You can't counter someones argument by just saying the same thing you know.

Sure you can. You can also win any argument by replying "no you". You just don't leave a very good impression if you do that.

He brings up a good point as you can in fact argue your likeness in court.

This would likely require a court case but chances are the AI law would have to offer an exception to it.

It's probably just going to fall under existing law and the owner of the AI replaces the owner of the copy that was made (so same laws, no exception). Not sure what law that is exactly, but I assume it involves royalties and the like and there's an exception for certain things, like news and maybe art.

Here's an article on it from the perspective of painting. I don't see why it would any different if it's an AI "painter". It's still technically painting what it does.

what does it even matter. Just ignore it.

Society isn't really good at knowing what it requires. And sometimes it's better to be cautious. Also capitalism breaks down in certain markets, one of which is the "job market".

Any market that involves a lot of players and little oversight will get manipulated like crazy, including the job market. Employers try to counter that, but in the end the people that are best at getting hired for a job get that job, not the people that are best at doing that job. How could it not be?

And that includes the jobs of the people that do the hiring. So it's a market that's rife with inefficiencies.

Self censorship is the best kind of censorship. If you're an oppressor of speech, that is.

I still have to log in via fucking RDP to set it up.

Nah you don't. I've made plenty of headless installations for windows. You think everyone with a datacenter with hundreds of windows servers logs in to each of them with RDP? You can do it with an unattended.xml file. Which is harder to do than what I had to do to make a headless raspberry pi ubuntu server. By a lot, although if you look long enough, you might be able to copy someone else's unattended.xml.

Also, Windows Event Viewer still blows

Yeah, it's... an acquired taste. You can actually script it. But it is harder than string manipulation, since the events are all objects, not strings.

Then why has every Windows admin I’ve ever had to deal with use the GUI?

Cause I'm lazy.

This is more about your windows knowledge than windows. All the stuff you're mentioning can easily be done remotely with powershell remoting.

Also, I often just SSH to windows servers. Works fine, has been like that for years now.

Go with docker images and save your setup files/commands, so you can always redeploy on a NAS/new server later. Go with lscr.io/linuxserver images.

It probably took me a good 20 hours to setup. Then dozens more hours to get my existing library imported, but that's just part of the process.

Initially it is time intensive, but it's totally worth it. Make sure you make proper backups, so you don't lose your work.

That's probably 150 aborted campaigns totaling 900 hours and two completed 25 hour each campaigns. Source: I'm at around 1500 hours, maybe 2000. A lot of it predates steam, so I don't know exactly.

I've only completed one campaign ever. At some point you know you've won and you're just steamrolling. So why bother.

Like driving a Ferrari with a Honda engine.

You know that's a thing, right?

Where Wansley and Weinstein break important new ground is on the other legal standard set by the Supreme Court: recoupment of losses. If Uber and WeWork and the rest of the unicorns are perpetual money losers, it sounds like the standard isn't met. But Wansley and Weinstein point out that it can be — even if the companies never earn a dime and even if everyone who invests in the companies, post-IPO, loses their bets. That's because the venture capitalists who seeded the company do profit from the predatory pricing. They get in, get a hefty return on their investment, and get out before the whole scheme collapses.

Yep. The venture capitalists found a loophole.
