Suing as a patent troll, but this sound lass like Apple being Apple, and more like some serious, and highly illegal, industrial espionage from OpenAI and Sam Altman.
Sam Altman built his business on theft, and may very well seriously overstepped here. I also expect a bunch of former Apple employees going to jail over the physical thefts, and that too will cause OpenAI problems because they asked for the thefts, and likely paid the former Apple employees.
Well, one of Lenin’s first acts was to establish a secret police force and arrest all the Socialist Revolutionaries, you know, the people who actually carried out the February revolution and won the 1917 constitutional assembly vote. Lenin’s Bolsheviks did not win, but by then he had couped the government and betrayed the revolution, starting the Russian Civil War.
But saying he betrayed the revolution implied he had any part in it in the first place.
Then, when Lenin died, he had his third version of a sprawling secret police force that Stalin could use without any alteration beyond putting his own supporters in control.
All with “Vanguard Parties” that were just another name for totalitarian rule where dissent was arrested and secretly tortured and murdered, but not that secretly, because they also wanted to spread fear and terror.
If even half the accusations are true, then OpenAI doesn’t have a chance in hell of existing at the end of this. The accusation alone might sink the company. They’re projected to be completely out of money this time next year, they might have saved it with an IPO, but the general vibe is not optimistic for them, and that was before being accused of blatant industrial espionage of Apple IP.
I have never once given Apple money, and very likely never will, but if they kill OpenAI and pop this bubble then I’ll give them a slight nod of respect before I go back to asking pointed questions about why all their factories need suicide nets.
Yes, but it’s also the Internet routing around censorship which is beautiful in a weird way.
Stupid word filters have existed for decades, and yes, some auto censor the word kill.
The Internet, being the Internet, took it to meme levels of absurdity and then beat it to death for at least a decade now.
It’s more of a “sure, you can waste money on that” sort of approval.
People don’t really understand the scale of what’s needed to actually put large structures in space. Or in this case 50,000 satellites.
The plan is horrifically bad, but also completely unfeasible.
The FCC shouldn’t be enabling this scam, but I’m not that worried.
Or no more worried about this scam than any of the dozen of active scams by semi-competent tech bro billionaires.
The possibile end of the bubble.
Why would it? Are you somehow afraid of something tastier than honey?
Also it almost certainly exists but is likely hard to gather in significant quantities.
Which is good, but Lower Decks is totally worth it. It feels more like trek than anything else produced since TNG,
Lower Decks has a hopeful optimism that never loses it’s core message. The universe is a scary place, and the Federation has problems, but if we work together and support each other, we can make the world a better place. Cerritos Strong.
Much worse than a shotgun with bird shot, but when compared to a rifle or pistol, a sling is easier to learn, and also easier for a beginner to hit a slow moving target like a rabbit or bird.
Training will quickly reverse that, but training takes time and resources.

Edit; Formatting is hard, and I’m giving up on the joke. Fox would never admit to such truths even in a subscript at the bottom of an article.
What use is seeing behind yourself to a creature that often lives in tight tunnels.
Whereas cows and horses and such live out in the open, seeing predators from any angle is important.
A mouse and most other rodents, pop their head out from cover, then look around a bit. So binocular vision is more useful and thus favored.
Also, some rodents are predatory.
I always thought of the Herman Cain award being given out when the cause of death was something the person said wasn’t real.
Like Herman Cain and COVID.
McConnell is just ancient and evil. There’s no award for then an ancient evil dies, just relief.
The first winner of the famous Herman Cain award during COVID. Awarded posthumously.
I don’t know, Pike was kind of a hero, and then lived out the rest of his life in what was basically the Matrix on Talos IV.
Or maybe a holodeck. The analogy is hard because the episodes were a bit vague except calling it illusion.
Either way, McConnell has been sort of the opposite of Pike.
Even medically, there was never damage to Pike’s brain, McConnell was stroking out years ago.
If the backup is on the same device, it’s not a backup, and if you’ve not tested it on a clean machine, it’s not a backup.
I’d argue not. This was a Rap Battle, not a magic battle. Foul on the field.
Again, not a protected species, also, don’t fucking plant kudzu.
Plant a state and federally environmentally protected species, native to the area. Plant a bunch of them and then report the plants to local protective agencies and environmentalist groups. Do your best to hide the fact that these are transplanted plants.
Plant kudzu and all you’re doing is annoying the construction company, forcing them to pave over everything.
It’s actually waves of religious extremism. Ebbs and flows. It can be, and has been, fought before. The problem is that it never fully dies out.
I’d like to think that reason can eventually win. If only because the religious extremists keep taking it to, well, extremes. This drives people away from the belief, because why the fuck would you ever believe in the shit the extremists preach?
They tell you that you’re worthless, that you should bow and scrape while they ignore every single tenet of their own religion. Holiness becomes removed from actions and becomes and excuse for terrible behavior.
But then the extremist are forced to back off, or their little sect of greed worship dies out when the grifter claiming to be a preacher dies or gets sent to prison, and the cycle is primed to begin again when a new sect of Christianity pops up to start recruiting in an area, often by first attacking non-Christian education options.
So, you think the State is some vague magic conspiracy then? No, it’s the government and associated bureaucracies. The rules and regulations by which society functions.
It’s the tool of control, and when it’s not in control, it’s just a group of armed thugs.
Or even, raised by conservatives and or the deeply religious.
Just the child abuse rates should tell you everything you need to know.
