The ones that pay are the ones running the ads. If the content creators have to pay, they will be the ones doing ads. This is how AV content has worked since the dawn of broadcast radio.

Patents don’t protect art

Edit: ok, apparently “prior art” might be a phase in US patent law. I don’t quite understand what it means. In my country patents protect functions, not expressions of ideas (art)

Couldbealeotard , 6 days ago

If you’re good at what you do, it’s not hard at all. Doesn’t even feel like work. The one thing it takes from you is time. Long long days, time away from family. It’s wonderful but it’s a doozy of a price you pay

Couldbealeotard , 6 days ago

You are conflating copyright and patents. Copyright is protection for the expression of an idea, like the art design. This is a patent issue, which is a protection of how something works.

If somehow I patent a vague mechanic like “a method of selecting weapons with the directions of an analogue stick or mouse, presented as an 8 direction on screen circle.” Then I could sue Red Dead Redemption and Batman Arkham, despite there being no copyright infringement with whatever game I made with that feature.

So, just like FFXIV?

World of Final Fantasy is as close to a Pokemon rip off as you can get, and they didn’t get sued.

Edit. And now I think about it, the mobile game of Rick and Morty was very much a reskin of Pokemon.

These click bait titles are getting harder just to understand what they are trying to communicate.

Sounds absolutely smashing

Couldbealeotard OP , 12 days ago

In this case the difference is that you don’t need to be in the same room as the typer

Couldbealeotard OP , 12 days ago

It sounds like it is potentially more precise. You can use software to extrapolate the input without the typer realising their typing is being watched.

The charges have nothing to do with the content he uploaded. Are people so ready to give their opinion on AI that they assume AI must be the reason he’s getting charged?

For me, console gaming was for when my desktop rig was doing a video export or 3d render. It was when I wanted to sit on the couch and not be too invested in what I was playing with.

Couldbealeotard , 14 days ago

What can’t you play?

I think the Botting of streams to game the royalties is the bit they don’t like.

Obviously it would be a beach of t&cs

If threads is incorporated into the larger fediverse, sure you’ll get a bump in dau, but threads will eventually dominate the user base. Then if they devide to cut ties with Lemmy sites, the fediverse basically loses 90% of engagement overnight.

Couldbealeotard , 21 days ago

Sure. Substitute “Lemmy” for whatever fediverse service it is mingling with.

If it’s the demonstration I’m thinking of, it uses gravity to visualise the affects of an otherwise invisible force.

Couldbealeotard , 22 days ago

Oh yea? Well, why doesn’t Ross, the larger of the friends, simply eat the other friends?

Couldbealeotard , 24 days ago

Cheaper? yes. better? No. LLMs produce the most derivative inane BS that it would just act as filler. In classic RPGs and adventure games a lot of the filler dialogue was one line per NPC to represent a microcosm within a location. There’s nothing to be gained from theoretically infinite NPCs with theoretically infinite lines of pointless dialogue.

Do you have any tips for writing professional documentation? I want to do some for my workplace but it’s hard to know where to start, how to arrange it, etc

Because it looked silly. That is all.

The higher the mortality rate the quicker people tend to get it under control. I guess that’s partially because a dead host is less likely to spread the infection, and partly because people take it more seriously than a bad cough.

I’m sorry to bake your noodle on this one, but when you get buried you’ll get 6 years tops before the site is recycled for the next person.

What are the chances that Crowdstrike started using ai to do their update deployments, and they just won’t admit it?

Couldbealeotard , 2 months ago

That’s kind of why they are successful though, right? They were the ones that figured out how to supply games digitally for a profit, which required a way to prevent people from sharing the product for free. This was previously done with CD keys, but the advent of the internet rendered that mostly ineffective.

You’d rather have 2 middle men for your ticket purchase?

Couldbealeotard , 2 months ago

Going through a scalper means that the ticket supply is artificially decreased, which pumps up the price. Then you run the risk of your ticket not working when you turn up to the venue.

I know this is true, but I find it bizarre that there’s this fixation on straws and not the hundred other things we are likely doing that also kills turtles.

It’s like someone saw that viral video of the turtle with a straw up it’s nose and decided that’s the only thing to focus on.

Couldbealeotard , 2 months ago

No straw though, right? You’re in the clear.

I think OP doesn’t even know what their point is.

They keep saying people will continue to perform sex work if there’s no economic gain, but at that point it’s not work. Then the counter argument to that is “there’s many different kinds of sex work”, but the point still stands that having sex voluntarily, being an exhibitionist, or having a hobby of filming sexual encounters are all things that people do for personal gratification and are not considered a career now, or in this hypothetical post-scarcity civilisation.

Like someone else said, it sounds like they are just fantasising about sex slaves. To me it also sounds like OP is overcompensating on the whole “I respect sex workers” virtue signalling.

You are thinking about IP with tunnel vision. You just want to gain entertainment for free. There’s more than that to IP laws. How would you like it if you made art that was then used in a manner that you philosophically disagree with. For example, Meghan Trainor had a song that was used against her will in a political campaign against same sex marriage, she was able to cease and desist this use because of IP laws.
