  • Not a crypto hater so much as the idea of it goes.

    It’s a lot like the rest of the internet: anonymous things moving and interacting can be unpredictable. From what I’ve seen on the dark net, I’d assume we will see the same extremes manifesting in transactions; that is that it will be very helpful for crimes, but also very helpful for ppl who need weed medically but can’t get it legally, ppl who need money because they are pursued politically, or ppl in other dire circumstances.

    It’s all very complex, and I think there is a legit good reason for it. That said, I’m not the person to judge what outweighs, I just know it’s far more complex than “crypto bad” or “crypto yes”. Let’s just hope whoever will be in this position is far knowledgeable in that regard than me.

    Sincerely, a small developer and 3d artist.


  • I might be ignorant, but where’s the relevant case law making copyright apply to AI?

    I know that copyright definitely applies if you record things 1:1. I also know we’re on the brink of getting new laws regarding AI. But from what I know there’s still nothing that a lower court can safely rely on. And I’m talking EU, as well as US.

    If I’m wrong please tell me, I’m excited to learn about what I missed.






  • There are a lot of reasons for this general trend, but let me add my two cents to make a case for the sudden influx of user-opposed changes:

    I don’t have a source for this, but I remember that Linus spoke about this on the LTT WAN-Show. Basically, abunch of big silicon valley investors are pulling out of all of the big platforms, therefore leaving them with a huge hole in their profitability. This means, that right now a lot of them are scrambling to scrape together more money over time, so all of those platforms are sustainable.

    Obviously this has to observed in conjunction with all of those are trends that are already mentioned by other comments, but this gives more basis as to why now, and why to this extent.

    If someone else knows what I’m talking about please add quotes and sources because I don’t like the good old ‘dude trust me’ guarantee one bit.
