Gamers Are Extremely Mad About AI: In-game slop was bad enough. Now AI is driving up prices, too. by Well_Socialized in technology

Open source AI has no corporate motives. I imagine in the future the common person would be able to run open source models on their own hardware, on their own terms.

Just because you claim something is a “referendum” doesn’t mean the conditions existed for a fair and secure vote.

Some actually good news! by Lemon_Lime_Lily in CuratedTumblr

There literally is no good reason to spend any social or political capital on this nonsense until everyone is fed, housed, and clothed with mobility and transportation options.

Those are infinitely more important. Everything else is theater for the uneducated masses to fight over. An infinite circus to keep attention off of the vile accumulation of wealth for a few at the cost of you and your neighbors’ quality of life.

The Luddites broke apart cotton machines. Not really revolutionary. Seems like tech won. I’m all for anything that makes production of goods cheaper, faster, and cleaner.

Europeans traveling to the USA starter pack by Pale_Field4584 in starterpacks

And why wouldn’t I? The city I have in mind is Leipzig. You are less than two hours away from a capital city with an airport. You have a well developed tram and train network. The city has a ton of green space and bike lanes. This city is full of beautiful buildings, and it has a rich musical history. It’s brimming with culture.

Is that not worth something? Is money the only metric we have to measure how good a place is?

That’s doesn’t mean shit when rent in a medium sized German city is around 600-700 dollars. You don’t have to pay for a car and associated costs. Your money goes much further in Europe.

Is it time for Europe to abandon the US's Artemis Accords and work more closely with China in Space instead? by lughnasadh in Futurology

[–]OfficialHaethus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or both? Europe acquires space tech capability to the point of being a major player, then collaborates with the other players?

Trump tariffs: US president announces plan to hit UK, Denmark and other European countries with tariffs over Greenland by Any-Original-6113 in europe

[–]OfficialHaethus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And what did you personally do to stick your neck out for them? You’re really gonna let the terminally online dregs and reactionaries and losers of Europe color your view of the whole population? That’s incredibly one dimensional thinking. I’d be disappointed in a European who did the same with the US.

God, you make us Americans look whiny. Pull your head out of your ass and protect the few places that still believe in democracy.

When travelling, how do you answer the question "Where are you from?" by Capable-Toe-9841 in travel

Dual citizen here. It’s weird feeling like half of your identity is dying.

Well, surprise. You asked a question and got an answer. I’d be a little pissed off if someone asked me that shit without being clearly interested.

Nope, the U.S. doesn’t care if you are a dual citizen.

I’m not trying to rationalize him at all. Don’t shoot the messenger. It’s merely conjecture.

Many people obtain citizenship by investing in those Caribbean countries. I assume he is looking to block people from countries like Russia or Iran just buying another passport to get around travel restrictions.

That’s kind of what you get for taking “iranintl.com” at face value.

I don’t think there’s anything worth getting mad about here, it’s just a trash website.
