This was obviously an emotional response to vent off, and taking in consideration how much more harmful the US has become in recent times, it should be understandable.

The US starts wars over resources, including pertroleum/gas. So your chart supports my idea to some degree. Besides, why did you miss the point of me being polemic? Wasn’t it obvious that this was an emotional response and not a factual one? This is a rhetorical question. I’m not interested in a deeper discussion, you’ve misunderstood that. I was just venting off steam.

Guns, violence and death are the primary exports of the US. It’s time to show them the door and deny all US citizens entry to any country in the world.

There are multiple major flaws with watermarks for texts:

1. Their method only works for longer texts as it relies on statistical effects that aren’t clear enough to detect in a very short text.
2. They are resting their approach on an incorrect assumption: their models prefer certain words and if they appear more frequently than in a random text, they assume it’s generate by their model. But who says texts are random? Out of billions of people there will be some who have a similar preference for some words and their texts will always be wrongfully accused of AI-generated just because they happen to have a similar word choice preference. The shorter the texts the likelier that issue becomes.
3. There will soon be tools that replace a random amount of words with synonyms automatically and therefore remove any chances of detecting the watermark.

Microsoft is unaware that students need a reliable device, this also means a stable OS which they can’t offer.

Oh, I don’t care if they care about me. The attention of my comment was to express how unimportant YouTube has become for me.

I know of PeerTube and like the concept. Out of my 57 subscribed channels only 2 are available via PeerTube, 4 more are available on other sites. I hope this will improve. I’m not using the normal YouTube interface. I’ve customised it to my needs with injected scripts plus additional cosmetic blocking, e.g. I filter out unwanted search results and removed all shorts. For now it works well enough. Anyway, I’m already in the process of reducing YouTube consumption.

No, I don’t see them and the day I cannot block ads anymore is the day I am going to stop using YouTube. It’s really not that important to life.

In instances where there is no legal way to watch something piracy hurts nobody as the company would not have made money from me anyway. It doesn’t even hurt the artists, the refusal of the distributer to offer content worldwide is the real scandal that everyone in the creative industry should tackle.

They should be classified as terrorist organisation and in case any of those fuckers steps on European soil, they should be arrested and trialed as war criminal. Fuck those fucking assholes, I hope everyone of the ICE staff dies the most painful death.

US government is prioritizing killing civilians, so it makes sense that they don’t care about health.
