There's a new feature in Windows 11 that apparently trains AI locally on everything you type and it's hidden deep in settings and on by default?

@Andrea19aaa You're an ignorant motherfucker.

@MJPiazza2 @nmheath0377742 @222rainclouds Happens of you don’t know how to build a house. This is the point, but americans can’t understand something this simple

@ReichlinMelnick Illegals don't get due process nor do non citizens.
Check yourself into a hospital.
English
This should scandalize anyone who believes in DUE PROCESS. The Trump admin is rushing to suddenly reschedule huge numbers of immigration court hearings for immigrants, so they can order them deported when they miss a court hearing they never knew about.

Scoop: A new immigration court strategy is emerging: mega hearings that may result in more orders of removal if people are not there on time. Lawyers worry these target immigrants without attorneys and who may not know their hearings have been pushed up. npr.org/2026/05/26/nx-…

@Icepick87 You are aware that game mechanics can’t be included in a copyright and only expression and idea can, right? I just got to make sure we are on the same page here.
Cause even while arguing with the masses I still do research. So far Hoyo hasn’t broken any rules.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero.
Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone.
I hope this video clears that up.

@Elm2026 That's not even comparable. We're talking about games here that are virtually identical. We're not talking about the difference of simple color choice or how you do one action like the other.
No, of the two games we're comparing here, one is basically a whole straight replicant.
English
@Icepick87 But yet again I bring you to the point that the mechanics are too simple. A Flash game like “Nodes” from 2007 may not be an exact replica, but at its core it’s the same (activate all dots by moving a line).
English
@Icepick87 Aside from the mechanic, which is too basic to patent, the physical look may be similar, but it’s different. On top of that you don’t play this in ZZZ in an endless sequence of levels,

@Elm2026 Where is the satire? There has to be direct satire. Just slapping a minigame in a game does not fall under parody in the general sense.
English
@Icepick87 But then it does fall under parody as the application inside ZZZ is so minor by comparison to the real gameplay that it does not matter.
English
To make something plagiarized as fair use, there's a narrow criteria. It basically has to fall under commentary, parody, or something that truly embellishes the nature and element of the game to be "fair use".
English
@Elm2026 You don't need to "fill" a claim. It just has to exist. Video game authorship is like book authorship. Dude made and coded his game and its elements. He published it (2 different versions, 2 different platforms).
Basically copying his work is plagiarism. Not fair use.
English
@sansnwnka62386 I remember when TF2 existed before Fortnite.

@NagaBruh You sure about that? 🙃

@Forgott05316033 For all of you mentioning the game primo (plays.org/primo/) That one looks like a rip of the original game jam version I made for this game, Splines 'n Shapes, which I made in October 2020: ldjam.com/events/ludum-d… sharkwithlasers.itch.io/splines-n-shap…
English
@mount_tai70 Oh, like this one?

@GRdotGIF TBH every "design choice" that they "copied" from you was completely obvious (no other way to do it) except the background. Also, I don't see the point of being bitter instead of viewing it positively as your simple little game got much more exposure than it ever would have.
English
@4nkpaked That's not my thing to deal with. I just know IP laws are a pretty big deal.

@GRdotGIF okay but also your game is just a 2d version of that puzzle in half life alyx so idk man
English
@clashroyaler68 He made his game before the ZZZ devs. Unless you have a bunch of games that are similar to his, it's not generic.
English
@killiorrNJ @GRdotGIF the game is too generic to say that anybody coped anyone. there are points and the objective is to connect them, there are only so many ways you can do this like drawing, connecting shapes/lines etc. and the parts where he claims they copied him are just basic game design
English
@4nkpaked No, but it being an outright clone is a concern.
English
@Elm2026 Patenting is one thing, but the fact the game is published establishes the author has copyright.
English
@GRdotGIF @Forgott05316033 You had your chance to formally copyright the game and patent the mechanics. But you chose not to. It’s your loss for lacking the basic foresight and letting yourself be taken advantage of.
But making a fuss at the very least gets you free marketing, and for that I applaud you.
