I'm voting against him later today. LFG Ontario, we can't allow more of this.

You're still banging on about Anthropic? I used it as an example to make my point (which is that commercial usage of copyrighted works is illegal, nothing about making/distributing copies or uploading or whatever you think you're talking about).
But you're up and down this thread bending over backwards to not have a good faith discussion with people who are not lawyers, so it's incredibly difficult to take you seriously and at face value.
Why does the customer/user matter at all here when they're not party to the lawsuit? You can have no customers yet and still infringe on copyright by using something for commercial purposes when you're not licensed to do so. That's how licenses work.
Of course, that limits the damages since there arguably hasn't been any harm (which doesn't make it legal), so lawsuits aren't usually filed at that point; it's usually a cease and desist. Also, I don't have to argue anything. I'm not a lawyer.
I can show whatever movie I want at my house with my friends and that's legal, but if I charge $10 to show it, that's not legal. I don't give a shit, because I pirate everything and show it to whoever I want for free, but that's the law as written.
I really like the 9k Most Common Russian Words deck. But for me, I think the best way is to make my own from vocabulary that I am encountering in whatever courses I'm taking or whatever context I'm learning in. I also like to add an example sentence and pronunciation audio, along with stress marks.
I don't have much use for learning words out of context because I find them incredibly difficult to remember. I bolded that because I think it's important, especially if you are still finding ways to make Anki effective for you.
For example, I (like a lot of people) started with Duolingo and Busuu and I learned about 700 words from that; I exported those word lists to Anki and am continuing to add words that I encounter in other courses and also from Russian native speakers on YouTube to the same deck. I still do Duolingo most days but it's not very good at explaining things.
I would have to guess that your apartment is being heated by radiating heat from other apartments (probably below you) as well as insulated by good quality walls and windows, and then this is supplemented by radiators when deemed necessary by some kind of sensor.
It's also possible you have underfloor heating if you live in a newer apartment in a country where that's common. But it wouldn't be my first assumption.
I was constipated for the first time at 15/16. Didn't want to say anything. Not saying anything didn't help and I suffered in pain for several hours.
My advice to you: ask for help before it gets worse and more painful. Your parents will laugh but you'll get over it.
Hm, while almost all of the pet subreddits I used to visit allowed grief posts (which is what I thought you were complaining about), none seemed to have a problem with people showcasing their pets' corpses in photos.
Reddit's moderation must have descended to total dogshit or maybe there's one mod common to all these pet subreddits that's just really weird.
Receiving a copy of a copyrighted work (from anywhere) and using it for commercial purposes when the license doesn't cover that usage (or simply doesn't exist) is, in fact, illegal. This is why Anthropic was sued last year.
So you can get promoted and then fired at any time for 1-2 years afterwards? Sounds like a shit setup. And maybe a way to easily purge people (outside of the Trump nonsense).
Well, people in general seem to be more vocal when something isn't going right compared to when everything is perfect and amazing.
Let's also remember that the internet is not entirely reflective of real life, that people exaggerate, and that we only have the perspective of the person speaking/writing at a specific point in time.
I'm interested in learning whether that's even legal considering that discriminating based on gender identity is explicitly against the Charter.
Ah, you've reminded me to review how to ask someone to repeat themselves. I have only spoken via text with 1 native speaker so far and it was really eye-opening how unprepared I was, haha. I still have trouble with basic sentences that you might find in a kindergarten-level book so I think I jumped in too soon.
