Probably. They will want to do everything possible to be able to prove that they took all measures at their disposal to stop serving the French market on top of taking all measures to have their business operations be outside of French jurisdiction.

Then Sony (or whoever) will simply use a VPN to bypass the block...

Though I guess if they stop operating in France entirely, there will simply be nothing left to sue, even if the company still exists elsewhere.


Unfortunately France is also a Lugano signatory, so we'll have to eventually prevail in France as well as Germany, and that will be a long and expensive project.

beIN, not Sony.

beIN also sued the VPNs

Only since Bezos. I used to actually pay for WaPo pre-bezos. It was fine for a while and then he started clearly messing with editorial decisions and I bailed. It's now a garbage source.


Like, philosophically? Because companies on Microsoft's scale can move heaven and earth to accomplish whatever they please regardless of difficulty. If it's difficult that just means it costs more money. Microsoft is planning to put ML infrastructure in space, but you're saying that building a support org, which Microsoft is very familiar with, is too hard because they're so big?


Well, dumb-ness is subjective. On one hand, it's hard to call someone like Richard Dawkins "dumb" in a broad sense, but as a man of science he knows what it means to study and research something before drawing conclusions... And you do not need to be a computer scientist to understand the basic principles of an LLM. In that sense, Richard Dawkins is displaying a side of him that is almost willfully dumb when he's waxing poetic about how "Claudia" is sentient.


Windows has gotten more stable, that's for sure, but I have seen BSOD's on every single edition of Windows, and that's only on my personal life. In my time in corporate IT I can tell you that Windows is generally much more problematic than MacOS for a variety of reasons, though modern MacOS certainly has its share of issues. But again, that's in a corporate IT environment, not regular consumer usage. Not sure how you got away with no crashing in your Windows experience, but congratulations!


I didn’t mean to say it never happened. It’s just that when it happened it was a memory stick, MB, or other non Windows specific issue
