You can run deepseek-v4.1-flash on a local server with 4xH200@141GB for around 180K EUR. It can serve more than one user so it can be a good investment for a company, especially if you need your data to stay local (although I would advise do go a step up and populate with 8xH200 to serve many more users, ~300K EUR). You can run whatever test you want and you won't be limited by a front-end that pre-filters your requests.

Nice work, but is it just me or does this take away from the car’s original spirit?

In practice, very short texts don't carry very high value so watermarking is (usually) less important. For longer text false positives are not an issue at all since you have a large amount of data to extract your signal from.

If you are interested, you can look into the work of Hany Farid on this topic as a good introduction to image forensics and related topics.

I wonder where you got that impression. Several professional watermarking systems for movie studio type content I have worked with (and on) are highly resistant to noise removal while remaining imperceptible.

The wording in the current draft seems to indicate that it applies to "providers of hosting services and providers of publicly available interpersonal communications services". So unless this includes ISPs, I wonder if that means a decentralized P2P service is not covered.

The conclusion of the article says "[...] so far linking (even statically) is done for interoperability, does not [...]". IANAL but it could mean that linking against a GPL library for interoperability is OK in EU, but it does not mean it's true for general case of linking with GPL libraries.

I believe SSDs are soldered onto the motherboard for M1 laptops + M1 mac mini, I wonder how bad of an issue it is when considering used M1s.

"Much better screen" is also not necessarily true for everybody. For example I can't stand the glossy reflective screen, from what I saw last time I stopped in an apple store it was pretty much a mirror. I find the mate screens on thinkpads vastly superior and less difficult on my eyes, and their trackpads are fine: the magic track pad on my mac mini m1 is fine too, but I don't prefer one over the other.
