"Tech crypto grifter says thing to grift people with crypto, tech or both. More at 11"

Although i cant imagin any sign of a pullback would be good for any of the companies in the AI bubble. While probably not important on the specifics of what he is saying it is a "we should slow down" which the market aint gonna like. No breaks on this gravy train Sammy boy!

'Fuck you, Bambu': How one private message could change the face of 3D printing

Reply in thread

But how the slicer connects to their propriatry cloud service is under the AGPL. That is the part that has been copied.

Due to the original Slic3r software being AGPL and Bambu studio being a copy of Slic3r it is also under the AGPL.

So Jarczak has only copied code that is under the AGPL. As mentioned in the article, the only bit of security bambu had was a name in the commands sent saying that the command came from Bambu Studio, it wasent encrypted, it wasent locked down it is right there in the code.

Now, Bambu could change their security to have a proper auth handshake with the cloud services, that would lock this method off because it wouldnt matter if the code is out in the open for all to see, you would still need to log in. But Bambu didnt do this, they just tried to legally gag someone instead.

That is why people are up in arms.

Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification"

Agree 100%. It is just Disclosure, if you use AI for voice lines on a robot character but the game is good then disclosing that "this game used ai during creation" isnt a bad thing, you used a tool for a tool to help make your game. I dont think disclosure hurts you.

If your game is a simple asset swap of a unity demo and you used 10 prompts to generate all the story, dialogue and sky boxes then disclousing you used ai is simple a branding iron on a pile of shit. The branding iron aint changing the smell of your pile.

There is a lot of inbetween these 2 extreams, but the consumer havung more information in the buying process is not a bad thing.

Australia and New Zealand need it. UV index reguarly hits 13 in summer. You feel your skin prickel just standing in it for a couple of minutes.

I think i saw it on lemmy a couple of weeks back. A dermatologist convention in Hawaii. The dermatologists were enjoying the sun in full bodysuits, im betting they definatly think this is a good idea.

UK moves to ban smoking for everyone born after 2008

I think you are thinking of New Zealand. The push didnt fail because it was tough, it failed because one of the political parties currently in power ( New Zealand First) has Phillip Morris lobbyists so far up its ass they are breathing for two.

New Zealand First had the law reverted and then Casey Costello, who is Associate Health Minister, gave tax breaks to companies offering "heated tobacco products" which is only Phillip Morris.

Lifted a ban on vapes without removable batteries so Phillip Morris could release their HTP

And the only thing in this blatent corruption scandel that they got in the neck was the handling of some fudged numbers and dodgy conclusions that Miss Costello says she "had no idea where they came from"

Fucken corupt basterds the lot of them

Like google and stack overflow before it AI is a tool. If you use any of these and stop researching after the tool gives you an answer, researching to understand why the answer works in the first place, then any of these tools will make you lazy.

But you are human and it is imposible to understand everything so choose your battles.

Also, dude, your setup sounds sick as hell and this is a fantastic writeup. Thank you.
