I’m more upset by the word ‘Resto’ in the title

Like, could you imagine this article ending on a ‘dont touch this dumpster fire of a stock’ line? Conde nast would not allow that.
The article was so glowing at the end it almost swayed me until that realization

Put your entire savings in. Then open up a few credit cards and take out as much cash of them as possible. Put it all into one stock. Then be confident that you’re smarter than everyone else and will sell at just the right moment, and much smarter than the people shorting the stock.

I volunteered to moderate a magazine. It still has just Ernest. Those are the ones posting Watch Dune 2 with a link to LinkedIn.

Glad to hear it boss man.
However, you’ve got to remember that you’re the boss man. You have to delegate.
You shouldn’t be clearing spam. You have people for that.
I spend time doing a bunch of reports to you on pill pushers and spam links. I could just as easily be spending my time banning those usernames, resulting in faster responses and better experience for everyone.
I think most people on the site would say your time is spent on doing admin stuff. Not mod spam stuff.

Ernest, please act on assigning mods to any of the magazines where you are the sole mod. The spam on those is significant and there are people willing to help. E.g. m/internet

There’s going to be some people that are going to start boiling all of their water after reading this article

600k for causing a mass migration. Fuck that and fuck CEO compensation in general

It’s not too late to short the stock

Guess you never encountered the old ‘plant c4 on the walkway to the ship’ trick in drg

No. What kind of crazy shit is this?
Income tax is one of the only tools that could be used to combat inequality

They need to fix their shit at home and get the current dictator out of office

Metafilter had a charge of a dollar or two to sign up, and no recurring payments. Seems like a good way to prevent spammers.
Not too much of a hurdle to cross, especially if payments are thru Amazon or some other existing service ppl have trust in. Any funds go to server costs.

I’ve played a night so far and prob got my $26 of value in the next few days.
It’s fun and think I can spend some time on it. What else is there to ask?
Also, you know there’s going to be mods to add licensed chars to the game so that should add another level of fun when you can ride Thomas the train to run over legally distinct pikachus

Isn’t this the longest lad game ever? If it’s something only the doe hards are actually going to get to, I could see locking it behind more $

If you want to put them in hell, just put them into a water level a la Zelda. All their abilities prob won’t work as well and would require creative thinking from you and them to see how to survive.

I can take the entirety of Harry Potter, run it thru chat gpt to ‘rewrite in the style of Lord of the rings’, and rename the characters. Assuming it all works correctly, everything should be reworded. But, I would get deservedly sued into the ground.
News articles might be a different subject matter, but a blatant rewording of each sentence, line by line, still seems like a valid copyright claim.
You have to add context or nuance or use multiple sources. Some kind of original thought. You can’t just wholly repackage someone else’s work and profit off of that.

I doubt they did the ‘rewrote this text like this’ prompt you state. This would just come out in any trial if it was that simple and would be a giant black mark on the paper for filing a frivolous lawsuit.

If we rule that out, then it means that gpt had article text in its knowledge base, and nyt was able to get it to copy that text out in its response.
Even that is problematic. Either gpt does this a lot and usually rewrites it better, or it does that sometimes. Both are copyright offenses.

Nyt has copyright over its article text, and they didn’t give license to gpt to reproduce it. Even if they had to coax the text out thru lots of prompts and creative trial and error, it still stands that gpt copied text and reproduced it and made money off that act without the agreement of the rights holder.

There’s a ton of those out there and they don’t offer a lot more than what the steam deck can already do.

Black mirror shit. Who thinks reading an empathy script from an AI model is a good idea?
