paid for training data everyone would be much happier.

I sincerely doubt that NOBODY is willing to sell data to them. It's far more likely that they have not offered anyone a fair price yet, which makes sense because that would set a precedent.

Even then, if people don't want to sell them their copyrighted work then tough. You can't compel people to take customers they don't want.

This slogan is explicitly about erasing the state of Israel. Regardless of what you think about Israel's right to exist, it's not going anywhere. So this slogan just entrenches everybody further whilst more innocents die. It's dumb and I wish people would recognise it for the anti-praxis that it is.
