Yes, that is probably their reasoning. I agree with your framing of the two problems, but I’d add a third: It is a large mistake to assume that the person installing the TV (thus agreeing to the ToS) is going to be present whenever it is be

> It’s reasonable to push the burden of procuring that consent onto whoever controls entry to the space, with terms like this. I don’t agree. I think if consent can’t be obtained, the only reasonable action here is to not collect the i

False premise. Many (most?) smart TVs will work without first connecting them to the network.

You still need users to jump through all the hoops of installing the game data files, or you’d be on very shaky ground concerning copyright.

Intent matters in a court of law. A judge or a jury will consider: - did you intend for the data to be destroyed in an eventual search? - probably yes, because you went to the trouble to set up a duress password - is it reasonably that you

Hence why travelers should simply not cross the border carrying sensitive data, ever. The Internet can take that data across the border for you.

What the point of this hypothetical? In real life they would break the lock on your valise and return it to you bound together with tape.

Not in Sweden, as far as science knows. It’s a more likely explanation than orangutans, but not by much.

Folklore’s roots go deeper than a single species. Swedish tradition has it that trolls would replace human babies with their own babies. It does not take a long leap of imagination to to see how this could be used as an excuse for the pract

Thanks for teaching me the word ”litotically”!

In real life, there is no maintenance hatch to punch out , because the elevator manufacturer doesn’t want to be liable for people falling down an elevator shaft or being crushed.

Social workers. Unemployment agency workers.

Nice, thanks for that.

I hear it’s slower? Can you comment on that?

Yes, that’s the case I’m on about. Training notwithstanding, I’m pretty sure downloading the torrent was a crime to begin with.

The idea here is that the frontier labs are no longer willing to risk using the likes of Anna’s Archive, because they have already been held legally liable for that in the past.

Hoping for Putin to get sick is unhelpful. Trump is still in power well past 80, after all. We would do better to plan for a future where Putin rules Russia for another 10-15 years.

That’s probably a factor in why it’s able to maintain such high quality. Though most French commercial media are not bad, either.

I think the corrections are better filed in the linked web app. ;)

The text has a very heavy LLM flavor. Not reading past the third paragraph, sorry.

Those are no fun to a customer. I’d much rather wear the loaner shoes.

See the decline of the graph even before the spring of ’22?

So you’re saying that the linked article’s findings are implausible? Is the article fake, then, in your opinion?

Well, now… I can tell you second hand that catching chicken pox as an adult is no picnic either.

If you have already had shingles as an adult, aren’t you fairly well protected for the next ten years or so, at least? I’d wager that you are one of the people least at risk since your immune system is already primed and readying suppress t

If he lives there until he dies, bulldozing it will be Someone Else’s Problem. If the electrics catch fire and he dies, it’s his own problem. Perfect American solution.

I seem to recall that Doom 3 was unplayable dark on my PC, once upon a time.

I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to use your legal firearms against people in Denmark. Even in a home intrusion event.

That’s the whole selling point of this phone, though. If they had made it easy to sideload Twitter, they might as well not make a phone.

The reason the iPhone takes great photos is probably 95% because of the software. It’s 0% because of the number of pixels, and never was even since their early models. I think the kind of user who gets a detox phone will also get an Instax
