So they already have AGI? Why doesn’t it solve new problems then? Bunch of bullshit, they’re just adjusting their models to the “benchmarks” to get more VC funding

circumvent such requirement

Yes, and you’d probably do this by using unregulated sites, like many impacted by the UK law https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/unregulated-sites-porn-uk-age-verification-b2895231.html

A child with unregulated access to the internet will always see content not appropriate for them. Personally i’m much more concerned about violent and morbid content than porn. You’d never see that censored because it’s part of the news and plastered all over the internet.

rant ? edit: ooh it’s probably… bitch, what a stupid word filter

What’s the vendor lock-in like with Onshape? My father used a “free” year of Solidworks and when it was over he was locked out from all his projects unless he paid. He uses FreeCAD exclusively now and is happy to own his files.

If you make something more difficult, fewer people will do it.

Yes, this is the Chilling effect, and it’s not a good thing. You don’t need a VPN to watch porn online without ID verification, not even in the UK. I’m sure the great UK firewall will come eventually tho.

Ever applied for a bank account online?

Yes, I went to my local post office and showed them my ID, I’d never send my ID and face over video. This applies only to banks, what if a porn site asks you (and you want to visit it)? If you don’t want to do it, your freedom is taken away from you.

it still does bring a benefit

If you think it’s a benefit, pushing everyone to use less moderated platforms then sure. You clearly don’t understand the internet. If you click a link and are exprected to show a video with your ID and face visible, what do you do? I say it is extremely dangerous and criminal for a government to demand this from their citizens. So many people will have their identity stolen, I guarantee it, it’s already happening and will get much worse. https://www.rstreet.org/commentary/25-percent-of-kids-will-face-identity-theft-before-turning-18-age-verification-laws-will-make-this-worse/

The law does nothing but push adults and underage users to unregulated platforms. They (the general public and the politicians) don’t understand the internet. You don’t understand the internet if you think this accomplishes anything. The only way for children to be safe on the internet is by educating their parents.

The computers in the restroom are literally free, you can just take them. It’s a free computer with a screen!

He was boosting his streams with bots, which is why it’s fraud. By doing this he also tricked the recommendation algorithm to show more of the generated tracks to legit listeners, thereby he removing human listeners from legit artists, hurting their income. (this is also written in the article)

This is not really a conspiracy, the german BND belives the “lab accident” theory to be 80-95% true and they knew this in 2020. This information was witheld from the public. https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/bnd-corona-ursprung-wuhan-labor-bundesregierung-100.html

It’s the new Resident Evil 9 (Resident Evil Requiem)

The original image is bad because the game is rendered at a low resolution and upscaled likely using DLSS 4.5, I think this is intentionally deceptive. We know they have to be using DLSS 4.5 due to path tracing being enabled and running in real time which is extremely GPU intensive even for the 5090. That smoothes away every texture. Nvidia is trying to tie the gaming industry into being “AI default” instead of using normal rendering techniques, which, if done correctly look much better than this.

The textures are flat on purpose so the AI filter looks “more detailed” in comparison.

They don’t have to be like this, see this Callisto Protocol 2022 screenshot no weird AI filter needed.

Hey, please don’t insult 3rd world internet like this

Buy the game, play for 10 minutes, leave a negative review citing the performance issues and then refund it.

YouTube does this because it lets them steal ad revenue from creators

The church has protected them for decades.

It’s called “protein leather” and it’s the worst shit ever
