We have been on the same track in many respects since Reagan/Thatcher.

There is almost no chance you are not talking to a chatbot.

Thanks for that Lembot_0004!

(Not in any an LLM powered lemmy bot!)

I think they must have thought: ‘Well we thought four and a quarter billion was going to be enough. We don’t want to repeat the mistake, so let’s create an unimaginably large address space.’

Which, with the benefit of hindsight, now looks daft itself.

The ‘freedom’ they want only extends to having the freedom to do what they want regardless of how it impacts anybody else.

The vast majority of these people don’t want isolation. They need other people to exploit. Edit - or they want the freedom to exploit other natural resources (no doubt they see humans as a natural resource to be exploited) regardless of the impacts on other people, now or in the future.

I’m sure that silicon valley executives visualise a future where they own the machines that produce all intellectual property and do most jobs. They see a return to feudalism where they are the lords.

I think this greater vision is about as likely to be realised as it is that Elon Musk will invent full self driving, or robots that aren’t obviously remotely operated, or a tesla roadster, or a battery powered articulated lorry with thermo nuclear explosion proof glass, or building a rocket to get the US back to the moon before the Chinese in what is clearly a new space race/pissing match. Or a hyperloop, or ever getting anywhere near to building a colony on Mars, or, or, or.

But I don’t think it is just a case of AGI or bust. LLM’s augmented with ai agents have a very real potential to replace a capitalism-destabilising percentage of white collar jobs without AGI.

Just like the dot com bubble popping didn’t kill the web, I do think it is unlikely that any possible current AI bubble popping will kill capital’s push to automate jobs away.

(And as far as I can see the AI bubble is the result of massive capital expenditure rather than rampant speculation, so because I am pretty confident in the ‘value’ to capital of LLM’s + AI Agent’s, I don’t really see it as the same kind of a bubble as the dotcom bubble.)

Germany are militarising. This should end well!

Yeah using tor broswer is generally slow - adjust expectation and see it as a necessary tradeoff for some privacy and it is fine.

Further than that, browsing the ‘dark web’ has mainly been a boring/frustrating experience, but going forward, between tech oligarch-surveillance-capitalists co-option of the web on one side, and increasingly authoritarian Western governments on the other, the dark web might be the only place to get an online experience something like I was told the internet was going to be a few decades ago.

Absolutley not.

My sister is a national champion at her fight sport, something I also took part in and happened to fight a female world champion (in training) at.

The sciencer is unequivocal.

You are deluding yourself and you are causing people to simply say trans people are unreasonable.

That is on you and your type.

Well fucking done.

Just stop buying their stuff in the first place and move on. Linux desktops look nice enough these days.

Typos ignored, only one in six is able to accept this fact. America has a way to fall.

Sorry America voted for this twice. You do not get to disown this after the fact.

No idea what is going on here but maybe she was just moved location for a few days and carried with her a few changes of clotehes etc.

Edit - I am not claiming there isn’t a conspiracy happening. Just that maybe the white box of shit a convict carries from one location to the other might not be it.

If there is a bigger conspiracy do not be distracted by a white fucking box.

Presumably this is related to their abandoning whatever policy they were going to adopt regarding ‘antisemitism’; (in quotation marks because now the term antisemitism only means ‘justification for genocide’).

Gazan victims of genocide at the hands of the jews *** - the future warcrime trials are coming or all semblance of a civlised world order is lost. On which side of history are you? - are semites too, so clearly the term ‘antisemitism’ as some kind of catchall term trying to defend against a holocaust is now meaningless.

*** And yes I say jews, rather than zionists. The silence is deafening. In an ideal world Jewish people wouldn’t have to defend their state’s actions. At this point they don’t have the choice not to, if they wish to be viewed as neutral.

Fourier made similar discoveries a few decades before - at least in terms of co2’s climate warming potential.

But yeah, women have been written out of the history of scientific discovery so Eunice Foote should be recognised. Joseph Tyndall also made similar discoveries at the same time. People do independently arrive at the same conclusions.

At some point they’ll have to bring out the big guns and murder Bob Dylan.

Yes I do speak French.no I am not subscribed to le monde.

I am interested in the Irish perspective, not the French.

Rich on paper at least. I am interested in what has happened with the Celtic tiger debt bubble, and what co ditio s are like for Irish people genwrally
