The fact that scams persist on blockchain is an unfortunate side effect of the whole uncensorable thing...

Why would CSU know anything about why you, IWW4, want billboards?

Linux users report bugs. I remember an article about it that says that, in their specific situation, Linux users report 6 times more bugs than non-Linux users.

Granted, I'd be annoyed about bug reports that aren't my fault, but still.

Why the hell would you ever want a billboard? Who are you, an advertising executive?

Or they've subtly invalidated everyone's password to force it to be changed, say as a response to a leaked database.

Agreed. This really isn't as simple as "training AI is/is not copyright infringement ".

It isn't like the technology is going away, and if big corporations with huge IP libraries are the only ones that have access... Well that isn't exactly a pleasant world.

That said, creators absolutely deserve to get compensated for their work, especially if an AI is regurgitating recognizable hunks of their art.

The concern is probably that, without going to the official source to check, you can't tell if the addresses actually belong to FitGirl. If you're already going to her site to verify, you didn't need the addresses posted here anyway.

I know it's a meme right now to hate on pizza parties at work, but in a generally positive work environment when things get a little hectic, I really do appreciate not having to think about lunch for a day.

I'm not really that familiar with LN, to be honest. It looks like there's almost $500 million in the network available for transactions (source), and according to this report, there were about 6.6 million transactions in August of 2023.

Not MasterCard or Visa levels, for sure, but also not a 10 minute wait for a transaction to complete either.

Bitcoin has lightning or you could use a chain with faster blocks.

How does it compare to keycloak?

 

The House of Commons is days from passing Bill S-210, a dangerously broad age verification bill that would put an age lock on most of Canada's Internet and threaten every Canadian’s privacy.

Hey Ottawa! Bit of a long shot, but does anyone here know of a Pathfinder Society playgroup in town? I'd love to find one to join. Thanks!
