Cats can be affectionate. They provide entertainment too. I like it when my cat Somes to sit on my lap when I’m reading a book, or snuggled up i bed when it’s cold at night.
I admire dog people for being able to give their pets all the attention they need, go for walks, clean after them. some times I don’t have the time to give enough attention to my cat when he wants to play.

The times doesn’t pay you royalties for your book sales, and it doesn’t cost you anything. They also detect if someone is messing with the system and display a dagger symbol if you are found to inflate your numbers.

The crime isn’t in publishing AI music. The crime was that he setup fake listeners streaming his songs so he could get royalties and inflate popularity. Initially he published his own songs, but to scale up and avoid detection he started creating music at scale - That’s where AI Comes in.
Smith’s scheme, which prosecutors say ran for seven years, involved creating thousands of fake streaming accounts using purchased email addresses. He developed software to play his AI-generated music on repeat from various computers, mimicking individual listeners from different locations. In an industry where success is measured by digital listens, Smith’s fabricated catalog reportedly managed to rack up billions of streams.
- Comment on Was browsing through the Immich cursed knowledge library. This is quite interesting. 2 months ago:
I’m also worried that this is why gallery apps would require GPS location just for viewing photos (and their Metadata). Once gallery app has the permission, it can track your location in real time. It’s like this should be a separate permission rather than bundled together.

That’s nice and helps remember it’s 22/7. Americans can have their 14th of March, and let 22/7 be the international pi day.

- Comment on Court ordered penalties for 15 teens who created naked AI images of classmates 4 months ago:
Knives and car keys are accessible. I don’t know about porn AI tools, i haven’t seen any myself. The AI tools i did see have guard rails that make improper use impossible.
- Comment on Court ordered penalties for 15 teens who created naked AI images of classmates 4 months ago:
We (adults) created a world with knives, guns, automobiles. But if any of these were used by a child for manslaughter would you still blame collective adults? No, parents are held responsible for protecting their children and controlling their access to dangerous tools.

I dont think i had this problem, but then again i had been learning a few years by watching movies and listening to songs before i met some actual English speakers. The benefit of a two way conversation is you can always ask them to repeat.
