Of course, it could all be another elaborate pump-and-dump scheme by Elon. It wouldn’t put it past him.

Well, aside from keyboards and mice.

User name checks out.

Like wealth disparity, you see people claiming more and more within the realm of IP. Where does this sort of land grabbing end?

Don’t worry. Either way, there will still be elections. The real question is whether we start to see candidates “accidentally” falling out of windows or drinking poisoned tea, etc.

The growth was largely driven by Azure and cloud services, which saw a 33 percent increase in revenue. The company attributed 12 percent of that to AI-related products and services.

This sort of study shows you more how mathematicians think than how science or philosophy works.

“The problem with sites that extract text from movies and other content is that they reduce people’s desire to pay a fair price for content, which can lead to people not seeing the official full-length movies, causing great damage to rights holders,” the anti-piracy group explains.

Journalism has been dead for ages. Now, satire (like The Onion), that’s informative.

This is felony level bait-and-switch going on, here. This really should have criminal charges attached to the perpetrators.

Now that I think about it, the cause-and-effect here is probably being viewed all wrong.

What likely happens is that a game comes out to overwhelming expectations, and the greater those player expectations are met, the more word-of-mouth gets around about the game. Thus, games that deserve to do well make more money, and pirates are less motivated to work on a crack right away.

If player expectations are not being met, the less success the game receives, and the more motivated pirates are to crack it (driven by their disgust at bad software).

The above scenarios probably do a good job of accounting for 20% of the revenue for a game.

Degenerate robosexuals isn’t something to get your panties in a bunch about. The real worry is when people modify the useful chatbots to provide more interesting insights into creative sexuality. There’s a subject braindead journos can’t even contemplate, yet I doubt I’m the only one thinking about it.

I still love Ubuntu, but I understand people who hate it. Ubuntu definitely ain’t for everyone.

It’s not.

The 5th Circuit remanded the case to the district court for a new trial on damages. Record labels can expect a lower payout because the appeals court said they can’t obtain separate damages awards for multiple songs on the same album.
