Even a crapshoot is better than the straight advertisements on Google.

The ones in the picture are hospital socks, presumably from a psych related stay.

Probably the ones outlined here, which you should be aware of, given there are statements from you included in the article: https://docs.beehaw.org/docs/important-questions-decisions-and-reflections/beehaw-lemmy-and-a-vision-of-the-fediverse/

They are probably using the default installed theme, which doesn’t have scalable icons so everything is horribly pixelated. Not sure why it’s still the default, but as you said it’s pretty easy to change.

It’s number 2 for me, after Princess Mononoke.

Because YouTube and Twitch are notorious for reducing ad payments or demontising creators. Have you forgotten about the adpocalypse already? Patreon also increased their fees with very little notice in 2019.

It’d honestly be an idiotic move to not take a video sponsor if they’re offered, because that is guaranteed and likely upfront, supplemental income to support the creation of videos.

Nebula is collectively creator owned, so it’s the only one of those that won’t fuck over creators for more money, but as I said, not a lot of people are paying for subscriptions. It’s small, the per-creator payouts are probably even less than Youtube.

And finally, the real answer: Man’s gotta eat. Simple.

All of that considered, I didn’t even see the sponsor ads you’re complaining about because I have Sponsorblock skip them automatically.

Well you can watch it ad free on Nebula, as linked in the video description. I honestly can’t hate on him for that decision, he needs to eat as much as the rest of us, and unless we’re paying for a Nebula subscription, video sponsors are the only way to do that.

It’s naive to think AI is going to disrupt the status quo from the rich. It’s just going to make the rich richer. Just look at who owns the AI.

It’s not weird at all, he owns a car company.

It’s gonna get a lot worse before then.

Unless it is explicity specified in a contract, no you wouldn’t. Most people don’t.

Is this comic supporting capital punishment?

I’m so confused.

Well that’s not how it works with AI generated text or images. OpenAI can’t copyright anything ChatGPT produces no more than anyone else can.

Are drugs made this way unpatentable, like AI generated images or text aren’t copyrightable?

I am aware of that, but those rules were written before technology like this was conceivable.

That’s something that can currently be done by a human and is generally considered fair use.

That’s kind of the point though isn’t it? Fair use is only fair use because it’s a human doing it, not an algorithm.

This isn’t necessarily a boomer “I hate my wife” meme comment though, right?

It’s healthy in a long-term relationship to discuss things with your partner before doing them. When you communicate healthily, there are quite a few things you wouldn’t just spontaneously decide to do without talking to your significant other. They might have already made plans, they might need the car, they might not want to do the thing but think you should do it, they might remind you that you’re saving for a house deposit or a big trip, so on and so forth.

Cory never misses.

I think both of these assumptions are wrong. I think most apple users are just people who aren’t “computer people” and want an operating system that just works to do the things they want, and are ok with paying extra to not have to worry about drivers or linux/windows issues.

Of course there are apple fanboys, but I don’t think they are the largest subset of users.
