If Google takes money to host an ad that’s malware, they should be able to be prosecuted for it.

This is different than simply hosting community content that they can’t reasonably moderate. They’re being given money to distribute these ads, so they can afford to moderate them.

Which should be easy anyway. Ads shouldn’t be able to install third-party shit from the advertisers on user computers. Google can easily restrict what can be included on an ad package.

If they were shoved in the mailbox without postage it’s definitely illegal.

She used to be a Country Music darling, and a lot of right-wing Country people still feel like they own her like back when they had her as an underage sex symbol.

PS3 is the trickiest. They had that weird Cell architecture which is more difficult to emulate than simply “less-powerful x86” emulation required for more-recent consoles.

Was that the first one that had M Bison as a playable character?

Yeah. I’ve noticed the new generation coming into the workplace can’t do shit on a computer.

They’ve grown up on apps that have simple interfaces and limited options. Give them the freedom and power of a workstation and you’ll find they never learned to learn real software.

RFK just won an ruling that kept absentee ballots from getting sent out in North Carolina because his name is on the ballots, so now the voting can’t start until the courts get everything worked out and all the ballots get reprinted if he wins the appeal.

People are literally being kept from voting right now because of him, and that benefits Trump.

If he wants to flee the country I’ll buy him a 1-way ticket right now.

To help fight bot disinformation, I think there needs to be an international treaty that requires all AI models/bots to disclose themselves as AI when prompted using a set keyphrase in every language, and that API access to the model be contingent on paying regain tests of the phrase (to keep bad actors from simply filtering out that phrase in their requests to the API).

It wouldn’t stop the nation-state level bad actors, but it would help prevent people without access to their own private LLMs from being able to use them as effectively for disinformation.

There’s no requirement for a federal judge to be a licensed attorney. She could be disbarred and keep her position.

The trans community and it’s supporters know they’re being attacked by the right and needs to vote Dem, so they’ve got that locked in. What political advantage is there in making it a campaign issue for the Dems when the GOP has done all the work already?

It’s worked for him so far.

This isn’t unique to AI.

80% of new businesses fail, period.

No. That’s just Google trying to pester you into using Chrome.

I loved how the Trump team was like “We have video proof we did nothing wrong.”

First off: I’d love for you to provide that proof.

Second: The fact that you were filming kinda proves you were in the wrong.

I will never not love the footage of him at the DNC legitimately trying his hardest to argue with a 12yo child only to be absolutely steamrolled by that kid.

Mike is exceptionally dumb, and that kid was exceptionally bright, and the combination was just beautiful.

I see like 10 a day. I work in an enclave city for the uberrich where the average new home being built costs what I make in a century (and I make pretty good money money), so we’ve got lots of them.

I’ve seen a bunch getting paint jobs. The matte black ones look like what scifi Nazi gestapo would drive, but all of the paint jobs look better than the bare metal. There’s a brushed-gunmetal one that I think is a pretty attractive compared to the rest. The vehicle is still ugly, but it’s less-ugly with a good paint job.

When she was A Democratic Congressional Representative her top donors were Kremlin-linked interests.

When the intelligence agencies were saying a candidate in the 2020 Democratic primary was a Russian agent they were talking about Tulsi Gabbard. Members of both parties were calling her a traitor. It wasn’t until she started working with the Republicans that they stopped criticizing her treason.

She tried suing Clinton over saying she was a Russian agent, but she lost because truth is an absolute defense against defamation.

She’s literally dined with Putin and General Flynn, who was found guilty of colluding with Russia but was pardoned by Trump.

She’s a traitor and should be imprisoned.

Gabbard is literally a Russian agent, though. It’s not hyperbole.

The grudge had existed for decades in 2016. It didn’t start then.
