that is on the low end. Don't forget the talent you need to train and hire - that is not there today. As well as an environment that makes this thrive - which is also not there. You want to replace companies that have been around for +20 years now, and your just starting. To catch up quick, you will need massive talent and money and laws that support it. Even with AI - Talent and government support are your biggest issues.

lies. It does more harm than good to change the clocks - always has, always will. Stop fucking with our internal clocks you dumbasses. They do have studies proving this - especially when they extended daylight savings time to the new time (Bush Jr?)

You mean so the local ISP's can have a record of all your data and pass it over to the government? Great idea... I would say this could lead to government employee's getting insider info and then using it to buy stocks - but... that's already a thing...

so they are hoping by going in with all of the, that when 80% fail that the 20% will re-coupe the money they lost? I mean dam, that means losses for years though.and it might work.

We need a country to do this - as it will blow up in their faces right away. Like day 1 - ops, 1/2 the internet is now blocked as they cannot "verify your age" or - hacked right away, with all of the people working in the government - having all of their data open for everyone to see. Then they freak, lean that the internet is forever and everyone else goes - no thank you.

so can we not have chemicals in the air... like wow anything to not get off of oil... when we have more cost effective solutions today... great...

SO - fine with the ruling. BUT - you and me are the victims that pay for it... The goods we bought that had extra costs due to this - we are NOT getting it back. That tax revenue that the government gave back - they still need it, but the people will be the ones paying it.So companies are getting a bonus and people are getting screwed... sounds like government to me...

So use more - so we can charge more. If you used less - we would charge less... so don't do that...

Limit - yes, but with the things you give AF about. Like It taken from the grid and not self generated - limit is X - yes, everyone should do this. BUT if self generated, it is fine.Water - same, if they have a pond to fill it / have their own water, all good.

sure everyone "should" but we cannot afford the current high cost. So maybe when the costs come down. Or kiss the butts of a few big AI companies. Just don't place your bets yet on who is going to win. Waaaaaayyyyy too early. But yea, expect to be some big companies bitch until we get our own.

Datacenters have MONEY, they would be fine if you put in a - only if consumers benefit in lower energy bills - buy lowering energy costs, not raising them - our whatever system means people pay less then they do today - from day 1, not day X. Having datacenters pay all the extra costs. Ends the argument real quick.

so getting more money than your land is worth is a bad thing??? We have lots of farmland, so keeping it is not a thing that is needed. Stopping progress because your butthurt is just sad. Would you rather the government just took it for pennies on the dollar? That being option 2.

wtf are you talking about? When many internet things came out - they were overpriced BS and people that were not emprise level could not afford it. Example - networking - you used to pay for the software and hardware AND each node you wanted to connect (users) and it was like 1k - in the f'ing 80's PER user connected (BNC connectoins) We started pirating DAY 1. Back in the dos days. back when games could not stop anyone from coping the disks so you had to have decoders (code wheels and every other type of physical decoder) - I did this before windows 3.1, more like dos 2/3 ish.

I know like 4 people directly that left that job - as it pay's shit. One was living at home - and could not live on the piss poor wages. They all HAD to leave to make more $$. They were even getting OT - not even close to enough.

WELL, either AI takes it, and it's used for training (this would be the best option) OR they make it total garbage and everyone leaves It needs to earn money somehow, just a question of how.
