Russia and Belarus make sense, but not inviting Iran? There are far worse governments out there than Iran…

You gotta watch out for those Lifeguards with Lugers.

You can safely swim in the pool of an operational reactor, the ocean near Fukushima is perfectly safe.

The proposed legislation:

(ii) A product or component of an “alarm system” as defined in subdivision © of Section 7590.1 of the Business and Professions Code. Code, including a fire protection system, as defined in the California Fire Code.

For the same reason you need a licence in most places to install fire and security systems. If you make a mistake, people can die.

Wow, you simply stated your own experience, and you get almost as many downvotes as upvotes.

Lemmy is quickly becoming as toxic as reddit.

Yea, but not really. The algorithms are available for free, but they don’t do anything useful by themselves. The RNN is built by training the neural net, which uses grading/classification of training data to increase or decrease millions of coefficients of a multi-layer filter. It’s the training data, the classification feedback and the processing power that actually creates the AI.

You’re the one simping for the companies that are making the planet unliveable for future generations for their own profit.

Plenty of evidence for what I claimed, google it yourself if you want:

That’s not how ChatGPT works.

GPT is an LLM that use RNN. An RNN (Recurrent neural network) is not an algorithm.

Oil companies (via “independent film makers”) have been paying influencers to shit on Tesla, ever since Tesla became a viable threat to big oil and legacy auto. Nothing new here.

And Trump lands the quinella, being indicted for a 4th time:

Proposing any sort of restriction on abortion will demonstrably harm people and should be the definitive end of this man’s campaign — but I’m betting it won’t be.

Even under Roe V Wade, there were restrictions on abortion. Very few people would support 39-week abortions.

Italy wouldn’t want to start that conversation - the city of Rome has more Egyptian obelisks than Egypt.

If you have other Apple devices, so you can make use of features like AirPlay, the Apple TV is a no-brainer.

It’s not generating content though - 4 copies of a link is the same content as 1 copy of the link. And because it’s in 4 places, the comment section of each is diluted.

The post office system is socialist, so are functions like public roads, and fire and police services.

I’d argue that having the government provide a service isn’t enough to call something socialist. In “The Wealth of Nations”, Adam Smith said that in a free-market economy, the governments role was to provide defence, law and order, and public works (eg. roads and education). If we’re using Marx’s definitions for communism, then surely we have to use Smith’s definitions for Capitalism.

I dunno, this stuff sounds like what I hear muttered by the meth-heads at the bus stop opposite my office. These guys in their 60s-70s are popping prescribed amphetamines to keep them going, they’ve gotta come down at some point.

You don’t actually need to be aware of it. Because you said you were aware of it, when you clicked Accept on the EULA, and on page 62 of the EULA it said they have the right to disable your printer remotely at any time and for any reason.

Facebook tried this in Australia, but backed down after a week, and now pay a significant amount to news organisations.

Google and Facebook aren’t going to cut themselves out of such a big slice of interaction, they’re just throwing a tantrum and hoping the government caves.

I literally studied this exact nuclear design at University - the Westinghouse AP1000. You can look up the WNISR (World Nuclear Industry Status Report) if you don’t want to take my word for it.

Don’t forget, mining and enriching uranium still has a significant carbon footprint, far higher per tonne than any fossil fuel. Yes, it’s lower over time, but we need to be reducing emissions now, not in 50 years time.
