It’s dictator syndrome. There’s always going to be a subset of the population that, after acquiring the faintest whiff of power or authority, seizes it like a drowning man.
“Your honor, there were armed and masked men impersonating law enforcement and intimidating people at a polling place. I believed it was my patriotic duty to defend my community from what must have been terrorists.”
You need someone to raise an animal and slaughter it for you?
You need someone to build a vehicle to transport yourself?
You needed a factory to build silicon wafers and assemble them into chips so another factory could produce a computer and install software on it that you didn’t write, so you could connect to the internet that someone else made?
Pathetic. Bet you don’t even live in the woods and grow your crops while trying to make solar cells out of sand to provide your own power. Absolutely pitiful that you participate in a society where goods and services are exchanged for money.
Looks like there’s a starlink launch later today, and then a satellite resupply mission, both on Falcon 9s. Which is good because the falcon 9 is an incredibly reliable launch platform that should boost investor confidence.
And then on Thursday they’re gonna blow up another starship.
So we’ll see it tick up today and tomorrow, and then probably plummet again when investors see roughly $1,000,000,000 get turned into literal ash on livestream.
The UK has some bizarrely lenient sentencing for sex crimes. Like months or a couple of years. These chuckle fucks should rot for as long as possible, not only for their crimes but also as a punishment for the damage they’ve done to a generation of boys and young men.
My wife is a Respiratory Therapist. They rolled out AI charting a few months ago and she tried it once. She spent just as much time proof reading the AI notes as it would have taken to write them herself.
The main problems are that medical notes are critical to patient care, and are legal documents that can and will be used in the event of legal action. If you’re using AI to document patient care, you’re opening yourself up to potentially disastrous miscommunication that can very possibly get someone killed or have their life altered. And then if someone does die, now the court can see that you documented things incorrectly and could hold you responsible.
The first time Samsung and micron colluded on dram pricing was in the early 2000s when money was also falling from the sky due to high demand.
The fines they were charged with were a fraction of the profits they gained from price fixing.
It’s almost like having a limited number of manufacturers and a huge demand spike is actually an incentive for price fixing because they can work together to increase profits artificially.
I don’t think you really understand how price fixing and near monopoly markets work. With monopolies and near monopolies, there’s no real downside to colluding on prices, especially in the US where fines are basically guaranteed to be less than profits, and when your company is not headquartered in the US and can’t be forcibly broken apart by the government. If you’re the only company, or one of 3, then you can set whatever price you want. As long as the conspirators agree to pricing, no one will bat an eye at claims of high demand or supply chain issues because all your conspirators also have similarly high pricing.
Usually I say economists are insane cultists. But I really think you could benefit from reading some material on macroeconomics.
You mean the companies that have been tried and convicted in the past of forming a cartel to manipulate DRAM prices, and are now all raising prices through the roof and showing record profits, are not colluding again?
Just because the demand is coming from a different market doesn’t mean the manufacturers aren’t colluding to raise prices and gouge their customers.
The limiting factor for space data centers is absolutely not the cost to build them. The AI industry has already proven that they will burn the GDP of a small country just to have an LLM that shits out slightly better text that has coin flip level odds of being true.
The limiting factor here is one of thermodynamics. A travel mug for coffee works because it has a near vacuum between the inner lining and the outer shell. Vacuums are fantastic insulation because there’s no atoms there to transfer heat away. Very useful if you want hot coffee for a few hours. Space is a big vacuum, and data centers are giant heat generators. You’re basically putting a computer in a perfect insulation medium. It’s really stupid.
Steam just straight up doesn’t work that way. It’s an application launcher, it will happily try to run a game on integrate graphics even if you have a dedicated GPU if you haven’t configured your system properly. This is, in fact, a very common issue.
One of my favorite hobbies and genres of YouTube videos is testing out really old GPUs and CPUs on modern games to see what they do. I’ve had the game tell me it straight up won’t launch because an intel 845 doesn’t have the right graphics API for a modern game, but steam will still let the game try to launch.
Chiv probably doesn’t like your 10 year old integrated graphics because it’s 10 year old integrated graphics and you threw a hissy fit about steam instead of thinking maybe the game was the problem.
He specifically requests to be a bad guy and to lose in the end because of his experience with crime and prison in his youth and wanting to be an example of crime not winning.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you can eat grapefruit while on medication.
Grapefruit delays the breakdown of medication in the body. Most medication require the liver to break down whatever is in the pill into the actual chemical that will effect your body. So what happens is the original chemical in the meds builds up in your body’s and then the grapefruit wears off and your liver goes nuts making active ingredients, leading to an overdose.
Right before markets close for the weekend, he says a deal is close.
This makes investors feel confident and buy oil futures.
He’s been pumping and dumping the oil market for this entire war, and investors are so stupid they keep believing him. I guarantee when the market finally crashes off the end of this rollercoaster, the war will miraculously end.
I wouldn’t call sealing someone’s entire head in Saran Wrap and plastics bags, and then leaving them unattended, “unlucky”
The lady has 3 kids and is an adult. How could she not know plastic bags are a suffocation hazard. Yes breath play is a real thing, and it is known to be inherently risky, which is why any amount of research would tell you to either avoid it entirely or have a quick way to restore airflow, and to never leave your partner unattended while doing this shit.
I’ve done kinky shit. It’s really not that fucking hard to not kill someone. Especially if you’re getting 11 grand for it, I’d expect a little thought and research put into the encounter.
Make em get practice insurance just like doctors and nurses, and I think lawyers are also insured for their jobs.
Most professions where you hold the future of another human in your hands require some kind of insurance, except for police. Yet a cop can mistakenly arrest you, drag your name through the newspapers and the mud, hell even shoot you for no good reason, and then walk away like that didn’t just ruin your life just as badly as a surgeon cutting off the wrong leg, or a nurse overdosing you cause they fucked up the math.
Make cops carry insurance. If they can’t afford the premiums or get dropped for being to risky, well then they can go pound sand.

Why do you like making extra work for yourself? Are you bored?

I’d rather they get their trial in the states.

I would also take a hard pounding if I got 300 billion dollars out of it.
That would be asexual
Isn’t that intentional though?

Yeah, I think they have it pretty figured out. We fucked it up
