There's enough time passed to show that if you catch the virus you have a significantly increased risk of all long term complications vs the vaccine. Again just look up the statistics and research. The primary field I'm aware of is heart complications where those who have taken the vaccine show double digit reductions in long term heart complications vs those who have not. Arstechnica.com has a good write up on it that I have linked below, but basically every legitimate peer reviewed study is fairly aligned on the health outcomes of the vaccine being positive stacked against the virus in wide populations. You, as an individual, do not get to choose if you live in a population so your personal assessed risk factor does not really matter because it's entirely subjective and based on things you cannot measure.

Subsidized hardware should probably always be labeled as such. Facebook eats a ton of cost each headset. Makes up for it in tracking data, ad serve, and software sales though. Well. Sorta assuming you ignore the billions they take in losses for the "metaverse". Quick, buy this cheap thing so we can cut out the competition and then raise the price! A tale as old as time.

The issue is you're comparing a small manageable risk to a significant unmanageable one. The data is in. The time has passed. You had the potential to be somewhat correct once, but with millions of doses of the vaccine now distributed we now have overwhelming evidence that it leads to more positive health outcomes vs contracting the virus. A short search of academic studies will provide you significant data in this regard should you wish you validate.

So many things shouldn't have copyright protection in the first place. Code is up there on the list imo. Patents as well for that measure. You likely benefit from millions of cases of both infringement and design "theft" but it legitimately just stiffles industry, keeps the lawyers rich, and usually leaves the indie industry competitive only by the graces of a monopolistic capitalist body hoping to hold up straw man examples.

Yeah. There's a lot of crazy design through the ages. Wasn't meaning to say your repair was too far out there, I've done similar as temp fixes. It's as the old adage goes though, regulations are written in blood. Never hurts being overly cautious, and a fuse is cheap compared to a small electrical fire.

Probably just want to be able to control the user experience honestly. It's sort of what your average "consumer" expects. Maybe they could fork Heroic, but I don't really think that benefits either party long term, but I'm not super intimate on the long term life cycles of open source projects, perhaps there would be enough overlap still to offer good opportunities for up streaming despite the difference in design direction.

https://www.anthropic.com/research/global-workspace At a certain level it does seem were using a non deterministic statistical model to at least mimic true intelligence, though honestly nobody knows at this time the boundaries or complete differences. We're still on the bleeding edge of development. Also it's worth noting that most "ai systems" anyone would interact with are actually layers of models, not just a bare llm anymore. Tokenizers, linkers, etc.
