Probably, yes. There was a paper on this, just a week ago: using it to identify people

Typically, when charging at home, you do not have an empty battery when starting charging. I.e., for short daily commute even 6,5kWh is enough. On longer trips one can charge along the highway with more powerful chargers.

I'll just leave this chart here for you to study: El Nino trend

Yes, and this is exactly what this is about. As with paying companies to NOT build offshore wind farms to create cheap electricity, the Orange is also trying to limit solar electricity, so that his friends in the Oil & Gas industry would profit more. https://hardware.slashdot.org/...

In the TFS, there was a clear eplanation for the change in just 30 days: "Statcounter's June figures included an "Unknown" category that accounted for 9.24% of North American desktop usage. Its reduction seems to have coincided with Linux's rise, possibly indicating better identification of previously unclassified traffic..."

Actually, I'm starting to think that this "gweihir" is actually somebody's bot tasked to argue against LLMs. Bot running one of the cheaper models, as his (its?) arguments on oftentimes quite lacking in thought and argumentation...

It is funny how you have had to move the goalposts all the time in your trolling against AI. At least you are now admitting that LLMs are useful, which was hard for you earlier.

Stans are not part of the Europe, but for the other countries, money transfers with IBAN should work just fine across borders. The system covers 89 countries, as of now.

How would they identify the recipient based on the name alone? There must be multiple John Does (or whichever name you come up with) in the US? The way this is done in the rest of the world is that you use the recipients bank account number directly. And with IBAN as the standard, it can be applied worldwide, across any and all financial institutions, so I do not understand what is this other "electronic info" that you are referring to.

Oh wait, the U.S. is not one of the 89 developed countries using this system....

Newsflash. He/she may not be from the same country as you. The situation described in the post IS the reality in most of the developed countries.

Read e.g. about Finland here: https://www.expat-finland.com/...
"Top Tip: Forget about using cheques / checks in Finland! Checks have not been in use for over 25 years."

Memory crypto stripped - does this spell doom to other Cryptos as well? Trumpcoin, Bitcoin, everything crashing ?

JK. Actually happy that someone is still using "crypto" to refer to cryptography

What strikes me odd and surprising is that LLMs actually seem to use written language as an "inner voice" for their thinking. As they do not have that internal ability for thiking processes (as you described) they need to output their "thoughts" and continue reasoning from there. When using Agentic AI for development, this pattern is clear, especially when the AI is trying to debug an error.

Unless, of course, they work for the military and are convinced that they need their AI to combat against 's AI capabilities. We already have that on drone level, and it will expand further.

And to put it more generally, a single research might think that their actions will not matter that much. Someone else will do it anyway. In a not so dissimilar way how we, on a personal level, avoid combating climate change, as "it wouldn't make a difference anyway".

Yes, Linus also has US citizenship, but I believe it is just for helping with practical matters (and to not be considered an immigrant to be deported), as he is living over there. But he still has Finnish citizenship as well, and also identifies himself that way as well, as evidenced e.g. here

Why is everybody only focusing on California? They have at least some sense in their legislation, so they are fine. What everybody should be screaming now about is the rest of the country - 49 states, where GM surely followed the same practice but does not receive even a slap on the wrist.
