  • Don’t forget that the south was trying to force the north ro send back escaped slaves, depite the north using their states rights to say no. The south would also send Bounty hunters to go kidnap free born black people to sell into slavery. So yeah, states rights was an issue. The right to identify people as human.

    But let’s not also forget that the confederate constitution had a passage that says that there will not be any laws capable of being passed that infringe on the right to own black people

    Article I Section 9(4) No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed











  • I ended up getting a steam deck after being an owner of multiple GPD products and dealing with windows on those. I considered a Go, but I’m done with windows handhelds. I hope either steamOS catches on as a mainstream or all the other hardware manufacturers get together and decide to all use Linux.

    I tried Linux on a GPD Win 2, it was a such a nightmare that I’m not interested in any handhelds that dont COME with Linux either. I want proper driver support and not be forced to spend hours and hours diagnosing why my screen is either sideways or only showing half








  • This article is pointless.

    These chat bots are generative. Yes, they generate fake laws and fake cases and fake outcomes. That’s how they work. Expecting anything else out of something designed to create is pointless and a waste of time. They aren’t designed to not lie. That’s so well established at this point I think the people doing this research on fucking chatGPT for law questions are either mooching funding just to keep a job or are bored.

    If they trained a LLM on nothing but a dictionary, law books, and fed it case outcomes, it would probably be a reasonable tool for law offices. Make sure it only outputs indexes to real cases and real laws, and make sure that law offices have to legally follow up on and verify these things but I see this as an actual use case for these types of bots.

    There still is a lot of nuance involved, especially for a layman who wouldn’t even begin to understand the terminology required to start the search, so a human lawyer would/should still be involved, but these tools would absolutely help speed up the judicial system and probably lower costs.


  • Valve has followed through on this, too, they provide multiple services I find so convenient I’d rather buy games than pirate. Simple one click multiplayer without any port forwarding nonsense, the steam input API, the workshop (which, imo could be a better mod manager overall, but most games usually have mod managers in the workshop you can use)

    And games go on sale so often it’s super easy to just buy it at 75% off anyways.

    I don’t simp for billionaires normally, but Gaben isn’t full of shit at least.
