Mama told me not to come.
She said, that ain’t the way to have fun.
I just played through Pony Island and really enjoyed it. It doesn’t have much replayability, but it’s a unique experience that I think most will enjoy. If you like Doki Doki Literature Club, Undertale or Inscryption (last is the same dev), you’ll like this.
I’m going to be picking up The Hex because I’ve liked the dev’s other two games.
If you have been claiming games on EGS, it was free there are some point.
It got so bad that my wishlist was broken. I could feel the pain through the Internet as others threw money at Valve.
Let me know if it works and I’ll follow. I don’t need quality, I just need something for my kids to watch occasionally.
Consider PiHole as a whole home network first line of defense.
I didn’t have any respect for him before, and now I guess I have disrespect.
And that’s exactly what that page discusses. It links three options you can try:
The first two are paid, the last is FOSS, and it claims each can mount Backblaze B2 as a Windows drive. I haven’t tried any of them, so YMMV.
That depends on how similar your resulting algorithm is to the sources you were “inspired” by. You’re probably fine if you’re not copying verbatim and your code just ends up looking similar because that’s how solutions are generally structured, but there absolutely are limits there.
If you’re trying to rewrite something into another license, you’ll need to be a lot more careful.
I complain all the time. But that’s not the subject of this post…
IP Man. Great movies.
I’m not going to be monitoring Chinese code projects. They don’t seem to care much about copyright, so they’ll probably just yoink the code into proprietary projects and not care about the licenses.
What am I going to do, sue someone in China? And decompile everything that comes from China to check if my code was likely in it? That’s ridiculous. If it’s domestic, I probably have a chance, but not if it’s in another country, and especially not one like China that doesn’t seem to care about copyright.
Here are options for to mount Backblaze B2 as a drive. It’s $6/TB/month, and I think they allow <1TB, so for 300GB you’d pay ~$2/month. So I think they’re pretty competitive, but I’m not familiar with Google Drive’s terms. They’re certainly in the same ballpark, if not cheaper, but it depends on your egress and Google Drive’s policies around that (how much you download from their service).
Yes, both sides suck. One side sucking more than the other doesn’t change that.
Biden is awful on policy, and I dislike much of what he “got done” in his 4-years of office. And I actually voted for him in 2020. I voted for him for three reasons:
This year, “not Trump” is still true, but that doesn’t change the fact that Biden still sucks on policies I care about. His website just says “defeat Trump.” Here he is on “the issues”:
And comparing them on the issues:
So I guess Biden wins a slight edge here by being less terrible than Trump, actually trying something, and not messing things up too bad. But I disagree with pretty much every policy proposal he has.
Here are my priorities:
Neither candidate seems to have a plan for any of that, they are either silent or opposite. So that’s why I consider both to suck, they suck on the issues I care about, and they’re decent on issues I care much less about.
So yes, both sides are pretty much the same to me, and since I live in a very red state, it won’t matter if I vote for the less crappy option. So I’ll be voting third party instead, since I do have options that align with my priorities.
I’m pretty sure I do understand the issue. Here are some facts (and an article to back it up):
And here’s my interpretation/guesses:
So:
Using socketed RAM won’t fix performance issues related to running out of RAM, that issue is the same regardless. Only adding RAM will fix those performance issues, and Apple could just as easily make “special” RAM so you can’t buy socketed RAM on the regular market anyway (e.g. they’d need a different memory standard anyway due to Unified Memory).
I have hated Apple’s memory pricing for decades now, it has always been way more expensive to add RAM to an Apple device at order time vs PC competitors (I still add my own RAM to laptops, but it’s usually way cheaper through HP, Lenovo, etc than Apple at build-time). I’m not defending them here, I’m merely saying that the decision to use soldered RAM makes a lot of engineering sense, especially with the new Unified Memory architecture they’re using in the M-series devices.
The built-in Digital Wellbeing & Parental controls works. I have it on my Android 11 device, haven’t tested on anything newer (it’s not on my Graphene OS device based on the most recent Android though).
Settings > Digital Wellbeing & Parental controls > Dashboard > click the timer icon next to an app and set a limit
If you want something outside of the Google ecosystem (e.g. you’re running GrapheneOS), the following should work (untested):
There are probably others, that was just a cursory check.
And how will you know what original work(s) to compare it to?
code generated by an AI is arguably not a “substantial portion” of the software
How do you verify that though?
And does the model need to include all of the licenses? Surely the “all copies or substantial portions” would apply to LLMs, since they literally include the source in the model as a derivative work. That’s fine if it’s for personal use (fair use laws apply), but if you’re going to distribute it (e.g. as a centralized LLM), then you need to be very careful about how licenses are used, applied, and distributed.
So I absolutely do believe that building a broadly used model is a violation of copyright, and that’s true whether it’s under an open source license or not.
It certainly can. Most licences require derivative works to be under the same or similar licence, and an AI based on FOSS would likely not respect those terms. It’s the same issue as AI training on music, images, and text, it’s a likely violation of copyright and thus a violation of open source licensing terms.
Training on it is probably fine, but generating code from the model is likely a whole host of licence violations.
Which is probably for the best because I think they’re both pretty awful on policy.
That’s really sad to say though. I wish people care more about issues and policy, and I wish candidates actually cared about and fulfilled their campaign promises. But that’s apparently not the reality I get to live in…
On the deep discounts page is The Hex. I haven’t played it, but it’s by the same dev as Pony Island and Inscryption, both of which I thoroughly enjoyed, so I’m going to get it. They’re all on a great sale right now.
