    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    As I said, AI is out. I went and talked to people in the music industry, and I just finished talking to a songwriter who is signed to Sony Nashville, and he said: "the industry is bracing for AI lawsuits right now, as any song with lyric or melody partially created or edited with AI cannot be...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    Well, now that I really understand how it's used, AI would defeat the purpose and would be inappropriate. As far as copyrights go, it's very complicated, but if you use someone else's system to create something with AI, then they potentially have the ability to claim a copyright on it. AND, you...

    I don't remember most of it, so you are likely correct

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    Maybe this is true for the country you live in, but almost nothing generated by AI is protected by copyright in the US. However some programs have restrictive terms of usage, which may be what your friend is running into, but I could list at least half-a-dozen AI music generators that are...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    BUT, your example of how you used it explains a lot. I'm still unclear as to why the website isn't sufficient. You just want something where you could highlight your chosen words and put them in a separate area? I'm not thinking well today (my health problem), so if this is frustrating, we can...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    Well, I know that's not what you want (AI generating lyrics), but I thought that you could have the option to have the AI generate sentences and use that as brainstorming to help the creative process (my brain is currently broken, so a jumble of words seems useless to me other than a...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    Thanks. Did you see my other post after that? In addition to what I posted in the other post, why is the verbasizer website insufficient? Why do we need a new one? For instance, I just made one about the church shooting in Minneapolis. fire ran slurs did Scallen week mourning reporters...

    As I strongly suspected, it appears there was nothing to the Windows update destroying SSDs: https://www.pcgamer.com/software/windows/after-4-500-hours-of-testing-ssd-controller-specialist-phison-rules-out-allegations-that-a-windows-11-update-is-bricking-drives/ I apologize. I'm really confused...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    I understand what it is doing and why. I'm pretty familiar with found poetry. I just wasn't sure whether the program was supposed to provide any assistance outside of randomization. The copyright pitfalls are potentially significant depending on the sources used. In addition to letting you...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    I understand now. I thought you had an old program that didn't work anymore, but you actually need a new program that works like an old program. As an extreme non-poet, I don't guarantee that I'll be able to tell if the output is helpful to a lyricist, but I'll give it a try. Was there any...

    is this laptop enough to run all new games?

    It won't necessarily "fall off after a couple of hours due to cooling issues". Laptops have gotten much better at avoiding throttling due to heat thanks to not providing enough power to the GPU to begin with. Starting with the 30xx series, a laptop with a 3060 (or whatever) will have the same...

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    There are a couple of fans in my system Fan Control can't recognize, but they don't make any noise, so I just chose to ignore them :) Actually, the only fans I can hear are the GPU fans.

    Cooling Performance vs Acoustics: What's More Important?

    Just to be clear, you have the source code? Or do you just have a copy of the program? If you just have a copy of the program, it could be a problem. I'd have to create an environment it could run in, but without knowing what environment it ran in originally. PCs were very decentralized until...

    Is it safe now?

    As I strongly expected, there was (almost) nothing to this claim: https://www.pcgamer.com/software/windows/after-4-500-hours-of-testing-ssd-controller-specialist-phison-rules-out-allegations-that-a-windows-11-update-is-bricking-drives/ As far as drives disappearing after Windows updates, I've...
