After 2029, the plane is to be transferred to the trump library, presumably refitted back to civilian spec, air force paying all costs.

There is no way in hell that the US would let Trump walk away with that gear.

10 years ago, we might have said much the same about the former President of the USA keeping most-secret classified documents unsecured in a bathroom of their resort.

Who knows what may actually happen.

Only for some things, though. If you host your own e-mail these days, chances are, you’re going to have a very difficult time sending them anywhere without risking them being deleted, or automatically thrown into spam folders.

Especially since Epic doesn’t really have much to offer over Steam, other than its games and exclusives.

It wasn’t all that long that where Epic Games had the infamous issue with the store. Since their store didn’t have a shopping cart, if you wanted to buy multiple games at once, you had to buy them all in separate transactions, but the store flagged that as suspicious purchases/fraud, so more often than not, if you found a bunch of games you liked, and bought them all, your account would get locked.

Remind me in 3 days.

Although poison pills are only so effective since it’s a cat and mouse game, and they only really work for a specific version of a model, with other models working around it.

People have just been doing dumb things for reputation since forever. We had the cinnamon challenge back in our day.

I was envisioning “improvised heart surgery” as in a stabbing with a knife, as opposed to any surgical function.

But generally, if a someone is having a medical emergency and is brought into the ER, or is having a medical emergency in the ER, they will be triaged, and put ahead of a lot of people whose care isn’t as urgent, for good reason.

Ah, the technocratic solution. “We’re fine leaving things as-is, because someone will invent a thing to fix it soon”.

This is why there are so many stories about planes being grounded because someone tossed a coin in, according to superstition, or a nut or something fell into the compressor.

The whole turbine has to be taken apart to get the coin or it might dent something, and the whole engine then does something most exciting when the pilot tries to run it up to service speeds, as a result of the imbalance.

Basically. If someone’s been on the receiving end of improvised heart surgery, they’ll be rushed ahead in priorities. So if you’re not having anything serious, the wait may be irritating and long, but if it’s urgent, it will be shorter due to the whole actively dying bit.

Conversely, while the research is good in theory, the data isn’t that reliable.

The subreddit has rules requiring users engage with everything as though it was written by real people in good faith. Users aren’t likely to point out a bot when the rules explicitly prevent them from doing that.

There wasn’t much of a good control either. The researchers were comparing themselves to the bots, so it could easily be that they themselves were less convincing, since they were acting outside of their area of expertise.

And that’s even before the whole ethical mess that is experimenting on people without their consent. Post-hoc consent is not informed consent, and that is the crux of human experimentation.

Trying to monetize the piracy of your users. That’s a bold business strategy.

Some time ago, never mind how long precisely, Plex were trying to legitimise themselves, by adding streaming from official sources, etc.

I would be curious if this is meant to be a deterrent, or just to look like one by making piracy expensive, so they can eat their cake and have it too.

I don’t know, photoshop exists, and it hasn’t stopped anything so far.

AI makes it easier, but may not do much to stop it.

Just look at Facebook, or the puff-jacket late pope. People do take AI-generated posts as the real thing so much of the time.

Even if they did, they would jsut be used to train a new generation of AI that could defeat the detector, and we’d be back round to square 1.

Though, you generally don’t tell that to their face, not in that way, and certainly not when they’re confiding in you about/celebrating finding themselves. That’s simply hurtful, and beyond rude.

You generally won’t go up to your friends on their wedding day, and say the same phrase. You’re more likely to put it as “I’ll miss drinking with you in the back yard, but I’m happy you’re happy”, and not as a seriously-spoken “It’s like watching my friend die!”.

“capability of holding eggs” covers the vast majority of humankind. Hands are useful like that.

Especially since they’ve currently got a big, expensive war on their hands, that they’re all-hands-on-deck for.

And normalising it is a good thing all-round. You want privacy to be used for trivial, unimportant things, not for it to be seen as something that only most secret vital things need, and thus something most don’t.

People would be more likely to use it that way.

Nor their history with intercepting/inserting affiliate links. Sure, that was for a crypto site, but nothing suggests that it can’t happen with other things.
