  • Well there is the part where all AI is controlled and developed by a group of fashist billionaires that primarily use it to spread false information and further their power, money and influence while destroying democracy, self expression and art. They are developed by stealing, exploiting and destroying the environment.

    It is completely reasonable to hate AI in its current form even when presented with a cool and actually useful use case.

  • I think Gabe Newell said in an interview, VR is actually moving to fast. There is no point in pushing a product to market and spending all that time and money needed for that, when by the time you make it to the market the research has moved so much, your tech and product is obsolete already.

    At some point they will release products again and they will be amazing (hopefully) but we dont get the continuous advances like with grafics back in the day

  • Expanding on what rustyfish wrote: a lot of wired stuff happens in those games and Ahti never acknowledges any of it. He is the janitor and he is mopping the floor. He will ask you to fetch something mundane like a tool from the basement which by pure coincidence is the exact place and time you need to be to save the world. He appears in places he should never have been able to get to. You had to fight through many enemies to get there, Ahti is just there.

    He is the janitor of the universe, making sure things are how they should be. And then he goes to sing songs at the community center.

  • Or just make some laws about impartiality, and use fines and loss of licence as punishment. Lastly, allow renters to choose the inspector.

    Unfortunately in many places houses are rare and landlords can choose from a wide range of interested renters. They can always choose the renter that is willing to pay for the inspection completely and choose the inspection company favoured by the landlord.

  • Splitting costs between a party paying money and a party receiving money (in exchanage for goods or services) never works. If the landlord wants to rent for X but have to pay Y, they will simply rent for X+Y so they end up with X the way they wanted.

  • It could. It just doesn't want to. Why would it? Its your computer.

    If you want to delete / including the EFI partition turning your machine into a paperweight you should be allowed to do so.

  • If you want to calculate the cipher on paper everything that works on binary will be a huge overhead and basically require you to write stuff down for the calculations. So you need to burn sheets of paper for every en/decryption. So no XOR or anything.

    I would go for a stream-caesar-cipher. Find a mathematical formula that you can calculate in your head and that gives you a numbers between 1-35 (or something similar depending on how many different characters you need). The formula must be pseudo random so f(x)=5, f(x+1)=1, f(x+2)=28, ... and not loop for a looooong time. Calculate a new value FOR EVERY LETTER OF YOUR TEXT!!!!! and use that as your Caesar cipher for that letter only (x is the position of the character in the text)

    You need to keep track which letter in your cipher text was encoded with which x (write the x of the first letter of each page down) and keep the formula a secret. Never ever under any circumstance reuse an x. So you need to keep x going for every page/message and can't restart at 1 each time.

    If x becomes to large and the calculations to complicated, its better to change the formula than to restart x. Never ever ever ever reuse the same cipher because then you get all the drawbacks of Caesar ciphers (probability of letters, length of words (position of the space character) etc).

  • Watching a YouTube video and downloading a YouTube video are the same thing. They are indistinguishable. You can not watch the video without downloading it. Just normally you dont keep the file but each part of the video is discarded a few seconds after you watched it. I dont think YouTube ever went after users who watched pirated content, they only ban the channels that upload it.

    Your ISP or law enforcement only see you are watching YouTube. They dont know which video and they dont know if you save it or not.

  • The system where someone monopolizes a essential good and leverages that to gain power is called anarcho-capitalism and is a whole different thing. In anarchy, ownership on that level does not exist. Neither a company nor a person can own a factory, or a farm, or the power grid. Employment doesn't exist. People can band together and distribute tasks for a common goal (such as producing a certain good) but they all hold equal stake in all decisions.

    Of course a group of people could use violence to oppress other people. But then you no longer have anarchy. The same way a democracy stops beeing a democracy once a group seizes power and doesn't allow fair elections anymore.

  • AMD is no problem. Only nvidea (of the big mainstream hardware manufacturers) does not supply Linux drivers.

    In fact AMD will most likely make it easier than Intel if something doesn't work. Intel pretty mutch only thinks about Winows, so if there are driver problems, there are only windows drivers to download on their website (but there shouldn't be an problems in the first place anyway)

  • In parts, yes. TV does not have the same ability to respond to your actions. It can't change the program for you specifically to cater to your individual habits. It can't create the same feedback loop that social media algorithms have that push people further and further into extremist views.

  • Doch! Wer AFD wählt ist Rassist. Wenn es für dich OK ist eine Partei zu wählen die mit offensichtlich rassistischen Parolen und Thesen um sich wirft, dann bist du Rassist. Selbst wenn du die Partei nicht WEGEN dem Rassismus wählst.
