It doesn’t help that the US spends an ‘OBSCENE’ amount of money on their military for their own internal workings.
It’s hard for any NATO member to justify more spending of their GDP.
When everyone decides to build 2/tanks per cycle… and yet one entity is just pissing out 20/tanks per cycle,
There’s so much oversupply in general, why would anyone else increase their output to 3/tanks?
stretch that out over 50 years, and that’s where we are today.
I don’t understand the issue.
He was a senator so they investigated him.
Now GOP is saying he resigned that seat, so they can’t release the investigation (they shouldn’t be used investigate basic citizens is their arguement)
So… when he’s up for AG, they do a background check right? Release it then as soon as his hearing starts. He’s not a basic citizen then, he’s being checked out for the job.
Release it as soon as he attempts to take any governmental position.
Yup, tolerant of the intolerant doesn’t seem to be working.
Not only the technical problem of blocking ‘anything’ on the internet…
What the hell would be the threshold of ‘social media’?
old bulletin boards or IRC chat could be considered ‘social media’…
what goobers,…
I’m not defending nVidia’s business practices at all.
My point is the ‘AI’ hype isn’t hype.
There’s real value added AI work being done outside of the ChatGPT LLM thing going on.
China and Russia have been putting out some big films lately…
The Wandering Earth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wandering_Earth
Black Out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blackout_(2019_film)
Invasion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_(2020_film) (Poorly named)
It’s not all hype.
nVidia has some SERIOUS R&D in the use of AI for the past 10 years.
But using AI in the graphic space… upscaling, downscaling, faking lighting, faking physics… This is all very useful in making videogames.
Then there was a leap in the way AI Image generation was done with the above hardware. And that opened up a whole new growing field.
It’s just some people took basic language models that have been around for 30 years and scaled them up with their hardware. And it was neat, and surprising some of the stuff a LLM would output. But not reliable.
And then suddenly a lot of layman’s got their hand on the LLM’s and thought it was the 2nd coming of Jesus, and started throwing big money at it… it will be surprise to no one who knows how these AI’s work that that big money isn’t going anywhere.
But those first two, is no hype. It’s a real viable use case for the AI, and money will be made there.
Oh ok. Got it.
Thanks,
Did I say that wrong?
Is it Lemmy and Mastodon?
They are both ‘fediverse’?
I’m on Fedia.io
Which is both Fediverse and Mastodon.
I’ll honestly buy a Toyota, Honda or Hyundai before I ever buy a GM.
The first two are built here in North America and give jobs directly to my friends.
GM and fuck off an die. They’ve turned out turds for 30 years now and don’t deserve to be helped to stay afloat.
The only legacy NA car manufacturer I’d consider is Ford.
But yeah, you’d be a goof to invest in a Tesla vehicle at this point.
I wonder how China feels about Russia being so chummy with North Korea.
Looks like Russia and NK are baiting the West into conflict… Does China really want that?
I thought that was pretty par the course in the US for places like Utah.
2017
At 50 tons and 700 kilowatt-hours, this truck is the biggest EV in the world Each round trip will generate 10kWh of spare electricity for the grid.
I’m pretty sure they’ve been doing this for years in South America already.
4 years of quality Leopards ate my face content…
I see Trump got 74mill votes in 2020 and the same 74mill votes in 2024
But the large swatch of incel’s that voted for Trump aren’t going to be affect by this.
Trudeau should continue. He knows how to handle Trump.
He’s the only one I would trust to tell Trump to go fly a kite,
The same way Chretien did to Bush Jr and his bullshit.
The last thing Canada needs is to follow the US into the whole they’re digging.
It’s USA’s fault Russia annexed Crimea? and now attempting to annex more?
How’s that?
