Hacker with bullhorn: “Save your money! Accept one of our free tanks! It is invulnerable, and can drive across rocks and swamps at ninety miles an hour while getting a hundred miles to the gallon!”

This. Independent of whether a local AI is desirable on your computer, an AI on someone else’s computer has no goddamned business with any of your personal data. That should literally be illegal.

Police unions hate legalization, it takes away one of their “most powerful tools” – ie, ways to pull people over, search their persons, cars, and houses, take their assets, and have a made-for-TV press conference with a big pile of drugs, guns, and money

finally I can play Solitaire on my HPUX

Trump could demand congress legalize weed and instantly double his support base.

Easy wins, avoided

Seems like popping open WSL in a Windows VM running inside a Linux host

Is “No Hamas” allowed?

George W.Bush: “When I first met with Putin I saw he was wearing a cross […] He started talking about his mother, the cross, and what it meant to him […] I looked into his eyes and I saw a soul. I trusted him.”

STOP. FUCKING. ELECTING. PEOPLE. WITH. SKY. DADDY!

Keith Richards

The good and bad thing about perplexity.ai is that is almost never hallucinates, and gives good grounded references. That is usually a Good Thing, but in this case the result is not what I wanted. GET YOURSELF TESTED, MR RICHARDS!!

Has Keith Richards Ever Had His DNA Sequenced?

There is no public evidence or credible reporting that Keith Richards has ever had his DNA fully sequenced. While the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist is often the subject of fascination due to his longevity and resilience despite decades of a hard-living lifestyle, news about sequencing the genomes of famous rock stars has largely focused on others, particularly Ozzy Osbourne. Osbourne’s full genome sequencing was widely reported as a unique case meant to explore how he survived his own legendary excesses

Several articles and interviews speculate about Richards’ remarkable constitution and have even referenced the idea that his genome would be scientifically fascinating to examine. Notably, in the discussions about Osbourne’s genome project, geneticists and Osbourne himself jokingly suggested Keith Richards as another ideal candidate for sequencing, precisely because of his reputation for surviving decades of substance abuse.

However, these were speculative comments, and there is no indication that any such analysis has ever actually taken place.

tldr: delusional adults with a Sky Daddy that hates science

Look at CFS SPARC, not ITER

They will have an actual functioning fusion machine with Q>10 by end of this year thanks to high temperature superconductors that were not available when ITER started

I want her on my team because everyone’s productivity will go thru the roof. She’s a master craftsman of programming.

Greene has introduced a bill to outlaw “weather modification and geoengineering”

Okay, so her reasons for putting this forward are because she is a grown woman with a Sky Daddy.

But she’s right, in this case, for two reasons.

1. IMO as an engineer seeing how casually and quickly we are putting increasingly capable AI shit into fucking everything … some regulations to control things like weather modification, geoengineering, and godlike intelligence are a pretty good idea.

2. She does not seem to realize that dumping gigatons of CO2 into the atmosphere very much counts as “geoengineering”
