For sure. I was just giving my experience that teaching worked quite well.

My grandfather taught me about gun safety for as far back as I can remember. He didn't keep loaded guns around where we could get them but that wouldn't have mattered because the number one rule was don't touch them without permission and I never saw any of us kids break it. He also drilled into us not to treat them like toys. They were never gotten out for fun. Only to hunt or practice with. Which is not the attitude I see in many other gun owners.

That it's 7 years old and I can't find a replacement that isn't a downgrade in functionality.

Last one I had was when I turned 21. Which was great, but yea I've been lucky to get a dinner out since then.

A long time ago. Now I just do it on the side but knowing how to fix cars has always been a good "in" to get girls to talk to me but from there I still had to actually get them to go out with me and see where it went. It's not like I was just straight up trading car repairs for sex.

It's not totally de-valued. Being able to fix cars has gotten me laid more than probably anything else.

Yea, that's how mine is too. I fucking hate this thing. At least with mine there's separate lights that are not controlled by the fan I can use.

Ceiling fans should all have physical controls. Shitty 4 button remotes that don't even work half the time don't cut it.

This kid was already reported for threatening a school school shooting last year and the investigation stopped after they asked him if he did that and he said no. It's a fucking joke.

The problem is that they didn't pay for the content they've acquired and they're selling it to others. The creators are not being compensated and may not want to participate in AI development at all. If the creators agree to it then fine but most do not. Just look at what's happening with art. People are scraping all of an artists work to create AI pictures in their style and impersonate them. That's not okay.

I was trying to keep it simple.

I would have paid them by purchasing the iphone and whatever software I used. I paid for the car that transported me. I would have paid for my education. People can also give their work away for free if they want, or be compensated by ads as in the case of Youtube or FOSS.

Current copyright is an utter bastardization of its intended use. Massive corporations are trying to act like they’re fighting for the little guy to own their IP forever. But they buy up all that IP for pennies compared to how they turn around and commoditize it. Then they own all of what society produces in perpetuity. They can sit on their dragon hoards and laugh as they gobble up any new creation that strays too close. And people wonder why everything is a sequel of a sequel of a sequel owned by massive corporations.

What do you think ChatGPT is trying to do? It's already being used to churn out shitloads of garbage content. They're not making things better.

And then you get banned for saying child molesters should die.
