I agree with most of your comment, but your math is very wrong. 36^12 hashes (lower case alphanumeric) / 126.9 GH/s = 33.7 million seconds, or about 1.18 years. Still way too weak for secure use, but about 16 orders of magnitude above the nanosecond range. How’d you calculate that?

That’s a nice ICE vehicle, would be a shame if its windows were smashed and its tires punctured…

It’s not hard to cause a lot of inconvenience with a little effort in a nonviolent way.

I knew what that one was going to be before even clicking it; some just stick in your mind.

Minecraft before the Microsoft acquisition.

To clarify, is it evil-ass rape, or evil ass-rape? There’s an important distinction!

Even worse!

Reduced-conflict intersection? How about an increased-conflict intersection?

Isn’t a million calories like 40L of gas? Anon’s more gas than human lol.

Apparently I sleep very still, to the point where it’s somewhat concerning to anyone watching. I suppose that would make me a good cuddler, assuming the other person doesn’t assume I’ve died in my sleep lol. Haven’t had the chance to try yet though.

I can’t, what is it supposed to sound like?

I like this meme; it requires some very specific knowledge to understand. :)

How else do u digest them tho???

it’s very likely actual electricity use will soon not be an issue, we are already flooded with too much solar power during the day, in maybe as little as 10 or so years we may have so much solar and battery we have essentially unlimited renewable power

That could be true in the future, but right now a large chunk of our energy comes from fossil fuels.

on top of all of this ai is in its infancy, who knows where it will be at in 100 years, maybe jobs are a thing of the past and we just spend all day socialising and spending time on our hobbies

Any AI that can take a significant amount of work from humanity is going to have an architecture fundamentally different than LLMs. They’re not thinking, they’re just spitting out plausible sounding sentences.

Wtf did I just read

Natural selection is essentially just a massively parallel Monte Carlo optimization algorithm that’s been running for billions of years. It’s so simple yet produces such amazing complexity.

This article estimates that GPT-4 took around 55 GWh of electricity to train. A human needs maybe 2000 kcal (2.3 kWh) a day and lives 75 years, for a lifetime energy consumption of 63 MWh (or 840x less than just training GPT-4).

So not only do shitty “AI” models use >20x the energy of a human to “think,” training them uses the lifetime energy equivalent of hundreds of humans. It’s absolutely absurd how inefficient this technology is.

Compared to what, >50% for a 4090 in a PC?

Last I heard they’re invading Denmark or something…

Thoughts and prayers to all the light from the accretion disk that is lost forever to the black hole. Someday it will be reincarnated as Hawking radiation, growing more and more brilliant until the black hole finally evaporates in a flash of beautiful light.

Seems some people think accuracy is limited. That’s not the case. From the article:

Immediate access to satellite measurements and navigation results is disabled when the receiver’s velocity is computed to be greater than 1000 knots, or its altitude is computed to be above 18,000 meters. The receiver continuously resets until the COCOM situation is cleared.

The limitations are enforced by the GPS receiver itself. You can buy “unlocked” GPS modules without these limitations, but they’re harder to get ahold of.
