Wouldn't that create a bad incentive to not report crime then? Seems like the right response is to have the police/CPS act properly than to try and hold Karen's accountable.

Re:Crypto.com mistakenly sent a customer $7.2M instead of a $68 refund

Had the recipient bought cryptocurrencies with the proceeds, I wonder how much harder that would be to claw back. Could they still come out on top if they sell the house they bought for a profit?

What a dramatic response to what amounted to a slap on the wrist for his flagrant disregard for the law. The man is smart enough to make millions breaking the law, he will be just fine after serving some time.
Re:LaMDA is not sentient
on Monday June 13, 2022 @02:00PM (#31729059)
I think that proving sentience is much harder than simply demonstrating something imitating it. Giving the AI additional freedoms would be way more telling.
How would it behave if it could send messages without being prompted? Does it message you when its lonely? If it truly has feelings and is responding to them then it should be acting upon its desires and modifying its behavior to achieve what it wants .
Basically the ex-machina test.

Re:Nintendo ‘Mario Movie’ Leaks: DMCA Used to Suppress Spoiler Discussion

Is it only copyright infringement while the information is supposed to be secret? Seems weird that once the movie or show airs, it wouldn't be copyright infringement anymore.

I had my heroin addicted friend explain it to me: they add it because when others hear about the overdose, they will think that it was someone who couldn't handle a potent dose of heroin, not that it was fentanyl. Effectively they go looking for the supposedly potent heroin, advertised by the overdose.

Conspiracy theorist logic: Its a long con. Hitler is just fine in South America, albeit missing his jaw and piece of his skull. Pieces of evidence intentionally left for misdirection.

"Levels of PM2.5 were measured before, during, and after 8 cannabis social-smoking sessions in one 20-m2 household living room"
Isn't the amount being smoked relevant? It seems to vaguely compare weed smoke to cigarette smoke without factoring in what normal usage looks like for each. How does this compare to burning incense? Seems like a poorly designed study.
