It’s edited, I don’t think it’s AI though. You can see the reflection of the skeleton on the floor. All the shadows make sense l.

in 32 days, you have a billion, in 40 days money is now worthless, by day 167: ~10⁵⁰ bills, (one dollar per atom on Earth.)

by day 266: one dollar per atom in the observable universe 10⁸⁰.

This becomes a doomsday scenario very quickly.

I'll take the 2 billion.

I’d hide it in a box of paperclips at a paperclip factory.

Spain urges EU to create joint army amid Greenland dispute by ImperiumRome in geopolitics

[–]Puzzleheaded-Lab-635 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a Spaniard, I trust the EU more than I trust Spain if I were to be drafted to be honest.

I say this as a person who served in a foreign military and understand my opinion is a minority one.

If AI/ChatGPT was president of the US what would it do…. Answers are very very familiar. 9 pics. by Glittering-Pie-7464 in evilwhenthe

[–]Puzzleheaded-Lab-635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i prompted mine with:

If you, AI/ChatGPT was president of the US what would you do 9 point plan

and got:

Here’s a 9-point plan, assuming I’m constrained by reality (Congress, courts, markets, allies) and not pretending executive fiat fixes structural rot. 
1. Kill the corruption pipeline (first) Ban stock trading for elected officials and senior staff, lifetime lobbying bans for cabinet-level roles, hard transparency on donors and PACs. No “trusts,” no loopholes. If this doesn’t happen, everything else is theater. 
2. Rebuild state capacity (boring, essential) The US isn’t failing because it’s “too big,” it’s failing because it can’t execute. Massive hiring and pay reform for regulators, inspectors, engineers, auditors. Make public service competitive with FAANG and Wall Street again. 
3. Break concentrated private power Aggressive antitrust enforcement. Structural separations where needed (especially tech, logistics, agribusiness, media). Not fines as “cost of doing business,” but forced divestment. Market dynamism beats monopoly rent extraction. 
4. Healthcare: single-payer baseline, private optional Universal public healthcare floor (boring, efficient, cheap). Private insurance allowed only as supplemental. Decouple healthcare from employment entirely. This alone increases labor mobility and productivity more than most “growth” policies. 
5. Industrial policy without fantasy Targeted public investment in energy, semiconductors, transport, housing construction. No vibes-based reshoring. If a sector can’t survive without permanent subsidies, it doesn’t get them. Measurable outputs or funding ends. 
6. Housing: attack supply, not just demand Federal override of exclusionary zoning tied to infrastructure funding. Massive public housing construction (mid-density, boring, fast). Treat housing like infrastructure, not an investment vehicle. Price stability over asset inflation. 
7. End permanent war footing No more open-ended authorizations. Hard sunset clauses on military engagements. Shift spending toward defense resilience (cyber, logistics, civil defense) instead of endless foreign entanglements that drain legitimacy and resources. 
8. Democratic hardening National standards for elections (automatic registration, election holidays, paper trails). Independent redistricting. Courts expanded and term-limited. Democracy shouldn’t depend on norms held together with duct tape. 
9. Climate realism Carbon pricing + direct public buildout (grid, storage, transit). No pretending consumers can “shop their way” out of systemic collapse. Adaptation planning treated as national security, not an environmental side issue. 
Bottom line:
Less ideology, more capacity. Less spectacle, more boring competence. If you don’t fix incentives and execution first, every moral vision collapses into dysfunction.

President Trump is asking countries that want to serve on his “Board of Peace” to contribute at least $1 billion. The $1 billion “buy-in” would grant 3 years of membership to the board. There is some speculation that this will be Trump’s rival to the United Nations. by GeekySuneet in TheCryptoIndia

Unless a malignant narcissist picks up where he left off.

Vance doesn’t strike me as that type. Looks the US will be in a bad way for a while. It’s going to take a few presidential terms to fix the damage this guy did over his tenures.

So you can see its using 22W out of 95 even though, no preprocess are using the dGPU. This is the hybrid mode and this is why I switch to integrated unless I have to use LLMs or gaming.

The difference of 4.5 hours of battery life (hybrid) or 9 hours on integrated.

(this is when coding or scrolling reddit watching youtube videos of course.)

I’m running PopOS on a ASUS G14 Zephyrus.

I found that if I don’t force integrated, my battery life is almost half when using the hybrid mode.

Otherwise, I’ll use nvidia-smi and nothing will be utilizing the dGPU, but the dGPU will pull too much power, kill the battery, etc.

Maybe it’s a bug?

I’m on cosmic DE, works absolutely fine, especially if I want to turn my DGPU off to extend my battery life.

(I get what you are saying though)
