  • Don't think it's a false flag, he's personally pissed at them and they're losing their juicy contract to ClosedAI.

    Doesn't change the fact that they're an American corporation and will absolutely snitch on you though.

  • Well it's the pilot so I watched it every time I rewatched the show.

    What podcast is that? I might be intrested in a new podcast, my current ones only get weekly updates and I only have 2

  • Same thing kinda. Other people have to pay it back so they have to work for it

  • Tbh I think he is easily swayed by those people but also he just... Listens to whoever he met in person last.

  • Well they raised the GDP and everyone got what they wanted so that's better than the two economists eating shit to raise GDP

  • Ah fair enough, I have actually heard of all of those, but I've never played any of them. I think Assassin's Creed is the only one you can really use without mentioning the name first, but true, even then it's too ambiguous.

  • I mean that's Assassin's Creed for pretty much everyone these days, who even remembers Asheron's Call?

    ...

    Is there another AC now? I haven't kept up

  • The immigrants aren't the reason. Not here in Europe either.

    It's well documented at this point that people start having fewer children when medicine and economy develop in a country. It's no longer necessary to have 10 children just in case a few die in the early years, plus there are social safety nets for the elderly so they don't have to be entirely dependent on their children to survive when they're too old to work.

    However, while the economy is great on paper, a lot of people are finding life less and less affordable. Since the 2008 crash, in much of the world, buying a first home has started becoming harder and harder. Covid exacerbated things. Food is pretty expensive these days. A lot of people just don't want to have children unless they can be sure they can provide for them. Now we're also talking about the threat of being made redundant due to AI, in careers previously thought to be mostly immune to automatization. And let's not forget the looming threat of climate change.

    Really, Japan, and us here in Europe too, have to adapt to a new economic reality. Things are going to be more expensive, and there will be fewer children to cover everyone's retirement economically - so we're ALL going to have to make sacrifices in our lifestyles. It's not going to be pretty, and social safety nets for the weakest among us need to be improved everywhere.

    If immigrants have more children, it's just because they're from societies where it's still a necessity, and normal, to have a lot of children. Fairly sure that a few generations in, it becomes normal for them, too, to have fewer children.

  • I'm not sure this is money laundering (that would imply there's a bunch of dirty money to get clean). But it is a scheme for sure.

    Most of that cash is going to be spent, either directly or indirectly, on hardware from nVidia and now I bet they're going to use a bunch of cloud services from Amazon too.

    Just inflating stock prices all round because for its investment in OpenAI, nVidia probably gets to own part of OpenAI + also one of the biggest end customers for their data center GPUs has more money to either build data centers or rent from existing providers.

  • I can't :( his home is a bit too far for my reach

    Think he's also handing it all off to his kids now. Unfortunately not to the one son who wasn't extreme enough for him.

  • It's just most people have a much harder time saying booyah to moral relativism

  • I was the other half in a similar situation and while I love my child, I'm now connected to my ex for the better part of the next 2 decades. And she's been trying her hardest to make our lives hell.

    You made the right call. I obviously wouldn't change it if I could go back now, but you at least had the courage to make the right decision at the right time.

  • I'm sure there will be a quick and peaceful transfer of power to a completely democratic leadership and no civilian casualties whatsoever.

  • Depending on country you may be able to subsidize only part of the sauna as a business expense if it's a sauna at your home office, but actually hosting interviews in it would for sure help your case in claiming it to be operated for business.

    I don't know how it is in the US though.

  • I think that metaphor is quite universal because it's also used very commonly in English and Estonian at the very least.

  • I mean that IS mini. The iPhone 13 mini, considered a tiny phone by most people, had a 5.4" screen.

    I of course remember thinking my 5.0" Moto G (2nd gen) was a huuuge ass slab compared to my previous phone lol

  • If only. Y'all are completely unreachable except by nukes and nobody wants to start a nuclear war.

    Best we can do is isolate you via trade so Americans start starving to death slowly. Many of us are already trying to phase out American products and services.

    I reckon once the economy is shit enough, maybe your countrymen will get angry enough to take care of shit.

  • Yeah there's got to be tens of millions of Americans, maybe hundreds of millions, that have no idea that their government is bombing schools abroad. I bet there's millions if not tens of millions who don't even know anything about what ICE is doing in their own country.

    Make them see it and maybe they'll be uncomfortable enough with it to go out and protest.

  • Honestly, $400-$500 for 7 years of support is a killer deal. 5 years ago the only manufacturer to give a meaningful amount of support was Apple, everyone else was up to 2, even for flagships.

    But I completely understand your situation, especially if you're trying to be fiscally responsible and NOT get your phone on a payment plan of some sort. The 7 years of support means you might be able to find a 2 year old Pixel for below 300 though? Unless they don't depreciate fast enough for that.

  • Mental Health @lemmy.world

    Anyone with SAD: Have you tried a dawn simulator (or sunrise alarm as I think they're also called)?

    I don't have to be trans to appreciate good news!

    Anyone got experience with Ducky keyboards?
