I mean this was obviously gonna be the result given how copyright works. Not sure why the Internet Archive tried it in the first place. Ultimately you have to rewrite copyright law (lol) or pirate stuff like everyone else

Machine learning definitely has a place in modern science/tech but it seems to be plateauing rather than growing exponentially. Actually getting to AGI is going to require a fundamentally different approach and/or significantly more powerful computers.

This was a “feature” they added with the premium subscription, seems like an odd move to give it to the plebs

Controlling a spaceship with a tablet seems terrifying. It’s like the tablets in cars turned up to 11.
Granted, they still have physical buttons for important things, and a lot of the stuff they’ve using the tablet for probably isn’t all that time sensitive, but still. Imagine being in orbit and still having to deal with some laggy Chromium UI!

Yeah, I was picturing looking in little random secondhand stores the way you might do at a record store here in the US. It’ll be on my bucket list if I ever go.

The one thing I really want is a collection of some old Type-Moon games, someone is auctioning them on Yahoo. These are like 25 year old indie games, so there’s no official digital release, and the only way to play them in the west is to pirate them. It’s kinda out of my price range though, more like something I should be looking at in a few years.

Something else I noticed looking at stuff like this is that there are a bunch of obscure indie games and CDs on these websites for like 500 yen. It’d be fun to get a bunch at once and see if there’s anything good. It’s really the kind of thing that’s better to do in person, though.

Seems like the listing disappeared after I posted this, how odd. I thought the auction had like two days left, oh well

Every penny the yen drops makes it harder for me to not make poor financial decisions involving imported weeb junk

I’m not even a programmer but I’ve used GitHub for collaborative projects and this shit wouldn’t even occur to me. Incredible things are happening in CS majors

Just got an ad on Twitter for a Northrop Grumman manga

The practical implications of the results are that men and women process threatening messages differently, therefore behavioral change messages should be carefully targeted to each gender. Explicitly, threatening messages may be effective on women, but may have the reverse effect on men with strong favorable attitudes towards the target behavior.

Soulless shit lol
