And hence, if a company produced, say, notebooks whose only distinguishing feature was being decorated with a generated image, then anyone else would be within their legal rights to copy it wholesale and put the exact same image on their own notebooks.

Therefore, if a company wants to manufacture actual intellectual property, then they need to hire an actual human to produce it.

I'd love to hear if anyone knows: a) Is this interpretation accurate in any relevant jurisdictions? b) Has it ever been tested in court?

Every update I clone the current boot environment, execute it as a jail, run upgrades in there, and then once upgrades finish I set it to "boot just once", all using the built in bectl. At no point during an upgrade is the running OS in an inconsistent state. Powerloss during upgrade? no problem, since it wasn't activated yet your server comes up with the previous version. And you can either junk the partial upgraded env and start over, or jail it again and continue.

I only wish laptop support was a bit better. But since my laptop is more of a pet, at least it can have Void.

If there is no anticheat (or the anticheat is supported), and the game is on steam, then I would wager that it would "just work". My feeling is that it's more like 99% now. Non steam games can be more problematic (I had issues with the blizzard/wow launcher for instance, it can be made to work but definitely doesn't "just work").

Happy gaming!

But in general the idea of making small changes to solved problems and seeing if you can tackle them is an excellent approach to recreational mathematics! I think I'd start somewhere other than higher degree equations though, that would be a rough start.

LLM as the sickness and the cure...

Children are clearly not capable of understanding the ramifications of this decision. So, prompting children to upload such info should itself be illegal.

Nevermind that most adults do not understand the ramifications either, but we assume they are capable of consenting to anything by fiat, so let's ignore that...

It's true that the characters are very flawed, but perfect characters would not make a compelling story... I guess you are talking about Cameron and not Donna, but if so I'd also say that I think the story does not really reward her, in the end.

If you're willing to consider some random username's opinion, I consider it to be possibly the best of all time TV drama, with the only alternative pick being The Wire.

I hope you enjoy it!

Especially when I start to spend too much time obsessing about storage optimization, or similar. To me, sometimes, the computer is the thing. But it's really helpful to take a step back and think about the big picture.

But then I read the answers and apparently a couple of them had the same idea.

Not sure why it's not the most upvoted option, it seems like the only one that is is not self refuting, as the sincere version of those hypothetical businesses would starve from terminal stupidity... Perhaps my reasoning is wrong?

For your bonus question: I run GrapheneOS and as of now I have 8 user accounts. This might be a bit much for most people. The idea is that my main personal and work accounts use exclusively open source apps, and any context which demands proprietary apps gets siloed off somewhere. Two of the user accounts have google services framework installed, but neither is logged in to the play store.

The reason that the phone is more complex is that I am essentially never forced to use proprietary apps on my desktops, there has always been a way to work around it. But not so on the phone.
