It was the New York Post (not Fox) that broke the story about the laptop, and that got censored by various social media companies acting on the (false) advice of federal agents to do so.

Because the laptop includes a lot a emails. A lot of those emails include Hunter selling access to his father and suggesting that his father was in the the scheme with him. Whether or not Joe was actually involved vs. Hunter making it up to get these people to give him what he wanted is an open question, but this isn't something that should have been actively suppressed by the media just a few weeks before the election.

>“While we certainly do not endorse the use of unfair and deceptive practices in negative option marketing, the procedural deficiencies of the Commission’s rulemaking process are fatal here,”

Sounds like they have no issue with the rule itself, only with the fact that it was passed by bureaucratic fiat.

I can still play multiplayer Doom, multiplayer Warcraft 1, and many, many more. Seems eminently reasonable to me.

WoW has always required a monthly subscription since release

>But you’re not renting or subscribing to it so that is inaccurate

If the game can be taken away from you st any time then "buying" is definitely inaccurate too then. "Licensing for a limited time" might be the most accurate, but something like "Lease for X years" might be more concise and accurate enough.

It's not simply a matter of knowing what/how to ask. LLMs are essentially statistical regressions on crack. This is a gross oversimplification, but the point is that what they generate is based on statistical likelihoods, and if 90%+ of the code they were trained on was shit you're not going to get the good stuff very often. And if you need an AI to help you do it you won't even be able to recognize the good stuff when it does get generated.

AI is trained on the same shitty code you're inheriting, so probably not.

Except you actually sometimes get money back from the slot machine, with gaming lootboxes/gacha/microtransactions you're just getting imaginary digital goods that will disappear as soon as the company shuts down the game's servers.
