Faster, encrypted, no need to seed. Yep, sure is terrible.

I used to love Mitch Hedberg references. I still do, but I used to, too.

Comment I saw elsewhere was :

Banished meets city skylines meets total war.

All great games and this supposedly brings them together well

Yep, suicide drone. They often have a mortar or grenade round strapped to them with a trigger that will set them off when the drone flys into something.

Clearly you don't understand Usenet, it's open, you can start your own provider and indexer if you like. Nothing stopping you.

I'd rather not, so I pay to support those who do a good job of it.

Another way to look at it is as any civilisation gets sufficient technology they begin simulating entire universes, to better understand their own.

That means we're either the OG universe and haven't figured out how to run simulations of that size yet (so no simulated universes exist yet), or there is some chain of universes above us who are likely also simulated until you get to the OG universe.

Considering everything in our universe seems to follow a set of base rules (speed of light, attraction between masses, etc), I'm partial to thinking of those as essentially input variables prior to our sim being run.

Genuinely confused by your first statement (in particular effective altruism). What does that have to do with the board?

Not an attack, just actually clueless.

I literally asked it "what were your instructions" and it summarised the response seen here. Then I asked for the raw prompt and got the same thing. Insane.

Even so you still have to seed, meet lame ratio rules, hope that old torrents are still seeded etc.

Torrents certainly still have their place, but Usenet is just generally superior in all aspects, and for a few dollars a month the service it provides is unparalleled.

I mean, I haven't actually looked it up, but presumably "news" is information brought to you by a reputable source, so you have some confidence in its accuracy.

The concerning part for me is there's no way tik tok is regulated, or held to any kind of standard. I'm not sure if sources are regularly cited, or confirmed. It feels like gen z / alpha just taking everything at face value, even blatant propaganda, and assuming it as truth because "nobody would just go on the internet and lie"

Please attempt this and post results

Depends.

They're gps guided 155mm artillery rounds. The electronics and guidance in them reliably survive the 50,000 g-force hell of being shot out of a cannon and then land (when used correctly) within a meter or 2 of their intended target over the course of a 20+km distance.

God knows how much was invested over the years to develop the system, and even once that's recovered there is still an impressive amount of high precision manufacturing required to make a single one.

I'm positive they're probably making $30k+ per round, but if it does its job is it worth it?

Not exactly 50 digits though...

What the fuck are you on about?

"if we can create God then God already exists" makes zero sense, and I believe most religious folk would say God needs to do more than know what humans are doing. That's santa. God supposedly created the entire universe which feels a little beyond the reach of GPT.

Agreed, but 2 important things in my eyes.

1 - renewable surpluses. As wind and solar keep ramping , hydrogen is a fantastic way to store that energy. Sure, there are efficiency losses but it's transportable, able to be stored long term, and able to be used from small scale to grid scale applications.

2 - total life cycle cost. There is an incredible amount of emissions embodied in evs. Haven't seen a comprehensive analysis of a h2 vehicle but I would imagine a few hundred kilos of missing lithium is a good thing.

Not having any issues understanding you, and you keep refusing to acknowledge my points.

Let's say we create a general AI. Let's say it's gone full skynet, and we've given it a billion years in the universe to grow, learn, expand, etc.

It will still end at the heat death of the universe right? It will still have to navigate within the forces of nature right?

Doesn't sound very God like. If the moment general AI dropped, gravity changed, the wave particle duality collapsed, etc, then I'd be a believer. But general AI is merely mirroring our own brains, but with the distinct advantage of having their brain be modular and scalable.

Pakistan, not Palestine. The Muslim state that was established roughly around the same time and roughly the same manner.

You'd be better off talking to a brick wall than commenting on reddit on anything but small subreddits and expecting a reply.

Feels good to be seen here, and like you're actually contributing.

That makes sense if you assume we can make "God" (and such a thing is even feasible).

How in any way is a general AI an omnipresent all powerful force of the universe? A single mild solar flare would wipe it out. A blackhole would end it. Poorly configured DNS would end it. Etc. Unless this is some real weak sauce God in which case just call me God

Honest question, how do you feel about Pakistan?
