This site loaded so quickly it actually surprised me. I swear I’ve got apps on my phone that can’t even switch views faster than this site loads uncached. That’s impressive.

It’s one request Michael, what could it cost? 200kb?

Most certainly it won’t happen until after AI has developed a self-preservation bias. It’s too bad the solution is turning off the AI.

A proof of work challenge is infinitely better than the alternative of “fuck you, you’re accessing this through a VPN and the IP is banned for being owned by Amazon (or literally any data center)”

I’m assuming IA will continue to host their historical archives of Reddit, they’ll just not have any new captures after this. Unless IA has said otherwise, it’d be very strange to wipe their archive of Reddit

The time it takes to publish a book vs a YouTube video completely changes the kinds of things you’ll be able to learn about. Books won’t tell you about current events, discoveries or the latest technology news.

How many books have been published about how AI is affecting society? I’m assuming there’s a few given it’s been years already since ChatGPT 3.5 was released

and so the enshitification continues

If that was the case, maybe they would have responded with that instead of covering up the evidence

They’ve already been pushing their idea to prevent this for years. It’s called OneDrive

Exactly, give me the one on the right, but built out of solid wood so it’s as strong as the one on the left

Oh replay attacks, that makes a bit more sense. Honestly I’ve never been on such a poor network to run into that. I don’t know your situation, but I’d be doing anything I could to get away from that ISP if they’re actively manipulating your traffic

Damn, going from #1 to below average on the bell curve would be kinda disappointing, ngl

What’s a reply attack? Do you have people activity MITM-ing your connection? Personally I’ve found Wireguard performance to be significantly better, especially on spotty mobile Internet

There’s a big difference between a reference implementation and a proof of concept. A proof of concept just shows it’s possible at all, but a reference implementation is meant as a reference for “you should do it this way”. Expect most companies to just directly copy the reference because they’ll feel it’s a waste of time developing their own system that’s in compliance.

All they care about is the statistics of which groups are going to be more likely to buy their product. They’re going to sell a lot more facial hair products advertising to people identify as male than if they spent the same amount of money to advertise to anyone with a less targeted ad.

Well, they’re trying anyway

Yeah, running it through a compressor should work. Maybe I should set something like that up… I’ve had issues hearing certain people talk on YouTube when my air conditioner turns on. It’s infuriating if I’m watching an interview or something with multiple people speaking and their mics are at completely different levels so I can only hear one person or get blasted every time they speak.

For anything cinematic, the intent is usually to get more dynamic range. If you turn it up enough that the dialogue is audible, then the explosions will be as loud as an actual explosion. Fine in a movie theater, not so much in an apartment complex.
