It’s a load of bullshit, for a start the ISP has my details and should be able to attest my connection is rented by someone of legal age and it should be up to me what I let my children (assuming I have any) see and not see on that connection. I already had to click the “yes just give me the porn damn it” agreement on my mobile phone which was less likely to be randomly shared unmonitored and now this overbearing crap. I’ll just avoid sites and services that require this.
I personally manage my services using ansible, I only set up the actual infrastructure, the virtual machines that run the services, with terraform/opentofu. Docker is one of those in the middle tech between infrastructure and software distribution and it makes more sense to me to treat a service as a role in ansible do I can deploy it (docker, podman package install or whatever), sort it’s networking and handle it’s configuration all in one place. I’m not saying the way you do it is wrong, but this is just a step down the automation rabbit hole.
It doesn’t appear your setup provisions the actual hosts for docker so I guess you are provisioning manually for that layer? That is another area you might want to leverage opentofu for?
Also congrats on actually documenting it in a consumable way for others to learn from.
Exactly. It isn’t clear if duckstations author really has permission from all contributors or rewrote those contributions he didn’t have rights to change the license on. If he didn’t then technically even the latest version is still GPL but it’s fairly murky and I doubt shy sane person wants to fork it and have all that drama.
I think this should have been anticipated after the license change.
Depends on jurisdiction and what you torrented. Is the US uniformally militant on torrents?
Title is a misnomer, at no point was his life at risk because the ball never had enough energy to reach him on the swing back… Which of course was the point of the demonstration.
I don’t see this as rotten behaviour at all, I see it as a Bobby tables moment teaching an organisation relying on a technology that they better have a their ducks in a row.
Players gaming a system using dumb AI bots that don’t do proper thinking. What a shocking development that absolutely no one could have seen coming.
I think you hit the nail on the head where this is heading by questioning the final costs. Currently “AI” development is burning through insane piles of money and energy and no one is really paying a significant cost to use it… It’s a loss leader at the moment but it’s unclear if there are many uses for it if it were to be full price. Is it going to be another voice assistant situation where people like usi g it but it’s actually really hard to make any money off it directly?
Triple A games are often over funded and under deliver in experience in my recent experience. A little less funding might tighten up some of waste and deliver better games.
And they invested knowing that piracy was a thing and figured that into their calculations regard to the risk vs potential return. If they didn’t get that right and end up with a loss, well, that’s capitalism for you.
Copyright is the antithesis of free market by allowing a monopoly on distribution and exploitation of some resource.
Some parts of the gaming industry did, the vast majority still won’t provide content drm free.
If they could figure a way to make you pay without providing any service at all they absolutely would.
Frankly I’m horrified that it would go that way and wasn’t aware there were cases like this with sound alike voice actors unless the voice was misleading stated to be of someone it wasn’t.
Do they pay people for use of their voice when they get a cheaper voice actor in who sounds just like them?
Remember how a few years ago 3d displays and VR were being shoved in everyone’s faces? I can see the current “AI” trend going the same way.
There is more than one type of water, but unless your IoT device is a fusion reactor it’s probably just running off the normal blend.
Your average computer user is mainly using it for interacting with various web based services and playing media. Don’t need good input methods for that so tablets are a cheaper and easier to maintain alternative to a laptop.
You aren’t wrong, it is the government’s ham fisted and poorly thought out legislation… I fact the last government’s that this one inexplicably pushed on with despite it not being anything like a priority for the electorate. I’m frankly shocked at how many unforced errors this government is making given how “not being as rubbish as the last lot” was not a high bar to clear.
