No fair! That would be cheating. Trump was just a bad business man and reality tv star, how could he possibly know about government when Biden has been in government his entire adult life?

Right back at you kid.

Ate it until I saw the thumbnail, lol. I asked why the fuck they have boys in their name every time?

Can I suggest sorting by new for your favorite communities? There are a lot of downvoters that have gamed the system.

Riiiiiiight, which is why you’re explaining it so eloquently.

So, explain it to me.

Are you actually trying to start a phone vs pc debate? That’s funny as hell.

Do you think the corporations like my art and is it fair? Apparently it is if I run it through AI is what you’re saying.

Why do you think that the AI companies want to hoover up everyone’s art? Because it’s valuable or they wouldn’t take the risk of all of this backlash.

It works as trickle down housing as well. They want to build luxury apartments, price fix them, and then say that in 20 to 30 years, you might be able to rent them because they’re cheaper.

I was just going to post that, it seems more like the onion:

Supreme Court wipes out anti-corruption law that bars officials from taking gifts for past favors

In ruling for the former mayor, the justices drew a distinction between bribery, which requires proof of an illegal deal, and a gratuity that can be a gift or a reward for a past favor. They said the officials may be charged and prosecuted for bribery, but not for simply taking money for past favors if there was no proof of an illicit deal.

Meta has acknowledged using parts of the Books3 dataset but argued that its use of copyrighted works to train LLMs did not require “consent, credit, or compensation.” The company refutes claims of infringing the plaintiffs’ “alleged” copyrights, contending that any unauthorized copies of copyrighted works in Books3 should be considered fair use.

Furthermore, Meta is disputing the validity of maintaining the legal action as a Class Action lawsuit, refusing to provide any monetary “relief” to the suing authors or others involved in the Books3 controversy. The dataset, which includes copyrighted material sourced from the pirate site Bibliotik, was targeted in 2023 by the Danish anti-piracy group Rights Alliance, demanding that digital archiving of the Books3 dataset should be banned and is using DMCA notices to enforce those takedowns.

Yet they’ll spend waste billions on metaverse.

I wondered and was assuming that was the case judging by the astroturfing on this thread. Looks like the enshitification has begun of them too.

See my other comments, lol. I don’t think you understand how this works.

Thanks. I was curious because I have a close family member that had tons of issues selling their indy game on Google and Apple and wondered if they were better. No devs are speaking up against them which probably means they’re not awful.

I’m not sure why you’re so angry and I don’t think you understand that I’m asking developers who have sold through them for their experiences. For example, Google lets your games be offered up for free the moment they’re put up and limits your exposure on their search page. Apple limits your exposure as well. I was wondering how Steam treats their developers because they were sued for being bad in the EU and if it’s a consistent thing.

I’m asking about the developers, not the workers. That’s good to hear though.

Wow, I’m asking, do they? I’m assuming by your answer, no.

Do they pay and treat their developers fairly? https://www.eurogamer.net/new-lawsuit-accuses-valve-of-abusing-steam-market-power-to-prevent-price-competition

Mine too, we all voted and they listened.

If you work for a large company, then they are also in the real estate business. It’s better for the real estate business if people work in their real estate and support the restaurants and other companies that rent from their real estate.
