Fair enough, but isn’t it reasonable to want the president of the United States to be someone who doesn’t fall apart after 9pm?

Yeah this is reporting on the feedback from a focus group of like 20 people conducted by some Latino TV station… Not sure how representative that is of the wider electorate…

Please tell me, scientifically, why you are so sure that people of faith are wrong?

Because they all offer competing and mutually exclusive hypotheses.

Christianity tells us that the one true path to salvation is by accepting Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour.

Hinduism tells us that our next life will take place in this world, based on our actions in this life.

Islam tells us that Mohammed is the one true prophet.

Buddhism says that there are no prophets, enlightenment only comes from within.

They make contradictory claims, so by definition they can’t all be right, and they typically claim that they are correct and the other explanations are false, so even if one religion is correct, the rest (comprising of the majority of the faithful) must be wrong.

Google Messages definitely supports dual SIM, I have a physical SIM and an eSIM in my device and you can choose which one it sends from on a message by message basis

Pretty ironic seeing Rolling Stone of all publications displaying a disapproving stance on drug use

I don’t recall the previous commenter mentioning anything about Facebook. Making a comment that is anti something doesn’t automatically mean they’re pro something else.

Step 1: Feel like getting into a comment section argument

Step 2: Put words in the other guy’s mouth and argue against those

Step 3: Make yourself look like a bit of a tool

Is this the best use of your time?

Musk said. “If you get to the 100 million vehicle level, which I think we will … you’ve got a kilowatt of useable compute,” Musk said.

A whole kilowatt? “I think you could have on the order of 100 gigawatts of useful compute.” Ah.

“And unlike laptops and our cell phones, it is totally under Tesla’s control,” Musk added.

They clearly seem to think that they can do whatever they want with their customer’s property

don’t come with a requirement that drivers watch the road

Seems it’s like every other Mercedes then

Fuck Google too

If you wanted to do something like this you could put the charger on one of those electrical plugs with a timer, or a smart plug that’s switched on when the battery reaches a certain threshold

Models are getting more efficient and hardware is getting more powerful, it’s completely feasible that open source, self hosted, GPT4 equivalent and better models will be completely viable to run as individuals for reasonable costs (hundreds, not thousands) in the not too distant future.

As always, the will and knowledge to use the tools falls to the individual.

Life’s pretty good here in Australia. No neighbours on the border causing problems, weather is generally good, lots of wide open empty nature to get out of the city, average salary is $93k and unemployment is low, crime is low. Inequality is a problem although our Gini coefficient has actually lowered recently. There’s a lot of life to enjoy, and really the endless stream of negativity is only experienced through the media, not in real life, so I switched off the TV and just focus on what’s going on around me, enjoying the people, places and activities that I like, and things feel quite positive.

Turn off the news, it’s bad for the psyche.

We’re gonna need a bigger regex

Millions of Facebook users outnumbering previous users 100 to 1 will kill it. Oh, there’ll be more activity than ever, but it will be a sanitised corporate safe space for advertisers, where millions of normies argue about politics, with misinformation and ads sprinkled throughout.

Joe’s poses really don’t help dispel the whole hair sniffing meme

Twitter has always sucked and destroying it at his own expense is the one good thing Musk has done. He should buy Facebook next.

Mouth open, shadow on chin - they turned their logo into a soyjak

Seems fitting tbh

Everyone talking about hacking the firmware to extract the private key

Me just taking a photo of the deepfake

I’m running Ubuntu on my laptop and it has a dropdown list on the login screen to select DE

Sucks for them. This is what happens when you buy into the corporate, locked down, sanitised and monetised walled garden.

Privacy first and FLOSS software have been out there the whole time for people willing to invest the time (and money, but often it’s cheaper than the commercial option) to learn them and gain those benefits for themselves.

But if people want a device so they pick up the one with the shiniest marketing and then wonder why it’s shoving ads down their throat, well, that’s what they get for not researching the options. There are alternatives, they’ve been posted many times over in this thread and similar ones.
