They're already ignoring robots.txt, so I'm not sure why anyone would think they won't just ignore this too. All they have to do is get a new IP and change their useragent.

"I burned this CD [to a blank CD]."

That's exactly where it stops making sense.

If you have a painting, and you show it to someone and ask "Could you paint this?", they would assume you're asking if they'd be able to sit down at a blank canvas and paint the same picture.

If you have a painting and say "I painted this", they're going to assume you're talking about the painting in your hands, not a reproduction you made that's hanging up in your garage.

lol if you want to go through life using words incorrectly and sounding like you don't know what you're talking about to people that do, be my guest. this is a comment thread about a word choice in an article that was clearly confusing for that very reason

No, because in that context it makes sense to assume he means burning to a blank CD.

If he showed me the official CD and said "My friend burned this", intending to mean "My friend made a copy of this to their own blank CD", I'd look at them and think "That's clearly not a burnt CD-R, that looks like a legit release".

"I burned the original disc" would never mean "I made a copy of the original disc to another CD-R" to anyone that actually knows what burning a disc is.

It would either mean "The original disc is a CD-R that I burned an image to", or "I threw the original disc in a fire".

Avoid local retail in favor of what, a website? If you're concerned about the data mining potential of this robot rolling around a strip mall then you should avoid the internet at all costs.

You're right, I'm more familiar with DLSS and thought both used it, but still, just because other companies are using it that way doesn't mean it's inherently a buzzword in every context.

DLSS and FSR are some of the best and most useful implementations of AI out there right now, I don't know why you're acting like it's just some marketing gimmick buzzword.

What you're describing completely defeats the purpose of the inspections (trying to catch someone in the act of hacking them, somehow) and they were scheduled. Also, you have only replied to me on this post.

You seem very confused.

When did I say anything about anyone having sex? What?

They're doing visual inspections of rooms because they don't trust the scary hacker people in them. What do you think telling them you're in the room is going to accomplish?
