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.

If you knew anything about proof of work, you'd know the bitcoin protocol self-adjusts difficulty in 2,016 block intervals. Every 2,016 blocks the bitcoin network adjusts difficulty up or down depending on how many blocks were mined in the previous 20,160 minutes. If more than 2,016 blocks were mined, difficulty is raised. If less, difficulty is lowered.

This difficulty adjustment, which occurs every 2 weeks (give or take) keeps the bitcoin mining reward in balance the the electrical cost of mining.

Therefore it's illogical to criticize bitcoin based on the price of electricity, since it will always be self balancing.

Not sure what you're referring to. Let's try it this way.

Imagine you are a manager or a CO and you have an employee who keep spending an enormous amount of time working on the exact thing you hired him for. He gets frustrated when he finds stuff he CAN'T explain, wants to research further, and you just brush him off because you really hired him to NOT find anything.

So...noscript then.

Who owns Reddit?

It's the same people who own everything else including the US government.

"Heads they win, tails we lose" is the planned and inevitable outcome of this and everything else they do.

The only winning move is not to play.

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.

lmao. If stupidity hurt, you'd be in a coma, drinkypoo.

For six years running you have been at the top of the "Biggest Dumbass Poster on Slashdot" award list, the unchallenged victor. Nobody can surpass the idiocy you spew on a daily basis here. You are untouchable.

"How does he do it?" everyone asks in amazement. "It's simple," drinkpoo replies. "I just try to be me, to the maximum extent possible."

Nobody is "mad" at EVs, fag. We just laugh at the dumbasses who buy them. Especially here in "flyover country", where it's 50 miles to go anywhere, or in places like Norway where it's bitterly cold. Only goes to prove what a bunch of useless cucks they are in Norway. I'm guessing Denmark is #2 in EV adoption, given that country's reputation.

The battery technology isn't there yet, and likely won't be any time soon, idiot!
