    That was already possible. This lets the game run natively on a modern PC, as long as you supply your legally backed up rom image of your N64 cartridge of the game.

    Also, if they trained AI on programming books which they licensed in perpetuity and free college courses and it became better than people at programming, then maybe vibe coding would be questionably good. But they didnt. In a system designed to exploit labor, they took the fruit of that labor without compensating those who deserved it (a crime that, as you elude to in your comment, is not socially acceptable), then they sold their snake oil which is NOT as good at the job it proposes to eliminate as the human worker, to a company which will pay for the privilege of exploiting that technology at the expense of the humans they will replace with it, while it does a worse job and generally makes life shitter for everyone in that entire supply chain, except for the Sam Altmans. Who, as we’ve seen in recent times, want to build tech bro kingdoms where they can exploit people further.

    The problem isn’t the neural network, it’s the exploitation.

    You start to run into issues around stuff like CP. who gets the power to delete it? Who’s liable for storing it (legally) if it cascades to all the storage instances? No one? Everyone? What happens when someone abuses that delete power to start to steer discussions in their politically preferred direction? Who has the authority to monitor and regulate removal of those abusers? What if they themselves are abusers? Who watches the watchmen?

    It’s a simple technical solution, but as with all things in life, the shitbag humans are the problem.




  • It’s not genocide unless they systematically stuff Polish Jews into railroad cars and keep them in labor camps until they kill them all in gas chambers disguised as showers but ONLY if they use right kind of gas and ONLY IF there’s at least 5 million of them and ONLY IF the Soviet Union grinds them down so American can swoop in and claim capitalism won and fascism can secretly continue the way the confederacy also got off the hook. Then it’s genocide.

    Everything is just sparkling ethnic cleansing.

    I never auto-delete automated crap. Mark as read and stick it in a folder outside Inbox. Leave it alone until retention policy auto-deletes it.

    They’ll know you received it either way. If they want to flood you with useless crap that you could just as easily ad-hoc if you actually needed it, make them pay to store it.

    Just don’t be like my customers who auto-bin emails that come from our fucking ticketing system, are created by a human, and are asking for specifics on their request.
