Honestly, AI could be the tool that helps him break through and finish his series. It’s ridiculous that he’s suing OpenAI instead of using their tools to help him power through and finally finish what he started almost three decades ago.
Do you not use it with WSL?? I’ve found the experience is almost identical to linux.
You don’t even need a hacked version. Just use an older version. Besides, Firefox is open source, I’m sure someone would fork off an adblock allowed version.
My understanding is that the letter he and Mila wrote in defense of Danny was after Danny was found guilty. They were asking for a more lenient sentence.
You could use onedrive/Google drive and share the video via a link. They both have in browser playback.
Except for the fact that they’ve said for the entire existence of chatgpt that it’s a free research preview.
I think they’re just trying to get people hooked, and then they’ll start charging for it. It even says at the bottom of the page when you’re in a chat:
Free Research Preview. ChatGPT may produce inaccurate information about people, places, or facts. ChatGPT August 3 Version
Very possible, I’ve maintained about the same weight the last few years while losing fat and gaining muscle.
It just takes one person posting a comment to start a conversation. No one wants to be the first to comment, but once someone gets it started others chip in.
I thought that too, but now I have a wireless mouse, keyboard, and ear buds and it’s amazing. You never have to worry about the slight tension from a cord, or what the cord will bump into. Complete freedom. The battery on my Logitech keyboard lasts about 3 months before it needs to be recharged.
So basically radio? It would still be limited by the speed of light, you would have nanoseconds (or microseconds?) of latency!
It’s an emotional issue for many Americans, as so much of our lifestyle is based on ready and abundant access to fossil fuels. I would say many are currently in the first stage of grief, “denial”.
Replaceable batteries were great. I could keep phones going for years until Samsung started pumping out bloated software updates that slowed them down.

Humans die in car crashes all the time. It’s one of the leading causes of premature death. If a self driving car is proven to have a statistically lower rate of accidents than a human, then that’s enough for me. A microprocessor can make much quicker decisions than a human, it’s just a matter of giving it the right information (cameras, lidar, radar).
I don’t have more information on this particular company’s dealings with law enforcement, but I certainly think it’s reasonable to be concerned.
I see your point, if the company is ok with handing data without a warrant, then they might as well be a surveillance company for the police. That may or may not be the case for these companies at the moment, but there’s nothing stopping them from changing their mind tomorrow.
I also think most cars can’t be stopped dead with a traffic cone, so these protesters are highlighting the unpredictable and sometimes dangerous behavior of these vehicles in mixed traffic.
This is another fair point, and I think you’re right that it does highlight a deficiency in these vehicles.
I think self driving tech has a lot of potential to save lives in the future if it can perform better on the road than humans. But I do agree with you now that maybe it’s good that the protestors are highlighting some of the glaring issues that are popping up along the way.
Can you give a better source than the original article that the cars are being used as surveillance for law enforcement? The original article had this to say:
It also claims that they’re partnering with police to record everyone all the time without anyone’s consent.
To me that seems very biased. I found another article that seems a little more nuanced (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-29/self-driving-car-video-from-waymo-cruise-give-police-crime-evidence?leadSource=uverify%20wall).
It says that police need a warrant to access footage, just like any other cctv you might find at a brick and mortar business, which are also filming you at every street corner 24/7.
In December 2021, San Francisco police were working to solve the murder of an Uber driver. As detectives reviewed local surveillance footage, they zeroed in on a gray Dodge Charger they believed the shooter was driving. They also noticed a fleet of Waymo’s self-driving cars, covered with cameras and sensors, happen to drive by around the same time.
Recognizing the convenient trove of potential evidence, Sergeant Phillip Gordon drafted a search warrant to Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo, demanding hours of footage that the SUVs had captured the morning the shooting took place. “I believe that there is probable cause that the Waymo vehicles driving around the area have video surveillance of the suspect vehicle, suspects, crime scene, and possibly the victims in this case,” Gordon wrote in the application for the warrant to Google’s sister company.
Back to your other point - people are free to be upset at our car based society. I just think it’s arbitrary to take it out on driverless cars when it’s our entire society they seem to have a problem with. They’re free to protest however they see fit, my opinion is still that it seems hypocritical.
Presumably then the protestors have already given up their pocket cameras and make no use of the road network?
You’re right, I had glossed over that part. The first point seems like an issue, the second and third just seem like normal life in the US. Most roads here are made for cars, and people should already expect that if you’re in public you can or will be recorded, as recording in public is a first amendment right, and everyone already has a camera in their pocket.
