You never actually said what the alternative is, though.

Man, I could be wrong, but I would venture to guess that the number of people using this has decreased massively. In my teens and 20s I remember religiously scanning my entire MP3 collection through Picard and also gleefully scanning disc IDs into the database. Haven't used MusicBrainz in over ten years at this point.

What is that page? It looks like a "tweet" on The Verge which just links to the actual story.

Except books are already destroyed in physical form every single day. My local library has a section near the front for free and/or extremely cheap books ($1) they are desperately trying to get rid of. My impression is that if they are untaken/unsold they will end up in a dumpster.

[Edit] Here's an article from 2003 talking about how Random House destroyed up to 25,000 books a day: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2002/mar/19/fiction.stephe...

Is that hyperbole or do you know of a specific "AI website" that uses 100% of your CPU?

Thank you for the clarification. Not sure if it was the author's intent but they made it sound like .name will cease to exist.

Perhaps, but there are certainly now catchphrases and words that can indicate it was written with AI i.e. load-bearing, idempotent, etc. Style and structure are in and of themselves, a fingerprint.

Does YouTube in Safari play in background/with the screen off?

But can my daughter, who has a Managed Account, use this?

For that, there's ProTube[1]. On the surface it behaves like YouTube Premium, under the hood it's just the mobile version of YouTube bundled into an iOS app. I have no idea why ads aren't served, I analyzed the network requests with Fiddler Everywhere and saw nothing nefarious.

do we really need breaking news about qwen posted every single day?

to be honest, having to walk inside to use the bathroom or refill your cup of coffee seems like a nice way to stand up and get the blood flowing again + breathe some fresh air.

What was the question?

All of my childhood friends who bragged about being good at GH/RB only ever bragged about being good at the _games_. Never ran in to someone trying to pass it off as being able to play the guitar.

Are we comparing nuclear energy to an LLM?

If I recall correctly most forum software such as phpBB and vBulletin had an option where you could toggle between viewing a thread in nested BBS/Usenet style or the newer linear view.

Put your site behind Cloudflare, enable Bot Fight. Done.

Similar, but it was a very realistic looking photo of a woman in lingerie taking a selfie in a car.

I have used ChatGPT to generate HUNDREDS of photos and I have never once had it bring back violent or sexual content. It does, however, routinely reject certain requests due to me trying to incorporate copyrighted characters. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why does their website seem like a clone of Anthropic's?

Every time I get in my car the Apple Music app prompts me to resubscribe with a full screen popup. Usually it tries 2-3 times before it stops.

Lately whenever I watch movies my remote stays in my hand so I can boost the volume during dialogue and turn it down during loud action scenes. I've had two different soundbars, one of them quite expensive, and it's an issue on both.

ProtonPass

$10k a month on a blog??

Is this real? I examined to their source code and found an exposed TypeScript RPC which indicates the following:

totalMembers: 4954

totalPledged: 5678872

averagePledge: 1146.320549

However the numbers on the website appear to be hardcoded in with very dramatically different numbers.

Anyone remember Google Desktop[1] that had built in search?

I do. I treat ChatGPT output the same as Wikipedia content. I find what I am looking for then immediately open the source to confirm. I would never in a million years take ChatGPT output or Wikipedia content and blindly reference it without doing my due diligence.

...were people doing that? Something tells me this is just dismissive whataboutism.
