Why are you attributing a concept to a person who merely asked a question about it and referenced it's use in pop media? That student didn't come up with the idea, they didn't add anything to the idea, and they surely weren't the first one to bring the idea to the attention of politicians or oligarchs.
I mean star-link is a thing and while it takes a long time to integrate it into a ships communications system, to provide quality of life internet access for the sailors is incredibly simple.
I have exactly one use for LLMs/AIs at work, but it is very helpful.
There's a 16k+ page standards document related to my job that everyone quotes, but no one has actually read or has a comprehensive understanding. It's quite nice to quickly cross reference or validate information (which you can then trace back to the document source) instead of having 6 engineers in every meeting arguing over the minutia of misremembered standards.
And if you don't believe this you can ask France how their all-out "fission only" plan of past decades is panning out these days.
Wait, what? France has been the largest net exporter of electricity in the EU by a huge margin precisely because of their nuclear program.
Given your user number you are definitely in the at-risk age group.
I must be missing something, is there a new tariff on all imported EVs? Or is this headline referencing the new tariff that's specifically targeted at EVs imported from China and implying that's responsible for a Korean manufacturer dropping EV models with poor sales?
I think we all anticipated a drop in EV sales now that the tax rebates have been removed, I would have expected that to be a small windfall for Hyundai as most (all?) of their models were not eligible for the rebate to begin with, which was likely to drive customers to other brands where they could get more car for their money.
Plus, if it runs out of fuel and it's night/cloudy you can hook the tow strap to your belt loop and walk to a charging station.
No, it's the device. We have known this for at least a decade.
The OECD does the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) every three years in 50+ countries around the world with several hundred thousand students.
One of the metrics they track is technology integration, and they have consistenly shown that regardless of where (1st/3rd world, rich, poor, etc.) the more that technology is integrated into the curriculum the worse their results.
Android phones have supported ipv6 natively since 4.2 (2012). So unless you are rocking the OG droid or a Nexus One your phone probably does support it.
I can't speak to how woefully outdated your work network may be though.
Tell me you don't know what the DMCA is without telling us. The DMCA was created explicitly for this purpose, to allow technology to become a legal way of hamstringing legitimate "free use" of copyrighted material. Instead of arguing the merits of the use itself, they get to claim you illegally circumvented a protection mechanism to obtain the materials. Unfortunately the court's ruling is correct both technically and as to the spirit of the law, so no this ruling does not mean that they need to "learn what computers are".
I remember once upon a time slashdotters would protest the DMCA by posting DeCSS decryption keys, and now they don't even know what the DMCA is or why we protested.
Tips at coffee shops certainly didn't start with COVID. They had tip jars and tip lines on receipts when I was a kid 35 years ago.
Lucas was never more than a "meh" director, but he had the Star Wars trump card. He sold that card. I don't expect anyone to ever give him a real budget to direct a movie again.
GeForce Now predates Stadia by quite a bit, and it was far and away the superior option. I was part of the beta when they allowed full access to your steam library, and it was great. I stopped using it when they allowed publishers to opt out. Every couple of years when a new cloud based gaming setup is released I give it a try, but none of them are as good as GeForce Now was.
The only people who care are people who understand the definitions of words, and those people care because steam is in no way a monopoly. It's not the only place to purchase games, it's not the only place online to purchase games, and it doesn't have access to every game. It isn't the only software to integrate and auto-install a multi-publisher library or to automate downloading and installing updates.
