I was going to wait to see how deeply you inserted your foot in your mouth, but It's Sunday, and I'm bored.

My claim:

The separate problem of AI assets- stable diffusion generated, etc, is even remarkably still growing, in spite of the obvious quality decrease.

The evidence:
Steam AI Disclosure Hits 36% of Games as Rivals Skip

My claim:

Use of LLMs as coding agents in games is near ubiquitous now.

The evidence:
Steam updates AI disclosure form, requiring developers to report visible and in-game AI but not background tools
Nearly 90% of videogame developers use AI agents, Google study shows

Finally, if you, as someone who watches Bellular, have not figured out that he's a fucking moron yet, then I can only conclude that you too are a moron.

Can't speak to all ISPs, but we have directly peered with Netflix for over a decade.
They basically held us at gunpoint, telling our customers that they couldn't have whatever ultra mega fucking HD it was, and that they needed to contact their ISP to get it. It was effective.
We also directly peer with every other major content provider.
In short, I'd say our ability to classify inbound traffic is very, very good. A tiny fraction of my traffic is unclassified.

Not sure how you can come to the conclusion that they're not.

I think anyone who looks around them and says, "the future isn't slop!" is willfully delusional.

This post is very poorly thought out. You have all the information to come to a solid conclusion, but you refuse to do it.

Datacenters in space are indeed a simple matter of cooling, which means ultimately they're a simple matter of dollars per kg to orbit.
You are completely correct that they don't make sense now- because of that 1 single factor.
That factor has changed rapidly in the recent past, and if the Starship poppycock really does end up panning out, then it stands to lower again- dramatically.

It's not all hype. They're preparing for dollars per kg to orbit to fall below the threshold where it makes sense.

Comment Re:Happy cooling and triple redundancy. (Score 1) 102

Cooling in space is merely a function of radiator size, and therefor really, a function of cost per kg to orbit.
Shielding is a very solved problem, and has been for decades.
We have 400Gbps intersat links.
This shit is moving forward precisely because we have crunched the numbers, and they work.

You say you build space electronics for astrophysical research- how do you remain employed when you clearly suck at your job?

A common complaint of mine with any machine running Darwin.
It wasn't bad to program, if you didn't mind working in Objective C... which I fucking detested. Fortunately, it wasn't too hard to build Objective C bridges.

I liked its functionality as an application specific input extension. I have a PC laptop 2 a second screen down near the keyboard (Zenbook Pro Duo) and I like it too.
I think I would have been ok with it as long as the function keys were still there. I can't imagine accidentally hitting the bar if it were above the function keys on my MBP, currently.
Anything that required tapping it like a button... generally sucked though. Your finger reaches for it as if it were a physical key, but it's a flat plate of glass. However, scrolling across it was quite pleasant.
I'd argue a lack of vision is what led to it being used for piss-poor purposes.

Because you're part of a minority.
For my part, I thought it was awesome- except that it replaced the function keys, and in that capacity, it was flatly inferior.
I'm typing this on a 16" M4 MBP, and there's plenty of room above the physical function keys for that touchbar.
Realistically- they wanted to replace the physical keys, because someone got the hairbrained idea that it was an evolution in computing.
The majority felt they were wrong.

Who are you and what have you done with rsilvergun?

Like how the biggest gains in the civil Rights movement happened in the 60s and 70s

Broaden your scope: Both the America revolution and the US civil war were consequences of prosperity. Subsisting people spend little time pondering pamphlets or worrying about ratios of atmospheric trace gasses. The Left and its simple minded and reactionary hair-shirt solutions to all problems are certainly their own worst enemy. That's a key point as well: the enemies they imagine, including all the churches and all the fictional Nazis that live in side their heads are nothing by comparison.

more dangerous than the military kind

Of course you believe this. You have no concept of actual warfare. Your whole worldview is what you've been fed by comfortable, secure establishment media that hasn't dealt with an actual military threat in about 80 years.

No son, job loss and "disinformation" are not worse than kinetic warfare. You're a poster boy for the consequences of excessive peace.

Taiwan is a useful boogeyman

Taiwan is a island of people that don't want to be enslaved by a totalitarian hell state, and China will not hesitate to nab Taiwan at the very first instant they think they can pull it off. All your 8-D chess thinking is just you filling your head with shit. Stop doing that to yourself.

The only reason Taiwan hasn't been blockaded and starved into submission is that China lacks the 2-3 additional aircraft carriers and naval air wings they'll need to ensure the success of that mission. That's it. No other reason. And you're likely to live long enough to witness the truth of that.

When that day comes, do yourself a huge favor: recall this discussion and take it to heart. If you do, the good news for you is that perhaps you'll be able to salvage some of your remaining years free of the cognitive damage you've indulged.

I doubt that. This isn't the nifty fifties and we don't moral panic over blowjobs anymore. Clinton was poking girls with cigars in the Whitehouse and the Bezos beams dick pics around to women. Jenson could handwave this, and she can't "Me Too" him because she's a spy that did it for her government.
