You can’t compare prohibition in a broad context to restrictive usage.

You can’t drive a vehicle in the sidewalk either, doesn’t mean you’re forbidden to have a car.

Have your phone - download TikTok, Canva, Wikipedia, WhatsApp, go nuts… Outside of a classroom.

Other Sunni schools of jurisprudence rely on early Islamic scholars who state that a fetus can “sleep and stop developing for 5 years in a womb”

Glad to hear this justice system is so smart, well developed and based on ground realities!

Maybe not directly for “being too Western” but certainly it’s the one providing the moral framework for allowing murder for ideological and behavioural differences.

Works fine on Proton, it even creates the mod folder in the correct place

It’s 2025, I’m not your middle school teacher, I’m not going to “show you” anything. Go learn the subject yourself, or don’t and keep repeating nonsense as if it were some deep insight, either way I’m fine.

I couldn’t give less of a fuck about any company or their “projects”, selling a product is not a mission to empower users and help the world or some bullshit like that.

democracy can be viewed as a dictatorship of the majority

No. If you had even the most basic theoretical background on the subject you’d know how wrong this statement is. Yet people like you dangerously believe this surface level third grade understanding of democratic systems somehow makes them an expert.

Perhaps consider watching the recording or reading what actually happened before typing a massive rant claiming others are wrong?

LLMs can’t describe themselves or their internal layers. You can’t ask ChatGPT to describe it’s censorship.

Instead, you’re getting a reply based on how other sources in the training set described how LLMs work, plus the tone appropriate to your chat.

To be fair, smart background removal was a feature from Picasa over a decade ago. We just didn’t call everything “AI” to make shareholders happy.

Whenever we suggest starting to test sperm for known genetics conditions, somebody starts screaming eugenics, which then halts the debate and we end up not testing for things we absolutely can test for.

Exactly - the platform owner usually can do everything. Can a third party crawler? I don’t know

We do have fairly precise numbers of how much energy it takes to train the models using the best GPUs available, and slightly less precise but also reasonable estimates on how much it costs to run servers for users to toy around with.

It’s extremely high, but not different from what it would be like if these were cloud gaming or 3D rendering servers.

The main point is usually is it worth it and that’s highly subjective.

It’s also very hard to keep track of licenses for text based content on the internet. Do most users know what’s the default licence for their comments on Reddit? How about Facebook? How about the comments section of a random blog? How about the title of their Medium post? And so on

You’re correct about most trees not following your typical seasonal variance.

You’re incorrect about this meaning we don’t deal with significant amounts of leaves and flowers. Search for Handroanthus images, then imagine one on each sidewalk, and imagine all their flowers on the ground.

I’m Brazilian. As one can imagine, we do have a lot of leaves, being a tropical country and all.

I have not seen a leaf blower in my entire life, and I don’t understand the obsession with them.

Some pop-sci YouTube channels also heavily started promoting nuclear energy during the same time period

not every country wants foreigners It’s their right to dictate that

That’s an extremely complicated philosophical argument that goes beyond two simple sentences, I hope you realise

Brazil had an entire presidential coup based around the same logic.
