*15 Pro and up (the base 15 doesn’t support Apple Intelligence).

Yep, CotEditor is fantastic - solo dev and they’re very careful to follow the actual macOS interface guidelines, so it looks and feels native throughout.

Ah, I didn’t consider that! It’s not a thing in the UK.

You mean if there was enough traffic ahead of you at the lights that by the time you reached them they’d gone red again? In that scenario you still pulled forwards and then had to stop again, so I’d consider it two stops.

It’s only one stop if you stopped once and then didn’t move at all between one red light and the next (in which case either the entire queue is blocked from entering the junction, or you’re doing something wrong).

Americans have a bizarre fixation with ‘perfect’ teeth. The ultra-white, ultra-straight look is uncanny to me.

There may be occasional inaccuracies

I’ll say. Tried a handful of things I’m actually familiar with and it was full of mistakes and hallucinated ‘facts’.

Typical AI slop - looks good at a distance but crumbles under the merest scrutiny.

I’m willing to bet it’s people seeing an ‘AI bad’ headline, upvoting, and moving on without reading.

I don’t like AI either but the hivemind on the fediverse is just as bad as back on Reddit sometimes.

And if it was charged via general taxation, presumably, the cost per person would actually be lower.

I don’t currently have a TV license (we only watch streaming) but I’d be happy with that. As you say, there are huge cultural and social benefits to the BBC. We already pay taxes to make museums free for everyone, why not the Beeb too?

I’m not certain. That might fall under falsely implying endorsement, which is one of the few exceptions.

Fun fact: there’s no general concept of image/likeness rights in the UK, and photographers own the full copyright of any photos they take.

There are other laws that come into play if you were in a private place or if your likeness is used to falsely imply endorsement, but otherwise if someone takes your photo in public they can do whatever they want with it.

(Obvious disclaimer that I’m not a lawyer but the above is my understanding of the law.)

No, the users are definitely also criminals.

IWF is a UK organisation

In some cases they’re deliberately allowed to operate as a honey trap, allowing authorities to identify and arrest as many users as possible.

If you simply shut the site down, the users go elsewhere and you have to find them again.

He was against Apple Vision Pro and the Apple Car, while reportedly the MacBook Neo was his idea. Small sample size, but encouraging nonetheless.

Well they would say that, wouldn’t they?

Hilarious that you got downvoted into the negative for daring to voice a dissenting opinion. Truly, Lemmy is a child of Reddit.

Edit: Back above zero! I take it back, maybe I spoke too soon?

I strongly oppose the use of generative AI in art but if it has to be done, it should at least be labeled as AI.

I know I’m mostly preaching to the choir here, but I don’t think there’s any situation in which AI ‘has’ to be used in art.

Less than 700, ~15MB.

And almost all of that is texts from automated systems. I live in the UK; most people here use WhatsApp or Messenger, not SMS/iMessage.

I’m a professional writer and this is the way. You’ve just got to force yourself to write. Even if it’s nonsense. Even if you don’t want to. Especially if you don’t want to.

People ask what the difference is between a professional writer and an amateur. Some might say it’s getting paid, but that’s not true - plenty of professional writers don’t get paid. The difference is discipline. When you’re a professional writer you need to be able to turn it on every single day, even when there’s not an ounce of inspiration in your body.

Which servers? (But the answer is almost certainly Linux.)
