Pretty much anything handling unstructed data (audio, video, text) is using training data that has copyrighted content.

Star trek touches on it a bit. Some people definitely still cook in the shows, but it’s almost seen as a thing for special occasions.

I also think they left a lot unexplored with the whole concept. Like cut back on the relationship and politics stuff and focus on what it means to be Mickey/clone.

I always wonder how many of these are actually just patches behind the scene to fix viral trends. Or even more devious, they use the viral trends to patch a specific failure point to make it feel like progress is being made.

I actually think their song for Mashle season 2 might be better - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZN98D5_N4M

Edit: should’ve mentioned the band is Creepy Nuts

Came here to add this.

Definitely better to watch with subtitles.

I’ve been thinking converting some assets to cash and keeping some of that as actual physical cash might not be the worst idea.

I don’t think anyone expected almost blowing up the bond market. Why do you think it should’ve been obvious he’d tarrifs the world+allies?

No it’s not mandatory, although sounds like some states may require it.

The server for this product is Microsofts cloud, so there is no server cost, you’re just bought into their ecosystem and maybe a slightly higher subscription cost.

It also means little to no hardware maintenance and streamlined IT processes.

I’m bot saying it’s my kind of approach, but there are definitely a lot of companies that could benefit (given most people are really just using a browser and maybe some word/PowerPoint software).

Definitely, and that’s why hard/strict laws or rules can be dangerous. Much like the famous “I know it when I see it” judgment on obscenity.

The biggest issue with this line of thinking is, how do you prove it’s CP without a victim. I suppose at a certain threshold it becomes obvious, but that can be a very blurry line (there was a famous case where a porn star had to be flown to a court case to prove the video wasn’t CP, but can’t find the link right now).

So your left with a crime that was committed with no victim and no proof, which can be really easy to abuse.

Edit: This is the case I was thinking of - https://nypost.com/2010/04/24/a-trial-star-is-porn/

Thanks! That helps a lot!

Out of curiosity what do you do at the protests? Is it just standing around or something more involved?

Oh yeah, definitely.

There are a couple of benefits to credit cards (in the US at least).

• Protection: If some steals my credit card info, I can fight the charges with the credit card company (and am not out any money while sorting it out) . With debit cards the money is gone and you’re fighting to get it back.
• Rewards: most offer good cash back or point rewards. It means I save 2-3% on average compared to using a debit card
• Persk: Many cards will add coverage for car rentals or discounts just for using them for the purchase.

If you pay off the card each month you get all of those persk at zero cost. While technically credit card companies charge stores 2-3% for each swipe, in the US at least there is no price difference for the customer for cash/debit/credit.

Edit/TLDR: In the US it’s cheaper and safer to use a credit card (if you can pay the balance every month).

Refactoring a code base is kinda like general maintenance for the application. Over time deprecated features, temp fixes, etc. start to be a lot of the code base. By cleaning things up you can make it more maintainable, efficient, etc.

That being said, for systems this large you usually fix up parts of it and iterate over time. Trying to do the whole code base is hard cause it’s like replacing the engine while the car is in motion.

Make a fake account and just post random things so the government doesn’t think your lame when they check your social media.

This article and thread are talking about border agents, which operate under different rules/regulations than you local police officer.

While US citizens cannot be denied entry, non-citizens can if they refuse to unlock their phone. Even US citizens can have devices confiscated if you refuse to unlock the phone for them - https://www.theverge.com/policy/634264/customs-border-protection-search-phone-airport-rights. Because at the border, it’s been decided searches don’t require a warrant.

I’ve seen this a lot recently. This isn’t about what police can do, it’s about border crossings. You can be required to unlock your device when entering the country or be denied entry (or possibly worse).

The best route is to have a phone specifically for travel.
