The Ryzen 6800 series has power consumption in line with M1 as it's also on the 5nm TSMC process, so the bigger question is: "why is the questioner ignoring AMD?"

Well your video indicates that it is a CCP problem given that the process for reclaiming the stamp is too slow. This is definitively corruption and CCP-involvement. Obviously the CCP has no intention of letting ARM go.

I have donated quite a bit (I think) to Wikipedia, and I will stop doing so. I donated around $50 every year, which according to their website is far more than the average.

I will continue to be grateful to their services, but I am trying to reduce my dependence on the banking system, and an organization that explicitly is trying to do the opposite is someone I cannot support.

From the article:

So if "crypto people" want to force it on "them" and they want to decide what to deal with, it seems to indicate that they don't want my donations, because I am on of the "crypto people". This us vs them must mean that it is the Wikipedia community (which excludes "crypto people") who are supposed to fund Wikipedia.

And she certainly don't want people who are not part of the Wikimedia community to sponsor the organization apparently. But why are they then asking for donations? This "ironic" thing doesn't compute for me.

Maybe there's a cause and effect happening here where the torrentfreak article is the cause and the effect is that you now can find youtube-dl.

What should be researched is how this stifles speech. I would never even comment on this story if I was not anonymous. I'm quite certain that very few people will come out in support of free speech unless they are anonymous.

> Why should all those miners suddenly stop mining? That doesn't follow at all. More likely they'll double down and invest even more in mining hardware. Energy usage for mining + opex for mining hardware can never be higher than the value of new BTC mined. The BTC mined decreases by 20% y/y. Only if the value of bitcoin increases by more than 20% y/y will energy usage increase.

> By design Bitcoin energy use has to keep increasing exponentially. This is not correct. Bitcoin is designed to use 20% less energy y/y. It is only if its value increases by more than 20% y/y as measured in energy (not $), that energy usage will increase.

This story does not match the reality I'm seeing. My cohort has gone from 50/50 wfh to 100% wfh and I don't see it ever going back, still.

Better kill everyone that can't prove they grew up in a non-abusive, non-violent, non-judgemental, or low-educational environment. ..or maybe that's what we're already trying to do?

How would worldwide justice solve anything? There's no indication that everyone being "treated fairly" is possible, even in theory, or that it would keep anyone from wanting to kill others.

If you were an Oligarc, forced by Putin to liquidate your assets into USD to fund the Russian military, then I think it makes sense.

False dichotomy. There is no need for Clearview AI just because there are Russian and Chinese databases.

It's very easy under GDPR. They need explicit consent from whoever publishes the photo for each processing they do. "...and processing by third party" and similar language is not legal. Each processing must be explicitly agreed to.

This is an enormous wealth transfer from northern Europe to the south. The energy requirements per household in the north is 7x that of the south, but luckily there is abundance of clean, cheap, energy in the north.

By upgrading the grid, the energy prices will be aligned in all of EU.

However, if the acceptable energy expenditure, in EUR, for a year in the south is approximately the same as in the north, this will make keeping warm for poor people in the north, basically impossible.

Thus the north will be green-washing the environmentalist initiatives in the south by throwing its own population under the bus.

This winter the energy prices in the north had poorer families keep indoor temperatures down to 5C as energy prices reached >$1/kWh. A house will typically consume 30.000 kWh per year, and with a new normal with energy prices at $0.5/kWh, this means a wealth transfer from the nordics to the south of around $15k per year per household.

This is counterbalanced by higher taxed income for producers in the nordics, more redistribution of tax dollars through the government, less economic efficiency, and more centralization.

This is really an elite project we're seeing. Interesting times ahead!
