  • Good comedians are often people who complain about life's bullshit in a funny way, so why not?

  • Catholic Church To Excommunicate Priests for Following New US State Law

  • I agree - and I would hope any advice given by a priest would cover this - but if it becomes a mandatory thing where does it end. Should priests report abortions in states that have made then illegal? How about sheltering an undocumented immigrant, or any number of things that the current administration might decide they don't like?

  • You miss the part where the copyright owner did not assign them the rights to use the material for such a purpose, and yes most copyright does cover a ton of stuff like retransmission, reproduction, public production and a bunch of other shit which is all separate license. It's not so simple as "they did what a human does" because even the WAYS a human uses said material is limited under the terms of the copyright

  • a) An AI is not a person. We do not WANT an AI to be regarded as equal to a person under law. That's a terrible idea

    b) How is that AI training material being generated? Did they buy copies of every copyrighted song and every movie by every artist to include in the training data? If it's music and streamed, are they paying the artist royalties based on every "play" the AI is processing during training the same as of a human played the song over and over again to learn a long? How about sheet music? Because if a PERSON is learning from training material, the license for sheet music and training materials is different than a playable copy of the same work.

    I'm willing to bet that the AI companies didn't even pay for the regular copies of works much less ones licensed for use as training materials for humans, but it didn't matter because an AI is an advanced algorithm and NOT A HUMAN.

  • This isn't about priests abusing kids (though that's definitely a recurring issue as well), it's about people who have done so confessing such to a priest.

    I'm not religious so don't really have any stake in this, but it's interesting that it is specifically about child sex abuse and not other major crimes such as rape, murder etc. That makes me worried as "for children" is often used as a testing ground for stuff that will be expanded upon later, and there's a lot of stuff people likely confess - supposedly under strict confidence - to their religious figures.

  • The version I recall was once if those Flash animations with a cute squirrel or whatever saying something... but it was really quiet so you'd need to turn up the volume to hear. Then partway through it changed to sex stuff and blasted out in a voice like a monster truck announcer

    "anal sex dot com, all anal, all the time!"

  • Liquid Trees

    Jump

  • I still want the trees outdoors, but this would be cool for indoor spaces. Each mall or parking lot could have a solar panel overhead and slime-tanks to produce useful byproducts.

    Maybe it could be mixed with and aquaculture like fish and sea plants to create cool scenery

  • TIL that the characters of Vasquez in Aliens (1986) and the stepmother in Terminator 2 (1991) were played by the same actor, Jenette Goldstein, apparently donning brownface for the earlier role

  • SJ in Ghost seemed particularly fucked up given that all the original content was Japanese

  • I swapped the entire school computers to linux mint

    Jump

  • A lot of people use automation systems etc. They work, but don't provide the same GUI/reports you might see from RHS or Windows patching systems.

    I too was surprised at how sparse or apparently kludged-together the pickings were.

  • There are many ways to skin the cat for centralized login in Linux, including using Samba-AD or just LDAP.

    Patching is IMO less fun. Landscape can work for Ubuntu but it's finicky, and I haven't really found anything satisfactory (FOSS) for patch management if multiple Debian systems. Setting up "unattended-upgrades" does tend to handle most of it but that doesn't give centralized control or visibility.

  • That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing

    Jump

  • Yeah it "works" on LG TVs but only if I don't use SSL, possibly due to the (perfectly valid) LetsEncrypt certificate in my case.

    That's not a huge deal for my LAN access but it's still pretty dumb. It would be nice if more devices properly supported it.

  • Virginia Giuffre, Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein accuser, dies by suicide

    Jump

  • Mine, no, but I definitely know people who went from very happy with their lives to deep depression in a shorter period then that.

    That doesn't necessarily equal suicidal tendencies in all cases but there's certainly common ground been the two.

  • Cool. Let's go with criminal impersonation, defamation, and slander/libel instead them!

  • What's the point in getting married?

    Jump

  • Yeah. My buddy lived with his SO. They had kids together. I believe they did have plans to get married but there were financial/planning considerations. At the time, the house was in his name.

    He died unexpectedly and without warning due to a previously unknown medical condition. I don't believe he had a W&T.

    The paperwork she had to deal with - much of which would have been not required had they been married - was horrendous, especially anything bank related. The bank also seemed to be doing their best to fuck her over in regards to the family home. It was a nasty ordeal.
