18:17:32 <nicolas17_> confusingly written
18:17:46 <nicolas17> but it sounds like the "turned into cats" claim came from another detained person?
18:29:36 <fireonlive> ahh yeah

19:32:14 <nukke> >Slack messages from inside a channel the company set up for the project show employees using an open-source YouTube video downloader called yt-dlp, combined with virtual machines that refresh IP addresses to avoid being blocked by YouTube.
19:32:49 <nukke> nvidia-AT collab when
19:38:25 <superkuh_> As long as they eventually delete the data it's still 'streaming'.
19:42:39 <fireonlive> no wonder they're targeting yt-dlp users lol
19:48:52 <nukke> it's pointless to keep the original data after you train your AI
19:48:57 <nukke> AI will fill all the gaps ;)

20:55:58 <nulldata> flashfire42|m - not yet. They lost the antitrust lawsuit today. Haven't done sentencing yet nor appeals - but one of the things the DOJ might propose is breaking them up

22:38:03 <JAA> > Google's core search engine, where it traditionally competed with Yahoo
22:38:11 <JAA> Uh, when was Yahoo actually competitive?
22:40:23 <nukke> 1996
22:40:51 <nukke> Back when there was a Web Rings button
22:40:58 <JAA> Didn't Ask Jeeves dominate then? :-)
22:42:08 <nulldata> Dunno, let's ask him
22:44:59 <nicolas17> pretty sure we switched from altavista to google
23:01:20 <JAA> So uBlock Origin is no longer released for Chromium now. Just in case anyone is still using a browser based on Chromium.
