He says that the data is not illegal to possess only illegal to sell, so it’s not CSAM. Also you don’t ever actually possess the data, you facilitate its sale though.
- Comment on I build a machine that turns you into a criminal | Rootkid 16 hours ago:
The data isn’t accessable. The device is listed for sale (including the HDD with data: I’d guess SSNs because it is not illegal to possess another persons SSN, only to fraudulently use it and to sell it etc). If someone managed to buy it (in one of the brief, sporadic windows we can expect it to be for sale) the artist would still have to physically send the device to them before the data was actually in their possession, but by pressing the button you are participating in the operation of an illegal marketplace.
It’s good art.
- Comment on But the Canadien stock market is over 33,000! 2 weeks ago:
Seeing the interview with the two Canadians after the match put me off of them so hard. I don’t want those guys representing me. The way they accused Sweden of only complaining because they were losing was gross. Like even if Canada wasn’t cheating clearly it was reasonable for Sweden to ask for scrutiny. It’s like classic victim blaming, so toxic.
- Comment on Probably helps that I'm happy to listen to whatever genre 3 weeks ago:
I’m surprised P ended up that high, the amount of autotune in it sounds like AI speech synthesizer with articulation cranked all the way 11 where it just makes random weird sounds
59.1% AI-detection™ score
A small note: that I wasn’t trying to decide whether something was AI, I was trying to evaluate its creativity. So I actually thought A was real, but that it was extremely generic…
Also I only listened to each track once, then decided where to put it in the list. Like “top”, “bottom”, “near bottom but not worst”. And I placed them as I went. If I went through the list again I’d probably swap some but that would have taken way longer and I decided it was more important to be done.

Great work. A few thoughts re: methodology.
- I despair for society’s musical inclinations.
- Not being able to understand the lyrics was a big impediment.
- Not being familiar with/fond of the genres was a big impediment.
- given those two limitations I think I may have inadvertently selected for intra-song diversity and that may favour AI generation since it’s a lot more work for musicians to change sounds in the middle of a song.
I’m very curious to see the results. Sorry I didn’t get to it sooner.

So I’m pretty ignorant of the top of the chart I’d be willing to be a guinea pig. Do you want to send me like 3 chart toppers and an AI song and I’ll see which one is most creative?

The purpose of my idea is to average 2g without expecting people to function in 2g. Not just for the purpose of a weighted blanket
- Comment on HD 137010 b 4 weeks ago:
What about accelerating 1g for 16 hours of ‘day’, then 8 hours of 3g ‘night’. It would be one hell of a weighted blanket lol.

You guys are too ignorant to see how full of shit OP is.
50F is not 50% hot, it’s cold. If your house was 50F you’d be saying “something is wrong with my HVAC”. You’d never heat to only 50, and you’d never cool that far. It’s cellar temperature (colder than a wine cellar, warmer than a root cellar).
70F is 50% hot. It’s a temp you’d cool to in the summer, and a temp you’d heat to in the winter.
100F isn’t 100% hot either, most people enjoy a hottub to be a little hotter.
Tldr: OP is wrong

I don’t think it’s accurate to only indicate the Roman catholic church. The creation of the bible was a process of curation and editing intentional and accidental.
But the Roman catholic church is defo responsible for the inclusion of the Johannine Comma in the KJV.

- Comment on Alchemy is so hot right now. 1 month ago:
It’s a neat idea for sure, but the out of place artifacts are rarely/never as mysterious as people like Graham Hancock would suggest.
Younger Dryas wasn’t as catastrophic either. Nor are flood myths as unified.
It’s fun to imagine possibilities like that but I can’t conceive of how a society could advance to a nonphysical/digital technology paradigm without impacting the earth in enormously detectable ways.
I think it’s interesting to imagine a scenario like what if European explorers shipwrecked on a place like Rapa Nui, the most isolated inhabitable place on the planet. How many generations could they maintain knowledge of the globe, and their culture.

- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 months ago:
Ambient air temp when the bottle is cooling probably also plays a role, more or less shrink before it “freezes”
Yeah I agree with that. Also maybe inconsistency with the plastic batch.
But also milk jugs are blown directly from pellets, no threaded blank. Water bottles and pop bottles go from threaded blanks though.
I don’t remember seeing washing but I guess that would be on the filling side, (jugs are made on one side of the plant then go through a wall to the clean side) I don’t think I’ve seen that for milk.

I was wondering that too, fake redaction on false allegations and unverifiable allegations, real redaction on allegations that can be corroborated.

I think they might. We should find someone from Dunedin.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
They reference sleighs because they are (were) a practical and fun way of getting around in winter. Sleighs are associated with Santa but the songs aren’t about his sleigh.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Lots of Christmas songs are actually just winter songs.

- Comment on Anon is a linguist 2 months ago:
Honestly I agree, I only pointed it out because of the irony of a pedant insisting others ought to use words according to their formal definitions while misusing formal English.
“Right” is a bad word to end a sentence with“Right” is a bad word with which to end a sentence because it can be mis-parsed as as an invitation to agreement.
- Comment on Anon is a linguist 2 months ago:
I feel like I’m walking into a trap here but:
This pedant is using an adjective as an adverb.
(…)you don’t conjugate your verbs right.
