ok but how does the bluray library stay safe? its still a similar problem. for piracy sites, a lot of them seem to deal with it by just having it be hosted in a country that doesnt care enough to shut them down.

I converted a pdf book scan to epub with tessaract ocr and calibre, it didn't need any programming, but the end result did have a typo every few paragraphs. Most were very similar to each other though, so a few hours cleaning it up would've made it pretty readable.

cracked servers (that dont need a microsoft account and dont use their authentication) are quite common, in fact you dont need "patched" server software to make one, it is literally a setting in the default microsoft provided server!

you would want some sort of in game authentication through a plugin (spigot, bukkit, etc) to prevent people from claiming to be your username and the server blindly trusting them and getting your stuff stolen though.

some people use the logic gates in the game to create basic computers to automate expansion

just wondering, but what are they commonly doing wrong?

wow, didnt know about that. i still think its a hard problem, i mean artillery rounds dont fly a few feet off the ground and manuever, but if anything could defend against drones it'd be that.

i dont think its realistic to have reliable anti drone defenses.

i fly an fpv drone (the kind used by ukraine), but for fun and without explosives, and they are so small and manuverable that it doesnt seem super doable to hit them with a net or whatever. jamming would work, but they can just use a different frequency, and gps spoofing is only a problem for autonomous drones.

i dont know enough about lasers to judge them, so maybe thatd work, but as an example of how extreme drones can get, there was a guy who built a little quadcopter that flew up to 40,000ft. its a hard problem

lack of redundancy is a concern, but the same was said for fly by wire cutting the physical link between stick and controls. fly by wire is ubiquitous now, can be made very very safe, and is a net gain for aviation in general.

not having a window is obviously a bigger challenge, but its still a solvable problem.

archive team runs a distributed effort to scrape and archive all of reddit, it gets uploaded to archive.org, so at least a large amount of it is accessible through there

i really dont think ai is the solution to this problem. if humans made it, humans can crack it
