This isn't a surprise - the most Tero Pulkinnen can do when challenged is to do one of the following: make a single or series of ridiculous claims about how his plan works or how he thinks copyright law (or indeed, any kind of law works); claim "Nope, I don't believe you" and run away; resort to accusations of piracy and other reprehensible traits.
Seriously, the guy's business plan for Meshpage is to forcibly convert humans into compliant, unquestioning robots by means of threats and brainwashing. Expecting him to give a hinged response is like asking John Smith to not grope women by the pussy.
Why is it that you went after that statement and nothing else either of us said?
the rest of the wall of text was irrelevant because meshpage has already been properly implemented. There isn't any coding to do any longer when the technology exists and have been tweaked to bugfree status. This kinda makes all your recommendations on how to implement the code better irrelevant...
But neither does commercial radio & TV -- yet the Federal government heavily regulates them, including content censorship.
Commercial radio and TV are not common carriers. How many shows have you been able to get NBC to air for you? NBC? CBS? FOX? Or songs you written played on your favorite local FM station?
Being a regulated industry, using the public airwaves, does not a common carrier make.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Some AI generated works shouldn't be public
Automatically licensing Copilot-developed code under the GPL (the author being the general public) would solve the problem.
The GPL is a copyright license, and the general public cannot hold a copyright. So it doesn't work for the general public to license a work under the GPL, either.
And it turns out that none of those people seem to be showing up here to talk about how this is egregious censorship from a social media company or how these bans shouldn’t be protected by Section 230 or whatever.
So, once again, Mike Parson looks incredibly ignorant, and completely unwilling to take responsibility. And the more he does so, the more this story continues to receive attention.
Experts make up a tiny percentage of the populace. The truth is a really hard barrier to success. But it takes experts to verify the intricacies of the truth.
If you want to make it in politics, improving the factual state of things is much harder than making people distrust the experts. And more and more politicians are adopting the latter strategy.
Mike Parson may look incredibly ignorant to you. But you are not part of a nondisposable majority. And in a nation where education boards tell teachers regularly that they have to treat the knowledge about God's creation in writeups from 3000 years ago as equivalent to knowledge about God's creation gained since then, mistrusting experts is quite natural.
Weird how they couldn't ask Maricopa SO if they could borrow a drone, since they had 56 of them as of last summer.
Four Inspire 2's, sixteen M300's, eight Matrice 210's, and 28 Mavic 2s (four Zoom's, twelve Pro's, and twelve Enterprise Zoom's)
So, this incident that they need the drones for, happened inside Maricopa county, and yet 56 drones did nothing. What do they think PhoenixPD adding a few more would do?
Last I checked, they don't come with a 'time rewind' feature, where you can go fly one where it happened and then have it record what happened hours earlier.
BTW, I checked out the map. It's almost exactly 6 miles direct from Phoenix PD HQ to the incident (and a 7.7 mile drive). It is 8.8 miles to Glendale PD's HQ.
Distance from the incident to Maricopa County SO? 2.9 miles - its almost mid-way between the incident and the Phoenix PD HQ.
(anyone that knows the area, it's right by the Marshals and fed-ex distribution centers between broadway and buckeye just east of the 202)
A modern webapp might do that, but "10 years ago" pretty much precludes a Javascript-based client-side React-type application. I'm trying to think of any sort of design that'd result in anything other than the record being viewed appearing in the rendered page, and frankly the only thing that comes to mind is something as stupid as the server code being powered by an Excel spreadsheet using VBA to translate the sheet into HTML (which would require a degree of deliberation and malice that I really don't want to think about).
It's sort of a consolation price that for once, it's not Germany that started a World War. It's not much of a consolation, mind you. The disappointing thing is that if it walks like a Nazi and quacks like a Nazi, it is any of a number of current-day politicians in a whole lot of countries. If it is wearing brown shirts with a swastika, it is a movie villain or a moron.
It's really really disappointing that all you need to do these days is leave the shirt behind and you are fit for society and politics again. As if the shirts were the problem.
Sort of an aside here, but what kind of "drones" are they even talking about? "Drone" can mean just about anything, especially as it is a misnomer in the first place. Specialized quadcopters, big-ass fixed-wing stuff?
Is this maybe also on purpose? Given the fire department also wants drones, i would guess those might tend toward quad-style. But the Times doesn't say. i hope it isn't left wide open and flexible as to what is an allowable drone, or the cops would probably have remote-operated F16s out of mothball or surplus.

"During this incident was determined for the safety of our officers drone would need to be utilized to neutralize the situation."
Please explain to the class how this would have worked out.
I mean adding yet another distraction during an event where your officers were already in over their heads despite being better armed than most 2nd world nations.
Were you just gonna strap a bomb on it and crash it into the bad guys?
Maybe get one that can hold a 9 mm & fire?
I mean y'all freaked out over 1 event, but don't seem to have a problem with them abusing citizens, violating their rights, and ambushing people who dare think the PD isn't treating people fairly or legally.
Don't worry, we've arranged for them to learn how the surveillance capabilities work by spying on council members in a rotating schedule & releasing the recording to the public.
Users are not Infrastructure, and a new service can replace and old one, Just ask MySpace. Note also, while you have a right to publish your words at your own expense, you have no right to force somebody else to publish them at their expense, or force an audience to listen to your words.
Reporters may result in you being misinformed, while politicians who do not research a topic will pass bad laws. Just look at how many laws are being proposed that will restrict free speech on the Internet, or had it over to extremist ass holes.
It's a sad experience to lose your money to these wallets...I lost mine to Paxful in Dec 2021. A huge amount was stolen but I was lucky to recover it back after weeks of mails with no positive response from Paxful. I finally met a tech guy who tracked and recovered my trading $ with my stolen coin. If you have a similar issue, you can reach out: Jimfundsrecovery at consultant dot com.
What's the problem? Congress will be sending its "thoughts and prayers" to swat tank-launched missiles, it will be downing Russian aircraft with its strongly worded calls for restraint, and it will be unstoppably crippling Putin's resolve with its unbreakable commitment to finger waggings of the highest order.
