Didn't the Pippin prototype case (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viGqjKACKQg) went that way?


How long until they add a 21+ category to this bill, though? Insofar the use of it would be for gambling and CA doesn't even have mobile sports betting.


I read a FUD somewhere about Cinavia (the sound-muting DRM) being implemented on OS level by implementing it on SGX enclave level. That obviously didn't happen, but imagine if TPM was used for that too (or similar DRM).



I feel traditional "rust" hard disks would be inefficient for AI use. Unless they include SSDs (which I feel these data centers are more likely to be using) in the definition as well...


In a large rack-mount SAN with hundreds or thousands of disks connected to your computing equipment via fiberchannel, the performance difference is pretty negligible.

The real advantage of SSDs in this use case is storage density and power efficiency. On the other hand, your compute resources might be packed in so tight with power-intensive stuff that you appreciate the spinning rust “wasting” space.


They need it hoard datasets.


They are doing this pre-emptively since it will be the global law trend sooner or later.


That's not for Discord or you to decide nor is that guaranteed!


Yeah, the decision to do it pre-emptively obviously is discord’s to make. How could it be otherwise?


I meant mandatory age verification becoming "global law" is not for Discord to decide.


>not due to legislative pressures

It's a pre-emptive move against any (potential) legislative pressures.


>users can always move to other platforms (problem #1)

Until the cycle restarts again with new platforms.

Also, I am convinced self-hosting or getting a new platform (including return to traditional forums) to run might as well be bureaucratically harder at this point, given the case of lfgss' shutdown: https://hackernews.hn/item?id=42433044


Some platforms also now suspend you if they find out you were registering before turning 13 (or minimum age).


lol.

twitter did this to an ex (pre musk purchase)

she's about to turn 30.


>because they sniff the nearby WIFI networks and then ask Google where they are

Even with airplane mode on (that disables GPS, iirc)?
