Not at all. They are using copyrighted material to make a product that they are selling and profiting from. Profiting off of someone else’s work is not the same as making a copy of it for personal use.

So what do you use this for? Except for spam and scams

Oh no, poor huge corporation that can not steal from private citizens 😢 they should be allowed do whatever they need to maximize their profits!!! Fuck normal people and their rights!!!

Since you like great games and devs that care, have you played The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild?

Thank you for posting it here. It’s an interesting read! Especially the part about pole vaulting history

There is also wallhaven.cc if you need more options

Then you should have said that in the beginning and there’d be no argument. Only then this have nothing to do with all these bullshit companies, because what they are doing is snake oil, not “AI”.

I’m with you on the current use of machine learning being snake oil but I never said anything about ML. I’m not sure how my first post was unclear. You just made a lot of assumptions.

According to Google I am using the term correctly.

AI is the broader concept of enabling a machine or system to sense, reason, act, or adapt like a human

ML is an application of AI that allows machines to extract knowledge from data and learn from it autonomously

Edit: I was apparently too tired to see that you wrote machine learning in your initial reply

Edit 2: I feel like this discussion has gone way off topic and I am done with it. The OP claimed that we will not see real self-driving cars within our lifetime and I disagree with that

Blue LED-lights, the TV, radio, airplanes, the personal computer, the light bulb, nuclear fission, optical microscopes, shooting lasers for an aptosecond are among some thing previously thought to be impossible to do.

Who said anything about Steve Jobs? I never mentioned anyone specific and as you say, there are many people that would make that list.

I would consider the “experts” and laymen with a sceptical attitude towards innovation to be nay-sayers.

I think it’s weird how so many people suddenly became experts on AI as soon as OpenAI released ChatGPT.

I don’t like the current trend of companies putting half-assed AI in to everything. AI is the new buzzword to bring in hype. But that doesn’t mean I can not see the value it can potentially bring in the future once it’s more developed. The developments within the AI-field has only just begun.

My use of the word AI is very broad. I am not saying that ChatGPT could drive a car. But I 100% believe that we will have self-driving cars before I die of old age.

Innovators and visionaries is what drives us forward. If they listened all the nay-sayers we would get nowhere. I will keep being optimistic about the future developments of technology.

I think it’s unreasonable to state that it won’t happen within our lifetime. That’s hopefully 60+ years away for me. It’s a long time for computing and general AI development to advance. Just look at how much has happened in the technology field for the past 30 years.

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” - Nelson Mandela

I don’t believe that. Based on how far AI has come in the recent years I think it’s only a matter of time before someone (other than Tesla) manages to do it well.

The biggest problem with the Tesla Auto pilot is Elon. Just the fact that he insists on using only camera-based vision because “people only need their eyes to drive” should tell you all you need to know about their AI.

Did you even read what this is about?

The European Commission used its statement to detail its concern “that Microsoft may have granted Teams a distribution advantage by not giving customers the choice whether or not to acquire access to Teams when they subscribe to their SaaS productivity applications. This advantage may have been further exacerbated by interoperability limitations between Teams’ competitors and Microsoft’s offerings. The conduct may have prevented Teams’ rivals from competing, and in turn innovating, to the detriment of customers in the European Economic Area.”

Let me guess. You’re an American?

In Europe we have rules, regulations and consumer protections because our respective countries and the collective union actually give a shit about the people that live here.

Oh okey, then I am with you! I have an integrated GPU in my processor that have been tinkering with but for my usecase it’s not enough. Ideally would I need two external GPUs in my system so I can game on both Windows and Linux without rebooting or leaving Linux. Detaching a GPU from a running system is quite messy 😅

Could you please explain how to do it in only the GUI? I need to disable my Nvidia GPU with scripts, detaching the GPU from my main OS, before I can pass it. It’s not 100% reliable

I am using Asuswrt-merlin on my router that does not support openwrt

“The Microsoft-powered bot says bosses can take workers’ tips and that landlords can discriminate based on source of income”

Well it ain’t wrong. Business can absolutely do that and do absolutely do that. If they get caught they get a slap on the wrist and that’s it.

As long as the punishment does not match the crime the American society will never get better. This is why proper rules, regulations and oversight needs to be in place. The “free” market will never do the right thing on its own.

I would assume as any other distro. Windows applications are run through Wine or Proton on Linux. I am not currently using Vanilla OS on my machine (using arch btw), still waiting for the stable 2.0 to dive in deeper.

To run Windows applications I would install flatpak package support in any of the subsystems (arch, fedora), then install Bottles for Windows applications and Steam or Lutris for games. Never tried Lutris for applications but it might work well too.

Vanilla OS 2.0 sounds like it could be for you. That distro can install everything. I mean everything. Ubuntu stuff, Fedora stuff, Arch stuff and whatever else!
