  • The AI hype

    Jump

  • You have to tax something that they are doing that an individual is not. If you tax "all compute" then they're just gonna pull the same shit they do with straws and blame the individual.

    You have to tax the action that is replacing a human worker. If a human job is displaced, it gets taxed. Want to AI generate some massive image through prompts? How much would it take a human to complete the job? Take some % of that, and charge it. Play it somewhere along the lines of "Intelligence deserves pay", and since it's artificial intelligence - it doesn't have rights to spend its own pay (or the need to) so put it into a universal income fund.

    We're reaching a post-scarcity society now. We should be making lives easier for everyone.

  • Removing obfuscation in Minecraft Java Edition

  • Imagine legitimately believing Bedrock is "ahead" of java in any way, lol - There are "features" that bedrock has, which are the REASON Java is better. None of the coins bullshit, better and more developed mod scene, none of the desyncing issues where you fall to your death on the server, but it looks like you're standing on a pillar on your local client, etc.

  • In my opinion, every AI "worker", should have to be paid ...maybe half minimum wage, and that wage, goes into a universal income fund to be dispersed to the citizens directly. Adjust "half", for how much pressure needs to be applied to corporations...

    Maybe laws adjusted so the amount of work AI does would be on-par with how much a person could...and then billed as such.

  • It is, but that code is run through a scrambler that makes it more difficult to read for a human, but basically a trivial task for a computer to undo anyways.

    So we're just burning CPU cycles by scrambling it, and then just unscrambling it anyways -- so Microsoft is just saying "why scramble it at all then?"

    This should, in theory, make it easier for people with less experience coding, to read and understand what's going on.

  • the school I go to has bought into AI so hard

  • The AI bubble isn't gonna pop. It'll calm down at some point, but it's working as intended. They're removing peoples jobs and the AI is doing just as good of a job.

    Remember, humans aren't error-proof either. So this argument of "AI is wrong all the time!" doesn't really reach the ears of the people in corporate -- because people are wrong all the fucking time too.

    And unlike people - they don't have to deal with AI posting racist shit outside of work and causing massive problems for the company, etc. People are shit, the way people act are shit. Half of them are not just shit, but actively barbarians working against society.

    Honestly, I trust any random person I run across on the street as far less trustworthy than even the smallest of AIs

  • AI to remove jobs from workers. 1000%. That's what the hype is now. Capitalist see workers as an expense. They're working on getting rid of you any way they can.

  • Moreso than anything, I think many of us already know about Ozempic, and Zepbound, etc -- it's just -- How can we get it? How can we afford it?

    Also thanks. If I had the capability to move to another nation, say, Canada - I would in a heartbeat. But now that my wife is disabled, immigration doesn't seem to be a path I could take.

  • I can't even afford to put food on my table. A hospital just pushed the wrong medicine and gave my wife a heart attack, killing her for 15 minutes. Yet they are denying claims for her recovery care...she lost the use of her left leg from all of it, and she can't walk normally anymore and as a result we're now on a single income instead of two.

    It's more than "a big barrier". It's an impossible feat for many of us.

    I think 90% of people's mental health issues would disappear if we had universal health care...

  • Why are you a car guy/gal?

    Jump

  • I love cars because they're part art and expression, and part joy/relaxation. They're as unique as an individual's personality, and can be customized to suit. Driving on the open road is this synchronized dance of metal and flesh that propels you far faster than nature ever intended (less so if you drive an automatic). It's a testament to human progress. As someone who loves engineering in every specialty, cars blend mechanical, electrical, electronics, robotics, design...every engineering specialty there is, into 1 complete package that utilizes them all. Every inch of a car is meticulously crafted and lovingly sculpted by engineers, and its one of mankind's crowning achievements of modern society. It is singlehandedly the most complex, and most beautiful thing many of us will ever own.

    Racing in and of itself has just as many forms, each pushing the limits of this engineering to new heights, and is a wonderful test bed for people to wring the most out of the world around us.

    And each year, I marvel at the concept cars and the art of cars to come. It just tickles so many of my fancies.

    This doesn't even begin to touch on the wide range that it's given me and others to travel and experience new places.
