  • Even that tariff thing can be positive for us already. At least here in Germany, big Hollywood productions snag a lot of public funding, because they produce a small amount of the film in Germany. That money could’ve gone to smaller, national productions (that actually need the money) instead and maybe, if Hollywood has a disincentive to produce outside of 'Murrica, that funding can actually go to someone who needs it.

    Or they’ll just fund the same lame ‘comedy’ films with the same jokes, same directors and same actors as the last 20 years again. Because why would they ever take a risk on sth new and creative, if the same old works just about well enough

    Schon faszinierend, dass sich sowohl das angelsächsische "tongs“ und „tongues“, als auch das deutsche „Zange“ und „Zunge“ sich so ähneln.

    Fast so, als ob die Sprachen verwandt sind.

    Oder es ist einfach nur Zufall. Wer weiß das schon? Ich jedenfalls nicht.


  • Even then, AI models (be it text or image) are generally unethically trained (i.e. without consent of the authors/artists of the training material) and have a significant energy consumption, even for single prompts.

    And I do have to ask: To what degree is running your comment through an LLM actually beneficial? You say it improved readability, but how unreadable was your original comment actually, that it would require fixing via external tool?








  • That has been rectified in 2017. iPhones these days do not slow down with new software updates any more than any other phone. They do throttle performance, if the battery is degraded to much but this is both communicated clearly and easily reversed by replacing the battery (even if you do it yourself or have it done by a third party, instead of paying apple’s admittedly high price).

    Apple have plenty of anti-consumer behavior in other places. Treading around on an issue that is older than any currently supported iPhone, however, instead on focusing on current issues (like lack of app sideloading anywhere but in the EU, for example) is not conducive to actually getting Apple (or other corporations) to change their behavior. This battle has already been won.
