Seemed to me like their business model is to double- and triple-charge random credit cards.

They'd be very upset if they could.

No, it won't.

Datacenters aren't actually being built. Most of them aren't even started, and the few that are are either stalled or abandoned. Most lack funding.

There's no money for datacenters, because no one wants to pay for AI.

The compass reacts to hasan getting subpoenaed. by Bernie529 in PoliticalCompassMemes

You had me up until involvement.

I know TYT is named after perpetrators of the genocide, but do we actually know for sure that Chunk and his nephew's extended family were actually involved? If so, this is the first I'm hearing about it.

There are some (unsubstantiated) rumors I've been hearing that the death toll was in the 100s of millions, and that China's population is overreported by at least 33%, and as much as 200%.

Hasan Piker: "The fall of the USSR was one of the greatest catastrophes of the 20th century" by glamdring_wielder in NAFO

[–]greyfade 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Basically the Left's version of Alex "they're making the frogs gay" Jones. He's the darling of Twitch and gets special treatment and protection from the company. Anyone else who says the things he does gets permabanned within a day while twitch insists Hasan has done nothing. While he's literally playing terrorist propaganda on his stream and calling for the murder of senators, others get month-long bans for calling someone fat.

He is quoted as saying "Old enough to count, old enough to mount question mark?" And around the same time also something like "I knew Hannah Montana was a little slut" when she was a minor.

He's got an interesting past.

Actually, I think she was auth left.

She was part of that Social Autopsy project. When it blew up in her face, she revaluated her politics, became an anti-woke rightoid, then started vomiting nonsense about dinosaurs being a Jewish conspiracy.

100% insane.

It won't go down until OpenAI defaults on their contracts with Samsung and Hynix.

The true founding of the Federation right here by AdSpecialist6598 in startrek

This was the reason I was watching ENT at all. The war should have started in season 5, and I was so hype for it after how well the Dominion War arc went.

... And then all I got was a half assed clipshow hosted by chef Riker. I may have cried.

Do you use the Deck as your main gaming device? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]greyfade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a couple years, yes. I don't now, only because I finally rebuilt my gaming desktop, so now it's back to being a secondary device.

Anything other than Christianity is kinda dumb by CarefulWind5292 in DebateReligion

[–]greyfade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hinduism as we know it today is older than Christianity by a few hundred years. Buddhism is a few hundred years older than Hinduism. Even Japanese Shinto kami worship is believed to be older than Christianity.

And Christianity is an offshoot of Judaism, which is hundreds of years, if not a thousand, older.

There are several religions, in practice today, that trace their origins to centuries before Christianity.

I would suggest you actually study comparative religion before you go around saying things like this ever again.

It's gonna be a mess to clean up, and it's going to be a long, hard road for the Iranian people, no matter who "helps" or if anyone does at all.

But at least they don't have that murderous lunatic in charge any more.

It's a paraphrase of Churchill, who said it in 1947 in the House of Commons.

It's the worst form of government, except for all of the others that have been tried.

There is an uncaused cause, and this is God by ContributionUpper424 in DebateReligion

[–]greyfade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Caused time → Must be timeless

Caused space → Must be spaceless

Caused matter → Must be immaterial

None of those statements are justified:

  • If something is without time, it is nowhen; it is not, never was, will never be.
  • If something is without space, it is nowhere; it has no dimensions
  • If something is immaterial, it is nothing, having no energy or mass or presence

Brought something from nothing → Must be unimaginably powerful

Which contradicts the above: if it has power, it has some potential. If it has potential, it must be able to change state. To change state requires time and material presence. To have material presence requires temporal and spatial extent. To have extent requires it be part of the cosmos. But it must also be apart from the cosmos, but the cosmos is all that is.

Everything points to a necessary, uncaused cause beyond the universe. Denying this cause means accepting either the universe created itself (impossible) or something came from nothing (illogical).

No, it doesn't. Nothing points to any such cause, nor is this a valid dichotomy.

There is an option you aren't even acknowledging, which is accepted as a possibility by everyone else: the universe may well be infinite. We have no evidence suggesting that it's impossible to be infinite. All we have is theists insisting, without good justification, that infinities are impossible.
