  • Made in space? Start-up brings factory in orbit one step closer to reality

  • "The work that we're doing now is allowing us to create semiconductors up to 4,000 times purer in space than we can currently make here today," says Josh Western, CEO of Space Forge.

    Interesting. Having something that can only be manufactured in space would be a real motivation to getting off our asses and back up there.

  • Nothing new in this article, it's just rehashing stuff that's already been announced and talked about since last year.

  • Honestly, it's something people do actually do sometimes, now that I think about it. Forgiveness almost operates in that fashion.

    That's a pretty cool analogy

  • Article: I switched to eSIM in 2025, and I am full of regret

  • Can't your phone store multiple esims? I thought that was actually one of the selling points of the stuff.

  • AFAIK, the only 'improvement' is that it takes up less physical space.

  • The carrier can bypass that authentication, so basically the same process as if you had lost your physical sim. Show up at the shop in person with id.

  • This is a problem for somebody reviewing phones, but how much of a problem is it actually for the average user who will change phones once every few years? And will probably be doing so at a phone store where they can support it.

  • The model 'blackmailed' the person because they provided it with a prompt asking it to pretend to blackmail them. Gee, I wonder what they expected.

    Have not heard the one about cancelling active alerts, but I doubt it's any less bullshit. Got a source about it?

  • Reddit to lemmy reposter

  • FYI, there's many bot accounts already reposting stuff. There was an entire instance previously dedicated to it, though I think it shut down at some point. It was not popular, most people blocked the accounts / instances and they just clogged up the feed for newcomers due to the lack of engagement.

  • Japan’s Birth Rate Set to Break Even the Bleakest Forecasts

  • It's hard to say what the actual carrying capacity of earth is, if we were trying to optimise for sustainability and not profit or special interests. Would we be sustainable today, if we were full on renewables and batteries, vat grown meat, no plastic waste, etc? There's so many things that could be done for major impact but aren't, for all we know we aren't even anywhere close to earth's carrying capacity with current or near future tech.

  • There's an explicit flag that can be toggled on every account to mark them as bots. If you're acting in good faith that flag should definitely be toggled.

  • Which is fucked up and does not count as consent imo.

    How much of that is due to it not being a possibility in real life, though?

    In real life you have a continuous line from past me to future me.

    Future you still has to live with the memories and consequences of any decisions they take that affects past them. And if they screw up their past too badly they cease to exist (depending on which multiverse theory we're going with). That's a pretty direct line.

  • population decline is hardly a cliff.

    Population decline in Japan and similar countries is absolutely a cliff right now, hence the article.

    We're still growing.

    That's largely due to said population inertia. The current best estimates of actual worldwide fertility rate has us anywhere from 2.0 to 2.2. There's a possibility we've already dropped below replacement rate worldwide.

    Not sure if 'brought up and debunked by experts' is the best argument out there.

    Unless actual scientific data showing otherwise is brought to a discussion, 'appeal to authority' is NOT a fallacy.
