    'Deadly attacks against Israel will be carried out soon', Iran warns

    Jump

  • Get a load of this hot air balloon of gaslighting.

    Israel gets to kill humanitarian aid workers, civilian encampments, and embassies in other countries killing military generals.

    And after all of that, it's the people that warned something like this could happen. Well it is obviously their fault.

    Enjoy your war with Iran, hope the nukes miss you. So you can enjoy your irradiated wasteland of a future.

    Biden backtracks on climate plans and ‘walks tightrope’ to court both young voters and moderates

    Jump

  • I do truly wonder how they are going to sell this lie to the American people when temperatures could exceed 2 - 5 degrees this year.

  • Controversial benchmarking website goes behind paywall — Userbenchmark now requires a $10 monthly subscription

    Jump

  • Why on earth do they have a monthly subscription on something people maybe use once every 1 or two years?

    Who is actually going to pay a netflix sub to see marginally bad data that often?

    Like Netflix I understand if you cannot help yourself.

    But is there a band of computer nerds out there, that I don't know about, that want play by play updates on how a graphics card is preforming compared to others? On a monthly basis?

  • Reddit has reportedly signed over its content to train AI models

    Jump

  • Oh no! My outdated political takes and league of legends rants are going to be used to train AI!?

    We're all doomed!

  • Ukraine appears to be attacking Russia's oil-and-gas industry with small, cheap drones that can bypass its air defenses

    Jump

  • True.... but also there are safety mechanisms that shut off the flow of methane in events such as this. As the last thing you will want is combustible methane on your facility fire that was just bombed.

  • A man opened an emergency exit and walked on a plane's wing. Passengers are supporting his action

    Jump

  • Flight tracking sites confirmed that flight AM672 to Guatemala City was delayed for 4 hours and 56 minutes Thursday.

    The flight to Mexico city from Guatemala city, is a 3 hour trip. Those people had been waiting for nearly 5 hours just to take off.

    because of a maintenance alert on the plane, the captain had to return to the gate for the required maintenance.”

    Inconceivable that a safety check was requested after the people were on board and the money-for-services was exchanged.

    A video apparently recorded aboard the flight showed passengers fanning themselves and asking a flight attendant for water.

    Yea no, I thought we all agreed this was stupid penny pinching tactics.

  • Russia's elite paratroopers and marines are refusing orders to launch 'human wave attacks,' Ukraine official says

    Jump

  • Blitz tactics could work, but I don't think deploying paratroopers is going to turn the tide once Ukraine realizes what is happening.

    As the same anti drone defensive measures that are used in Ukraine, could also be used against paratroopers.

    Paratroopers would have to take insane risks for a advantage (creating a flanking position). That Ukraine would have advanced knowledge on.

  • Extreme cold still happens in a warming world – in fact climate instability may be disrupting the polar vortex

    Jump

  • People think it is cold, not realizing that someone is leaving the freezer door wide open.

    It feels cold now, but once the arctic loses all that ice, things will heat up quickly.

    But no one is going to care unless it effects them. People thinking global warming is coming for them 15 years from now are going to be surprised when the effects are felt 1-2 years from now.

  • Top NATO Military Officer Urges Allies and Leaders to Plan for the Unexpected in Ukraine

    Jump

  • Over two days of talks in Brussels, NATO’s top officers are expected to detail plans for what are set to be the biggest military exercises in Europe since the Cold War later this year.

    While I understand the importance of showing might, this was a bit underwhelming compared to the tile of "NATO top officers schedule war game."

    These things happen a lot more then people realize.

  • CEOs say generative AI will result in job cuts in 2024

    Jump

  • The findings, based on interviews with 4,702 company chiefs spread across 105 countries, point to the far-reaching impacts that AI models are expected to have on economies and societies, a topic that will feature prominently at the annual meetings.

    Once you start digging into the article it is quite hysterical what executives think a predictive chat model are going to replace. It reads more like a wish list then anything else.

    But they expect AI to replace transportation, Tesla and General Motors are not having any success with this.... yet. There appears to be a bandwidth issue that isn't going to be solved until the US upgrades to fiber.

    Boston dynamics are having a lot of success with their robots of late. Everyone else is stuck still getting robots to stack boxes. Which is also having it's problems with bandwidth. And apparently logic issues.

    They also expect things like Energy and power/utilities to be replaced by AI. And that is just dumb. Automation has already swept through the power sector, and AI is not going to help with much else, unless it is going to start repairing power lines, transformers, or the regular substation.

    Above all, this is not taking into account the new jobs this also creates. People will need to repair and troubleshoot equipment at multiple layers.

    What is also absent from the article is the executive jobs AI will also replace. Once AI can view things at multiple levels. True, you don't need the average worker anymore. But you don't need someone that is just collecting a paycheck, do you? If AI will be programed to replace redundancies, then it won't only find those at lower levels.

  • Ukrainian Sources: We Just Shot Down Two Of Russia’s Best Command Planes

    Jump

  • Ukraine has been having a lot of success recently, due to a new weapon on the field, it is taking out most of Russia's remaining air power.

    That according to the Russian Air Force General, was already reduced to less then 1/3rd effectiveness.

  • Zelensky refuses to hold elections in wartime Ukraine

  • ‘There’s Such a Slaughter!’ – Russian Soldier Reveals Horrific Losses Near Ivanivka

    Jump

  • He then says that when a unit of 20 men attack a Ukrainian position only “two or three come back.”

    None come back, because Russian commanders are starting to execute soldiers that retreat.

    He says: "Yesterday Sam flew the plane and said that just 8 people were sitting in the trench, just 8 khohols [Ukrainains], fck! And our men go there by the hundreds, and they are not even capable of taking a fking thing!"

    "Snipers and machine gunners are sitting there, and that's it! There is absolutely no one else there!

    8 vs. hundreds, no wonder Russia thinks they can take the village. I would have too.

    Unfortunately, it looks like the tactic of going in one by one like a row of ducks through a minefield, is a pretty dumb tactic as far as military blunders go.

  • Wow, that looks amazing, must have taken a long time to carve all of that from one piece.

  • New York Bill Would Require a Criminal Background Check to Buy a 3D Printer

    Jump

  • The understandable difference being that a gun has but one purpose: Kill people.

    Whereas everything else I have mentioned, including 3d printers are multi-purpose. Not intended to kill, but to serve multiple roles.

    Though, it is a good point that few devices could be cobbled together to make infinite guns so long as you had material. So I am not saying it isn't a class of it's own, just where does the logic end with that point?

    Is it only legal for a company to print guns? How does a license alone protect people? I don't think that is something I could answer.

  • New York Bill Would Require a Criminal Background Check to Buy a 3D Printer

    Jump

  • I think some people would say the ability to print a gun is more deadly then a knife.

    But I kind of agree with you.

    If we start licensing people to own stuff that has the potential to do harm, then eventually you are going to run into a never ending list of household items and laws of natural physics:

    • Bleach
    • Vinegar
    • Salt
    • Sugar
    • Chlorine
    • Gas
    • Natural gas
    • Methane
    • Fertilizers
    • Electricity
    • Paper
    • Fire
    • Propane
    • Etc.

  • 2 women say they were threatened with murder and sexual assault following Israeli vigil in Vancouver

    Jump

  • If we were talking about an elected democracy with elections every 4 years.... I might be inclined to agree, but the last time the people of Palestine got to vote on their government, was in 2005.

    They haven't been able to elect a new leader since 2008.

    And I imagine they aren't too keen right now to hold an election.

  • 2 women say they were threatened with murder and sexual assault following Israeli vigil in Vancouver

    Jump

  • Maybe they should ask the people raping, murdering, and pillaging, if they'd be so kind as to leave.

    Who wants to try first?
