No, they revoked the reward

It’s like DB Cooper!

The issue isn’t how people used their votes. The issue is that 20 million people didn’t show up to vote.

With the math available, every single Democratic voter could have voted 3rd party and Trump would still have won. Third party voters had little to no effect on this election, outside of those who were swaying to say don’t vote at all. 50 to 100 thousand third party votes from each state just don’t make the numbers needed for the E.C. votes.

We needed voters, period. They didn’t show up.

AI does give more reasoning than a forum might, that’s true.

And to the end user who doesn’t know what they’re doing, the end result is the same or the AI one will get them “further”.

I say this because if you’re following forums, chances are you’re following guides, which means you don’t understand what it is you’re doing. Which is fine, I typically don’t either, which is why I have a harder time with Linux.

But realistically, following the guide of Stackoverflow will hit a hiccup and you will be stuck. Following AI, things might not work and need to be troubleshooted, but it will continue answering questions until the two of you put together something that sort of works.

Not because of AI, but because the person kept trying. AI only made it so they didn’t need to understand.

What you don’t realize is that I did write up a response to the other one. Then I got distracted, the app closed, I lost my response and I moved on.

But sure, insult me more. Good discussion.

You know, reasons why are a lot more engaging than just outright dismissal, but whatever I guess.

When the third party candidate admits that their campaign is solely to siphon away votes from Democrats? And the Republican alternative has actively stated Palestine should be wiped out by Israel?

Can’t vote Democrat because support of Israel. That means you also can’t support Republicans, because they support the full extent of the genocide even more. And that means you can’t support (most) 3rd party candidates, because the Green Party is primarily funded by Republican donors and, quote,

"Trump, has embraced Kennedy as an ally, has previously spoken fondly of both Stein and West.

“Cornel West, he’s one of my favorite candidates,” Trump said during a campaign rally in Philadelphia in June. “I like her also, Jill Stein, I like her very much. You know why? She takes 100% from them. He takes 100%.”

So that leaves us with… A candidate who at least is saying a 2 state solution, and one who told Israel to finish the job. Plus you know, all of the American focused policies, such as education.

With this in mind, and with how the events of 2016’s election turned out, you can understand why people are suspicious about 3rd party voting, right?

As opposed to… Supporting Trump, who has told Israel to finish the job? Who has no interest even feigning a possibility of a two state solution? The one who stopped aiding Ukraine in 2019? Who’s supporters have made trans and POC politicians step down because they wouldn’t stop receiving death threats after Trump was elected? Who singlehandedly dismantled the EPA to kill corporate regulations, the CDC resulting in the deaths of millions of Americans, and our education system by planting Betsy DeVoss, whose brother is Eric Prince founder of Blackwater?

I can’t recall any popups when I use G-Suite Apps on Firefox. I use Keep Notes, Docs, Excel.

The main thing I notice is the imposed loading time (Gmail animation takes like 10 seconds on FF and seemingly doesn’t exist on Chrome)

I hate the puzzle piece ones, they never actually load the site for me.

I wonder about this for myself when I post a lot for a few days then don’t post anything for a week then post a lot again for a few days.

Like, I just care about certain things I’m sorry

We’ve had the tech to drastically cut power consumption for a few years now, it’s just about adapting the existing hardware to include the tech.

There’s a company MythicAI which found that using analog computers (ones built specifically to soft through .CKPT models, for example) drastically cuts down energy usage, is consistently 98-99% accurate, simply by taking a digital request call, converting it to an analog signal, the signal is processed then converted back to a digital signal and set to the computer to finish the task.

In my experience, AI is only drawing 350+ watts when it is sifting through the model, it ramps up and ramps down consistently based on when the GPU is utilizing the CUDA cores and VRAM, which are when the program is processing an image or the text response (Stable Diffusion and KoboldAI). Outside of that, you can keep stable diffusion open all day idle and power draw is marginally higher, if it even is.

So according to MythicAI, the groundwork is there. Computers just need an analog computer attachment that remove the workload from the GPU.

The thing is… I’m not sure how popular it will become. 1) these aren’t widely available and you have to order them from the company and get a quote. Who knows if you can only order one. 2) if you do get one, it’s likely not just going to pop into most basic users Windows install running Stable Diffusion, it’s probably expecting server grade hardware (which is where the majority of the power consumption comes from, so good for business but consumer availability would be nice). And, most importantly, 3), NVIDIA has sunk so much money into GPU powered AI. If throwing 1,000 watts at CUDA doesn’t keep making strides, they may try to obfuscate this competition. NVIDIA has a lot of money riding on the AI wave and if word gets out that some other company can cut costs of development both in cost of hardware and cost of running it, and the need for multiple 4090s or whatever is best and you get more efficiency from accuracy per watt.

Oh, and 4) MythicAI is specifically geared towards real time camera AI tracking, so they’re likely an evil surveillance company and also the hardware itself isn’t explicitly geared towards all around AI, but specific models built in mind. It isn’t inherently an issue, it just circles back to point 2) where it’s not just the hardware running it that will be a hassle, but the models themselves too.

Google pays a lot to stay the default browser.

The other search engines mostly use overlapping indexes.

Said search engines are also not anywhere near competition to Google.

Quite frankly, I can only think of 4. DDG, Ecosia, Bing, and Kagi.

Most people don’t know about Ecosia or Kagi. Most people hardly even know about DDG.

I wouldn’t consider YouTube as much of a monopoly because despite it being mostly the only one, from what I understand they haven’t paid out to stay the only one, and don’t really leverage market dominance against others (they probably do but I just don’t hear about it often.) The main reason alternatives don’t exist is simply because of the mass amount of data the YT needs

I’m sure that the reporter’s family member was too.

What a crock of B.S.

TFW Tencent isn’t considered capitalist

I’m from Oakland, she’s done a lot of bad stuff for sure. She has also fought against the death penalty for a cop killer though, so it’s only fair to give her credit.

That said, that was in 2004 and she has done few actions like that since then, moreso supporting the prison industrial complex for sure. I do think calling her Hitler at the moment is too far, she was the first to call for an immediate ceasefire, despite having also said her (Biden-Harris admin) would also give support to Israels military, despite possible disagreements.

Calling for a ceasefire is important. She may be complicit in many ways, but she is one of the few that has expressed dismay for what is happening to Palestine.
