Not everything needs to be rushed. Sometimes the build up makes the conclusion better. Slow the F down.

Honestly why your comment is so highly upvoted is blowing my mind, although I mean you no ill-will by that.

Ironically, both can be right, upvote wise.

It shouldn’t take 20 panels to tell a joke.

Seems like it’s not telling a joke, but instead making a statement about Humanity.

As someone from the west coast of The States, I can’t say I’ve ever seen a hot drink vending machine in real life. At least not here where I live.

We used to have them, but I haven’t seen them for over a decade now.

If you remember the Terminator 2 movie, the scene where a security guard gets a cup of coffee, those are the kind of dispensers that used to exist.

(The link above shows the scene I’m speaking of. I tried to embed the URL into this comment so the picture itself would display, but I couldn’t figure it out.)

It will definitely be interesting to see how all of the shakes out, legally wise.

If there are copyright experts that want to weigh in, I’d be interested to hear their opinion.

Myself as well. It’s a new frontier, legally.

I’m putting them here just in case. Only costs me a line carriage and a Ctrl+V.

Seeing that you have done that made me start to think about doing it myself, as I definitely feel there are days when I’m being shadowed by AI training mechanisms.

But if it doesn’t make any difference legally as a deterrent, then I wouldn’t bother.

If you were playing Choplifter in elementary school, you’re really not THAT old.

If you had to load Choplifter into your Apple II to play it with a cassette tape recorder, then yes, you are old, you are a first gen computer game player.

Apology for hijacking your comment, but I wanted to ask you a question about the Creative Commons link you put at the end of your comment.

Are you doing that because of people who may use your comments to train AI reasons?

If so, do you think legally that covers it, since it’s a link, and not just the text itself?

In other words, would an AI trainer have to drill into the link before your comment is covered by that clause?

A bad take from a good person. I like your history so i want you to think about this…. …

Just wanted to drop a comment to let you know I really appreciated reading all of your comment, as it was well written, diplomatic and direct, worthy of conversation. Well done.

A bad take from a good person. I like your history so i want you to think about this…Don’t get mad at or direct hate towards passionate people. The world needs them to make stuff for the rest of us schlubs who spread our attention thin. Besides, isn’t some of that annoyance, just a little of that prickly feeling, jealousy?

I get the feeling you’re expressing here, i do. I’ve felt it myself. I personally have wondered why, and done some self-reflection and considered maybe this is my answer. If it makes sense then maybe it is your answer too. Whatever you’re reason for feeling this way, the next thing to ponder is is whether expressing this emotion to others has a practical use for them to hear, out for you to say.

This one is a feeling that is useless to everyone especially yourself.

it is one to recognize as a failing and to work on, not to express in a forum as an emotion to be proud of

Genocide requires intent.

Is that actually, legally, true?

In other words, does the word identify the cause, or the effect?

Can he really be tried for genocide? It’s hard to say, but I’d say not.

How so? The facts seem self-evident.

It’s all moot anyway. If you have no means or intention to enforce a law, does it really exist?

You can still classify someone though in such a way, in hopes that in some future time you can enforce the law on them, having being previously judged as a criminal.

Hey, it works for you and that’s fine ☺️ 😉.

Be better for Humanity though if people supported corporations that made better products than those that made worse ones.

CosmicCleric, to asklemmy in Mickey Mouse is now public domain (Steamboat Willie specifically). What do you think we will see this year?
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

But I don’t really see a lot of actual utility in the Steamboat Willy character

Could he be used to sell riverboat cruises?

Mickey Mouse starring in Steamboat Willy’s Death Boat Race 2000, Electric Boogaloo.

CosmicCleric, to piracy in Prime is adding ads to their streaming service
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

This is such a weird way of announcing/implementing a $3/month increase for Prime video by Amazon, and a lot more destructive PR-wise too.
