For those who don't know the song, the song narrates what a person who has just heard from the news from a sobbing news anchor, that the world has 5 years to live and there is nothing anyone can do, and how this knowledge breaks some people and how it haunts and makes people think of what they can do for the next 5 years moments after hearing the news.

That is the song they chose to back a Pro AI Optimism Ad.

I will still wait for the Linux Port of Playnite.Link . It is awesome on windows and is OSS, and they are finalizing a complete Linux rewrite as we are speaking so during the next release, Playnite 11, the Linux version should come out. Themeable, Extensible, and it has a good community.

Its not "Search and Siezure" it is "Searches" and "Siezures". It violates the "Searches" part and the only way to work around is a warrant. A "search" is not only to search a person's house, but to subject a person to being followed and tracked day in and out needs a Judicial Warrant in most circumstances because you are violating the subjects right to privacy.

In the case of Flock they could set up cameras and have trained people watch them, and that is iffy at that, but once it is autommatically stored and cataloged everything everyone does and where they go, and can be used to unwind everything a person does quite litterally like Big Brother, and then you can put that in a data base where the police can litterally do fishing expeditions after the fact to make a case, or the AI can just spit out a name that got a well known car reviewer seconds away from getting his life ended by a police officer because it mixed his plate with annother, that is an entirely different kettle of fish.

I is like the famous saying of the head of the Polish Secret Police "You show me the man and I will show you the crime". It is because of this you have a right to not talk to the police and legally speaking any little thing you say or respond to "...can and will be used against you in a court of law.". If you try hard enough you can come up with multiple crimes for anyone.

Can someone check on Mr Sweeny. I'm Serious. I think he is showing cult like behavior for an industry that is due to implode any day now.

Technically correct, which is the best kind of correct. I have not read the books so I am just going by memory of the movie franchise which I haven't seen since it first came out (and I have Long Covid) so the finer points of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and The Silmarillion(Thank you spellcheck for that one) are not at my fingertips.

Considering the Death and Destruction of the real world Palantir, not to mention the evil use of general control and aid in creating a police state on purpose to the point that its employees have at several points have opened up large discussions that basically say "Are we the baddies???" I think the evil version of the Palantir shown in the films is the best analogue.

Anyway updating my post now.

If you are attacking the Catholic Pope for being a foreign agent of Communism... You might be the Antichrist. If you back the company that is named after the all-seeing orb turned evil from The Lord of the Rings... You might be the Antichrist. If you obsessively see any opposition or person trying to fight the climate crisis as "The Antichrist"... You might be the Antichrist. If you think Freedom, Democracy, and Governments are the enemies of good... You might be the Antichrist. If you think being against fascism is a bad thing... You might be the Antichrist. If you think humanity shouldn't exist anymore because you believe in Transhumanism and not humanism... You might be the Antichrist.

I'd like to see you make a RAR file with that Right Click Menu.

[–] WolvenSpectre@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

While both are Archive Programs, WinRAR does a bunch of things that 7Zip does not and some things 7Zip does better, as 7Zip does a couple of things that WinRAR doesn't and a few things that WinRAR doesn't do as well as 7Zip.

Also depending on what you are archiving WinRAR does it better for various things, where 7Zip tends to work better at Raw Data and certain Data Structures.
