I think they are selling hardware on reduced price so they can make money on cloud services. And by spying and selling customer data.

The problem is that investors want to invest in data collection, not in making new hardware and service.

While being right about crypto being meaningless for some people (I guess there are people valuing hope in decentralized monetary system, even if it is misplaced.), you failed to mention that most of other industries are equally meaningless and good part of them are even harmful: fashion, fast food, industrial food, banking - in a way we have it, cars in current form(no need for this huge tanks)…

In comparation crypto is just wasteful and isn’t harming anyone.

I came to say that. Not everyone has to change completely, reducing meat intake a little, eating meat with less emissions and even different beef farms haslve large range of emissions. There are different ways of raising beef.

So for sustainability there are multiple solutions.

For promoting veganism and reduce animal suffering only one, which I do support, but don’t put them together. It will only pusg people away from any improvement.

My GeoTIFFs do not agree.

This is just what is visible to users/customers which is just top of the iceberg.

Real use of AI is in every industry and best use case is for jobs that were imposible before.

AI has been paying of for decades, it is used in all industries for appropriate tasks.

Now it is even better we are doing stuff no one thought it could be possible and advancing our work.

Perfect use case is for things that are simple to do but take too much time to be economical for humans (ex. counting products, plants, trees, cars, disease detection…) and using additional data to make better decisions.

Generative AI (for writing text, coding,… ) is of course no where close to being useful, but it can interesting to try. It is just a toy, expensive one, but still a toy.

I do not, please inform me, since as far as I know Firefox was always trying to be featurefull browser.

And you just need to find good non science fiction way to deal with nuclear waste.

And some ethical ways of aquiring uranium.

With all that calculated in, I am certain how much cheaper it is.

Since it is paywalled I can only guess from the title.

I don’t understand the problem. He was payed for reading books and now we all have his voice. What did he expect?

Is there an AI imitating his voice making money? Is it being represented with his name? If not, what would be the difference with some person imitating his voice, whould that be stealing too?

Basically I don’t see any problem with me buying those books training local model and give it other books to read. That can not be illegal, right?

Giving it to other people mentioning his name would definitely be fraud. But stealing? I don’t know.

Selling it to other people under other name… I don’t see a problem.

But than we come to AI generated images and I do start thinking in that way. Thou if they can find someone that looks like him, and other person sounding like him… they are all good?

This thread reminds me of stackoverflow, most people are just convincing you in something else and it is obvious they have never been in your (and mine) situation.

Just answer question if you have some idea, yes we know python exist, that’s nice, but not an answer to this question.

Are we talking about present or future?

Nuclear has a chance in thorium and malten salt reactors, uranium is made for nuclear booms, not for safe energy generation.

Sadly, no one is investing enough in thorium and malten salt to make it available in next 10-20 years, we have better chance in fusion than thorium.

Until than, sorry, but while you are right, that technology is not yet available.

And are we taking into account safe storage of nuclear waste for thousands of years (which we as civilization still don’t even have) or not?

Today’s journalists are really superficial.

I just assume that everyone has some kind of agenda, so I don’t see real problem with it.

Can you find many accounts that equally represent pro and against war stances and reportings? I most certanly haven’t seen them, nor did I see comentes negating their stance.

I don’t have a goal to chamge yoir opinion I am commenting for other people seeing your comment so that they get differet view point and check for themselves.

I think the biggest issue is that a lot of people from US never before ventured on non-US part of the net and have problem accepting that some people have negatinve opinions on US foreign policies (which would be whole non white part of the world). And now that you are exposed to differences of opinion you react the same as for your internal politics - by seeing it as an enemy and not another human beings with different life experiences.

I jusy went over their posts and maybe 20 percent cover Ukraine, most are jusr critical of US and most are widely accepeted western news sites ( ft, economist, independent ).

Yes they were both aweful, but somehow Linus got out of that video looking better than Louis.

Louis was the guest, he needs to end up looking good. It is not only recording but montage too.

I remember Louis was defending Linus from people seeing it as bad representation, so this is just my own private opinion - Louis didn’t want to go to war with much more popular Linus, that’s when his channel exploded in popularly.

Yes Linux Gaming or Linux Daily chalenge, not sure right now but it generated a lot of discussion on the net.

He might be autustic or not, at that time I was giving it a pass since both of them were awkward, but with current discussion I remembered it immediately which is my instict telling me there is a connection.

Yes, that is just mine subjective feeling as someone, at the time, not knowing of LTT but loving Louis.

As depressive introvert I can say no one ever got dissapointed in me.

I also hope he will pull out of this phase.

I even jokingly said to my friend “That’s why New York can act badly.” thinking with all that shit he was feeling better in NYC.

He accomplished a lot in his life, that is also not easy to accept.

For me it was visit to Louis Rossman https://youtube.com/watch?v=Shn7LdIrViQ

Truth is, I didn’t know of Linus than, was only fan of Louis, but the way Linus was acting throughout that video was just unpleasant for me. I wouldn’t wanna be in Louis’ shoes than.

Second was recently in that Linux challenge where, I was convinced, he was working hard to find that bug and show to everyone how bas he is. His complaint of Linux was that it allowed him to delete software Linux told him not to delete. Yeah… cool.
