So the backlash is basically irrelevant. Even if valve can get some Linux hardware into people's hands the majority of operating system purchases for computer desktop and laptop hardware or for corporations and business and Linux does not have anything approaching active directory.

So they can ignore any complaints. Because realistically the average user can't do anything about it..

Meanwhile AI has the potential to replace hundreds of billions if not trillions of worth of wage labor. Remember AI is not a product for you. It's not even a product for your boss or your boss's boss. It's a product for the 8,000 billionaires on this planet who are sick and tired of the answer to the question "who's going to buy their products"?

Nobody. Nobody's going to buy their products because they're not going to have products. The goal is to dismantle capitalism and replace it with a new kind of feudalism.

Not unless you give it absurd amounts of computer power that is incredibly expensive.

AI is worth the money when you're replacing workers with it. But unless it can cut your headcount the cost of the competing resources exceeds regular computer software.

Right now I see it being used a lot to do reports nobody reads. The kind that used to be done by hand or if somebody's clever with a script. But if you have that kind of job you have it because you are somebody's head count.

I've said this before but conservatives are about to get a taste of all the efficiencies they keep clamoring for and they are not going to like it. The real thing AI is doing is letting every CEO know that there might be stuff in their organization they can automate.

And they're firing a lot of essential staff too. Really doesn't matter how important you are. It took me months to sort out a prescription because the company that makes it fired all their staff and replaced them with nothing.

We have hard evidence for the improvements to grades you get when you have free school lunch and breakfast. But we can't do that because the Christians won't let us. Specifically the evangelicals.

We could give parents actual support in raising their kids but every time anyone suggests that it gets shut down. Always by the think of the children crowd too.

Doesn't matter if you have the potential to be a useful genius if your parents are both working three jobs leaving you with a television set and no books and your classroom has 45 students in it 10 of which in the back have to stand because there aren't enough chairs and you had sleep for dinner last night and nothing for breakfast.

For about 30% of the country cruelty is the point and for the other 70% we're too busy fighting back against the damage done by that 30%.

This is some absolute drivel of an article.

The problem isn't that we aren't penalizing children enough. Anyone making that claim is just using cruelty for cruelty sake.

When my kid was in high school they had 45 kids in their class and 10 of them had to stand in the back.

We know exactly why kids are struggling. We are actively sabotaging public education in the hopes of privatizing it for profit and so they handful of religious extremists can indoctrinate children in private schools and a handful of racists are hoping they can sneak segregation back in using private schools.

On top of that we still have some leftovers from covid and the chaos caused from that time.

Oh and of course we don't feed hungry children because... I don't give a fuck what you're at reason is if you don't feed hungry children you're a fucking son of a bitch and you're going to hell. Repent already.

Everybody's about America first until it's time to actually put up some money and stop sucking billionaire cock. Honestly it's pretty fucking obvious that America first is just a code word for I don't want to look at brown people when I go to McDonald's. Because I have never once seen a person talk about America first and support free school lunches or probably funding public education or giving healthcare to disadvantaged children.

If anything they seem to get off on the suffering. Like that bitch Teresa used to.

Thanks, that's informative. If I had mod points they would be yours.

"States rights!"

"No, not like that!"

This is the internet. I figured that since they tried to censor it, someone would have made copies.

Specifically, this effort: https://www.space.com/37506-qu...

I can't see what the difference is, other than that these guys managed to do it over a 10m long optical fibre, and the Chinese scientists did it from Earth to a satellite in orbit.

Maybe. I'm not sure what they are supposed to show. Some titles would be helpful.

Couldn't find a link to these videos anywhere in TFA. Anyone got them?

My understanding is that their dodgy software notices things like "abnormal" eye movements and accuses the student of cheating.

China is like the EU - perpetually on the verge of collapse, if you believe the "experts".

They do this not to hide bad numbers, to be prevent the kind of thing you see happening on Wall Street all the time. They don't want a huge speculative gambling market, they don't want people betting against their economy, and they don't want people making short term decisions based on quarterly data.

If the $ sign didn't give you away, the assumption that the law works like that did. The UK is not the US, the law doesn't allow you to get around the wording like that. Courts generally interpret the intention of the law, and look for ways for it to practically implement that intention.

Such obvious fraud would be, well, fraud.
