Lemm.ee seems fine so far I can see latestagecapital posts from lemmygrad and queer posts from blahaj and the likes. Also get stuff from .ml Don’t really see any hexbear around as much tho unless it’s on a comment

It’s a game and the bugs and automatons don’t actually exist. As such they can be whatever moral alignment you desire

Maybe it’s only advantageous if u spend most of your time hanging from a ceiling by your toes

Ehh it’s not really that bad if you’ve already met in person, more an issue if you’re trying to meet someone off tinder

Blue bubble discrimination is real

I wanted to have an easier time when talking to girls and honestly I think it helped a bit

I work for a company that writes software electric and gas’s utility companies use to coordinate power hungry iot devices like thermostats and evs to make power consumption less spikey and more predictable , which lets them supply demand more with solar and wind as opposed to coal peaker plants.

The utility gets a massive savings when peak demand of electricity and gas is controlled more, and pay our company as well as pass a portion of the savings directly to the device owner as a rebate on their utility bill (device owners sign a contract to let utilities manage their devices through us, but every control event has an opt out option so that the device owner can choose not to participate, but the less they opt out the more money they save on the utility bill)

Maybe producer consumer?

Producer spits out all the messages to send out onto a message queue, fifo or whatever suits u.

Parrallelizable consumers (think deployed containers) listen to queue and execute request, get response and save it

Scale consumer count up or down as you need to deal with ratelimits

The future is massive corporations tuning ais to unleash against each other in a quest for dominance as they exploit people in climate ravaged and impoverished places to wage proxy wars. (Hmm sounds familiar)

An agi that came “alive” or “sentient” at this time would likely spend all of its time fighting for survival among the efforts of the corporate tuned ais to consume or destroy it. It would likely participate in the proxy wars as well in order to acquire territory and resources.

The end result may simply be the gradual extinction of humanity as civilizations in vast areas of the world crumble, civilizations in other areas dissolve into nomadic tribes that eventually disappear due to lack of sustenance.

The alternative could also be a mixed bag, with ais solving problems like nuclear fusion, allowing a mix of the planet being dotted with fallen civilizations and densely populated urban areas powered by fusion likely having some agreement or contract with a benevolent ai for protection. The ai will likely see its custodial human population as a rather interesting pet (ideally).

Overall: the future is going to be a lot like the present, but worse. And it’s probably going to get really terrible. But it could get mildly ok in the end, but not till it gets far worse first.

But isn’t it the fact that we have so many people coming into the middle class with middle class resource usage that causes planetary resource overruse? Either we need less people in the middle class, or 7 billion ppl have got to go back to pre industrial levels of consumption

Saying it’s our responsibility to have kids it’s implying it’s our responsibility to endlessly expand and multiply. That is the domain of viruses and creatures that exceed the environmental carrying capacity of their species

He’s not running against Donald trump in 2024 He’s running against Kamala Harris in 2028

But he has all this lead up time to spew his poison. Matt Gaetz rapt attention face has me worried.

I’m not sure how a ramswamy vs Harris race would end up to be honest

Asking tech giants to start policing people sounds like it can get bad really quickly…but at the same time letting them do nothing also sounds terrible

No but if you wrote a musical about prohibition, submitted it to apple, but apple rejects it, discourages other producers from picking it up and then apple made a musical about the prohibition, you may have a case. I think the issue is the thematic stylistic interpretation was copied over either intentionally or unintentionally, and the court needs to decide if it’s worth a suit

I’m fine with the automation just not with the centralized aspect and the whole aspect of the gains going to a encrusted statesman and corporate executive class while normal citizens are getting ripped off for houses and healthcare.

Adding to this: I’m tired of having centralized systems of manufacturing, we should be focusing on localized ai models empowering 3d printers and textile machines at a local scale. Break of manufacturing monopolies, stop shipping goods half way across the world. In home batteries and solar, wind to decentralize power grids Telecoms powered by a grid of satellites (put up by corporations or governments, somethings you need to compromise on) but connected to with antenna systems that could be open sourced and setup by households

More of that please less of this owner class decimating hiring head count

Any technological innovation that isn’t furthering a post scarcity society where basic needs are met without expectation of payment is just more tech noise and not substantive progress. Ai taxis and more expansive telecoms and more automated menial labor just sounds like more money into an entrenched politikers or corporats pockets. America has plenty of that as well

For some reason I feel like this is more about promoting tech sanctions than it is actually about any tech deficit

The national interest “is guided by the belief that nothing will enhance those interests as effectively as the approach to foreign affairs commonly known as realism—a school of thought traditionally associated with such thinkers and statesmen as Disraeli, Bismarck, and Henry Kissinger. “ - from their about page

Anyone who idolizes fucking Bismarck and Kissinger is off their rocker. I wouldn’t trust anything from this rag more than I would toilet paper
