I think they meant other countries, which have liberty and democracy engraved to their core.

Also, please keep it civil. There was no need to be so condescending. If you’re unhappy with the answer, there are better ways to express this. :)

Or, you know, Russia could just get the fuck out of Ukraine and leve them in peace. Much better agreement imo.

How is it profitable?

I wonder whether it’s possible to fight wars without – ideally – having casaulties at all.

For example, sedating instead of killing. Afterwards prison camps or something like that. Admittedly, given the scale, it is financially and logistically a tremendous effort. But how much must a human life “be worth” in order to be spared?

There are other obvious issues like civil unrest, if the other party keeps killing soldiers of one’s own military.

Still, it’s better than to end lifes from my perspective. One side must be the bigger one.

We spend so much effort and resources into specialising how to kill each other. But we don’t use that resources for finding alternative ways.

If there are people who really want to kill each other, throw them together and leave the rest alone.

How is it a proxy war if it was russia which started it?

globally important

This is continually decreasing.

It’s even funnier that the website itself is still using “twitter” as URL.

It is necessary to employ a method which enables the training procedure to distinguish copyrighted material. In the “dumbest” case, some humans will have to label it.

Just because you’ve edited a comment, doesn’t mean that this can be seen as “oh, this is under copyright now”.

I don’t say it’s technical impossible. To the contrary, it very much is possible. It’s just more work. This drives the development costs up and can give some form of satisfaction to angered ex-reddit users like me. However, those costs will be peanuts for giants like Google / Alphabet.

NYT is currently suing because of copyright infringiments.

it’s unclear that copyright has anything to say about AI training anyway

Although lawmakers worldwide have slept while AI advanced and therefore missed to make some important laws, they are catching up. Europe recently passed its first AI act. As far as I’ve seen it also states that companies must disclose a detailed summary of their training data.

I think I have about 4000 comments on reddit. I’ve stopped using reddit last year in summer when they pushed their fucking API changes; have been on Lemmy since and never looked back. However, I still have the account, because sometimes I had really nice conversations, which I would like to look up once in a while, or to pick up something which I wanted to keep for another time, like a bookmark basically. I’m also one of the people who sometimes write really really much; walls of text as a product of a lot of effort I put in. It would be sad to see it all go away. Then again, fuck reddirt and it’s management.

Is there a tool to back up my comments (or also the corresponding threads)? After that I’ll gladly use the tool provided by luddite.

I always cook the whole package, which is usually about 500 g.

Why only european ones?
