For image generation it does. They give negative prompts like “wonky”, “creepy”, and “ugly”, and the image generator evaluates how well the generated image matches those prompts, and produces images opposite those parameters.

Some poor artist in the training data not only had their work stolen to train the AI, but also had it labeled ugly and wonky.

You can’t. Most apps resist being backed up. Seedvault is the most often recommended backup tool for Android, but it only backs up apps that allow themself to be backed up. You’ll get your SMS messages, call history, contacts, and files visible in file manager. But most apps, and almost all proprietary apps will not have their app data backed up.

In a world where Flock cameras are this frequent, a license plate is illegal compelled speech.

You’d be surprised what kinds of things have firmware (although maybe not, if you work in IoT). A normal dumb fridge, a normal dumb dishwasher, most ovens, and definitely microwaves will have firmware. Even if they have no interface to update it. In some cases, the firmware was written using a chip programmer before the chip was soldered in. But there’s still firmware. Any appliance with a clock will have it, because otherwise, you have to implement a clock in a CPLD or discrete logic gates or something. A microcontroller is just cheaper.

I hope he is imprisoned for his crimes and lives in jail for years to come. He’ll be forbidden visitors, same as other gangsters are not allowed to meet with other gang members. Eventually, all of the Republican politicians who supported this administration will hopefully be imprisoned for life.

Nothing sent by DHL, UPS or Fedex is mail.

There was another reason: Employer-provided health insurance is not taxed as income in the US. This is the main reason healthcare is tied to employment.

A gang of armed thugs trespassing on private property don’t have a right to self defense.

It depends on the type of work. The proper length of copyright for books or films should long, about 20 to 25 years, because they remain relevant for longer. But software should be shorter, about 7 years.

The purpose of copyright is to enhance the public domain, not to create a business model. How well is 75 year old software enhancing the public domain? If any software has even entered the public domain through copyright expiration, what use is that software today? At best it’s an archeological curiosity, but more likely it’s no use at all.

“Letter” size is standardized as ANSI A, “Tabloid” as ANSI B, and something that could be folded twice to get letter would be ANSI C. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size#Standardized_American_paper_sizes

These paper sizes are used in engineering.

It’s been called MacOS since 1997

I usually leave comments enabled on my reviews. But any negative review usually attracts a torrent of verbal abuse from fans of the game, and then I have to disable comments.

I think I’ve found the beef source.

I’ve had to use these before, when I lived in a dormitory that had frequent false fire alarms. The fire exit stairs took us to a series of one-way locking doors, ending with a “Do not exit, alarm will sound” door. At that point, even if we felt like it might be a false alarm, we had no choice but to go through the door. The first several times, it set off a weak alarm, but did not appear to be wired into anything else in the building. After a few times, it stopped going off, I assume because its battery died. It’s nobody’s job to replace those batteries, so they stay dead.

scalpers bought copies on Steam priced cheaper in certain regions. If you release a game on Valve’s store and don’t set the price in each region individually, universal pricing creates discrepancies where this can happen. These were then being sold on less regulated marketplaces.

This could be prevented by not doing regional price discrimination.

PTSD: Hell yeah [++++++++++]

Nobody likes PTSD. This is a parody of being pro-war.

The flags are facing the correct direction. On US military uniforms, on the right shoulder, flags are mirrored as if the person was walking forward and the flag was blowing behind them.
