  • AI could wipe out most white-collar jobs within 12 months, Microsoft AI chief warns

    Jump

  • I see AI as a working animal with a bit of a behavioral problem. It can do some specific things much better than us humans which is why we use them. But you can't trust them without a human handler. And if you leave them on their own for too long they will definitely end up doing something unbelievably stupid.

  • The sun is a deadly laser...

  • A human body will also eventually freeze in space. The same physics apply. It's just not going to happen fast.

  • The sun is a deadly laser...

    Jump

  • Yes it is. But it is the main way by which things cool down in space.

    That's how satellite electronics are cooled down. They have large heat sinks that slowly radiate heat away.

  • You're talking about conduction. I'm talking about radiation.

  • The sun is a deadly laser...

    Jump

  • You constantly radiate heat. The warmer you are, the faster you radiate it away. In space this is the primary way you lose heat.

    In your living room you are constantly bombarded by radiated heat from all the objects that surround you, even if they're just at room temperature, which lessens the effect. In space, not so much.

    Someone who knows better might chime in, but as far as I know the trope of rapidly freezing out in space is exaggerated. You would definitely freeze eventually, but perhaps not as dramatically fast as portrayed in The Guardians of The Galaxy for example.

  • "i am shocked at how many people don't have an actively hostile relationship with advertising"

    Jump

  • I see it as an attempt at manipulation and I do as much as possible to get as much of it out of my life as I can. If a gas station plays ads while I fuel at the pump I will look away. If it plays sound this station is dead to me and go to another one.

    The worst is that it is a blatant tax on everyone. Not just for being annoying eyesores, but in the value of the products we buy. When a company spends millions of dollars in advertising to make their $400 product look like it should be worth $800, it is the consumer who foots the bill and then some.

  • Trump's Disastrous Impact on the U.S. Standing in the World

    Jump

  • Switzerland and Russia, staying as steady as ever

  • GOP senator says she went from ‘I don’t care’ to ‘I see what the big deal is’ after reviewing unredacted Epstein files

    Jump

  • Because as long as they haven't seen the files they can make themselves believe that maybe the whole Epstein affair is speculation and grossly exaggerated and that they can't possibly be that bad. When they finally see the truth they can no longer make those mental gymnastics. It also helps that they also likely realize that the truth will get out sooner or later and don't want to be among the ones who protected those monsters.

  • The City of Chicago will allow residents to issue parking tickets

    Jump

  • Calm down, it was primarily a joke comment.

  • People with good Photoshop skills are about to have a great way to get back to the people they don't like

  • BBC Article: Iran Protests "one of the largest mass killings in the world", heavy arms - such as the DShK - and medium arms, such as the PK machine guns, were mounted on military pickup trucks

    Jump

  • DShKs are pretty much the Soviet equivalent to the M2 .50 cal heavy machine gun. It is absolutely brutal to use those on people.

  • I live in Canada. My rationalization is that as much as what's happening in the US is pissing me off, I have no business going into another country to try to fix it for the people who live there.

    However, if the day ever arrives that they decide to follow through with their threat of annexing my country, it will become my problem. And you can trust me that I'll make sure to become their problem as well.

  • There's a reason why they prefer to attack unarmed people. That one time they encountered someone who turned out to be carrying a weapon they panicked and murdered him.

  • That acronym is common in the military for reporting enemy sightings. How fitting.

  • And no one will go to jail over this

  • Ghislaine Maxwell set to face Epstein committee but expected to refuse to answer questions

    Jump

  • You mean the same Ghislaine who got transferred to a nicer prison after a meeting with Trump's lawyer and then making the statement that "Trump was a gentleman"?

    I just felt like we had to remind people of this every time she is being brought to testify about anything.

  • In the future, it will be considered unbelievable that repairing a product used to be more expensive than buying a new one

    Jump

  • It would have been unbelievable in the past as well. What we are experiencing right now shouldn't be considered normal. Quality and efficiency have no longer being incentivized by the forces of the market for quite a while. If we don't fix that, there won't be a future for us to be baffled by this in.

  • ... why?

    Jump

  • I imagine that his perception of time is also affected when he uses his super speed. Yes, he can run from one side of the continent to the other and back in a fraction of a second. But from his perspective, he just ran nonstop for an entire month.

  • Ex-KGB official says 2 countries have copies of compromising Trump video

    Jump

  • We should put out a ransom for the video.

    GoFundMe anyone?
