Yeah, I left when it became impossible to really advance without coop play. Even strikes were annoying, but raids were impossible if you didn't have a team, or were just a casual player. When Bungie obviously stopped giving a shit about casuals or PvE players, I stopped giving a shit about Destiny.

USA next. If we can ban TikTok, we can do Twitter too!
We’re gonna put creatives out of work, we’re gonna sell a unified product to replace them, and we’re gonna use their own labor to build their replacements.
Yes, but: it's short sighted, and wrong. Until we have a sea change in the LLM/AGI space, "creatives" will be needed for seed data. LLMs that are recursively trained on their own output degrade and produce worse output over time.
The "yes" part is that companies looking to replace paying people for their work, but still hoping that Creative Commons types are still posting online for free harvesting.
Yeah, that'd do it. Although, again, it looks like the restriction wasn't in the NVIDIA licensing wording until recently. IANAL, but you it both parties are required to agree to contract changes; if AMD's contributions were all pre-wording change, they merely need to dust their hands; it's OSS. Why are they doing NVIDIA's dirty work for them?
I'm not convinced.
Didn't the author confirm the takedown came from AMD and not NVidia? AMD isn't responsible for third party software running on their hardware.
Although, IIRC they either sanctioned it or provided some initial funding, which might have put them in a more culpable position. Still, I'm pretty sure the takedown came from AMD, and it doesn't make sense that they're doing NVidia's policing for then.
Except the AMD exploit requires ring 0 access and is almost irrelevant to most users, whereas the Intel issues are physically destroying people's computers. The scale of the issues are utterly incomparable.
I'm much more angry with whatever dipshit at AMD decided to revoke permission for ZLUDA, and that they haven't yet been fired.
Someone should put together a book about nearly-fatal stupid kid stories.
The summer I was 9, my younger sister and I were home alone, and I was playing on our open front door, hanging from it and swinging. It had a window with curtains hanging from a rod. The rod was attached to the door by these metal hooks on either side. When I dropped off, I knocked the curtain rod off and ripped the inside of my wrist open vertically about 2 inches. As I held my gushing wrist, my sister and I walked around the neighborhood trying to find an adult; eventually, we did, and I got a visit to the emergency room, some stitches, and a wicked scar. The doctor said if it'd caught me a half inch to the right, I would have torn out along an artery and I'd have bled out before we got help.
Since when? There was a ruling in the 80's that it was. I admit laws may have changed and I didn't notice, but I also believe corporations are perfectly capable of lying - or using half-truths - to convince people they don't have rights that they really do.
I just grabbed the first search result, but:

DRM & DCMA. Well, I don't know whether this has yet been tested in court, and with the current Supreme Court it might not be wise to risk it, but eventually with a more moderate court I would expect a similar ruling as the original ruling was meant for. A corporation suing an individual for circumventing DRM with no proof of redistribution, I think, would result in a ruling DCMA would not like to have on the books. But, that's just me, and we don't have a moderate higher court, and you're right.
I do it for all books I've purchased because Fair Use has ruled that I have a right to make copies of media I've purchased, for my own personal use.
Calibre & DeDRM. If these are the tutorials you've tried and have failed with, I can't help you. It's even harder with Linux, but somehow I've managed. You might have more luck if you say how it's failing.
A friend told me they were surprisingly fast, and you really wanted to stay away from big holes in the ground.
No, but they have been trying to ban it.
