You used to be able to turn off the AI crap by swearing in your search query. It looks like they fixed that one.

He's both.

He is an extremely low information person which has turned disengagement into an art form. And he still chooses to provably lie every chance he gets.

Do you think anything has improved since 2018 or 2023?

Have you bothered to look around lately?

One-way rocket to Callisto might be far enough.

Because they can change the spacecraft's attitude to put whatever they want into the window while flying along the same trajectory?

Guess what, they probably could have taken a picture of the full sun too. Amazing what you can do when you are somewhere in the 360,000 kilometers between Earth and Luna.

It's a Boeing spacecraft, so yes I absolutely believe they'd go with a broken toilet.

If that's the only thing broken, it's the best one they ever manufactured.

Only hateful individual I'm seeing here is you, using the same stupid hateful dipshittery twice now.

You have no idea what the selection criteria was, and how it was applied. The NASA Director of manned flight operations knows, and that's who ultimately selects the crew.

You, and everyone else in this thread, is speaking out of ignorance and stupidity.

Now only if there was some way that they could bring enough water for the multi-month trip to Mars, and have that water also be used for secondary purposes like radiation shielding...

These are engineering problems. Engineers haven't started working on them outside of "well how about..." because we don't have any funding for manned Mars spacefilght, just the same as nobody was working on lunar landers until there was a manned spaceflight mission to put people on the moon.

If you already have a space station in Earth orbit, why do you need one in Lunar orbit too?

Why would you not seek to do your interplanetary burn direct from Earth orbit, like we have done with literally every single thing we've ever sent to Mars?

Not being snarky, just wondering if there is some delta-V advantage to being higher up the well, but in a different (lesser) well.

Yes, because it's never a good idea to solve issues like this early on incrementally more difficult missions. I want them figuring out the fucking space toilet right in the middle of landing on the surface myself.

What an absolutely stupid thing to say on a tech site where I would bet the vast majority of readers practice incremental development every single day.

How did early agrarian society ever survive without an AI telling your cows when to move to a different patch of grass to munch on?

As my father is a dairyman, this seems like a really expensive and stupid solution to a question that nobody ever asked in 5000+ years.

The cow already knows when to move to different pasture, because the grass is fucking short where they are.

VM workloads. Specifically, I've decided I'm done letting Microsoft destroy my windows install that I need for things, so I have virtualized it and am passing through the GPU, audio device, and a USB hub into the VM using virtualized IO.

They release some hum-dinger of a patch that screws Windows up, and I restore my automatic snapshot and block the patch from installing.

There's extra memory overhead of running Debian and the IOMMU setup. And Windows is a fucking hog. And I use a second GPU on a display that stays with the Debian "bare metal" install.

I have to reboot the Windows VM at least once a week because it memory leaks itself into oblivion and won't wake up until I use the hypervisor to reset the VM.

I would assume, that the fines are on top of all damage compensation these crooks will have to pay. I am also a bit unsure, whether the crooks will have the funds to both reimburse their victims and pay the fines, especially now, when they rightfully face decades of FPMITA prison. Not sure, whether raising the fines would have any effect on the actual outcome.

I am fully aware, that very few years from now we'll be laughing at the models we use today, just as we laugh at the hallucinating mess we admired so much two years ago. GPUs will improve, CPU memory bandwidth will go way up, we'll have Raspberry Pi like systems which can do quality inference. I look forward to using each and every one of them.

However: some people want to run lobsters today, and they are mostly left out to dry for now. These folks paid a few dozen dollars per month to perform mundane tasks like creating optimized grocery shopping lists or scheduling appointments, and now their operators are about to discover the true cost of these toys. Few of these operators can afford the quoted "US$ 1000-5000 daily".
