Court: Congratulations. The merger has been blocked. Elon Musk: Great. I will be purchasing it.

Just trying to keep people safe. Nothing to do with lock-in, rent seeking, control over everything you watch, or mass surveillance. Not about any of that AT ALL!

Hang on, let me Google it...

Iâ(TM)m not so sure. I have a strong feeling that the oh no, your AI is TOO POWERFUL! stuff is largely bullshit that helps build hype and supports grift. I know AI tools have gotten better but Iâ(TM)m enmeshed in this shit every day and mostly all we keep doing is fixing shit AI results. I have developers whose primary job is now taking AI designed and generated proof-of-concepts (proofs-of-concept?) and fixing (or, rewriting) almost everything about the architecture and code to get it operationalized and scalable. But who knowsâ¦maybe this NEXT version will be the one that solves all our problems. /s

Imagine a beowulf cluster...

Or...I posted from a stupid device that replaced the standard ASCII 0x22 quote character with UTF U+201C & U+201D quote characters and replaced standard apostrophes with U+2019 "right single quotation mark" characters. It's what I get for trying for Frosty Piss and posting from my phone instead of waiting until I was at a computer that doesn't do that stupid shit.

Also, it sure would be nice if /. would let a user EDIT a fucking comment after the fact.

Okay, seriouslyâ¦âoh no! See how amazing our AI is?! China is trying to get you! Theyâ(TM)re coming for us because our AI is THE BEST!â

This guy needs to fuck right off. Everybody hates all this AI bullshit and nobody wants giant GPU farms sucking up all the water and electricity in their neighborhood. Fuck China too. Itâ(TM)s entirely possible for people to hate AI without Chinese propaganda.

"I remember having to pay "long distance" to call the next county" I, too, remember the aughts. I remember getting stuck with a whopping $300 something phone bill back in 2002 because I didn't realize the number I was using for my dial-up provider was long distance even though it was the same area code and only required dialing 7 digits. 2003 was a great year when my home finally got DSL.

So...noscript then.

Why are we going back to CDs and Vinyl when we have a physical audio format that blows them all away? High Fidelity Pure Audio, occasionally abbreviated as HFPA or BD-A is an audio-only Blu-ray optical disc. It has been around since 2013. HFPA is encoded as 24-bit/96 kHz or 24-bit/192 kHz linear PCM ("high-resolution audio"), optionally losslessly compressed with Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio. (Wikipedia). Chances are you already have the ability to play this as it works on any standard Blu-Ray player unlike DVD-Audio and SACD which preceded it.

Naturally, a guy who wants to extract monopoly rents to grow his vast hoard of capital believes the masses need to stop owning anything and rent everything. Duh.

I would argue that if you get married quickly after your spouse dies then it is a sign you had a very good marriage. I know people who've told me that once their spouse dies, they are never getting married again because they don't want to ever get trapped again.

imagine how many more thousands they could save by replacing 200k in toy computers with a real datacenter platform.
