Coalitions are literally the primary way the rest of the world avoids devolving into the US’s corrupt two-party system. It’s proven quite effective.

If that could be combined with RCV in more countries (or US states), then it could far more strongly prevent the consolidation of political parties and return more power to the people themselves.

I had to read that a couple of times before I understood what you are trying to say. At first glance, it seemed like you were calling democracy itself bourgeois, but I think you meant it as a specific thing that isn’t actual democracy… e.g. it’s an illusion of democracy because capitalism gives the wealthy the ability to steer the whole ship, as it were. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.

The “good” news is that Piranha Bytes isn’t involved in that one.

They’ve been like this for decades.

That Apple has any say whatsoever over competing App Stores means they are shirking both the letter and intent of EU law.

In that case, I didn’t misinterpret you, either. You argued in favor of labor theft.

Yeah. There is no left wing party here. Decades of right wing propaganda have convinced our populace of the Ingsoc motto. 😭

Can we have some of this in the US, please? While we still exist.

Why do you care so much about defending unimaginably wealthy corporations stealing the labor of regular people?

See, now we have both misrepresented each others comments.

This is why I focus on distribution rather than training. If you commercialize a model trained on things you don’t own/license, and it generates anything remotely infringing, you should be fully on the hook for every single incident.

But if a model is trained and distributed freely as FOSS, then it’s up to anyone running it to ensure the output is not infringing. This protects fair use while also ensuring that big companies tread more carefully when redistributing models that can violate fair use by competing with those whose work was trained on without permission and are subsequently being emulated without permission.

ChatGPT 4o is the top dog right now, by a lot.

Flawless Ultrawide can also be used to fix most of those things, but in either case, EAC will block you from online play… which is, like, half the fun of a FS game.

The gameplay is perfect. But how about just fixing the PC version with some basic things like…

1. A setting to disable chromatic aberration.
2. Fix the broken ultrawide support.
3. Add remappable keybinds.
4. Unlock the framerate.
5. Add DLSS and FSR.

You know, basic, fundamental PC features.

Mac has always felt more like mine than Windows. Nothing has changed there.

And neither holds a candle to the pure, blinding, white light that is Linux. GNOME, KDE, the world is your oyster and the desktop is your choice.

Series S strikes again.

With interest?

Stop giving them ideas!

Not to rain on the parade, but as long as we allow the reality-sized hole that is non-profits owning for-profits, this isn’t something I can get terribly excited about.

Ultrawide support? If there were no new content, I would pay just for the ultrawide support.

Except it will be infected with a Ubisoft launcher and Denuvo malware and I do not pay for anything with Denuvo filth in it.
