the AI features
that were in
the update

you were probably
hoping
to monetize
Fuck you

so unnecessary

He's the one. He should have a scowling look on his face because his property is the site of a fracas.
This meme template from last year.
Escalation = higher fuel prices + economic pain.
I watched some Hindi TV news today over my buffet breakfast. Indian channels which generally act as if they have a crush on Trump are swinging Iran today. Plenty of the usual dramatic 'storytelling.' Opportunistic, because India is suffering directly because of the war. +
Thanks! I remember Project Gutenberg licensing books. I had no idea those were being repurposed for sale.
NC in the license doesn't allow commercial use unless the entity selling it executes a written contract with you allowing the entity to use the work for commercial activities. In this case, generally the copyright-holder/ licensor gets a share from the money made.
I had no intention of selling it or asking for royalties because it's a work in public interest. So I didn't bother with the NC clause and hadn't considered the present scenario.
Yeah, that's the catch. It's licensed CC-BY 4.0 International. There is no non-commercial (NC) clause in it. This attribution exists on the listing along with the license and it's correct. Although I see plenty of replies mentioning non-licensed works were 'sold' in a similar way.

The Kindle copy is no different from the printable version we published. Imma file a report asking Amazon to either remove the charge or take the listing down.

I just discovered that #Amazon is charging for a Kindle copy of my e-book, which the publishers and I published CC-licensed and free of cost. We didn't list it on Amazon, only on Archive .org, the publisher's site, and Google Play.
"Girls when their dress has pockets" A meme showing several vultures standing with their wings slightly out. They look like women with their hands in dress pockets.
My niece is an accomplished seamstress, and no matter how complex or amazing her clothes are, whenever other women see her work they immediately say, "Oh, it's got pockets!"
It's a goddamn conspiracy.

This is Colby. He is movin, but more importantly, he is groovin. 13/10 (TT: ty2344583)
Will go check it out.
Erm, not worth a watch,.in my opinion. The portrayal of the small-time-thief-turned-'nice'-evil-baba is super problematic. It has at least 3 seasons, so it's appealing to certain masses, for sure.
There is a web series by the name Ashram in which a rich, fraud godman runs a cult & sexually exploits the women in it. Except that the baba is Bobby Deol jacked up, soft-spoken, and suave, and speaking Sanskritised Hindi. 🤦🏽♀️
It's somewhat challenging to explain to non-Indians that Stalin is the real name of a sitting Chief Minister and we have real persons named Che. I am acquainted with one Stalinjeet whose name literally means 'Victory of Stalin.'
This image displays a paused YouTube video interface featuring a sponsored advertisement. In the video frame, a young woman with dark hair pulled back looks distressed while looking off-screen to the left. Two men are visible in the background, appearing out of focus in a dimly lit, blue-toned room. Several interface icons are present, including a top bar with "Visit advertiser," a settings gear, and a "Skip" button on the right side. A black bar at the bottom contains a logo with a red sun design and the text "Vote For DMK," followed by "Sponsored · www.youtube.com... (🔗 youtube.com...)" and a "Watch now" button.
My YouTube ads all canvass voting for Stalin or the DMK. Some show Jayalalitha. I don't live in Tamil Nadu nor have I visited it recently. I wonder what the DMK's digital canvassing budget is. And what's up with Google Ads.
Kennedy is a eugenicist.
His words and choices to date provide ample evidence of his deep hatred for disabled ‘weaker’ people. All his ‘policy’ is driven by one goal: make the population ‘fitter’ by ‘weeding out the unfit.’
Speak of him as the open, rank eugenicist he is.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.
I live where the highest grade of Arabica in my country is cultivated. In case you ever visit.
a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.
This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
This happened for a whole year, which was most of the duration of the project. It stopped when the project ended. This was in addition to public harassment (because it was D&I).
Wikipedia now sends a 2FA verification email if it detects login from a new device. Not the best privacy measure but still a relief. Many years ago when I was working on a diversity and inclusion project, I used to get dozens of notifications of repeated, failed attempts to login or password reset.+
This young lawyer's story is incredible. I hope someone makes a movie out of it and gives her lots of money in royalty. www.instagram.com/reel/DMxoyD_...

An Indian court has rolled out its AI policy prohibiting the use of LLMs in judicial decisions citing risks of bias and overreliance. Good to see this.
