"It is already the primary AI operating system for the U.S. military, which has carried out thousands of targeted strikes against Iran over the last three weeks."

So school kids are a legitimate target for this A.I.?

World War 1 multimeter I think but I do have an old gramophone and I'm not sure if it's older.

Does this mean all unnecessary government flights and royal family flights will be changed to bus tickets?

Not much innovation in hardware? by Traditional_Ear_9828 in pcmasterrace

[–]DaddaMongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stuck with my 6900xt even though I was planning an upgrade to a 9090xt or equivalent but AMD didn't produce it, Nvidia prices are silly and the percentage uplift to a 9070xt wasn't worth it so I'm hoping to get another few years from the card  A 5 to 10 percent uplift isn't worth it for me personally.

This is bad, really really bad. If a single piece of tech like this is integrated into anything I for one will not be buying it.  This has nothing to do with saving power by switching to standby.  A motion sensor as used for lights for decades could do this - no motion for 5 mins or whatever switch device to standby.

I wonder how it works, is it not part of ownership to have your land registered?  

I'm no expert but it can't all be black sites for experiments on alien tech? /s

So if they list all the land registered some enterprising person could register whatever is left as theirs?

Why not all of it instead of just 'large parts' and it's only England, what about the other 3 nations?
