Last summer, Meta scored a key victory in this case, as the court concluded that using pirated books to train its Llama LLM qualified as fair use, based on the arguments presented in this case.

This is so fucked. It’s literally legal for an AI to read pirated books to learn, but humans are not allowed to do this. AIs have more rights than we do already.

I see a dog with really long ears.

That’s why I said without DRM. Some games on steam don’t have DRM, as far as I understand. Otherwise GoG.

Agreed, isn’t that what I just said? 😅

That’s not what buying means or at least not the “buying” I am talking about. I mean I give some amount of money and I receive a download of the purchased material, free of DRM. There is no subscription involved. Like Steam (with no DRM) or GoG, but for movies and shows instead of games.

Okay I gotta disagree partially on the third panel. I’d much rather have the option of purchasing individual movies or shows than having a subscription. Like, imagine we had Steam but instead of games, it was shows and movies? That’d be great. Imagine the sales! PatientWatchers amirite?

Unfortunately it’s rarely possible to actually purchase, and definitely not without any DRM. So the third panel should really say “This show is not available for purchase” or only mention renting or specify that it’s with loads of DRM or whatever.

Is this some american thing? I’ve never heard of anyone having a different name for a language class, that just seems odd to me. Your name is your name, doesn’t matter what language you’re speaking.

It’s based on lemmy-ui which is AGPL-licensed, so I’d think it would have to be released somewhere?

Law itself

purely legal conformation standpoint

It’s still stupid even if it’s required by law.

I think making the standard library larger in a composable way would be great. If we actually uplifted “blessed crates” from a loose concept to an actual thing in the build system, it would make Rust much easier to adopt for those who are not already well versed in the ecosystem.

Anyone else have trouble reading that headline? Title gore if you ask me.

“Abuse” was maybe the wrong word, but my point is just that maybe liking and disliking shouldn’t be the same as voting up and down.

There are some platforms that offer emoji reactions. That at least gives a bit more nuanced of a reaction than just “up” or “down” - but it is not clear how you would use emoji reactions to sort posts. The good thing about upvotes and downvotes is that it’s a very easy signal for which posts should be at the top, and which should be sorted below.

That’s fine but does that action always correspond to wanting to upvote or downvote the post? I guess maybe? Lemmy at least assumes so.

When are you meant to use them then?

Boost (if its the same as on Mastodon) is indeed entirely different. It’s an “Announce” activity, which is akin to sharing or “reblogging” the post. This is not treated as an upvote in lemmy as far as I know.

Admin of Feddit.dk. We try not to use non-EU suppliers and I don’t like the idea of depending so fully on something like Cloudflare. I could see us using an EU equivalent but don’t really see the need right now.

Yea makes total sense - so you’d go for the logical yyyy-mm-dd format then, to fit with how you speak the date? Right? 😅

No. “Hello, world!” or you’re doing it wrong.
