TBF that’s a cheat. They didn’t have to be the ones investigating, researching, and developing everything to make it all work for the first time.
The science today is very well established. While it doesn’t lessen the difficulty, nobody is reinventing the wheel at full price. They’re standing on the shoulders of very well established giants.
I’ve lived in left leaning areas for decades. Solar is everywhere, from rooftops to open fields. We don’t have a ton of wind, but there’s a lot of offshore farms and quite a few in the hills. Nobody is “taking” land, it’s sold by the landowner.
If right wing areas are blocking renewables it’s far more likely to be done so it props up the fossil fuel/power generation companies and has little or nothing to do with any actual drawbacks of renewables or their installation.
Yes. No.
Climate change at work.
Like when your kid fakes being sick to stay home from school then 20 minutes after the school bus goes by they’re running around playing. Can’t keep up the lie for 20 minutes. Imagine having to manage a lie for years.
Their society is the shareholders.
It keeps trying. I keep denying it.
I would far rather pay a fee for an OS, like I did for every computer I built up to Win 7, and not have to deal with M$oft’s BS and ad-pushing.
I should have been more clear: spinny removable storage like CDs.
Yeah, all my computers have spin HDD for storage and SSD for OS and most-used programs.
Back to spinny drives we go?
Determined, aren’t you.
Title pretty much sums up why we’re screwed.
lol, dude…at least make an effort to act like you read the article.
The bounty offer comes from the US State Department, following this week’s disruption of the criminal organisation’s activities.
Second sentence in the text.
Gonna be an AI full of memes and shill for industry.
People who have never used dry cell batteries haven’t a clue.
Don’t inject logic into the mental gymnasts all wanting to call it a burner anyway. It’s a lost battle. You’re absolutely right, though.
What benefits to “AI supremacy” are there? Going to hand the keys to defense and the internet to it? What could go wrong…
Digitally watermark the image for identification purposes. Hash the hardware, MAC ID, IP address, of the creator and have that inserted via steganography or similar means. Just like printers use a MIC for documents printed on that printer, AI generated imagery should do the same at this point. It’s not perfect and probably has some undesirable consequences, but it’s better than nothing when trying to track down deepfake creators.
This network of hundreds of Ubiquiti Edge OS routers infected with Moobot malware was controlled by GRU Military Unit 26165, also tracked as APT28, Fancy Bear, and Sednit.
Was curious what equipment the net was run on, looks like Ubiquiti Edge.
This is how you lose. I only use FF. I will switch to another browser if they enshittify with AI.
Starbucks hasn’t been decent for a decade, and it was debatably decent before then - you either liked their coffee or didn’t. I have definitely noticed a downturn in their coffee quality. Bland and indistinct. Same with Dunks, they used to have a distinct flavor, but that’s gone in favor of a watered down generic coffee.
They’re both suffering from enshittification, where prices go up, variety and quality go down in favor of propping up the quarterly report.
Anyway, point being, corporate coffee chains suck. Just buy from a decent local shop. Coffee and pastries, or even a real decent breakfast sandwich, can be had and taken on the go. Taste way better and supports a local business.
We’ve contributed to that. We got a PHEV (not a pure electric) that we probably put gas in once a month whereas before it was probably every 2 weeks to 10 days in a normal car.
EVs are awesome.
