I’m surprised it took a week to see this reporting pop up.

Apparently ice has been targeting tribe elders, too

This feels like a self report.

Pretty sure someone was able to pose as a PI and get paid access a while ago.

Darknet Diaries had an episode on it

Important to note that it isnt just ads. Any app on your phone with location permission can share it, including some OEM aps qnd bloatware depending on the phone.

If you dont want to be seen, dont take your phone. About the only reasonable way to be sure your data isnt being collected is to not create the data in the first place.

Stay safe out there.

I’m geeking out about this - time to get weirdly into origami

Me? Mate, you’re the one who was shadowboxing nobody.

GTFO with this antagonistic bullshit.

Anarchists can have ideological disagreements with MLs without deepthroating western interpretations of eastern European events

This meme is giving me PugJesus vibes - hope that guy is doing ok.

If I ever won the lottery I would dedicate my life to fucking with the business practices of cloud-connected appliance companies, data brokers, and DRM protected media companies.

Death to Samsung.

I saw it here

The Nigerian government also confirmed the US attack on Friday. The Foreign Ministry stated that such operations were part of ongoing security cooperation with the US, which had led to “precision strikes on terrorist targets” in the northwest of the country

It should be mentioned that the Nigerian government says they requested the strike

This is really great, thank you for sharing!

Trump being embarrassed for people thinking he had a gay relationship makes him homophobic

Affirming that embarrassment by making it the butt of the joke makes the joke homophobic

Hope that helps.

The implication is that it would be embarrassing for him to have had a gay relationship.

Trump not wanting people to think that he’s gay is the other half of the homophobia, and by making that the butt of the joke, we’ve affirmed it.

yea, I guess I was thinking 1tb was at least a manageable size for a homebrewer, especially if you were only interested in archiving the top 1 or 2 million songs.

It’s still not a casually sized torrent by any means, but it’s a lot more manageable than 300tb. If you’re someone who wants to archive that much media, you probably have enough tech literacy to manage several torrent clients. The article also says they’re willing to make individual songs available on their website, “if people are interested in it”.

Huh, when I read the press release I thought it was saying they were going to break them down into smaller chunks sorted by popularity

“They lied” implies intent to deceive.

I’m still not arguing against their disqualification, I’m saying people need to lay off the sauce - it’s not hard to imagine how this could have been accidental and not malicious.

We don’t need to torch an effigy every time a studio mentions AI in an interview.

Still, there’s a lot of room there for some grace. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to strip them of the award, but the level of outrage I’m seeing in this thread and elsewhere isn’t proportionate to the offense.

People really need to chill with this.

People keep saying the problem ‘wasnt that they used AI placeholder assets, it’s that they lied on the disclosure’, but boy does that still seem like a reach

When you have dozens of people working on a huge creative project, it would take an almost omniscient creative director to know where every asset in every scene came from with certainty. It isn’t hard to imagine a designer somewhere on the team sneaking an AI asset into a pre-release build and forgetting about it. The fact that it was later disclosed suggests that whoever was applying for the award wasn’t aware of that asset being used and then replaced at the time of submission.

I dont mind having some awards dedicated to genAI-free works, but people really need to stop getting their pitchforks out at every mention, otherwise they risk turning into a lynch mob. This doesnt sound like an intentional omission to me.
