  • Tesla Fans Furious at Video of Tesla Crashing Into Wall Painted Like Road

    Jump

  • It's no longer an edge case if faulty self driving becomes the norm.

    Want to kill someone in a Tesla? Find a convenient spot and paint a wall there.

    Doesn't even have to be an artificial wall, for example take a bend on a mountain road and paint the rock.

  • True AGI would turn into the Singularity in no time at all. It's literally magic compared to what we have at the moment.

    So yes, it would easily solve the climate crisis, but that wouldn't even matter at that point anymore.

    Hard working my ass, he spends more time on Twitter than I do at work.

  • Windows 11, but I already tested out every combination of settings. Windows settings and BIOS CPU settings. Most high performance settings make things just a tiny bit faster, while the laptop blasts the fan at full speed (the fan sucks too, it's too loud for what it does).

    The cooling just sucks, the CPU boosts and then runs straight into thermal throttling and has to cut back. It has been like this since day 1, maybe it got worse in the past 2 years, but it was never good in the first place. Colleagues with the same model had plenty of issues too (and the lead sent it back to the IT department and demanded one model higher up with a beefier CPU, but he's also not happy with it).

    It's a 3 year lease, the laptop will be gone in a year and then hopefully I can choose my next one. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like Dell is currently offering models with AMD CPUs..

  • Dude, I'm not opening up my work laptop. It's going to be replaced in a year anyway.

    The thing has been a piece of shit when it was brand new, it's not the paste.

  • Ah, T15 Gen1 with 48 GB RAM. The Intel CPU throttles hard unfortunately, I'd much rather switch to AMD (or a desktop..).

    Fortunately the company has so many issues with Lenovo, they are switching to Dell now.

  • The old part really does a lot of work here. New ThinkPads are utter trash :-/

    I got excited to get one for work (having heard about the old ones) and was sorely disappointed. It thermal throttles if you look at it wrong, it keeps having BIOS issues with Lenovo being no help and the USB-C display connection (To a Lenovo monitor with their inbuilt docking station!) is iffy.

  • Scientists warn of 'societal collapse' on Earth with worsening climate situation

    Jump

  • Mate, we are talking about a societal collapse. You won't have oil available and you won't be able to refine your own diesel at home (especially without energy).

    Your argument about solar panels being difficult to produce is utterly out of place. Your diesel generator and your car are more difficult to produce, but you already own them from before the downfall. So if you own an EV and you own solar panels then it doesn't matter how difficult those are to produce when you're just using them.

  • Scientists warn of 'societal collapse' on Earth with worsening climate situation

    Jump

  • Lol, Diesel can on average only be stored for 6 to 12 months before degrading. Good luck with that.

    If a collapse ever happens I'd rather have solar panels and an EV. Fuel production and transport would instantly grind to a halt and the existing fuel goes bad soon after.

  • Good joke, you'd have to double and triple check every single citation as LLMs love to hallucinate.

    I wouldn't risk my title or expulsion because an LLM fucked up my work. Even one missed reference or a false citation could cost you plenty.

  • The Pentagon Is Planning a Drone ‘Hellscape’ to Defend Taiwan

    Jump

  • Oh, I fully understand you, I just hate the idea.

    Yes, they could work out a pretense of "One China" while staying separate and just adding a trade deal on top. Just as Ukraine agreed to be independent, give up their nuclear weapons and live in peace with Russia, having guarantees they wouldn't be attacked.

    Sorry, but the only thing I'd accept is China declaring Taiwan as its own independent country. They can add a trade deal on top or whatever else they want to sweeten the deal, but that's what it takes. As long as China keeps up the idea that Taiwan belongs to them this is never going to work out.

  • "One Country, Two Systems": Hong Kong, along with Macau, are the only territories in the People's Republic of China to supposedly enjoy a "high degree of autonomy" and freedom under the "One Country, Two Systems" principle as guaranteed by the Sino-British Joint Declaration and the Hong Kong Basic Law.

    Hong Kong even has their own government (which was undermined by the CCP), of course it's relevant.

    Taiwan would first become a puppet of China, then forcefully gets fully integrated. There won't be any independence, especially not economic independence as China wants the chip factories.

  • How well the diplomatic solution of "One China, while keeping their autonomy" works could be seen with Hong Kong. Lol.

    Free Hong Kong, fuck the CCP.

    Taiwan should be an independent country, full stop.
