They stated they didn’t break piracy laws because they downloaded a shitload of books for their LLM and didn’t seed any.

Torrents are downloaded by “leeches” and put out for download by “seeders”

A proper ratio of what you downloaded to what you allow others to download should be 1:1 if you’re not a dick. (1gb downloaded means you need to upload 1gb to other users for 1:1) but if you don’t seed at ALL or if you only seed bare minimum to keep downloading things, you’re called a Leech, and derogatorily. Because you didn’t seed.

So they’re stating “we didn’t break the law, we’re just leeches!”

They had an app store?

The problem is not the price.

Old people and overreacting to normal things because new ideas are scary and confusing

Name a more iconic duo

You heard it here folks, you shouldn’t question something unless you are directly affected by it.

I haven’t logged into Facebook in over a decade, can’t even remember the login email. Can’t be arsed to jump through hoops to ask for it to be deleted.

Can’t imagine why anyone would willingly make a fb page today.

Oooh, nice interrobang.

I mean, what were they going to do, say “yes we keep slaves, next question please”?

There’s several of us in Ohio, what if we toss Mike dewine and his ilk to Kentucky?

must’ve read David vs. Goliath and sided with the Goliath.

Bold of you to assume that they can read, or that they have read the Bible.

In my experience not even “devout Christians” do that last one.

A person can dream.

Make every company that has a whistleblower die in ANY way face extremely heavy penalties including, but not limited to: 75% taxing on all income for a period of time as part of a fine, jail time for executives, board members, and potentially large shareholders, potential nationalization of the company, etc

Make every company afraid to have a whistleblower die. Make them want to hire private security and pay for all health expenses to ensure the person lives because the alternative is the company ceases to exist in any way that benefits those in charge.

As always, some people see Jurassic Park as inspiration and wonder why nobody gave Hammond a chance.

The rest of us know that Dr. Malcolm was right from the start.

surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

… Right?

I see their junk at every thrift store and flea market in Ohio.

I legitimately thought they went out of business.

I mean, starting in January, the US is an unreliable partner to everyone…

It’s insane to me that entire fucking countries governments act no different than literal children.

This is stereotypical school yard bully tactics. It’s so fucking stupid. People point to specific sad stories as reasons they lost faith in humanity… I point to every country on the planet acting like children any time they have a slight disagreement, or decide they want something someone else has.

K was right. A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals.

Fun fact! To make a super duper effective cleaning solution, all you have to do is mix ammonia and bleach! Make sure you do it in a small enclosed, dark room in order to ensure the solution binds together properly.
