smotched··on UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions
UEFA is not an angel, they generate far more money than FIFA from TV rights, sponsorships, and tickets. They also just don't want to ever lose that.

smotched··on Apple sues OpenAI, accusing it of stealing company secrets
asking these trillion dollar companies to pay a tiny portion of their valuation for the data they're using to profit is not "fighting AI".

with your copyright vision do you think your favorite writers or artists would be putting blood sweat and tears into their work if the publisher just steals it and sells it without giving them a dime?

smotched··on Apple sues OpenAI, accusing it of stealing company secrets
you may be fine with these companies using your data and selling it back to you but you're also saying its not okay for others to not want to participate. basically people that actually create something of value should be forced to give up that value (not counting your shitty public repo that you call "OSS"). you don't even think they should pay a fair value to train on it, as long as you get create your shitty vibe coded slop, you don't care.

So you're okay with a data hoarding company building AGI having your data but not some journalists having <1% of it?
smotched··on Grok 4.5
just because one model is stopped from being released publicly doesnt mean they completely stop. Anthropic has moved on to training the next gen model months ago.

Navigation through gps means you're connected to a satelite at all times. has nothing to do with an internet connection. You're directly connected to the U.S. government (Space Force)

smotched··on Anthropic acquires Bun
since Anthropic is one of the only companies using the Bun Runtime, not just the bundler like most do, they want to make sure the runtime stays the focus. This is good for both companies and us tbh since they wont switch focus to whats popular at the moment

They didn't draw the line there, that's case that was brought forth. That's how the courts work.
