If you study countries that became fascist or dictatorships, power was never gained on a single day.

Like pre-WWII Germany, Hitler won an election yes, but he didn't become a dictator on day one. Same with Putin.

It's all the actions following, and the US can still combat it. But the odds are obviously against it now that Trump 'owns' every CEO of every single social media.

It's the same as silencing your political opponents, just with extra steps.

I think Trump is even worse.

The most fucked up part is that I disagree, but not because I think Elon is any better than you do.

Maybe I don't know enough of this, but would it be possible to install Kodi and use that and it's plugins for satellite? Plex also had this, and maybe Jellyfin is a good option?

In that way, you can show your satellite channels but in their interface.

Maybe that can do the trick?

If screens were only about size, I'd be easy.

He is, otherwise he will get funds in some way or another. Rich people can't become poor today.

Pretty tall order, can't expect that in 2025.

I don't think it can backfire just because there're rules. Backfire will be possible if a rule actually made it even more legit to use AI for this.

But it might end up changing nothing for some use cases.

And my understanding of EU bills is often that it will get reviewed and changed before it will go into voting again. In that way not only the proposer of the bill have something to say.

Still I agree with you - better than nothing and let's hope it will get bulletproof.

Didn't the EU just made this illegal? Or what was the new AI bill about. Can't find the article.

They don't have the manpower to go after everyone, but you never need to.

You make an example out of 1.000 people nation wide, and most people wouldn't dare to not pay.
