  • I feel like something like https://www.storj.io/ is on the path to what we would want/need?

    There might be some additional requirements for a true CDN to ensure data is closer to where it’s needed and in as many regions as needed though with the right amount of bandwidth. The data gets stored all over the place, but that doesn’t mean its optimal. But they do seem to claim it’s faster on their website…

    Edit: For those not wanting to click, TLDR is they use excess storage around the world and make it accessible anywhere, and safe from failures. People with excess storage can join the network if they have enough storage/bandwidth and pass some tests. Their API is S3 compatible.




  • There has been yes, but it doesn’t mean it’s the right ruling law. The law varies on that by jurisdiction as well because it is a murky area.

    Edit: in the USA it might not even be illegal unless there was intent to distribute

    By the statute’s own terms, the law does not make all fictional child pornography illegal, only that found to be obscene or lacking in serious value. The mere possession of said images is not a violation of the law unless it can be proven that they were transmitted through a common carrier, such as the mail or the Internet, transported across state lines, or of an amount that showed intent to distribute.[

    So local AI generating fictional material that is not distributed may be okay federally in the USA.










  • There’s actual burn in, but there’s also perceived burn in (I made the term up) which this wouldn’t fix.

    If you leave the TV on for hundreds of hours playing 4:3 TV for example with black bars on each side, those bars aren’t emitting light. Meanwhile the content that is shown is slowly degrading those OLEDs.

    Eventually the content OLEDs are dimmer than the black bar OLEDs and you have “burn in” with the bars visible.

    So it could still be a problem for things like static displays where there isn’t always moving content.
