Well then I guess I need a new vehicle because I’m a handyman and I use a truck.

Yes, yes you do.

How about adressing the issue instead of just cresting strawmen about the messengers?

This feature is an actual fundamrntal privacy issue.

It seems to me that the major issue people were complaining about was the thing even existing in the first place (and rightly so). So by them still wanting to implement it, they have fixed absolutely nothing.

This argument keeps missing that it is not only the quality but mainly the quantity of fakes which is going to be the problem. The complete undermining of trust in photographic evidence is seen as a good thing for so many nefarious vested interests, that this is an aim they will actively strive for.

It is the quantity of fakes because of the easy process which is going to be the problem. Fake pictures will very soon outnumber real, and the amount of them will still kerp grjwing exponentially even after that.

The thing is that in the future the mere quantity of fakes will make the careful vetting process you describe physically impossible. You will be bombarded with high quality fakes to such an extent that you will simply have to give up trying to keep up, so it will be a choice of either dropping the vetting process or dropping bringing any pictures altogether. For profit driven corporate jwbed media outlets, the choice unfortunately will be obvious.

Yeah, it is going to be mainly a quantity issue rather than a quality one. The quality of faked photos has already been high since photoshop. Now a constant growing avalanche of high quality fakes (produced by all sorts of different vested interests with their own particular purposes) is going to barrage us on a daily basis, simply because it is cheap and easy

Personally I think this kind of response shows how not ready we are, because it is grounded in the antiquated assumption that it is just more of the same old instead of a complete revolution in both the quality and quantity of fakery going to happen.

And astroturfing AI-bots. So many bots.

More like greedy and nihilistic, like all corporations.

Way too overthinking it for Trump. Some criminal puppeteer just paid him a lot of funds in bitcoin.

Well know you are just using circular logic. The thing is that cryptocurrencies aren’t currencies.

As long as they use energy they are wasteful, considering they don’t provide anything constructive for that wasted energy which could have been used for better things.

Except for the thousands of cryptobros who will flock to these kinds of threads defending their scam, as this very thread is an example of.

Just paying for a whole new computer required for compability with 11.

Not if it poses as a documentary.

TIL Google One

Not really though.

and the sound quality of vinyl gets worse every time you play it.

If you handle them correctly, it will not happen to any noticeable degree in any of our lifetimes or the following generations. It is durable material.

Of course. There is no doubt that the ritual of handling the record and playing it on the turntable is a huge part of it. Personally it makes me appreciate the music more because it is kind of an effort to get it playing in the first place, and you just want to listen to the record in a session, instead of just having it as a backdrop which so much streamed music is.
