Even if you come to the conclusion that these models should be allowed to "learn" from copyrighted material, the issue is that they can and will reproduce copyrighted material.
They might not recreate a picture of Mickey Mouse that exists already, but they will draw a picture of Mickey Mouse. Just like I could, except I'm aware that I can't monetize it in any way. Well, new Mickey Mouse.
I live in a safe area (not in the US), I know most of my neighbours at least somewhat but I wouldn't ever confront them directly because I don't know who's on the other side of the door and how they deal with confrontation. It only takes one asshole to put me in the hospital because I dared tell them they were being too loud, even if 99% of my neighbours are sweet and caring.
Probably the Nautiloid then (the area you wake up in that's all... Bombed and has those pods).
(Ignore the rest of my comment if you have no interest at all in the game anymore, but read on if you want to give it another chance)
BG3 has a lot of content and story, but if you've never played a CRPG (like D&D but digital), it's a bit difficult to get into. If you ever consider revisiting the game, there's no shame in picking the easiest setting and/or looking up build guides online to make the combat easier (and save scum).
There's a lot of very well written story and characters in the game and it's one of those games where your choices actually matter. You can also take your sweet time with almost everything that's happening in the game if you feel overwhelmed (something that new players aren't really told).
Signed, someone who thought this type of game wasn't her jam at all and is now 140h deep into her first playthrough ❤️
You're proposing to waste 10 hours sorting photos when the right tool could probably do it in less than 2 minutes? What?
And how does taking pictures translate to being addicted to tech?? We've had photography for over 100 years
I don't self-host my music streaming currently (lack of funds) but I'm planning to in the future. I live in a large city and borrow CDs from the library to rip at home. This might not work for more obscure stuff or if you don't have a good library in your area, but this way I don't need to make more space for CDs and I support the library doing it. If I want to support artists, I get merch and/or go to concerts.
