Police officers in any other Nordic country likely would have joined in when they saw that all is fine and it’s just a snowball fight

I wish we would see more of these stories here on Lemmy(but verified, someway, I don’t need AI fiction)

And yet another lost of reasons why these billionaires are fucking removed. Yes, im using the horrible R word, but “idiots” just doesn’t suffice.

These people are investing billions of dollars on unproven technology and now want to put trillions more in pushing those unproven technologies to space which is just removed levels of stupid. But the investments will happen, a ginormous amount of pollution will be made and it’s all nothing for humanity and a huge amount of money for a select few billionaires.

Fuck this time line, fuck removed billionaires

We need a wealth cap. Nobody should be able to do shit like this with impunity just because they have “enough money to do so”.

Give me a 1M wealth cap world wide and I’ll give you a world where everyone is happy at relatively equal levels of wealth

Yes, yes, let’s give our biometric data to nazi Germany in 1938, what could possibly go wrong?

Anthropic, a company founded by OpenAI exiles worried about the dangers of AI, is loosening its core safety principle in response to competition.

Anyone surprised?

Because education in the USA is a sad joke? Republicans have been hollowing out education for the past 5 decades or so and they worked hard trying to shove fundamentalist christianity in schools and science classes specifically

The US is tucked and can get fucked

Oh thank God, that is so much better and makes all the difference

But yeah, it makes little difference

You’re joking about your own ineptitudes? Bold strategy

This meme has more pixels than the image OP posted

Yay for clickbait bullshit articles

This is the right answer. Access to space should be government only as companies will guaranteed fuck it up

As soon as the US shit has passed, can we please setup a new UN, this time one with teeth, and have it globally arrest all fascists?

I don’t like wide nets like that, but fascism isn’t a “oh well we can talk about politics I guess” movement. It’s a cancer yhsteother you kill, or it will kill you.

We either root out fascism world wide or it will be back stronger again within a decade. Even then, we’ll have to be careful, but at least if fascist groups have been rooted out, we can breathe a little calmer.

Well, Russia is close to collapse, yes. Not days, for sure, but close enough. Ignore the lost money for a second, Russia lost 1.2 million abled men, plus god only knows howany wounded on top of that ((typically at least the same number, or more. So let’s call that 2.5 million men that will no longer be contributing to the economy, and about a million that will now much leech your economy (blinded, lost limbs, etc) with medical needs.

Russia has, say, 150M people. Say, 60% is working age, so 90M people of working age. Russia lost some 2-3% of that. That is not a small “oopsie we’ll fix it in post later”, this is an “oopsie we’re fucked” level

And that is just the dead and wounded. Russia blew through its savings, it barely has a military left to protect itself from other big players like China. Literally it’s only defence, currently, are it’s nukes and with all the corruption there, it’s highly doubtful that those are still functional in amounts high enough to be a credible defense.

So no savings, a huge cut in its workforce, it made itself the pariah of the world…

Yeah, Russia is fine tomorrow.

But next year? 5 years from now?

Russia is fuuuuuucked

How come some 25yo person is a director at Facebook?

I mean, even if she is a child prodigy genius, which she obviously is not as she is face first fist deep into AI, how the frack do you have even enough life experience to become a director of any large organization at that age unless you somehow cheated your way in?

Then reading the hat she’s doing and how she resolved it tells me she doesn’t know shit about computers, she just know how to type commands into AI systems

Is this the future? Am I going to end up being one of those long bearded magicians that still know the old technology, that still can still save the day by using shell commands?

And this wild conspiracy speculation is based on…?

Yes, yes, om sure the CIA is fucking evil and they’ve overthrown many governments and commit sabotage on a regular basis

None of that means that the CIA had anything to do with this violence.

Having lived through multiple of these violent events in Mexico, this is not a revolution in progress. Mark my words, the worst is behind us, and within a few days this will be utterly go e.

I can tell you this has more to do with the Narcos being fucking violent organizations that are reacting with revenge for their leader.

These glasses cams are small enough to no longer be visible as a camera.

I’m all for freedom to record outside but this is a step too far as this is not me making a video for me, this is Facebook using idiots to record the world 24/7 for them.

I’m fine with humans recording humans, immnot fine with companies recording me

I sometimes use ait, but specifically for subjects that I don’t know about and don’t want to know about.

I’m a developer, I’m all open source and Linux etc. right now I need to build a fairly straightforward rsync solution so that I can regularly update. A directory from a windows server and fuck me is it a shit show. On Linux it’d be a 5 minute task, here I’ve spent hours trying to first get it to run with cygwin which let me down a rabbit hole through the planet hell and back.

I fairly quickly pulled in Claude to give suggestions on how to get rsync with windows to work because I don’t want to know anything about windows. I want to actively keep that info out of my brain lest I get infected by it somehow, so I just spent an hour copy/pasting solutions and results to and from Claude

About half it’s solutions were wrong and dumb, but it "knew"certain things like certain versions of rsync in cygwin having a specific bug that affected me that would have me spend hours digging through gulp windows documentation

I got to the point where I dumped cygwin and I’m going to try wsl instead (should have done that from the first moment, probably, but Claude did not tell me THAT)

Point is: AI, so far, is pretty useless and generates little to no usable specificoutput, but it’s fairly good at getting you I right directions. For subjects you really do not want to get involved in, it’s a nice way to just move forward without a lot of headaches

That is, of course, if you’re okay with being recorded, studied, proddded, probed, have your asshole size measured because these fuckers want EVERYTHING from you in return for giving you almost nothing

you will be meat for the coltan mines.

Is that a reference to Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles?

Did somebody let Lennart out again? You know he shouldn’t be walking around alone outside, he’s just going to get himself into trouble.

On a slightly more serious note: systemd does some things nice, a lot of things it does very badly, and it really seriously needs to stop trying to push it’s grubby little fingers into every sub system out there.

All that is one thing, but the main issue with systems always seemed it’s main developer, Lennart Poetteting who was never one to shy away from drama and controversy, and not in a good way.

How the fuck is it that Israel can pressure literally the entire world on protecting them whilst they are executing a genocide?

Do they have shit on all world leaders? Are all world leaders so afraid of being called anti semitic that they’d happily support genocide and child murder just to look good? I mean, that must be one fucking good look to be worth all the blood.
