Would that be before or after you elect a fascist “dictator on day one”? In a country where living costs make it impossible to have kids? Where healthcare spirals out of control and people don’t call an ambulance because of fear of bankruptcy? Where 12 year kids are forced to bear their rape babies to term? You are literally on the cusp of fascism you moron.

There is plenty wrong with China and ramming boats is not nice. But your ghoulish lust for blood and destruction is disgusting your fucking fascist prick.

How good does it work on an external 4K monitor? Can you watch 4k video? I imagine youtube and browsing reddit or news online shouldn’t be a problem.

Basically I’d like an ultra low power PC for boring desktop stuff on 4k monitor.

China bad propaganda. Instead of talking about the horrific civil war in Sudan, lets talk about ramming some ships and get the US involved in that… fucking insanity.

PS: Let me make this clear: I don’t give a shit about what China does unless it involves actual ethnic cleansing and mass rape. If we don’t give a shit about the latter, we shouldn’t “get involved” in the former.

If I run some AI model on my GPU and power my computer via solar power and some batteries, am I actually contributing significantly to GHG emissions?

Like what is the embodied energy of an AI model?

As usual, pundits and scientists confuse what is and what could be with the truth. For example plastic recycling isn’t possible because “right now economics don’t make it profitable”. Meaning capitalism is killing us, not plastics. I suspect the same is true for AI.

Don’t they HAVE TO open their messaging app now with the “EU Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act”?

EDIT: Huh, no they don’t (link) cause they are not “core platform”…

You’d need to grow the third party / greens by having them become a viable party in local elections and state elections first. The greens have failed to do that. Which means they have no chance except to spoil the election.

Not sure what sapphire means, but here is the article. Just appending records and differential backups would seem to be the way to go.

the new optical disks are claimed to be “highly stable so there are no special storage requirements.” The researchers tout an expected shelf life of 50 to 100 years

I had (naively) hoped that starlink wouldn’t even need a license to operate in a specific country. When their satellites eventually fully communicate between them without ground station it becomes incredibly powerful. Sort of like one of those ancient world wonders. Technology now allows to live and work everywhere in the world or on the ocean in seasteads.

Unfortunately it’s owned by greedy oligarchs and the planned multiple constellations make a kessler syndrome more and more likely.

I wish there was a cheap and millennia-long lasting microfilm you could transfer books to. A projector is a pretty simple device to operate. Hmm that reminds me of “Last Words (2020)”.

Well yeah but BluRay is still much more expensive and smaller capacity. Lets hope this new 125TB disk works out

M-Disk is rated to last like 100 1000 years. They are also working on a 125 Terabyte CD. Optical storage is the way to go.

Fascism.

People have been lied to for decades and we all know it’s going to get worse in the future. The democrats are neoliberals who will continue to exploit people. The news media and social media are all owned by oligarchs. Wealth inequality is getting worse. Climate change won’t be solved and will make all things worse. Why should people vote for the status quo? Work hard, get fucked? No solidarity, no rational action, no plan. And nuclear war when?

Fascism and nationalism is not just something to break this but also has the better story. Something the stupid masses can believe in again. Trump is telling them everything they want to hear.

First photo looks rather unspectacular: https://www.space.com/nasa-solar-sail-space-photo

NASA also has a “spot the diamond in the sky” challenge haha: https://www.space.com/nasa-solar-sail-space-photo

Unfortunate side effect. They think the free market and some advertising will fix it! /s

But it’s also social media manipulating and propagandizing young people, reactionaries boosting the worst voices and grifters pushing whatever outrage gets them clicks.

And also, we know climate change is coming and with it billions of refugees. And we keep supporting proxy wars. Capitalists love this because of cheap labor. Socialists believe in solidarity, and liberals believe we can’t let them die or suffer. Which is true but people do also have selfish interests and know unbridled refugee policies will lead to collapse of Europe. If you wanted to stop refugees and immigrants you’d have to project a pacifist foreign policy and solidarity abroad. But then you become a Putin apologist (or before that Assaad).

I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but the rise of fascism in Europe and the US seems inevitable to me :(

What’s ABI? API compatible with linux kernel? EDIT: Never mind, Application binary interface

And what’s TCB?

Hmm this reads like propaganda. Hey wait a minute, VOA?!

Of course this is basically “socialism” - Nations protecting their economy from cheap goods so that they can build up and maintain their own vehicle and drone manufacturing. And seeing how efficient the drones proved in Ukraine this is smart.

This is how imperialism always worked. This is just protectionism couched in “china bad”.

I think it’s a problem with VPNs

So let the free market sort out the organ redistribution problem!

I think it would be easier, since it does not require agreement on transaction between two parties, only signing your own transaction. Anyone can fork and clone anything, and then add to their own signed version. All that is required is that you cloned from an existing trusted version and you made these changes to it. It’s easy to verify.

It only requires that the user can select some release group that they trust and store their public key.
