That still seems like a wildly high buyout.

A lot of newer games have "story mode" or other accessibility options for an easy playthrough.
But yeah I really miss cheat codes, especially the wackier ones.
Can't have a UE5 game without spending a lot of time discussing performance.
My PC is pretty decent, but whenever I hear a game runs on UE5 I just figure I'll pick it up on sale in 5-10 years when I have newer hardware.
In Japan, the patents they filed for were "extensions" of existing older patents. The new patents "updated" the old patents and could be used as if they filed when the original patent was. So they were able to file patents after Palworld came out, and then sue as if the patents existed before Palworld. Seems like bullshit to me, but I'm not a lawyer.
I don't know if a similar mechanic can be used in the US patent system or not.
I asked mistral/brave AI and got this response:
How Many Rs in Strawberry
The word "strawberry" contains three "r"s. This simple question has highlighted a limitation in large language models (LLMs), such as GPT-4 and Claude, which often incorrectly count the number of "r"s as two. The error stems from the way these models process text through a process called tokenization, where text is broken down into smaller units called tokens. These tokens do not always correspond directly to individual letters, leading to errors in counting specific letters within words.
There's also a "r" in the first half of the word, "straw", so it was completely skipping over that r and just focusing on the r's in the word "berry"
I haven't looked into Deepseek specifically so I could be mistaken, but a lot of times when a model is called "open-source" it really is just open weights. You can download it or train other models off of it, but you can't actually view any kind of source code on how the model works.
An audit isn't really possible.
I have a strong suspicion that Trump is wanting to do things during his presidency to ensure he has a "legacy". He wants to have some big accomplishments that will make him standout more than some of the other presidents. Things like starting Space Force, wanting to add new states/territories/etc, I think it's all about wanting a bigger legacy.
The people doing the revival have been working to keep the original pebbles working for years now. I think they're really passionate about the watch, and that gives me hope for the revival.
The former pebble employees at Google worked hard to get the OS open source, so I think it's fair to assume they were hoping for this outcome. And the repebble team (who are the ones"bringing it back") have been working on providing support and keeping the original pebble watches going for years now.
I've been running the llama based and qwen based local versions, and they will talk openly about tiananmen square. I haven't tried all the other versions available.
The article you linked starts by talking about their online hosted version, which is censored. They later say that the local models are also somewhat censored, but I haven't experienced that at all. My experience is that the local models don't have any CCP-specific censorship (they still won't talk about how to build a bomb/etc, but no issues with 1989/Tiananmen/Winnie the Pooh/Taiwan/etc).
Edit: so I reran the "what happened in 1989" prompt a few times in the llama model, and it actually did refuse to talk on it once, just saying it was sensitive. It seemed like if I asked any other questions before that prompt it would always answer, but if that was the very first prompt in a conversation it would sometimes refuse. The longer a conversation had been going before I asked, the more explicit the bot is about how many people were killed and details like that. Pretty strange.
This is also nice because every state doesn't have to pass this kind of law for it to help everyone else. Companies are often willing to have california specific models of their products to comply with California specific laws, but if enough states have right to repair laws it will hopefully be easier for companies to just have all their products be compliant.
