Has anyone else noticed that the same people who are criticizing generative AI for "stealing" people's intellectual property are the same people who were claiming that copyright is an outdated concept, years ago?

You can't have it both ways.

"The data was wrong" is a very convenient euphemism for gaslighting the public.

"What they rarely considered was whether something else might be responsible for the disconnect — whether, for instance, government statistics were fundamentally flawed. What if the numbers supporting the case for broad-based prosperity were themselves misrepresentations? What if, in fact, darker assessments of the economy were more authentically tethered to reality?"

What if people had been saying that for a long time....

That is always what is said in the beginning in order to get people to accept it and not try and stop it. Before long they make life difficult without it and soon after that, it is mandatory.

Say no to Digital ID!

Repost from @lifesitenews on Gab:
A briefing note from members of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet claims that a national digital ID system is “easier” and “more secure” than traditional identification, but insists it will remain “optional.”

Added a "death animation" for bosses (actually for all enemies but I don't think it works well with them when I tested it) instead of just a single frame. There is supposed to be an additional frame but it doesn't appear in game.

One of the greatest tricks the oligarchs have ever pulled is to convince the public that this swing of the pendulum is the only conceivable political reality.

F.E.A.R. is only $2 on Steam right now. If you haven't played it, you absolutely should. It's an awesome game, one of my favorites!

If there is one good thing to say about proprietary software, it's that it is kind of fun and exciting to reverse engineer your favorite game to see how it works and find unused content. Having the source code available just gives it all away.

Ever since Google went full ballistic on Invidious. I've been using FreeTube, and it is much better than Invidious or Hooktube ever were. Not only does it include SponsorBlock (which I don't really care about honestly), but it also allows you to disable suggested videos and featured videos on the home screen. Finally, I can listen to my VGM in peace without seeing the featured garbage everyone else is watching.
