Although the number of people in the room is significantly less the the US House of Representatives, the total amount of lying, thieving, grift and graft on display rivals the worst that comes out of the US legislature. If bad intentions had mass it could be big enough to collapse into a black hole.

As of May 12 2026 Microsoft's market capitalization is just over 3 trillion USD. The World Bank estimate for Kenya's GNI (Gross National Income) in 2024 was 123 billion USD.

The value of the data center alone is about 0.81% of the GNI of the entire country. The value of the data center is about 0.033% of the value of Microsoft, so the ratio of Microsoft/Kenya relative value is 2454. Note this is not a percentage, but the approximate ratio of net worth. As a percentage it's 0.04% USD of Kenya per 1 USD of Microsoft.

This is how colonialism is manifest in the 21st century.

Is there any way they can both loose?

No, they'll be promoted. The ability to lie with a straight face is a highly sought after business skill.

Was it outsourced to non-US contractors? Truth Social was made in Mexico.

We already know that Trump fucked 13 year old girls. He was convicted of non-consensual sexual penetration of a woman by a jury. The DOJ is breaking the law by withholding the Epstein files.

Are you sure it wasn't after a Trump/Epstein style orgy of fucking 13 year old girls, or RFK Jr.'s decades long heroin binge?

Or to be more contemporary, Kash Patel or Hegseth's alcoholic impaired on the job performance occurring right now as I type this?

There are definitely instance of AI memorizing images/paintings and having full recall. So that is a copyright problem.

Nothing. $103/hr for a superhuman employee or $10.30/hr for a superhuman employee.

If it's boosting employee efficiency by 50% as claimed in another Slashdot story above then assuming your Sr. Engineer makes $250,000 a year / 48 weeks / 8hr days = $650/day. + 50% for AI means you're getting an extra $325/day in work from the employee.

They could run 10x costs for 3 hours a day and break-even. But the average is currently way less than 3hr/day. Claude claims the average developer consumes $13/day in tokens. So even if we 10x that it's $130/Tokens per day vs $325/day in productivity.

DJI just released an e-bike platform where the firmware lets you pick what Class of e-bike you want it to be in the menu. And that takes like 2 seconds to change. So, you're supposed to put a sticker on it labeling what class you picked, but then you also are supposed to be able to use unlimited power on private property and then go into the menu and de-tune it to ride on the road.

And that ladies and gentlemen is from someone whose username is "Stabiesoft".

No AI in Fight Club. Humans only.

The practical application IMO is a glorified cubicle. I just want to be able to put on a headset, and have a wireless keyboard and mouse with a 32" 4k monitor anywhere I need to go.

Laptop screens are way too constrictive and the ergonomics are atrocious. But we're still a long way off from 32" 4k display equivalent VR.

No, we don't actually need housing. It's a stinking lie that is perpetuated by Democrats.

We have 1.1 units of housing per family right now. And we're near the absolute record on per-capita housing. Don't believe me?

What we need are _jobs_ that are not concentrated in the Misery Centrals (aka downtowns of select large cities).
