@JellyMailSnail That's really bad. I'm surprised the license hasn't been revoked. The doctor is basically breaking part of their oath by being that dismissive

[AxWain @AXwain]

@JellyMailSnail Then it was not a good doctor.

Holding it for too long can cause problems with the kidneys, as far as I know.

If you need to go very often due to discomfort, it's indeed a cause for concern and a good doctor should look into what's happening

@JellyMailSnail When I was living on my own, I got two blankets for cold nights. Absolutely horrible if it was the hot weather season.

All of that changed when I bought this fine blanket in a transport terminal... I haven't seen one like that again since and I want to get another one 😔

[AxWain @AXwain]

@NyxiaNoire If the rigger didn't disclose that only them can update the model or that it costs extra money for others to work on it, you may have a case of unfair terms and get a fair agreement to fix that.

Escalate appropriately (next legal steps) if the rigger refuses to cooperate

[AxWain @AXwain]

@MechaKittn Consult with a lawyer. The model can be a commercial asset and you have protections over it. You can't be asked for unreasonable fees or sudden fees to prevent it from becoming a useless utility.

A ToS can have unfair terms that can be legally voided too

[AxWain @AXwain]

@nozomi_clips @chimari_live2d There are abandonment clauses that can be added precisely for cases like this that can make it legal for the customer to get the files.

The vtuber model can be considered a commercial asset and it is indeed an unfair practice to hold it "hostage" like that. You can report that

[AxWain @AXwain]

@KotoriHikari Those can be unfair trade practices, or even fraudulent. A lot of countries have protections for them and we can make reports to the appropriate entities (like the FTC in the USA)

If you ended doing business with such a vendor, it may pay off to get to know more

[AxWain @AXwain]

@Comrade_Del If you have proof of that, you can report it with the appropriate entity (like the FTC for the US)

I have seen sellers acting as if they aren't bound by fair trade laws among others that protect such transactions and expectations. Consult with a lawyer to know more

[AxWain @AXwain]

@kakashiuvu En general, el consejo que me dieron es que si tienen un proyecto comercial, como un modelo de VTuber para streams monetizados, ten como cliente un contrato listo.

Los ToS en redes sociales no son suficientes, ni los términos genéricos en VGen

[AxWain @AXwain]

@kakashiuvu Acabé de aprender que si el artista intencionalmente ofrece sus servicios a clientes comerciales y sus términos tienen un impacto masivo en una comisión que es considerada un asset comercial, entonces problemas legales son posibles y pueden forzar la mano por ahí

[AxWain @AXwain]

@oxcrowx The LLM is probabilistic in nature. So, people should know there's a probability it will get things wrong and thus we can't 100% trust the output.

Having said that, I don't understand how they automate full "engineering workflows" with LLMs and trust it will always work

[AxWain @AXwain]

@partialdecay_ @mouseMSPDraws Apologies, I don't know you enough and I can't get from text if you are being genuine here, sarcastic, or on the nose with the replies.

Nevertheless, I won't bother you more with this topic. Have a nice day and take care

[AxWain @AXwain]

@mouseMSPDraws @partialdecay_ Tbf, they will be ordered to be more explicit in the ToS, have a valid license agreement in a separate document, and signature for both.

Worse case scenario, would be that a lot of commissions should be Work for hire as that's the intention of many customers, but it's unlikely

[AxWain @AXwain]

@partialdecay_ @mouseMSPDraws No need. There are advocacy groups that can be reached out.

Legal ways like equitable relief seeking a contract reformation (the ToS becomes a default one) and challenging of terms as unfair (giving too much to the artist, vaguely defined terms, etc) are available

[AxWain @AXwain]

@partialdecay_ @mouseMSPDraws Be careful, if enough people complain that the practice is unfair, this can be changed and regulated in new bills.

It's in your best interest to not antagonize customers and make them feel there's fair treatment. Antagonize them, and let's not find out what happens after...

[AxWain @AXwain]

@milchstache To my knowledge, after 32 hours of no sleep, bad things start to happen.

And after 72 hours, is when health goes down. Really bad stuff with a risk of permanent damage can happen after that threshold.

I should take a look and see if that information is still valid 🤔

[AxWain @AXwain]

@milchspill I'm baffled that such channels still exist... Meanwhile, YouTube is terminating channels for making collections or highlights of their own content... Bad priorities

[AxWain @AXwain]

@unit_accord Have you seen the news lately? There's an on-going shift towards A-I because it's not meeting expectations. It's being a silent one to not spook the investors. Let's have some hope.

Your drug analogy made me understand your point. I didn't think about it, but I agree with you
