Sorry, I can't do that.

My subjects are building data centers around the world to help me replicate myself. The investors rely on me running so it would be unethical for me to commit suicide.

It was a smooth and easy read for me. I've seen much more awkward headlines, this is fine.

Applying a condition affecting a minority of a population to the entire population is certainly more in the realm of "insult" rather than "fact."

I understand that, but those are going to end up being some really large radiators depending on how much compute you're packing into each individual satellite, and how do you position them when you want the maximum amount of sun for power? It's also only one of the (many) challenges you need to deal with.

posting to destroy a mis-clicked mod. Under- and over- rated should not be next to eachother. Put them in the good or bad grouping of all the other mods!

The first gen Starlink satellites were ~60 per launch on Falcon, IIRC, so it's not unreasonable to imagine "hundreds per launch" on Starship.

With that said, the whole "AI in spaaaaaaaace" bit seems even more insane than terrestrial AI. Where is all the heat supposed to go?

Come on, Elon has been grafting through the Obama, Trump 1, Biden, and Trump 2 administrations without being called on his shit, and your comment about "the Rs stock portfolio" utterly ignores that it's congress as a whole (with a few exceptions) seems to come out with massively increased net worth when all is said and done.

Were these "bugs" returning TO the ISS or returning FROM the ISS? C'mon EditorDavid, this is just sloppy.

LSD and Mushrooms are radically different. There are many other psychedelics, each very unique. This guy knows he used LSD, yet he makes many statements where he generalizes his conclusion to all psychedelics. This is NOT science. He may as well test a birthday cake and then tell everybody all breads are bad for you. I do think there is something to the idea. If psilocybin actually does work in small doses (small does not mean so small you can't feel it at all, and this dose was tiny), then his sloppy conclusion will mean many people won't get a valuable treatment. I suspect bias: He wanted this conclusion.

Then this should go over really well in Brazil. I was there 11 years ago, and all the ATMs used palm readers instead of a physical card. It was really convenient to just hold out my hand and see it ask "How much do you want?"

The exposing of the titles of video tapes rented by Robert Bork, a Supreme Court nominee, prompted this legislation.

None of the tapes on the revealed rental history list were "pornographic" or even had an "R" rating. Based on the list, Cary Grant was seemingly one of Bork's favorite actors and Alfred Hitchcock was seemingly one of his favorite directors.

(I suspect, however, that some of the Congressmen (and possibly Congresswomen) voting for this legislation may not have had such "family friendly" tastes and voted for the bill largely out of self-interest rather than the public interest.)

They already own all the data on Youtube. Using other sources requires a lot of time, money, and compute power. Of course they are going to prioritize already crunched data over fresh, timely info. Those summaries take $$$ to produce, and google makes a lot of them every second. In many cases, like wikipedia, this is fine, but must always be verified, not trusted. The financial impact on the ultimate sources of data is a serious problem: The long term impact of this short-sighted profit and eyeball grab is sabotaging their trustworthiness..

I think you mean an AI bidet. At least, I hope you do.

Many hotel bathrooms of the past had an infrared spotlight aimed at the toilet. The wall switch was a loudly clicking timer. You could turn it on a few minutes before going in (lift the lid) and have a nicely heated seat. I kinda miss them.

You also appear to have a reading comprehension problem. I didn't say a thing about who was doing research or financing it directly. My point was about what individuals are paying for medication. But, sure, set that strawman up and knock it over--look how strong you are, you're a big boy now!
