You among others are the reason why I don’t do vacations in the US anymore. Most people here in Germany think like that now.

What about the pro Trump and pro US?

Running a thousand watts and not running a thousand watts can be quiet a difference depending on where you live. And then consider buying all of the hardware. In many cases it’s probably cheaper to just pay $40 al month.

It’s a good service actually. Just not free.

I’m starting to think that weapons are the only answer to the cancer of the world these days. At least it’s the only thing Trump will understand. Though, I hope that China will find a way to cure the cancer without declaring war on them.

Is Mastodon still a thing? I haven’t heard from it in a while.

TLDR: A former Azure Core engineer details how Microsoft risked losing OpenAI and government trust due to complacent decisions, including a plan to port half of Windows to a tiny chip, which the engineer deemed impossible. This mismanagement, among other issues, potentially cost Microsoft a trillion dollars in market capitalization and led to wasted engineering efforts.

Political rage bait completely unrelated to technology.

All of that and cat still lands on its feet.

Until minors can buy alcohol online.

I have nothing against paying for quality software even if it’s not open-source. I pay for Plex, Symfonium (Android) and Kagi. What I hate is yet another subscription for terribly software.

Wrong community. I don’t see how this is related to privacy. This is about ads.

Besides, its in their right to make any changes to Youtube that they want. You don’t have to use it. “Fuck these people.” is crosses the line.

Paying for good software should be normalized again. One way or the other you’ll always pay. If you don’t pay with your money, you pay with your data.

Should kids be allowed to buy alkohol in stores?

We’ve seen parents fail over and over again. Some parents definitely need a helping hand.

AI has been used in wars and weapons for decades. I don’t understand why people think it’s anything new. Also, recent conflics (as you mention them) would have happened with or without advanced AI weaponry. In some instances they are started by actors that don’t have access to AI.

Extend this to Horror movies.

Humans are also LLMs.

We also speak words in succession that have a high probability of following each other. We don’t say “Let’s go eat a car at McDonalds” unless we’re specifically instructed to say so.

What does consciousness even mean? If you can’t quantify it, how can you prove humans have it and LLMs don’t? Maybe consciousness is just one thought following the next, one word after the other, one neural connection determined on previous. Then we’re not so different from LLMs afterall.

There is no capital gains tax. There is tax on realized capital gains, which is income. Can you elaborate what you mean? I might be wrong.

Interest and profits from the stocks? Can you elaborats?
