Okay, I’m hooked, I have to know the non-clickbait story

I believe that one was patched a while ago

There are a multitude of established, studied, simple changes that could be made to make things safer for pedestrians with relatively little needed in the way of sacrifice from car designers

Can you share some of these? I had a small stint in the auto design industry and am genuinely curious.

I am not joking lol but I do sometimes forget most people don’t live in this space the same way I do. I think people use these names because the programs themselves are forked often and the software names are very unspecific otherwise. I meant to imply that I was using the main branches of these softwares.

I have this running at home on a used r630 (CPU only). oobabooga/automatic1111 for LLM/SD backends, vosk + mimic3 for tts/stt. A little bit of custom python to tie it all together. I certainly don’t have latency as low as theirs, but it’s definitely conversational when my sentences are short enough.

TL/DW for those of us who don’t learn well from video content?

Yeah I’m really curious what his take is going to be on this one lol. Technically it doesn’t have a layer-2 capable bridge mode like other VPN solutions like openvpn, but that’s about all I can think of. It’s still objectively a virtual network, made private by a keypair exchange.

Probably just blindly paroting something someone told him. Awkward way to learn that one lmao.

I have so many questions

Small fediverse lol

I would guess that it goes off of the lowest common denominator between IP address geo-location & billing address. If either of those say US, google/apple would probably be required not to distribute it.

It is possible to both be anti-chinese government and also want comprehensive privacy laws in the US. Like, I absolutely buy that the Chinese government has access to tiktok data. I, however, don’t think forcing a sale is the right way to deal with any of this. Comprehensive privacy and data collection laws would go much farther towards making it so it doesn’t really matter who owns what.

Not sure if you could get updates to the app over VPN though, that depends on how the stores handle regions.

Specifically, app stores would be required not to host it, so you’d likely have to do updates through some sort of side-loading

unless the bill has changed since the last time I read it, there were fines for hosting the service in US datacenters, and fines for companies allowing US data to exist in non-us datacenters. I don’t think you could interpret the bill as imposing a civil penalty to a user using a vpn and accessing it.

I think most of us blocked it out

costs only an email address and a promise to sign up for a 37% APY credit card.

I thought tiktok came out of music.ly? I didn’t think it had roots in vine.

Always happy to try and productively add to someone’s learning.

I guess I just misunderstood what you were arguing then. For posterity: I believe datasets containing children is fine, datasets containing csam is not, and the legality of generating csam should be left up to psychologists on whether or not it is a societal net benefit. Whichever way is better for children that exist is my vote.

I’m not arguing whether or not it should be legal, I was just offering my first hand experience in regards to the capabilities of these local models since people seem to be confused as to how this actually works.

That would be true, it’d be pretty difficult to build a model without any pictures of children at all, and then try and describe to the model how to alter an adult to make a child. Is anyone asking for that though? To make it illegal to have regular pictures of children in these datasets?
