Even if they did not do it this time around, doesn't the user agreement pretty much allow them to use any cloud-stored user data for training as part of "processing within the scope of services"? ๐ถ
@clipstudiopaint If you only read the tweet, here's the statement from the site.
Celsys DID NOT create a new dataset to train their generator. It uses Stable Diffusion that is based on LAION-5B dataset which btw does not only have unconsented works, but also private medical records.
@TinkerSec Oh, and the reasoning is simple, a pin could only be in one of two states (if they are fully mechanically independent as they should be with this design) so there's 2^5 combinations. By the way, if the three pins convenience rule applies here, the number goes down to ten :D
@TinkerSec 32, so half a minute. This is funny because the oldest mechanical tenement block entrance locks I've seen used ten pins and it was clear to me even as a kid that a thousand tries isn't that big a number (also it usually was 3 pressed pins), so it must be just a slight deterrence
First I am here
Then year and year and year
Are gone
But in my chest the stone
Begets a year a mark
A year, a facet
It isn't much
It's less with every touch
Until it's stark and none
And I surpass it
@cyberinvasion@AkBKukU I'm not talking about the concept itself which indeed has been around for a while and would not be really legally defendable but the specific set of design elements, like the UI and all. You're also right about the brand/player base of course.
@roun_sa_ville Interesting how a lot of "bougie" aspirations in this thread are very normal or even humble by the standards of an average Soviet citizen.
@ZetaTwo Finally got to the most of Le Guin I haven't read before (The Dispossessed is a masterpiece in particular), also first read Parenti whom I liked quite a bit more than I expected. Enjoyed Mike Duncan's The Storm Before The Storm, although I thought it warranted some better editing
