the fine could be huge, but I know that is very unlikely.
the only good thing of a supposed arse-handing would be a big compensation for the fired person, so at least they don't have to worry too much while looking for a new job

I know Unions can be quite different in different countries, so maybe this is not that weird in your area. but if something like this can happen, what's even the point of a union?

I'm still hopeful someone is going to use AI for something interesting, something that would be pretty much impossible without.
Imagine a game like Apex Legends where a stadium announcer is live commenting, calling out player names and things going on in the game.

ah ok, that might make it more interesting. can you give me a song with a good fade out solo so I can get a better idea of what you mean?
I think I prefer unexpected or surprising things like the sudden stop in Queen's We Will Rock You. or the rhythm changes in Katzenjammer's Land of Confusion cover

interesting. I expected the opposite, a longer fade is less dramatic and more boring.

when I read about this topic I often wonder why no one seems to "go after" the people that actually make the laws and take away trans rights, like judges and politicians
all that HP money would mean nothing if we remove the people that let themselves be influenced by it from their powerful positions

personally I am not afraid of nuclear power or the operation of the power plants.
I am worried about safe long term storage of nuclear waste. and the search for a solution on that is quite stagnant

yes a lot of what's out there right now is AI slob trained on stolen art
but the right AI model for the right task can be a useful tool.
most people probably just don't want to put in the effort to use it that way

this doesn't look too bad as a screenshot. maybe the belts just look full because they are 100% efficient..... but its nuclear, so of course it's no good 😆

I know all that.
I guess I just went a bit overboard in pointing out that car exhausts in a garage is a weird example of the harm caused by greenhouse gases and that there is more to greenhouse gas than just CO2

carbon oxides are not the only greenhouse gases, water vapour is also a greenhouse gas if I remember correctly.
so depending on the exact wording and context "some greenhouse gases are not directly harmful to humans" might be correct

I saw this and thought "what about Hitlers book?"
It's not banned, at least here in Germany.
There even is a new "... critical Edition" from 2016, with lots of notes and context by a team of historians.
THAT'S how you handle the bad parts of your history.... with education.

do you want a long list of all the new features and changes when you first launch an app after an update? and it would be unusable until you chose yes or no for every option. even background stuff like "uses new codec to improve video playback performance"?
that might be a bit annoying
