This is actually cool. The normal alert system on the phone doesn't push images, just text (or at least, none of the alerts I've ever seen have pictures). Having a picture of the victim and/or suspect would be way more helpful than a description. Unfortunately, I don't use TikTok :/

They already have precedent that a monkey can't hold a copyright after that photojournalist lost his case because he didn't snap the photo that got super popular, the monkey did. Bizarre one. The monkey can't have a copyright, so the photo it took is classified as public domain.

Part of the law around copyright is that you have to also be able to defend your work to keep the copyright. Animals that aren't capable of human speech will never be able to defend their case.

As long as they don't ban antidisestablishmentarianism or pnuemonoultramicroscopicsilicovolvanoconisis I'll be okay.

If I can get just one of those on the board, I automatically win.

I would have thought the white house would have already had the best kind of fiber lines available in at least the country, if not the world. But then again, the longer I live the more I see that nothing is done intelligently or is even close to the best it could be.

To not be corporate owned at all? Reddit used to be all those things, too. As was Digg. Until they had a critical mass of users and began trying to turn a profit.

lmao nice.

If we're not going to follow the message on her, we don't deserve her.

Did they ask for it back or something?

Perhaps two pigeons could carry the hard drive on a string. I've heard tell of swallows that have done this with coconuts.

Friends I know IRL: Thumbdrives.

Friends I only know via the Internet: Torrents or IRC filesharing.

Though knowing that a homing pigeon with a thumb drive is actually faster than the fastest Internet network on the planet, maybe I should simply invest in a coop and some pigeons. 🤔

They're right. AI is smarter than them.

We don't know the effects of inhaling them (yet)

Pretty sure I've seen what happens before.
