We're insured, right?

They don't even do that. They just take the edge off enough that I don't actually try to throw myself off a bridge.

I mean, sure, but the issue is that the rules aren't being applied on the same level. The data in question isn't free for you, it's not free for me, but it's free for OpenAI. They don't face any legal consequences, whereas humans in the USA are prosecuted including an average fine per human of $266,000 and an average prison sentence of 25 months.

OpenAI has pirated, violated copyright, and distributed more copyright than an i divided human is reasonably capable of, and faces no consequences.

My use of the term "human" is awkward, but US law considers corporations people, so i tried to differentiate.

I'm in favour of free and open data, but I'm also of the opinion that the rules should apply to everyone.

I all keep going back to my Pebble Time. The battery life and focus on productivity are second to none.

Whats even more amazing is that adults today are still missing the obvious.

I still have my pebble time, and it's still my favorite smartwatch os.

I'd buy more diamonds, but I spent all my money on avocado toast.

Audacity is wild to me. It does so much on so many platforms.

It is propaganda when the person who caused the problem solved the problem then expects an applause.

If they ever advertised a use case for it, then took that use case away, they can be sued. My most recent memory if the class action against Sony when they dropped Linux support on the PS3.

I mean, the delivery people need to get paid, right?
