If it's made up of every work that was ever censored, chances are most of it would be pornography. Far bigger demand and market for pornography than political commentary, and most countries have laws for "public morals".
I don't know much about them but their wikipedia page states:
> The museum says it is nonsectarian, non-political, and that it does not proselytize.[4][5] The former president of the museum, Cary Summers, said the goal was to "reacquaint the world with the book that helped make it, and let the visitor come to their own conclusions. ... We don't exist to tell people what to believe about it".[5]
I read it as very much a move in the culture war. It's not a museum about religious texts in general. It's very much a sectarian enterprise, whatever the PR people write.
Yes, I understand it, I'm just saying I haven't heard anyone other than a consumer electronics journalist use the term. Everyone says 'dumb phone' (to mean the same thing) if the distinction is important.
After the issue was resolved the reporter was asked to wait before disclosure. The reporter waited three months before asking about it again. After that there was response but it took another month the approve the disclosure.
You are referring to the West African Ebola epidemic that started in 2014. There is also an ongoing outbreak in the DRC that started in 2018. That probably isn't receiving much international support right now.
> People are thought to be most contagious when they are most symptomatic (the sickest).
Some spread might be possible before people show symptoms; there have been reports of this occurring with this new coronavirus, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.
> As we move into manufacturing laptops, the factory will provide an ideal environment for research and development. We now have the resources to create more accurate prototypes in-house to get an up close look at various materials, chassis builds, keyboards, and more, empowering us to create a computer fit for the incredible creators, makers, and builders of the world.
I'm trying to work out why they think manufacturing their own laptops is going to be a profitable business. Margins on consumer hardware are razor thin even for the big players like Dell who have the advantage of scale. So far just being open source friendly has not been nearly enough of a market differentiator.
That said, I wouldn't mind considering a system76 laptop for my next workstation, except that they don't support one thing that Dells do exceptionally well: driverless docking stations. (And no, USB and Thunderbolt docking stations don't work well under Linux and I have no reason to believe they ever will.)
I like Drew on the blog post use a Thinkpad X200, and it more than suits my needs for a laptop, and I even shelled out the money for one of the 51nb x2100s. If System 76 bucks the current trend and makes a laptop in the style of an old thinkpad (To quote Drew: "The integrated GPU, Bluetooth and WiFi, internal sensors, and even the fingerprint reader can all be driven by the upstream Linux kernel. In fact, the hardware is so well understood that I have successfully used almost all of the laptop’s features on Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Minix, Haiku, and Plan 9. Plan fucking 9. It can run coreboot, too. The back of the laptop has all of the screws (Phillips head) labelled so you know which to remove to service which parts. User replacable parts include the screen, keyboard (multiple layouts are available and are interchangeable), the RAM, hard drive (I put a new SSD in one of mine a few weeks ago, and it took about 30 seconds) — actually, there are a total of 26 replacable parts in this laptop. There is a detailed 278-page service manual to assist you or your local repair tech in addressing any problems that arise.") I think they could easily charge a very healthy premium and get a lot of people to line up for it (myself included).
Systems like TPDNE can generate random fake people but can they generate multiple different images of the same fake person? If that is not the case then the existence of different photos should prove a person is real.
That doesn't state that it can't, only that it doesn't. Also, I am wondering about other GANs/image generation systems and not just TPDNE specifically.
