Oh shit, my bad. Yeah, hard agree there

Additionally, the platform being owned by an outright Nazi should give even the most out of touch people pause.

How is Daniel Ek a nazi? That’s a wild take if I’ve ever heard one.

I’d be impressed with any model that succeeds with that, but assuming one does, the complete works of Shakespeare are not copyright protected - they have fallen into the public domain since a very long time ago.

For any works still under copyright protection, it would probably be a case of a trial to determine whether a certain work is transformative enough to be considered fair use. I’d imagine that this would not clear that bar.

I don’t think anyone would consider complete verbatim recitement of the material to be anything but a copyright violation, being the exact same thing that you produce.

Fair use requires the derivative work to be transformative, and no transformation occurs when you verbatim recite something.

It’s extremely frustrating to read this comment thread because it’s obvious that so many of you didn’t actually read the article, or even half-skim the article, or even attempted to even comprehend the title of the article for more than a second.

For shame.

…no?

That’s exactly what the ruling prohibits - it’s fair use to train AI models on any copies of books that you legally acquired, but never when those books were illegally acquired, as was the case with the books that Anthropic used in their training here.

This satirical torrent client would be violating the laws just as much as one without any slow training built in.

Planes are safer.

Americans unironically believe stupid shit like this, hilarious

Not to shit on your perfectly reasonable parade, but in Germany there is high speed rail through the whole . takes about 6 hours from top to bottom.

Maybe not a great example there, with that running something like 100 km/h average speed.

If you bump those numbers up to be competitive with actually high-performing HSR operators, that trip would take 2-3 hours, immediately killing any competitive edge that air travel would have on those segments - 2-3 hours will basically get you to the airport and through security, you’ll have arrived already if you were on a well-performing train by then.

HSR is the best alternative for any trip up to approximately 800 km, at which point air travel starts beating it out. This is for daytime travel only - trains could be competitive for far longer distances with overnight sleeper service. I’d not be against taking night HSRs going between any points in Europe basically.

Alas, this would require non-shit politicians, which definitely does not exist

We have such a fee as well in Sweden, but piracy is still illegal and prosecuted.

Australia expects us to respect them as a nation and then they pull this shit

There are like five engineers still on staff in that place, it’s honestly surprising that they’ve been able to keep the lights on for this long.

Anyway, let the ship sink and move on

It’s gotten significantly worse in basically every regard here in Sweden with regards to immigration, unfortunately.

It’s actually worse than lossless being discernable or not on bluetooth - people cannot reliably tell between high-quality compressed audio and lossless audio generally. This has been studied to oblivion - the jury is out, there’s no more discussion to be had on the subject.

Fuck being efficient all the time. That’s such a fucking capitalist mindset.

Are you under the impression that a socialist or communist society would not be in the pursuit of efficiency? Think again. They would merely be making sure the efficiency would not come at the cost of the workers, and put the increased efficiency to use in service of the workers (fewer hours etc).

I don’t know if ‘simply’ is the word I’d use here, but there’s clearly been some unforced errors on Google’s part with regards to search

Noe does iOS, Android has the vast majority of the smartphone market

Jellyfin is better anyway

I wish this were true, but as a multi-year Plex-to-Jellyfin migrant, I have to point out that Plex was the better software.

I still choose to run Jellyfin for other reasons (don’t like the commercial path Plex is taking, among others), but I still do miss the better reliability and larger feature set in the Plex software stack.

I recommend liberal use of the concept of critical support

He’s always lied about the self-driving capabilities of the cars and promised timelines that have never held. Print this statement out and use it as toilet paper
