  • I’d say history. But it’s not even that. The US is at war with venezuela and always has been. Just kidding it’s eurasia. Nah haha but they are waging economic warfare. Well Trump did and Biden continues to.

    So should you believe the US claims? You’ll have to as your ideological master programmer of course. It’s not like you could just use historical facts and make some clear logical deductions!

    So yeah it’s ONLY a matter of ideology and opinion /s

    Oh btw Trump also really won the last US election and Biden isn’t even President. It’s not like these things are different in any way - one side is right, the other is wrong, and it’s only a matter of opinion.





  • Using IP laws to legislate this could also lead to disastrous consequences, like the monopolization of effective AI. If only those with billions in capital can make use of these tools, while free or open source models become illegal to distribute, it could mean a permanent power grab. If the capitalists end up controlling the “means of generation” and we the common folk can’t use it.







  • Friesen’s goal is to democratise access to water for people with few options

    A panel costs about $2,000 (£1,500) and lasts at least 15 years

    "These panels are constructed to create four to five litres of drink per panel per day,

    So 22.000 liters over 15 years or 22m³ for $2000. That’s $11 per liter. Maybe half that if their AI improvements pan out. But way too expensive.

    The dissonant / solar heating approach is pretty nice though. This could be interesting if you could build this DIY with simple materials.
