  • Fair enough. Wish we'd get a reason something was removed though.

  • Eh, I have dyslexia and trust my autocorrect too much. But I do know what it's actually referring to and how it can be removed in the Senate. I'll take misspelling a word I don't commonly type over being ignorant of how it works to block progressive laws from being passed.

    If I'm wrong about something other than a spelling feel free to point it out.

  • You realize Biden did an executive order for student loans because he couldn't get the votes in Congress right? This is what the supreme court blocked.

    Removing the filibuster rule (something they CAN do with a 51 vote majority) would have made it possible to pass laws with a simple majority of 51 votes. They had 53 Democrats sitting in the Senate and a majority in the House when Biden took office.

    It's funny that you needed this explained to you to understand why I was talking about the filibuster. You are so uneducated that you couldn't even understand what I was talking about. So instead of using your brain you instead concluded "what does this have to do with student debt? Am I stupid? No! It must be him!"

    Here, you might need to watch this while the adults talk.

  • I'm literally worried about buying a new car. It was bad enough when I did in 2019 getting a car with actual buttons and still half the basic features I have to tap a screen for. It's never, never felt comfortable like my old Mazda3 2012 or Honda Civic 2003 did. I just want fucking buttons and knobs man. I also hate all of the "safety features". Which are just essentially "feel safer while using your phone and driving" features that all the idiots on the road use them as. Everyone can see your lane assist correcting you every 5 seconds Debra! You're gonna kill someone.

  • Boo mods

  • To the common person. Maybe. But China seems to be pretty willing to fuck with America for the time being and keeps creating more efficient and more application specific AI models (while the US is just chasing some dream of a generalized AI that is hitting a brick wall hard).

    I think the actual useful AI models we use in 10 years will be much more like what China is focusing on; and a generalized AI will not actually be achievable.

  • When the bar is so low that the crack addict fail son has a better moral compass than most every politician and rich oligarch.

    When the sex tape leaks and you're proud of the women he's with being clearly at least over 30.

    Dude is a disconnected rich crack addicted fail son. But he's Americas disconnected rich crack addicted fail son with no reason to think he's a pedophile. He might as well be Jesus Christ himself if we're judging on a curve.

  • The fillabuster is a procedural rule invented by the Senate. It's not law mate.

  • When the Republicans vote to end the current fillabuster rules to pass stuff that hurts Americans all power will be given to the Republicans. They will go nuclear and have no one to stop them short of rewriting the constitution. And you know who defends against laws that violate the Constitution? The supreme court does. The same supreme court that overturned the "superprecident" of Roe v. Wade. This will all happen before the elections in November.

    When that happens; I hope you remember it and think "hmmm, maybe that guy knew what he was talking about". The Democrats could have done this when they had majority in the Senate. And now the Republicans are doing it to literally nationalize elections and fund ICE standing outside every polling station.

    The only reason the Republicans haven't ended the fillabuster yet is because the Democrats literally keep passing all the shit they want. Hell, they might not even need to end the fillabuster because the Democrats are so submissive to them.

    Now the Democrats could have ended the fillabuster. They could have passed the Green new deal, student loan forgiveness, and things that were actually good. Instead, they use it as an excuse to get nothing good done and try to go other routes like Biden did and got blocked by the supreme court.

    Because I do know what I'm talking about. The Biden administration could have passed student loan forgiveness day one and a massive infrastructure bill. They could have had 4 years of helping the working class and solidifying their support like FDR. They didn't. They spent all their time funding a genocide instead.

    When you get so use to nothing good being done you'll defend 0.85% of something being done as if it was 100%.

  • At some point I hope people like you realize that the Democrats don't get things done because they don't want to get things done.

    They sure enjoy getting things done for wars, genocide, corporate profits, and ICE funding though. Weird how that works.

    They're always "forced" into working with Republicans to fund stuff that hurts Americans. But, for some reason are always blocked by Republicans on things that would help Americans. So odd how that works.

  • Yeah. Unfortunately laws are written to protect companies and ensure those same companies can use the same law to punish individuals

  • Don't hate AI because copyright is being violated. Copyright was just invented and expanded to protect corporate profits. It has never and will never be something to protect artists.

    They will do the same here. Copyright will be changed to favor corporate profits. The only thing that will happen is that Disney and other big media corporations want a piece of the pie. No law favouring copyright protection with AI will EVER be for artists benefits.

    This is just corporate infighting. They'll definitely say that it's to "protect artists". It's not. Copyright never has been about protecting artists.

  • Put a YOLO object detection training script on your PC. Boom! All my NAS is for training AI.

    Like, I know that's not how laws work. Laws work to protect rich corporations and profits. But that's the logic we got here.

  • Ok. Any Joe with a GPU can train an AI. So I guess copyright is dead. You see my Unraid with 64TB of copyrighted material. All for AI training I'm doing.

  • OOP is not Joe Rogan. You can't "platform" Twitter.

  • The billionaire that sucks profits from half of the internet infrastructure through Microsoft Azure rapes children. I get the point. Fuck Elon. But we've reached the point of nearly all internet infrastructure being owned by billionaire pedophiles. I'd direct the hatred at them and not the people using the infrastructure. We're not defeating this level of garbage by using blue sky links.

  • Fuck AI @lemmy.world

    Great Video on the exploitation and theft of artists labor through AI.
