Comparing it to Tesla certainly is a choice. I'm amazed at how many ways the cybertruck has found to die on people for example. More varied ways to crash and burn than nethack.

(why are all podcast ads just ads for other podcasts? It’s like podcast incest)

Because they think you live in a real country, not the USA.

old internet

I wonder for how many people this is a reactionary impulse, wanting back to the 'old internet' they didn't actually participate in. At least in modern days the flamewar posts are quite limited in length, in the old days they could reach novel sizes. Anyway sure we should go back to the old internet, where suddenly your whole university had no internet because there was a dos attack on the network to force a netsplit on an a random irc channel.

Waste of a perfectly good fire.

I didn't take it as such, I just was again a bit confused by the actions cloudflare takes. Assume it is some weird technolibertarian thing.

I'm a little bit in the camp of 'it might be legal, but that doesn't mean it is ok'. So I get why people are annoyed. Also copying a whole project and then slamming a different license on it and going 'jobs done' very much fits the promptfondler vibe, so im not mad, more of a 'lol, of course they did' thing. But that is me.

There are the weirdest people who make 'content' out there. For example, I saw a 'how to start the game' joke guide on steam, so I went to their page to block them (to see if this also blocks the guides from popping up, doesn't seem so) and they had made hundreds of these guides, all just copy pasted shit. And there were more people doing the exact same thing. Bizarre shit. (Prob related to the thing where you can give people stickers, gamification was a mistake).

Don't worry, you can, and it is even in song!

Cloudflare is such a weird company in various ways. Saying loudly that they can't judge groups when people ask them not to support the neo-nazis, harassers and worse (they have moved on this under pressure, but it takes a lot of pressure). But then they do this.

Exactly the problem im talking about. What about all the good things the confederate state ... no wait.

re: how can a chatbot help with life?

This just their brains on science fiction, they think chatbot can help like the independent AI agents could in the science fiction they half remember. Or at least they think marketing it like that will appeal to people.

A lot less, 'Copilot make this list of bullet points into an email' and more 'Copilot, lock on to the intruder, close the bulkheads after them and flush it to the nearest trash compactor'.

I think that 'giving microsoft the power to do things in my behalf' is quite an iffy decision to make, but that is just me. Ow look it autorenewed your licenses for you, and bought a subscription Copaint, it even got you a deal not 240 dollars per year, but 120, a steal!

E: I saw this image and because cursed eyeballs is the gift that keeps on giving, I will link it to yall as well, nsfw warning. This is the AI future microsoft wants

Think it is an attempt to make it easier to feed somebodies work into a LLM. So you know, stealing.
