  • OpenAI Just Gave Away the Entire Game

  • I agreed with op, then i read your astute response and now I don't know which position is correct.

    Thinking it through as i type... If you photoshopped an image of Tom Hanks giving a thumbs up to your product, that would clearly be illegal, but if you hired an exact flawless lookalike impersonator of Tom Hanks and had him pose for a picture with a thumbs up to your product, would that be illegal? I think it might still be illegal, because you purposely hired a lookalike impersonator to gain the benefit of Tom Hanks' brand.

    I think the law on AI should match what the law says about impersonators. If hiring an indistinguishable celebrity impersonator to use in media is legal, then ai soundalikes should be legal too, and vice versa.

  • There's no official order. Different sources have them in different orders

  • People want 'dumbphones'. Will companies make them?

    Jump

  • As the actual headline itself says, this is a niche. The editorialized lemmy headline makes it sound like much more than that. Dumb phones still exist, but not many people choose to buy them

  • If a private citizen from a western country decided to go to Iran against all of the highest level warnings, then i have to sympathy for them.

    Why is coloring your face considered racist?

    Jump

  • Yup this is the answer. In the past people had put on black makeup and did horribly awful racist caricatures of black people. As a result putting on black makeup itself came to mean you're doing racist stuff. IMO i think that far in the future if racism is eliminated then people will be able to put on dark makeup and it'll be seen as fine. But none of us reading this sentence are gonna be alive to see that point

  • That list is fascinating. abc123 is near the top, then like 10 more below that is a1b2c3, and then much further down is 123abc. What?

  • Google Is Worth $2 Trillion Now

  • The point is that if you're doing anything besides direct bartering of physical goods, then you're trading in something that has basically no actual inherent value. Paper bills, gold, whatever, doesn't matter. The vast majority of its value comes from our mutual agreement that it has value as a trading device.

  • What do you mean by "real"? The paper is literally worthless by itself. It's only worth anything because we've all agreed on it. It's the same exact situation with the digital zeros and ones.

  • Google Is Worth $2 Trillion Now

    Jump

  • Paper money is often backed up by nothing. It's a little scrap of paper that only has value because we've all agreed it has value.

    You make bricks.

    I need your bricks, but you don't need wool.

    How do i buy your bricks?

  • LPT you can freeze lemons. The texture might change, but you can still use it in some cooking applications and juicing it will still be fine. (After defrosting of course)

  • This garbage structure is the worst blemish on New York in recent history. It's ugly, conceptually empty, and an abhorrent monument to corruption and anti-humanity.

  • You're being too pedantic about wording. The right answer is to make it most safe while minimizing the chance of it accidentally firing. Simply moving it to a locked room down the hallway is the best way to achieve that.

  • Doing anything to the gun is probably a bad idea, even if you have experience with firearms. This gun came from a gang member, it could be in a very janky altered condition that makes it act unpredictably. If you're going to try to disarm it anyway then you should still move it outside first before attempting that just in case it malfunctions and fires while you're trying to manipulate it
