What you’re describing is literally the KGBs playbook and no it doesn’t work in anyone’s favor but the ones spreading propaganda. All you’ll end up with is an even less informed and apathetic populace and we’re already struggling with that problem. That works in favor of dictators and fascists. Democracies on the other hand require an informed and engaged populace in order to function.

You’re suggesting the solution to AI slop spewing racism is more AI slop somehow “debunking” racism? How would that work exactly? This sounds like a propaganda wet dream.

You should look up how Russian style propaganda works. It isn’t by lying convincingly but rather by flooding all channels with so much noise that it requires major effort to determine what’s true and what isn’t. When you’re drowning in bullshit most people will give up and just decide to believe whatever agrees with their personal opinions rather than whatever the reality is and it’s a lot easier to manipulate vibes than it is reality.

This is why you never enable SMS based MFA. TOTP is well established and just works. If you need even more security FIDO2 devices like YubiKey are a thing.

Absolutely not, Trump is going to get his bribe. The only one who gets a freebie is daddy Putin because it sure would be a shame if he started leaking the files he has on Trump.

Sure it’s a useful skill but not one in significant demand. We have an absolute glut of MBAs and a desperate need for anything but an MBA so why are we paying people to get more MBAs?

The point is we don’t need more MBAs, we need people educated in useful skills. Should every MBA program be closed? No probably not, but we definitely have way more than we need. Cutting funding for things like MBA scholarships and closing down the majority of those programs will go a long way towards moving the majority of potential future MBA students into useful programs. We need less managers and more engineers, fewer CEOs and more chemists, hell fewer analysts and more plumbers.

There are many problems with modern capitalism and even if we never handed out another MBA degree again that would not even remotely solve everything, but the MBAs are making the problem worse. It’s a minor thing but it’s an easy thing to do and it would make a difference small as it is.

This isn’t his own UN, this is just a blatant way to bribe Trump in the hopes that you’ll get something out of it. Like all Trump cons the only ones who will be paying into this are suckers or people that already have leverage on Trump and can guarantee compliance (in which case this is just an extra money laundering step).

China is pushing hard to make their domestic brands the new standard world wide so they’re not worried about whether the bubble pops or not. They want to drive prices down even if that means selling at a loss because they know that’s what it’s going to take to dislodge the entrenched players. For better or worse it’s likely a winning strategy because the existing players are more concerned with maximizing their quarterly profits rather than meeting any kind of consumer demand or indeed even selling to consumers at all.

I doubt it will take a couple years. They’re burning through so much cash right now that they’ll be bankrupt in a couple years and despite sunk cost fallacy they won’t let it get that bad. At some point they’ll cut their losses and pivot to some other new fad. The small handful of uses that make sense will stick around and a few companies will be in just the right place to make it turn a profit but the vast majority won’t. Some will go bankrupt (if we’re lucky Meta and/or X will be one of them) and some will just write it off as a failed experiment. Either way just as hard as prices spiked we’ll see them cratering before they rebound back to normal. Six months would be highly optimistic, but a year probably isn’t out of the question.

Of course all of this might be moot if Shitler manages to start WW3 by attacking Greenland. If that happens RAM prices will be the least of everyone’s worries.

It was in the news sometime around the middle of Biden’s term. At the time there was a lot of discussion about if it was real or not, some kind of disease or being caused by something, environmental or some kind of weapon, etc. There were a lot of people reporting symptoms and very little common between them all except for a lot of them having worked in the same regions/buildings.

Don’t even need to turn it off, it literally can’t do anything without somebody telling it to so you could just stop using it. It’s incapable of independent action. The only danger it poses is that it will tell you to do something dangerous and you actually do it.

The Nvidia PR team. They keep trying to spin more data centers and even more of the US GDP being gobbled up by slop generation as some kind of consumer win but nobody is buying it and their whining is starting to annoy Jensen.

In the late 90s I saw a piece demonstrating an optical 3d storage system that had a capacity about an order of magnitude greater than the at the time brand new HD DVD and Bluray discs. I assumed this clearly superior format that already had a working demo would obviously kill other optical media. Turns out nobody could figure out how to manufacture one at a price anybody was willing to spend.

Entirely not the point.

Be careful with this statement, there’s two very different ways this could be interpreted. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’re alluding to the end of WWII and how Hitler chose to leave it, but it could also be interpreted to refer to the start of WWII.

Churches need to lose the blanket tax exempt status. If they want to be tax exempt they should file as a non-profit like all the other tax exempt non-profits. Of course they would never do that because it would mean actually functioning as a non-profit.

Maybe you should stop assuming things before commenting. And in general. You might also want to reread the article you seem to have skipped some important details.

Eh, maybe. The actual performance seems to be unknown. They’re assuming the geekbench score is legitimate, but there’s no way to really know exactly how well it will do when it actually ships. It’s probably safe to assume somewhere between the two, but either way it’s not competing with current gen AMD or Nvidia cards, and might not even be competing with current Intel GPUs.

I was basing that on the quote saying it rivals a 4060.

Seems like no matter what country you’re talking about the rich would rather do anything but address the underlying problem as that would mean a less extreme wealth gap.
