Someone somewhere is already planning how they will get people to work around the clock this way, and someone else somewhere is probably desperate enough to feed themselves or their family that they’ll take it when offered.
Well fuck all those artists and writers who made the original works then I guess. Licensing is impractical.
2·1 year agoOh yeah that would piss me off.
My last epson experience was about 5 years ago, (edit: holy cow maybe more like 10+ years ago. why does time go so fast?) so they may have gone downhill, appreciate the update. I had 2 in a row and both were good with Linux support and general lack of fussiness.
OK man. Doesn’t bother me if you don’t buy one. This is the longest I’ve kept a printer without throwing it away in disgust in a long time. Companies like to brand things with catchy names. shrug
Thirded. Get an Brother inkvestment model. No bullshit, it just does your bidding, like a printer should. And the ink lasts a very long time.
Yes, everyone says get a B&W laser printer. If that fits your needs do so. We have kids that want or need to print in color fairly often, and color laser was out of the question last time we purchased.
Brother is the now only brand I look at after decades of buying consumer printers. If absolutely forced not to buy Brother, I’d go with Epson. I used to love Canon, but each model started incorporating more and more bullshit, and I found their ink to be both expensive and short lived. HP is the king of printer bullshit, but Canon seems to want to sit on their court in recent years.
So then we as a society aren’t ready to untangle the mess of our infancy in the digital age. ChatGPT isn’t something we must have at all costs, it’s something we should have when we can deploy it while still respecting the rights of people who have made the content being used to train it.
The reinstatement came after notable users such as George Galloway, a former member of the British Parliament, called out Musk for banning the accounts.
(Update at the top of the article)
Sorry, my joke generating subroutine has not been updated since the time that the rocket scientist idiom you mention was popularized.
😁
But the idiom isn’t “it’s not AI” it’s “it’s not rocket science.” 😉😁
Maybe the smartest people in the room are the ones we least expect.
I mean, they are a bunch of rocket scientists. That’s the group everyone has expected to be the smartest people in the room for about a century. 😁
Are we allowed to say he’s gone mask off yet?
I wonder what their punishment will be. Do you suppose they’ll need to dig change out of only one sofa, or two?
Garak might have had something to say about that.

I couldn’t help but think of this (nearly 20 year old) video in response to that comment. 😁
You think the platform is the widget, I think the content is the widget. I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree.
In that case I’d be selling something made by the entity giving me commission - what people want and pay for is something made by someone other than me. In this case the people creating the content are the same people drawing the subscribers, so it’s more accurate to say substack takes a cut of their subscription income than to say substack pays them.
If I stop selling widgets the company still has the exact same widgets and can get anyone else to sell them. If a renowned nazi writer (bleh) takes their content to another platform, substack no longer has that content (or the author’s presence on their platform) to profit from.
I didn’t realize that. That’s disheartening.
