In other towns where this is allowed, a representative of the entity, not the actual owner, was able to cast the ballot for the company after signing the necessary affidavit. Delaware allows for the owner of the LLC’s identity to not be public.

Yep no way this doesn't-

In a Newark referendum election in 2019, a property manager was able to vote 31 times because he was in control of 31 LLCs, which owned 31 parcels of land. The city then changed its regulations after this became public.

Ah it already did cause problems.

Why in the world would you put business on the same legal basis of actual citizens?

It's really location dependent. Some places you'll see the birds in seconds and others never. You'll need to know the climate, local weather, soil conditions, what else is growing in the area, time of year, etc. to get an accurate answer.

"I refuse (voiceover) work that states they'll take my voice and make an AI model from it," voice actor Brad Ziffer told CNBC. "The best way to protect myself is to just stay away."

As you should. There is a big difference between narrating and giving away personality rights.

But the article kind of negates the title.

However, experts say seamlessly replicating the way a human talks with AI is still a ways away. Human beings offer unique intonation, cadence, and emotion when they speak.

Voice artist narration for big title releases isn't going away anytime soon. And if it does the job is going to be replaced with technical/artistic jobs fine tuning the generated narration.

What I actually see happening in the short term is it becoming profitable to do generative narration of smaller authors and books that would be profitable using traditional voice work.

In time I could see this working it's way up the budget ladder into larger projects but that's still a way off.

I think it's next to impossible to write a guide on how to transition. It's so multidimensional and personalized that any guide saying do x, y and z is going to be wrong for someone. But maybe something very, very general can be written.

You've actually been at this longer than me so maybe you have a better idea of what transition is to you but I split mine into three broad categories; mental, social and medical.

Mental transition is working on how you view yourself and how you fit into the world. For me it mainly involves reflection on what exactly do I want, how do I get it, and why haven't I. Usually unpacking internalized transphobia for me but also involves integrateing 'girl me' me into my view of myself. Slots in with medical transition in that you may want to talk to a therapist to assist you with it and helps you decide if and how you want to medically transition. Fits in with social transition in it is how you decide to transition and overcome inhibitions to transition. Maybe the hardest easy thing to do.

Social transition is changing how you interact with the people and the world around you. Probably the first thing most people think of when they say transition. Covers a huge range of things like how you groom yourself, clothes, pronouns, voice training and many many more. How, when and why someone does one thing or another is going to be very personal and specific to them.

Medical transition is basically anything you need a doctor to help you with. I include feminizing HRT here even though you could technically do it by yourself in a lot of jurisdictions. I would also include any mental health consoling here. My advice here is to basically get in line the second you have an inkling that you are going want or need help from the medical community. The wait times for it can be months or years depending on location. If when you get to the front of the line and decide you don't want anything you can always decline and they'll go to the next person.

Huffman defended business decisions made by the company to charge third-party apps saying the API wasn’t designed to support these clients.

Then what exactly is it for?

We're happy to have API clients, crawlers, scrapers, and browser extensions

We want to allow developers to build great products powered by Reddit and we recognize our developer community is integral to the success of the Reddit platform.

Seems you were happy with third party apps and products for quite a while.

Or maybe it's just me.

Just need the people complaining about people complaining post followed by a rule baning complaining about people. Then we can get the golden meta post of complaining about the rule stopping you from complaining about people.

Just a simple call-reaponse meme. AnarchyChess ended spreading everywhere. Probably because chess took off with middle and high schoolers during 2020 lockdown.
