Ooh, you beat mine: 848330 (unfortunately, mine was hacked over 5 years ago, and by the time I realized, their logs didn’t go back far enough for me to validate that I was the original owner)

I just tried this a couple different ways:

1. Removing permission for “nearby devices” - this unfortunately appears to block both Bluetooth and NFC permission
2. Turning off the phone’s Bluetooth - NFC still works while the Bluetooth radio is off, but you’d basically never be able to safely use Bluetooth anytime you aren’t watching your car. Setting a PIN is still unfortunately the only way to go, and hope that a dedicated attacker doesn’t also find a way to capture your PIN (e.g. camera zoomed in on your screen).

This is the part of the conversation where I have to admit that you could be right, but I don’t know enough to say one way or the other. And since I have no plans to become a pediatrician, I don’t intend to go find out.

In this hypothetical, the AI would be trained on fully clothed adults and children. As well as what many of those same adults look like unclothed. It might not get things completely right on its initial attempt, but with some minor prompting it should be able to get pretty close. That said, the AI will know the correct head size proportions from just the clothed datasets. It could probably even infer limb proportions from the clothed datasets as well.

I think there are two arguments going on here, though

1. It doesn’t need to be trained on that data to produce it
2. It was actually trained on that data.

Most people arguing point 1 would be willing concede point 2, especially since you linked evidence of it.

I don’t believe you’re fully arguing in good faith here.

I’m assuming you’ve seen a naked adult, and if you had never seen a naked young person, I don’t believe for one second you would be unable to infer what a naked young person might look like. You might not know for certain, but your best guess would likely be very accurate.

Generative AI can absolutely make those same inferences, so it does not need inappropriate training material for it to generate it.

The AI knows what a young person looks like.
It knows what a clothed adult looks like.
It knows what an unclothed adult looks like.

An AI trained on 100% legal material could make that inappropriate inference without even trying.

Now, have all the popular AI models actually been trained on 100% legal material? I have no way of knowing that answer, but you’re incorrect to assume that just because it can output inappropriate images, that absolutely 100% proves that data was also included in its training input. Edit: nevermind, it definitely has been trained on inappropriate material, but that doesn’t disprove that it doesn’t need to be.

He’s saying “crime pays,” so the tax won’t hurt them.

The viewing options OP listed should all work with AV1, I think they were just worried by the preset names. Plus, hardware support should only get better.

OP, you should be able to adjust settings after you select a preset, so you can pick different dimensions/frame rates/audio codecs/etc.

Side note, I’ve found that the matroska container is the easiest one for me to use if I want better subtitle support.

“Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.”

I mean, if she’s already dying, what’s the issue here? I’m losing money if I have to stop and call 911, when she has a perfectly good phone to do it herself.

It’s probably closer to a strawman or false dichotomy, than it is projection.

Though, providing basic needs to prisoners seems like a relatively small price to pay to keep them off the streets and hopefully deter other crime.

What’s scary is that I think the owner of userbenchmark actually believes that statement. Which might explain how he’s so out of touch that he thinks his own crap doesn’t stink and deserves to be locked behind a subscription. I’m just sad that there might be a not insignificant number of people that pay for it.

I sync OneDrive to my Synology as well, another reason I’m okay with the “double” traffic is that my and my wife’s photos from our smartphones immediately get backed up to our Synology, even when we’re away from home.

The original question was whether it was legal, not whether they could get away with it. If they did get caught, there is a very high likelihood they could be convicted of fraud.

Okay, maybe a not-for-profit organization that he voluntarily resigned from gave him a golden parachute deal with perpetual royalties that’s totally secret. We can never know …

One thing we do know? Using Brave has a 100% chance of supporting him financially.

I had to read it a half dozen times to figure out what it meant. My favorite thought before I realized the use of the double negative was superfluous:

“What’s a no grill?”

When I lived in England, I felt like I was going to freeze if it got colder than 17°C, usually had the heat set to 19°C. During the summer, probably around 22-24°C.

I now live in Phoenix, AZ, and set it at about 65°F in winter and 74°F in summer.

For actually displaying dates to others, I agree that spelling out the month is absolutely preferred. But if space is limited, you’re somewhat required to pick a very shortened format, and the US version is dumb, even if that’s what you should use when displaying in that locale.

But for working with dates on computers, year-month-day works great, because it’s still human readable, is naturally sortable, and makes it easier for serialization.

The first one is conventionally never year-day-month, and if anyone ever sent me a date of 2023-17-08, I would respond with, “What the hell?! Are you being evil on purpose?”

I was just thinking about this more, and what if Google decides to implement this on Google maps? Am I going to have to put a message up saying something like, “sorry, you can’t view our outage map unless you use a browser that supports web integrity”?

Because you’re right, convincing the higher ups to let me switch to OpenStreetMap is probably going to be a losing battle.

I work on the website for a medium sized utility, and will definitely resist implementing this.

I have been trying to convince my manager to let me switch to an authentication solution that supports webauthn, though.
