I think he means the equivalent of car play.

Helium does a pretty good job of that too.

It’ll be in shadow at midnight, yes, but not necessarily at any other time. Geostationary orbit is at about 7x the radius of the earth.

As such, the period when in will actually be in shadow is only a short period directly behind the planet.

Super heat what in that space? The point is there’s nothing to transfer heat to. All you can do is radiate infra-red light.

It would be 20kW for each rack or two. The types of data centre deal they talk about these days are measured in GW of compute. That’s 50,000x just for 1GW.

A Total Perspective Vortex if you will. Only a true narcissist survives.

Just compare it to his videos from 10 years ago.

There’s no honour amongst them.

Cloud based services in general.

Bubbles don’t burst for rational reasons. They burst because the lie can’t be held together any more.

I’m 90% certain that none of the resources being “bought” by AI actually have been sold, or created yet.

Indeed. The prices skyrocketed because vendors realised they couldn’t get replacement supply in the future. What existed today was all they were going to get.

I’m expecting a glut of supply once those contracts fall through.

Speaking of the auto industry: Is AI a mirage, like the dreams of a working rotary engine?

It is, but I think it’s a different type of mirage. The rotary engine does work, but it brings with it significant downsides. Getting the positives without the negatives is the mirage being chased.

AI appears to do one thing, but actually does another. People see it “creating” new things, but it’s more like it shreds work up and then glues the pieces together making sure it looks consistent. Train it on one work and it can reproduce that work. Train it on two and it will mash the two. Train it on a billion and it will mash the billion. Nothing creative,. No extrapolation. Just interpolation.

People want the AI promise regardless of the downsides. It just doesn’t exist.

Head of a bunch of MI5 reprobates.

Convenience as in “it’s what I’ve always used and I understand it” or are you noticing some awkward aspects?

Great story.

It’s the sort of thing that I would hope could become community maintained once the authors have made some money off it.

That said, as the tires of electric vehicles tend to wear faster due to their heavier weight…

This gets repeated again and again, but hasn’t been my personal experience. I’d say my tyres are easily lasting twice as long than my previous diesel car.

That’s too late.

Once they do it, they won’t reverse their path. They have to know they’re losing people now, before they commit. You can always start again after they change their mind.

So those are associated with Motorola Solutions now, or did the debt move to Lenovo?

Thats true but ID companies are not lobbying or making changes on a scale that matters. This change isnt going through because an id company lobbied the government.

This statement is what I’m disagreeing with. It just wrong.

These changes are going through because Palantir lobbied the government, or more specifically Peter Thiel. They have 34ish contracts with the government right now across MoD and NHS. One of the ID verification companies (Persona) is also his. This information drives the technologies he sells to the MoD for tracking individuals. Technology currently being used by ICE and in Gaza.

You’re right, it’s not about discord. It’s about making databases of all living people on earth and how they interact with each other.

There’s a number of MPs that have grave concerns about this relationship as well. https://youtu.be/cvDF7Z18Anc

Yes. It’s got immense influence in government policy.

I think I found Discord much more confusing than matrix, personally.

That said. Discord no longer exists for me. Account deleted today. Nothing of value was lost.
