Given that anyone can access the posts, I would say that anyone (AI companies) can access the posts.

Voyager works great for me.

I do this on Hyprland all the time, but it’s a tiling window manager. I’m not sure any desktop environments have support for it.

Given the statement was by the US organization NOAA they probably mean night in North America.

That is very strange, I wonder why Fortune feels the need to add that text. Why doesn’t the ‘embed title’ (or whatever it’s called) match the article title?

Why did you add Elon Musk to the headline? I think we all know who runs Tesla, is it really necessary to mention him every time?

I think they meant the comment as a whole doesn’t really make sense, it’s a bunch of technical terms kind of shoved together. If you understand it can you explain what it means?

Advertising screens on gas pumps (with sound too!) are already a thing here and I hate it.

Hallucinations in the article? “This phenomenon occurs because the Moon's apparent size in the sky, due to its proximity to Earth, is roughly the same size as some celestial objects like Mars.” The moon is definitely not the same size as mars in the sky.

Yes but the default state is that you have copyright over your posts/comments, and by sending them to your Lemmy server you are giving them some license to at least distribute the content to others (most services specify what license you are giving them in the ToS, which is where they would say that you are licensing them to sell you shit to AI companies). In theory by specifying the CC-SA-NC license or whatever that should be the license unless your Lemmy instance has some ToS terms that specifically say you’re granting additional privileges to someone by posting.

Whether AI companies actually care (they don’t) is a different story, but if eventually they actually have to follow copyright laws like everyone else then it could matter.

What is the website ToS for different Lemmy instances, and does it really permit commercial use in AI?

NSA is civilian, they work closely with CSS which is the military side. The determining factor for civilian vs military is whether the people working there are enlisted soldiers/commissioned officers or civilians who just get hired like other jobs.

I doubt it’s the price that’s mandated, they probably mean the state mandated minimum coverage.

I looked at the paper they’re talking about (which has not yet been peer reviewed), and I couldn’t find any past peer reviewed research from the author. The paper also doesn’t really explain any of its arguments past referencing sometimes unrelated stuff that “sounds scientific,” so I suspect it will be rejected from any reasonable journal. Some of their graphs seem to have problems and their comparisons to the mass of the Van Allen belts seem questionable. Also radiation belts don’t really “protect earth”.

Writing a news article based on a Arxiv article from an author that isn’t established seems extremely dubious.

Not really, see my other comment on the post for what I think about the article.

The paper also doesn’t really explain any of its arguments past referencing sometimes unrelated stuff that “sounds scientific,” so I suspect it will be rejected from any reasonable journal. One example is the statement that the Van Allen belts protect earth, they are just belts of captured particles that could have been harmful to earth. There have been proposals to eliminate them to protect satellites (see https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/AD1095699.pdf). Also I don’t like how they keep using their quoted van allen belt mass of 180 mg to make other numbers seem very large, what makes the Van Allen belts relevant is their electrons have a lot of energy (moving at >0.2 c), whereas the particulate from reentry is much lower energy. The paper doesn’t explain how lots of low energy particulate is related to a tiny amount of captured high energy radiation, so mass comparisons between them (“a billion times heavier”) don’t make sense.

“The plane is here, everyone get on” (random order) is actually faster than the method they use now, so it wouldn’t take some complex system to increase speeds.

Yeah that’s why I added the ++, the last org I was in had >10k users.

When you’re an enterprise client paying serious money for the service, there are often data protection requirements. They have the capability to support things like export controlled information or HIPAA compliance in office, and appropriate legal agreements ensuring data protection. It’s the power of collective bargaining (they are buying 100s++ licenses instead of just one).

Yeah it depends on what you get but there are definitely options in the last 10 years if you dislike touchscreens (I do, I wish there were more newer cars that don’t slurp up data to sell).
