Good news again: In Germany facts aren't slander or libel either.
If an insult intended to cause someone to lose status is factual, is it then legal? If so, that helps somewhat but doesn't address the base issue of freedom of speech, especially since it depends on an impartial judiciary.
Calling someone an asshole, is insult.
Does not matter if one thinks he has a point of truth in it.
You're right. It does not matter. Whether someone thinks it is true is of no consequence, if you are not free to insult others then you do not have free speech.
I can easily see the AI bubble crashing.
But I do not expect the 'excess compute supply' to be a problem. That is very likely to be the main asset that people buy up. The price will drop for it as compared to now, but not by much.
Memory prices however I expect to crater. Once that compute supply is shifted away from making AI slop to more productive uses, we will have a glut of memory chips combined with excess production.
The main fall will be the idiots that 'invested' in AI companies. The AI founders will still come away in the 1%, but most of that money will have been striped away from the investors.
Nobody makes better hardware for this than Nvidia. Nobody makes better software architecture for it either. Their graphics drivers keep getting worse, but the percentage of their income which comes from graphics keeps falling so that makes sense. It is quite unfortunate for those of us depending on them, of course, but makes all the sense in the world right now.
Hint: it's not a dollar amount
So while you're certainly free to continue being selfish and ignorant, and my guess is that you'll make that choice, you might want to pause for just a moment and consider that your approach inevitably results in the deaths of billions of people -- including yours, your family's, your friend's, etc. -- and that maybe it might be a better idea to consider the merits of embracing science and cooperation. There's no other way, sadly, because all of the things that could have been "other ways" are no longer viable options.
The people who think and act like they own 'us', the regular people, don't care how we act. They are going to do whatever it is they are going to without any regard to input from the rest of us. Go ahead and act selfish. It will not make a difference. Go ahead and try to conserve what we still have. It will not make any difference. The industries need to change, not the people. The people will go wherever they are led.
And as long as these people are around, nobody will mistake the US for a reliable partner
Nonsense. 1/3 of ANY population can be manipulated with propaganda to get whatever result is desired. The USA is not unique in this regard. This has nothing to do with the general population, rather, it has to do with intentional bad actors that have entirely subverted American Democracy. Laugh all you want, it has happened to other countries previously, with Germany being quite notable.
but ultimately the software feature is a good thing.
WTF is wrong with you?
This wouldn't be so difficult to deal with if security patches were not intermingled with new feature patches. WTF?
Yes, keep doubling down on the ignorance. That will work...
That's exactly what you're doing when you claim insulting people is not free speech. Just in case you haven't read the thread you're "contributing" to, that is exactly what you are doing. If you don't understand why insults can be free speech, then you must be still be mad that people said mean things about Hitler.
Right, so if a crack dealer offers a free sample of their range of products to a kid, we shouldn't support the kid, just positively support them?
You have a really low opinion of kids. I feel sorry for your kids. My kids were educated about the dangers. They knew they could talk to me and get straight answers, so any weird situations they found themselves in, they declined until they could speak with me. My children are now fully functional adults. I am betting yours are crippled by the lies you fed them.
You protect your kids by teaching them to protect themselves. YOU do not protect them, they protect themselves. Kids will not be kids forever, so taking learning experiences away from them by sheltering them is ill-advisable.
This isn't going to affect you at all. Statistically nobody not working on KVM cares about this. It's almost exclusively just going to make KVM development easier. There is no reason why this should have hit the front page.
You are completely mistaken. The posting you answered to is exactly how this works.
I wasn't arguing about the procedure, so no, I am not mistaken in any way.
Yeah, came to say something like this. This is offensive at best. 50k is poors money in NY or CA or frankly any of the developed parts of literally any other state.
How does this even make sense from a cost/benefit perspective?
Compliance fines and civil asset forfeiture. Charge the old people on a fixed income who cannot afford to repaint their house fines which they can't pay, which you roll into property taxes which they now cannot pay, which you use as pretext to steal their home.
To me, there's ethics and economics...this violates objective economic sense
No, you just don't understand it.
and probably the ethics standards of about 95% of the population.
The vast majority does not even look into candidates' positions on CAF. They literally do not care if anyone is stealing old people's homes.
