It also worked because most other advanced economies had just been bombed into the ground twice over leaving the US with a huge advantage that made prosperity easy, those conditions simply don’t exist anymore.

idk some of the ships are literally just single concept art images and have been for years, kinda hard to imagine that can possibly be in good faith.

I really find I can’t cheat on an ongoing save even when I think most people would consider it completely justified, an example being when the medusa enemy was first added to terraria it was pretty buggy and could turn you to stone from off screen and through walls (despite explicit patch notes saying it should not do this) so I ended up losing all my gear to an objective bug. Tried save editing it back in but it still ruined the feeling of the save to me.

The only time I can cheat and not ruin my own fun is for testing purposes in games without any kind of creative mode, particularly 4X games which tend to be pretty long and I don’t want to play a several hour game just to test a random theory about how 2 mechanics might interact in a lategame build.

It’ll make a wonderful artificial reef, so kind of russia to begin its reperations by helping to bolster Ukraines future fishing industry.

Don’t forget each worker also has to simultaniously spend $∞ on goods and services.

Well the Russia report described russian money as not just accepted but ‘welcomed with open arms’ in the UK so really this is just russian ship in the waters of the country they purchased.

Even a genuinely perfect model would immediately skew to bias; the moment some statistical fluke gets incorporated into the training data that becomes self re-enforcing and it’ll create and then re-enforce that bias in a feedback loop.

The Unmentionables?

How about faces the same punishment someone that isn’t an incredibly rich corporation would face? If that’s insurance then sure, if thats jail time then yes someoen should be punished just like anyone else would.

At this point that picture should be multiple layers of precariously stacked tiny pillars making up the entire base.

I think you mean episode 2 expansion 1.

Strongman bullshit of course? The reason we stopped testing these things in the first place is because the US and USSR both realised at pretty much the same time after the first couple of hydrogen bomb tests that you can basically nest stages indefinetaly for exponentially higher yields. The escalating tests had to stop for the sake of not fucking everything by setting off devices in the hundreds of megaton to gigaton range. (Also larger devices get less efficient surface coverage than just using multiple smaller bombs.)

But batteries consistently improve year on year, we just keep increasing the demand of our devices in lockstep because 10% more powerful! markets much better than 10% more battery life.

Yeh but now its open season, every fuckwit with a gun and a couple of friends can start hunting people down without even needing to pretend to be ICE and even get paid for it.

I have still yet to own a computer (across about 4 entierly different PCs) that the steam port of GTA 4 runs on, and now afaik it doesn’t run at all due to a licensing thing.

This… this is going to devolve into armed gangs dragging random brown people off the street and turning them in for bounties (and then they get deported) without anyone at any point actually signing off on anything or checking if their a citizen or not isn’t it…

Nothing smoking gun but iirc the difference between voting intention and actual results is historically high and also concentrated around key districts in swing states. So either its an un-precidented level of co-ordinated tactical voting or someone fudged the numbers.

Oh I mean with setup, like I can download ollama and a basic model fine enough and get a generic chat bot. But if I want something that can scan through PDFs with direct citation (like the Nvidia LLM) or play a character then suddenly its all git repositiories and cringey youtube tutorials.

I’ve been looking into local models lately, mostly out of vague paranoia that I should get one up and running before it becomes defacto illegal for normal people to own due to some kind of regulatory capture. Seems fairly doable at the moment though not particularly user friendly.

But is he actually particularly stand out at that or is he just leveraging his pre-existing family wealth and connections to do so? In another universe a lot of these people are deadend used car salesman types that no one takes seriously.
