I have frequently and repeatedly blamed Obama and Biden for many things, and as citation I give you Slashdot. You may crawl and/or search it at your leisure. Unfortunately there's no really convenient way to view a user's posting history any more; once upon a time when this was a better place, you could buy a subscription to bypass the last ad that you couldn't turn off due to good karma, and be able to search? or at least page back into the past of your own posting history.

At very best, he is an instrument of destruction of the country I live in, and so at very best I find him impossibly inconvenient. And he is not the best in any way.

I think Humpty Trumpty is of approximately average intelligence, and his superpower is being unburdened by approximately zero morals from any source which don't involve self-promotion. One can only imagine he received that mindset directly from his father, who was famously much the same person that he is, but unempowered by television due to some quite infamously memed shortcomings in the charisma department.

But I do not agree that his destructive actions are in any way coincidental or accidental, and I also do not believe that he is stupid or insane enough to not realize that he's doing nothing but damage. I think that's giving him too much of an out. Is he demented, yes. Is he being manipulated, yes. Is he complicit, yes. He always did terrible things. He doesn't need to be demented, syphilitic, or manipulated to be terrible, even though he may be all of those things.

All citizens benefited, as did many noncitizens, but some benefited a lot more than others.

Whoa there.

That paperwork was selective about who was actually a citizen, and any definition of citizen which doesn't include the right to vote in an alleged democracy including republics is absolute repugnant horseshit. Let us not pretend there was some golden age when America kept all of its promises.

I agree with you.

I don't agree with this on two levels, both directly and indirectly. Directly, no, something better could come out of the status quo with less suffering than this not just has caused, but would continue to cause even if it were stopped from doing deliberate harm today. Indirectly, no, I don't think we can reasonably expect to get something better than we had out of what is happening now.

To wit, this regime's actions are harming not only our present, but also our future. We could have had a revolution that didn't threaten our actual existence by turning our last allies against us for allowing this to happen.

I agree with every other part of your comment, but celebrating tearing it all down because you think that's the best way in which we could have proceeded is some selfish asshole shit.

Click bait is where you bury a stupid lede.

"Right, but they're suing over copyright infringement, not trademark infringement. They're using only using the trademark infringement to prove that the copyrighted works were encoded/copied into the training data."

If your description is accurate then in fact they do need to show the trademark infringement because it is part of their argument.

"Why or why not?"

In your specific example here, what matters is first whether or not the result is sufficiently similar to infringe on Nike's trademark, and second whether there was intent.

I support them whether I believe that's a fact or not.

I don't believe you're not a maggot, though.

The amusing thing to me is that you're blaming Trump for this, and who you really need to be blaming is Obama and Biden, and basically all of the previous administrations of our time.
Trump is a symptom of a disease, not a cause of it.

Let's not forget Leon violating his student visa.

Thanks for getting what I said about paper, too. Some people will stop [thinking] at nothing to find something to which they might object.

I hear they have a treatment for your tyrant defense syndrome, it involves sticking a light bulb up your ass and injecting bleach.

The answers are continually getting worse, too. If you ask it about anything technical it will hallucinate functionality that doesn't exist! Go to this settings page, click this thing... it's not there! It also refuses to answer any questions which are actually interesting, and it absolutely refuses to provide useful numbers or percentages. What a festering worthless pile of shit Google has created there.

Nope, you just proved you're not missing any important context there, because you got it.

If you don't think the medium matters then there's no potential for a meeting of minds here. It matters to people who aren't you, and you can either accept that or not.
