Dead Internet theory is becoming more than just a theory

sounds like fun, I should get this game when I get back from work

“takes a conservative turn” - how to spot a journalist who learned about russia yesterday.

“It’s NoT iSrAeL iT’S jUsT nEtAnYaHu” smells very much like “It’s NoT rUsSiA iT’S jUsT pUtIn”.

Keed using it, set up smartd to check up on it regularly and send you an email if something goes wrong.

Do you want zombie apocalypse? Because that’s how you get zombie apocalypse.

I think the word you’re looking for is “funny”.

I think it’s like this: what used to be group in regular permissions output is a union of group and ACL mask in ACL output. Mask sets the upper limit of what ACL can do, so if mask is rw- then it’s impossible to set a r-x ACL permission because allowing execution is not allowed.

This seems to be more geared towards enterprise environment where it could be complicated to cleanly define groups, since you can only give access to one you might run into a problem where dept. A needs access to that directory but also person G from dept. B and person K from dept. C.

Oh to play Outer Wilds for the first time again.

But as good as that sounds in theory, I would rather keep my memories untampered. Brains are really bad at actually remembering things as they were at the time when they were remembered, any tampering might as well go unnoticed. I would rather not experience my favorite media for the first time again and also not risk getting my entire personality rewritten because of a bug or even worse - deliberate action.

Futureproofing, I guess, but also I’m sure there are things other than language models that can benefit from a dedicated processing unit, like photo processing, smaller models, Lens, etc.

If it’s all in the cloud - yes. If some/most of it runs locally - still yes with a caveat - hardware acceleration can make it run both faster and at a lower battery cost, same how every computer has a dedicated graphics chip, whether as a separate expansion card or a separate module on the CPU. Yes, you technically can do all that math on CPU, it’s called software rendering, but rendering done with a purpose-built chip is so much better. Same logic applies to “AI”.

Starlinks do actually have stationkeeping thrusters, thats how they can spread apart after a group of them is deployed together, and that’s how they can have 5 year designed lifetime at an orbit this low.

Because it does matter, motherfucker has millions of people listening to him and a worldwide social media that he controls. Even if his opinions are trash, he amplifies and spreads this garbage, and gives a platform for the scum of the earth who wouldn’t have it otherwise.

Fucking Henry Ford of our age.

Atmospheric drag, not gravity. ☝️🤓

Although technically correct because gravity is stronger on lower orbit owing to being closer to the Earth.

I can even understand unwillingness to give ATACMS, you don’t have a lot of them and need them all to fight Mexican drug cartels or whatever you would use ballistic missiles for in 2023.

You don’t even use f16 anymore, and just sold some to Vietnam recently.

There’s at least few hundreds Abrams tanks sitting in the desert in dry storage. But no, 31 is all we get.

And the total clownery of political debate where at least two candidates build their platform on being friends with russia and china and stopping all support to Ukraine.

And the total clownery of passing a lend lease act in 2022 and then not using it - trusting Ukraine to win so as to not burden us with returning leased hardware, but not trusting enough to give enough to win.

I’m glad you have some optimism left in you. I don’t.

Trump or that clown Sunak winning your election will have catastrophic effects for my country who’s been in full scale war for almost 2 years. All the while the “allies” drag this war out by giving bullshit reasons to not send long range missiles and aircraft (uwu 5-8 months basic proficiency for fighter pilots proficient on a different platform , also known as “if they started even last year, f16s would be flying at least SEAD by now and not relying on a jank adaptor to launch HARM”), and decide that sending 31 Abrams tanks is good enough for a 1200km long frontline.

I had some optimism in March 2022, despite how bad everything looked at the time, it slowly diminished to what it is now by Spring of 2023 when it became clear that goal #1 for our “allies” is NOT to end this war, as quickly as possible, but to bleed russia out, death by a thousand cuts, all with our lives.

As will be every year after that. It’s all downhill from here folks.
