What makes the US have more free speech?

Legally all EU countries have freedom of expression enshrined in their constitutions.

Culturally I find Americans blind to any non governmental censorship. Since it’s legal its OK.I believe not allowing private companies to censor people is absurdly considered a violation of free speech.

There are obvious results as well: the US is way less politically diverse.

As long as a standard “unblessed” usb-c cable will work fully with the phone it’s non-issue.

Yes they do.

Which is why you want an agreement to make them liable for copyright infringement (plagiarism is not a crime itself).

You would have to pay for distributing copyright infringing material whether created by AI or humans or just straight up copied.

I don’t care if AI will be used,commercially or otherwise.

I am worried about further limitations being placed upon the general public (not “creatives”/publishers/AI corps) either by reinterpretation of existing laws, amendment of existing laws or legislation of brand new rights (for copyright holders/creators, not the general public).

I don’t even care who wins, the “creatives” or tech/AI, just that we don’t get further shafted.

You need a very specific prompt to make a copy. Even to just be similar enough you have to put the proper input and try a lot of repetitions.

That’s why the right holders are going after the training which included copying by the AI corpos.

In your dream land right holders could just prompt the AI till it spit something close to their work and sue the AI corp for that. Repeat as needed ; infinite money glitch.

Obviously it doesn’t work that way.

Neither are AI vendors. We have locally hosted AI models and they don’t contain what they output. You can tell by the actual size.

Nope. The output is based on the users input in both cases.

It’s not stealing, its not even ‘piracy’ which also is not stealing.

Copyright laws need to be scaled back, to not criminalize socially accepted behavior, not expand.

Operating system have been used to commit copyright infringement much more effectively and massively by copying copyrighted material verbatim.

OS vendors are not liable, the people who make and distribute the copies are. The same applies for Word processors, image editors etc.

You are for a massive expansion on the scope of copyright limiting the freedoms of the general public not just AI corps or tech corps.

It’s not a breach of copyright or other IP law not to cite sources on your paper.

Getting your paper rejected for lacking sources is also not infringing in your freedom. Being forced to pay damages and delete your paper from any public space would be infringement of your freedom.

The decision is that even lending out ebooks against owned copies is illegal

What the IA may be illegal but is certainly not wrong.

Ubuntu Wiki Ask Ubuntu Ubuntu Forums

The wiki has some information and should correspond to how Ubuntu specifically is configured. You can ask for ubuntu specific help in those communities. You can also ask here and on several Linux communities on Lemmy.

The Arch Wiki I find to be more in depth than the ubuntu wiki. Of course some things may differ from Ubuntu’s defaults but I found it a useful resource when using Ubuntu.

Finally I suggest you learn a bit about how Linux works in general, what is in what directory, what is wayland and xorg, understand how drives are named etc and some understanding of the terminal (moving around in directories, how to use sudo etc, no need to learn to make bash scripts).

They can also use pavucontrol, whether they use pulse or pipe, for a GUI to select default audio interface as well as easily switch apps to different outputs if needed

I think the disks could be Dynamic Disks on which it would not be a good idea to install a linux distro.

Unfortunately Microsoft’s own advice to change it to a basic disk (since it considers dynamic deprecated) WILL RESULT IN DATA LOSS.

Since you only want to access them it seem to be possible with ldmtool. While it is a cli tool there is a corresponding service that at least according to some askubuntu posts and arcwiki should make them behave like normal filesystems.

ROFL

If Microsoft really cares for more users keeping their system updated they should fix their update process.

While some updates require a reboot on other OSes for them to take effect they don’t require work during the reboot maximizing the downtime.

Which is on top of the work done before rebooting, on the background, unprompted, destroying system performance.

I remember an Apple fanboy arguing that this made things better!

When you use a hotspot from your phone the site/peers/whatever sees an IP that your ISP has assigned to you and could share that with authorities etc.

When you use a WiFi they see an IP assigned to the owner of the WiFi.

Security wise its easier for others in the WiFi to try and fuck with your computer since you are on the same LAN.

So it depends on what you fear the most.

It appears I either misunderstood or misremembered what I read.

It probably referred to MAC addresses being reused on WiFi. However the frames used are not Ethernet frames.

Ethernet however is not restricted to twisted pair cat cables it’s on fiber and originally was on co-axial.

Ethernet over WiFi is WiFi. Ethernet is a protocol not the cables and its used with wired networks and WiFi.

They would drop tactical nukes on NATO forces.

It’s never going to happen anyways.

Why won’t they get a virus or something on Windows 10 with that same hardware?
