You are still missing the point.

My issue is putting my work on the free web is not a free license to vacuum it up. There is no consent.

The umbridge I have is there is no way currently to know whether OpenAI has used your, or anyone's content, and where from. This is the fundamental issue I have -- how do I find out?

I'm fully aware of the implications of replicant copies and the conversations around authenticity. Walter Benjamin discussed this in 1935. https://www.amazon.com/Work-Art-Age-Mechanical-Reproduction/...

I appreciate the response and I'll take it one step further.

If I don't ask these questions and put good faith effort towards these concerns, then there's an exploration that wasn't executed and an outcome that will never happen. Discovery is okay.

I do still believe I have a right to pick and choose where my talents are used. I've spent a decade plus avoiding working for any smoking brands, why can't I avoid my work being used to train military models?

It definitely isn't. I expected most of the responses I've read. But thought and perspective needs not exist in a bubble. I hope my question helps illuminate the concerns people outside of a tech sphere might have with this growing consumption machine.

Well how else should it be taken? A thought, information, bytes are all semantically representing different shifting goalposts of what I was clearly not talking about. Copyright works that involve creation beyond a 'thought'. To derive it down to such is wrong and explicitly ignoring the point.

This is incredibly insulting as I have no desire to control ownership of thoughts. What is otherwise involved, is production, intent and actually, yes, copyright. I have a case if the work I have released ends up in every Hilton Hotel Lobby.

My concern extends beyond myself and to the countless photographers I hire who relinquish their rights to us. I have a duty to protect their moral requirements too... As a human, you know?

This is wild.

That's as maybe, but my contributions shouldn't be.

I really don't think this is true. I've been working with image model training for object detection whilst I convert a Delta 3D Printer into an AI guided fuse finder... enough just to learn... Enough to know you need real photographs and real video to train anything that needs to see like a real human.

Yeah this quickly went from 'additional helpful tool in the kit' to 'probably should use something else first'

As a consumer all I hear is billions arguing with billions about how they're going to fuck me out of one more dollar this week, then one more next. It's really helping smear any good faith I have with brands to the degree that once again, resentment creeps up a few more percentage points.

Additionally, the new found wars over these 'platform taxes' for these companies tells me a fulcrum was met and hatches are being battened.

That I don't know, but I assume there's a balance that involves wanting to shorten the window of return where you avoid potentially giving the user enough time to decide to return. People are faster to do than undo. I'm faster spending than I am returning.

I find it quite sad that you have 14 days max to return, though I appreciate why from a business perspective. Why extend that risk?

But as a consumer, I absolutely do not have time to fully test/sit with this device in enough contexts to find my issues with it. Could be a month before I can finally get to it, or the software finally reaches a point that it reveals the flaws and my mini mortgage just turned into a paperweight

I consider it to be whatever the clever people who design this stuff decide, so that my average use of a vehicle in all potential climates and conditions is factored. Why do I care? My driving habits and conditions haven't changed, nor has anyone else. Things might be slightly warmer, colder, steeper or shallower, but they aren't an infinite high grade against the strongest headwind on earth. That's the kind of lazy talk I'd expect to hear from an engineer who doesn't want to solve the problem and instead would rather see me as a customer suffer.

Just lie to me and tell me the worst case scenario. If the customer focused lie puts you in a marketing bind because the truth is you can't meet what you're alleging to sell... That's your problem. As a customer, I don't need the anxiety of estimations being off by almost 100%. What use is that for me? It's only use is to minimally meet your marketing book of lies to sell technology that isn't quite there yet and put the onus, expense, and anxiety of this transition onto the customer.

Put it this way, I've never ended a journey and been annoyed I had more miles left in the tank than it promised. But you can bet the opposite would have be stranded and screaming on a highway somewhere instead. Why do you want your customers to retain that angst against your brand? Cars of all things are long term, emotional investments. Screwing one customer and they don't stay quiet.

Either way, we're car beta testers now.

Banning a Flipper Zero for Car Thefts is like banning a BB Gun for Firearm Deaths.... You're targeting the wrong device lol.

edit: Further perspective: You need something that can perform a relay attack. You need someone with a powerful enough antenna to find the remote inside someone's home and relay it to a person near the car. This involves at least 2x CC1101's

> As you can see, small embedded antennas are very inefficient, however convenient. In all cases here, the antenna radiated less than 1% of the available RF power. Using a full sized high efficiency antenna has the potential to increase TRP by at least 20 dB, which is 100 times more power or about a 10x increase in communications range.

This is the type of device still available, far more useful and powerful than a banned FZ: https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-...

You have zero expectation of privacy both legally regarding flying and contractually with society for embracing fame with your fortune. I'm sorry, but this angle never sticks.

Please, do sue. Please, do continue to be a conglomerate of intense and acrid desperation, happily hoping to be relevant at all costs. Please, bore us of your antics, and please, be done so we can move on. I wish the era of this individuals appearance in every avenue of life lasted as long as her surname. Alas, it hasn't, and I despair as I look once again in the other direction to give as little attention as possible and somehow, there she is too.

Mozilla hasn't a leg to stand on. And it can eat it regarding Pocket and new 'enabled' ad related settings, when last I changed anything, was to disable them all. Sneaky, annoying, every company does it. It makes me hate my computer. I look at the software trying to trick me and I resent it.

I resent computing when these companies think they know better than what I want.

The frightening part of this story for me is the lack of 'evidence' that any friends screenshotted/shared this information.

So if it was sent in a 'private snapchat' group -- and he's now potentially footing a 90k bill? For what? Incredible

I’ll take and invest in anything manufactured and designed back at the ole Blighty. Worthy investment into a more self reliant future

This was fun to read. It felt conclusive based on the journey. Good teaching

> April 24 2023: GitHub closes the issue, saying that being able to impersonate your own account is not an issue

I mean, fear & curiosity would have me testing it before closing. Wha?

Honestly, it is -- I've a handful of devices and at least 2 needed debug level recovery of the firmware because of board revisions and pinouts for the same product being vastly different.

They should do better, but they're in a fun corner of the industry pushing out a half decent solution, so I accept.

I'd say you've found a slightly slower way of setting fire to your money

Adding shaped apertures for custom bokeh does not an anamorphic make. Nor is Tito the first to discover such a basic and old technique

Conflicted. Glad the general movement is cohesiveness amongst platforms. Sad it's as dull, flat grey and devoid of meaningful actions as ever, particularly in the quest for prettier marketing screenshots? Or what? Design has lost its way to a horribly reductionist thought process. Bring Brutalism to the UI. Find purpose and utility to the minimalism these designs are so inspired by.

I swear the nuance between icons is hard enough to discern in one app, and remember. Then an entirely other app says no, that generic rounded square isn't a save icon, it's an open one!

Christ.

It didn’t!

Welp. It used to be PhysX math would run on a dedicated gpu of choice. I remember assigning or realising this during the Red Faction game with forever destructing walls.

Almost Minecraft, but with rocket launchers on mars

Seems a bit disingenuous to say movies are dead when comparing a series that encapsulate many more multiple hours of viewing than a movie would. Might be wiser to divide the viewers by total episodes to at least get half a fair argument, but someone actually versed in big data would have wiser words to say.

As quickly as I was interested and have one device on trial -- have they destroyed all confidence once again and made me go back to the Frigate stack.

Thanks, Ubiquiti. Always so close, but always so NSA stinky.

Again… the manual sensor clean action action does both. Granted I mean the manual ‘automatic’
