Seems like a strong argument for dedicated hardware to me. Something card shaped 😉

Copyright law needs to change with things becoming public domain much sooner than the currently do, but... If a bunch of billionaires want to profit off someone elses work by using material to train AI, they can bloody well pay fairly for that use, or accept if the owner of that material refuses to permit/license them.

The basic premise that there is some universally accepted 'need' to train ai models is just not one i can see as valid.

I don't think I understand this. I don't actually want to pay with my phone, so thats a non-problem to me, but when I can access my bank with a browser on any pc in the world, why do they need attestation on a mobile? I dont see why the requirement is inconsistent.

Now he needs to tell them that any use of UK based facilities for aggression against a sovereign state will result in an order for all US personnel to gtfo until their adminstration can behave.

I find it irritating that element's website promotes their origins as the creators of matrix but doesnt anywhere actually give names that could be researched. Yes i could get the directors details from Companies House but frankly its just easier for me to move on and not use their software.

We once had empires, ruled by emperors

And we had kingdoms, ruled by kings.

Now we have countries....

This is also a pattern...

good example that works well on a data minimisation basis when they the need is for some indication of age appropriated trust. There are limits to it though. - to actually satisfy age-gates/verification they would also need to tie your identity to the ownership of the card, and ensure the card isn't some kind of under 18 prepaid affair.

This is ridiculous and clearly shows both nefarious intent and complete disregard for the GDPR and it's core principle of data minimisation. There must be a simpler solution to this - maybe through attestation from a trusted third party who has already (legitimately) verified the user's identity - like a bank. Imagine a user creating and providing a token that allows a one-time request through the open banking standards to receive an attestation on whether or not the user is over 18 - without disclosing the users actual dob or any other personal information except who and how the attestation was made. Not sure if it would even be necessary for companies to store precisely when the attestation was made if the banks themselves record the event.

Apologies for misinterpreting. If you're games focussed then by all means try mint, but Bazzite might be a simpler implementation.

This might be useful as a intro reference point for your investigations: https://www.xda-developers.com/bazzite-has-me-reconsidering-windows/

I'm sure you could dual boot that as easily as mint.
