  • This is getting weird.

    If I would generate an image with an AI and then take a photo of it, I could copyright the photo, even if the underlying art is not copyrightable, just like the leaves?

    So, in an hypothetical way, I could hold a copyright on the photo of the image, but not on the image itself.

    So if someone would find the model, seed, inference engine and prompt they could theoretically redo the image and use it, but until then they would be unable to use my photo for it?

    So I would have a copyright to it through obscurity, trying to make it unfeasible to replicate?

    This does sound bananas, which - to be fair - is pretty in line with my general impression of copyright laws.











  • While she has not been named in the police statement about the arrest, it is believed to be Bonnie Spofforth

    This, I don’t like. If you - the newspaper, the means of information - are not sure about a name you should really refrain from using it.

    It would be not the first time people get their lives ruined by some careless journalist because of a namesake or just an error.

    It’s not that different from “spreading rumors”.

    That aside, in this case, it is probably a rumor from an inside source. Still. Not a fan.



  • The Heroic Games Launcher is (IMHO) by far the best interface to gog you can have on linux.

    You can find it on the AUR if you use arch, which makes it pretty straightforward to install.

    The next version will integrate with the Galaxy API using the comet project, which should make it even better.

    The only problem I had with it is that, once upon a time, there was a bug with downloading some games (Cyberpunk 2077, in my case) and I had to compile the git version of Gog-dl and target that in the settings… but the fact I could even do that is great by itself.
