I guess if they actually started making medium format sized sensors (ie the size of MF film) or larger then it might work...but those would be insanely expensive.
The new stuff they're releasing for motion pictures without the old remjet backing that had to be "washed off" before processing sounds exciting....and would make life easier for those developing at home with either C41 or ECN-2.
Hell, really make me happy and start selling a version of the Vision3 films in 120 medium format and PLEASE TAKE MY MONEY.
Glassification works for the majority of the waste, and if a glass block "breaks open" nothing spills out.
Glassification is viable in every way but financially. It's incompatible with capitalism.
"The company will also create a program in the next major Android release allowing alternative app stores to register and become what Google calls first-class citizens."
They did this already in Android 12. Third party app stores could even do automated background updates. Did they undo it?
And my point is that AI wouldn't just stop being used even if the bubble imploded so heavily that all of the major AI providers of today went under. It's just too easy to run today. The average person who wants something free would on average use a worse-quality model, but they're not going to just stop using models. And inference costs for higher-end models would crash if the big AI companies were no longer monopolozing the giant datacentres (which will not simply vanish just because their owners lose their shirts; power is only about a third the cost of a datacentre, and it gets even cheaper if you idle datacentres during their local electricity peak-demand times).
A quick and non-technical explanation of that, is summarized by the amount of drool pooling in your audience while you give a "non-technical" explanation.
You think there was a time when most people understood entropy? Or the mathematics needed to understand it? How quaint.
If it went almost to the top of the case it must have been a SFF system, because Slot 1 and Slot A processors alike were less than half the height/thickness of a typical ATX case.
let the market decide, instead of being a political decision based on feelings. But that is unrealistic:-(
It's unrealistic because the market doesn't get to decide. Logic doesn't decide on the supply side OR the demand side. On the supply side, the market is controlled by regulations which were put into place because power companies proved they couldn't be trusted to function without them. On the demand side it's limited by physics, power has to get to places before it can be used.
In the USA for example power companies are really only able to profit from new generation projects, so they are motivated to produce the most wastefully expensive projects because when they cost more, they can pocket more of the costs. That means nuclear whether it makes sense or not. And while everyone complains about solar requiring grid improvements, so does nuclear. It represents a large amount of production in one place, so you need a large grid connection to that place. And they are typically not built near other things for obvious reasons, so there's no synergy.
And then of course there's the fact that it's already a requirement to pay the expected decommissioning costs up front, but it's never enough, so The People always wind up paying.
Or you could bury it at the bottom of an oceanic trench, where "given enough centuries" it will be subducted into Earth's mantle.
This has been studied and it's not that simple. First you have to get it there, then you have to ensure it doesn't break open and spread before it gets subducted. I had the same idea, it just turned out to not be a good one.
It's never one thing, it's never one group. It's always a cartel or conspiracy, there are always multiple goals being pursued, usually by individual participants let alone the aggregate of the groups.
This is a serious plan for greenwashing. Brazil is allowing forest to be cut down primarily to benefit foreign investors, which means they could just not be doing that already.
With everything going on with air traffic based issues since Trump started destroying the FAA and all other government agencies
What are you talking about ? If the Dems in the senate...as few as 5 of them would vote to pass the CLEAN Continuing Resolution, the govt would open and things would go to normal.....
This is the same CR that they have all voted on numerous times.....it isn't Trumps fault here, it's the Dems holding the US hostage here...
the ends do not justify the illegal and unconstitutional means.
Exactly what illegal and unconstitutional means do you propose are happening exactly?
Your scenario is impossible, so try again.
Because we're discussing a scenario where the big AI companies have gone out of business, remember? And the question is whether people just stop using the thing that they found useful, or whether they merely switch to whatever alternative still works.
It's like saying that if Amazon went out of business, people would just stop buying things online because "going to a different website is too hard". It's nonsensical.
MAC user's dynamic debugging list evaluator? Never heard of that.
