Not many and none that I can think of with deep pockets (besides google). I think the corporate world has almost completely piled on Chrome.

Seconding the request to share your work.

That is an amazing idea you've come up with that I never considered, but now I need it.

I can back this up with experience.

I'm actively running two piholes for years now. About 2/3rds of my traffic does go to the primary and some seem to 'lock on' to using just one, but most devices will swap between the two at their leisure.

From what I've heard, I think that is the officially accepted term from the community that most prefer, or am I behind the times?

People have tested them long term at this point. Outside of a few rare exceptions, there's not a noticeable difference in reliability between shucked drives and 'normal' drives. They're the same stock but just rebranded and have to be cheaper because they're marketed primarily for retail as opposed to enthusiast/enterprise who are willing to pay more.

It is such a shame that you have to jump through extra hoops to get a .cat domain. They could make so much money.

This is actually super super tricky.

So, there's an exemption for 'Transformative' art, and while this is obviously pretty shady, it feels like there's a good chance this would qualify as transformative. Basically, you can't copy an existing photograph you don't own, but you can take an existing person and paint a new original picture of them.

We had a big lawsuit just last year where the Supreme Court clarified the line a bit. In that case, the art was found to be not Transformative, but they did a lot to explain why, and based on that, this would be super likely to fall on the side of 'Legally Allowed'.

As someone who used to be a Java programmer, I can't make any sense of that statement.

I think we've got a bit before we have to worry about another major jump in AI and way longer for an Ultron. The ones we have now are effectively parsers for google or other existing data. I personally still don't see how we feel like we can get away with calling that AI.

Any AI that actually creates something 'new' that I've seen still requires a tremendous amount of oversight, tweaking and guidance to produce useful results. To me, they still feel like very fancy search engines.

Toxic/Radioactive waste is obviously toxic and radioactive, but how bad that really is is kind of overblown especially if you compare it to the harm caused by popular existing methods like coal/etc. When adjusted based on energy produced, there's more than one study out there showing how Nuclear is significantly safer than coal by a very wide margin. Coal ash is also radioactive and coal plants have very limited requirements to prevent it from escaping to the environment.

Even 'Radioactive Waste' really only feels scary because all of the bad stuff is condensed into a much smaller package when you adjust based on energy produced again.

I'd be inclined to agree, ernest seems very competent, but he also seems to be trying to carry this entire project on his shoulders which with a project this size isn't doable if you have other life concerns.
