Look into Paxton’s history of using consumer protection laws to do the opposite. He has never cared about people’s privacy before. This is almost certainly corrupt in some way, probably to either pressure Netflix to do something for the GOP or to score political points with someone.

I had the same initial feeling. My first thought was why Netflix? Is it a proxy CA v TX thing?

It could be spurred on by some recent success in the courts from suits against the likes of Meta and YouTube for similar things.

It’s not free for a small town to litigate for years. The fact they settled so fast implies that the way they did it was not remotely legal. They may not have followed their own rules or state rules. Doing that is a good way to get a judge mad real fast. Judge could have put a preliminary injunction on the town to allow the construction to start while litigation proceeded. To do that the judge would have to determine that the developer was likely to succeed and that no irreparable harms would be caused. If the developers lost then they could just demo what had been built and restore the site, no harm done.

More likely that most batteries are made from lithium recycled from old batteries rather than mined lithium.

Another lying headline. You all will up vote anything that makes you mad without reading it or thinking critically at all.

• Residents didn’t vote on this, the town board did
• The town board was sued by the developers
• The developers were likely to win so the town settled and got some concessions from the developer

Well the thing is that they’re really trying to make it illegal for more and more people to vote.

Doesn’t look like an ad. Looks like the live WWE Raw event you’re watching is showing ads on other platforms and you’re seeing a black screen until it resumes…

Get mad about real things yall. We don’t need to fake outrage when there is actual bad things happening.

Low tire pressure is not a safety issue, more of a efficiency issue, until it is so low that you’d need to be paying ZERO attention to the car’s handling to not notice. Lower pressure actually increases performance (to a point, and depending on the tire) because it can allow more rubber to contact the road. It is pretty typical to air down to around 20 psi for performance driving even if it’s closer to 35 for daily driving.

It’s very easy to notice if one tire loses pressure because you’ll have a very strong pull to one side, almost like a bad alignment. I got my tires rotated at a shop and they deflated the tires for some reason and forgot to refill one of them. On my way home I was freaking out that they fucked my alignment because it was handling so weird on the suburban roads home (not even twisty performance driving). My TPMS didn’t even go off until I was basically home already. When I checked the tire it was maybe 15 or 20. Certainly not dangerous but also certainly noticeable.

Why the fuck are they putting Sac State housing in the Capitol Mall area??? It’s like 3 miles from the school… The light rail is nearby, but still, the Sac State Station is a few blocks from the edge of a pretty large campus.

Slow down homie. The DOJ in this is the California Department of Justice.

Yes, they aren’t changing course, but Discord certainly did not say “most” in the announcement and it was a single sentence in a long article about age verification and content gating. They should have been far more upfront about their inference method being the primary one in the first place. This was a communication issue and not a reader issue.

It’s also possible they decided to tune their inference model to be a lot more, let’s say, permissive so that there isn’t a huge backlash of people getting asked to provide ID when they’ve been using the service for nearly a decade or longer.

Humans will anthropomorphize damn near anything. We’ll say shit like “hydrogen atoms want to be with oxygen so bad they get super excited and move around a lot when they get to bond”. I don’t think characterizing the language output of an LLM using terms that describe how people speak is a bad thing.

“Hallucination” on the other hand is not even close to describing the “incorrect” bullshit that comes out of LLMs as opposed to the “correct” bullshit. The source of using “hallucination” to describe the output of deep neural networks kind of started with these early image generators. Everything it output was a hallucination, but eventually these networks got so believable that sometimes they could output realistic, and even sometimes factually accurate, content. So the people who wanted these neural nets to be AI would start to only call the bad and unbelievable and false outputs as hallucinations. It’s not just anthropomorphizing it, but implying that it actually does something like thinking and has a state of mind.

.gs is not one of the currently listed domains. Are you sure that’s a real one?

The watchabilty thing actually makes stuff nearly unwatchable for me because I like to, you know, pay attention to the movie I am watching. They have to make the characters so one note and cliche so that half-brains can pick up what’s happening in the film. They beat you over the head with everything but don’t bother closing up plot holes because they think you weren’t paying enough attention to see them.

Smart Tube never broke. So not all clients.

I just love the d in Montana. Shame it missed it.

Easiest/cheapest way would be to buy $NVD which is a 2x inverse ETF. It is designed so that if NVDA drops by 5% on a day, NVD will go up by 10%. But it’s on a daily basis and isn’t perfect, so over the long run it will bleed out, so you still need to time it right to profit on it.

Unrelated to the article itself, but god fucking damn is that website absolutely absurd. It looks like a shitty campaign website. The sad sad man changed the seal of the office and put an eagle (because books are lame I guess) and “free state of florida” at the bottom like that’s a real thing. Can’t believe this works on people.

You’re saying th AI bubble has popped because even more smaller companies and individuals are getting in on the action?

Thats kind of the definition of a bubble actually. When more and more people start trying to make money on a trend that doesn’t have that much real value in it. This happened with the dotcom bubble nearly the same. It wasn’t that the web/tech wasn’t valuable, it’s now the most valuable sector of the world economy, but at the time the bubble expanded more was being invested than it was worth because no one wanted to miss out and it was accessible enough almost anyone could try it out.
