F1 cars are not fun to drive

> To my knowledge reverse engineering is legal.

This is not correct. Some types of reverse engineering are legal.

> As is emulation. Which means there should be no legal issues with getting the source code of a binary executable, and then modifying it to work on another system.

These are actually two of the exceptions. You CAN reverse engineer it to make it operative but that doesn't mean you can distribute the re-engineered binary.

They could have released a patching mechanism that used the original binary, but just releasing the re-engineered binary is illegal.

Do you have no shame?

Why do you believe that binaries have different rights to any other creative work? Given that object code can be protected under copyright and substantial similarity is the threshold for copyright claims what makes you think that this is legal?

Yeah? If I print out a pdf and then scan it back in, it doesn't matter what process was followed to end up with an identical end product.

Well I just judged that I won this argument, so I've won and nothing can take that away.

It in fact didn't win, you are commenting underneath an article laying out that it didn't win.

Fraud commits fraud using fraud tool because they don't have the skills to win competition and are too lazy to develop them.

Sounds like a sloppy way to win to me.

You keep claiming its high quality, but the experts involved disagree, so all that means is that you are easily impressed by slop.

Sure, go for it.

I've always wondered if people who work for Meta/Twitter/whoever think that the Nuremberg defense is valid

They weren't publicly facing, but the website was just a very thin wrapper that exposed a SAS server (I believe) to queries from the internet.

And if you are at all familiar with SAS, you will understand how trivial command injection is.

Anyone else's extensions not work on support.mozilla.org?

I mean if I'm forgetting, how would I know, but I've never woken up for the first time with any experience of having dreamt.

I sometimes experience dreams when I go back to sleep repeatedly, but in all normal circumstances it is nothing

Ban smart phones for kids.

Yup, that's exactly what was happening.

You don't need to think about it anymore, just crawl back into the hole, cover yourself with that nice big rock.

~200 of the 350 come from a suit brought against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The rest are probably true in a sense but not written down like those are.

> I was a bit confused about the colors - at least once the text talks about blue tiles being the ones that don't need to be checked because of the landmark, but they are actually green, and the blue ones are the ones that weren't checked anyway

I think the first demo in the introduction is supposed to have some blue but the default setup for some reason doesn't. If you move the landscape over to the other side you can see some blue appear.

It's just momentum at this point. It had a massive advantage with games and office software but those are mostly gone at this point.

You're right, it is arguably worse than book burning, not only are they seeking to deprive others of the books, they also want to profit off it.

It's also on youtube, so you can watch if you are so inclined.

Really? I suppose you'll be able to provide proof that people were forcibly taken?

I don't call my Ikea furniture hand-built.

Yeah I'm sure those 4 lines of code are a big ask.

Probably a firefox bug but the interface hit boxes are misaligned when fullscreen

That does not appear to have a million lines of code

The chart is complete and utter slop. But I guess their aligned AI didn't tell them that making up data is "not good" so how could they have known.

So is it for latency or is it for cost?

Why did you lie 11 days ago, 3 days after the fix went in, about the cause of excess token usage?

Okay, I'll ring back tomorrow and we'll continue
