Dad, what is a lynx?

The feud between Musk and Apple over satellite service pits the world’s richest man against one of the world’s most-valuable companies.

Now see what happens with too much de-regulation and “freedom”

Muuhahaha…

Asking was unthinkable. At 17 I was glad when they informed me :)

Nice try, Bezos

Mujahideen in Afghanistan or on the front lines of Korea or any of a dozen other proxy wars.

I do not count these as the Cold War.

Proxy wars have their special funding and maybe false motives, but they are hot wars. Real wars.

The Cold War consisted of threats. Piling up weapons, bombs, nukes, and counting and comparing who’s got more of them. These threats were made mainly by politicians. Maybe I was wrong in saying they “fought” it.

For the impatient: it was a story about Merlin. Not a story written by Merlin :)

And an impressive documentation about what historians can do with technology.

Who exactly

Some AI or other, at some 3 letter agency, but they will never tell you exactly.

The U.S. is eyeing Greenland

I believe that the Great Tricktator is already determined to rob it. Question is only, how, that means, which exact tactic he is going to apply.

I am so fucking glad Europe got nukes.

The Cold War is over. We live in very different times now. Try to understand it.

to further erode European sovereignty?

This whole situation is not about Europe. Europe is a mere nuisance.

This is how people brainwashed by capitalism would use it to deprive us all of the post-scarcity future.

That doesn’t work out. Unfortunately.

Reason:

When it was politicians who fought the Cold War, they were few who had actually a say, and these few got some minimum brain, at least.

But in your scenario, it is random jerks who execute that scheme everywhere. There will be some who pull the trigger just for … all kinds of stupid shit that has triggered them. So you’d have nukes going off somewhere, at least every few days, and then nobody can really rule the world anymore with them. The power of the threat will be gone.

I make another Elon.

And then another on the next day, and then another etc. When I have got a dozen of them, I let them loose on the real one and on each other and watch whatever happens.

Next I make another Trump…

Even the simpler AI models can simulate ‘management’.

What we don’t have is AI’s that simulate your everyday asshole bosses.

What we don’t have either is AI’s that simulate fair, decent, smart, and empathic bosses.

Is much heavier

I have heard about identity provider software on Linux for self hosting.

Is that a possibility for family members’ win11 accounts too, when they run into that problem in the future? Or is a M$ account the only way then?

Mendel was an actual scientist, that’s right. But he and his work did not confirm Darwin’s ideas. That’s the most frequent error of so many Darwin followers.

But that’s Mendel, not Darwin.

A different flavor of ice cream doesn’t make a wholly new dessert.

Manipulative tricks. They do NOT want to make it easy for you.

For example, if they can keep your brain busy with a complicated name, then you put a lot of brain energy into remembering their product.

The “Silver Adam 590 HT” is so much better than the Adam.

In my understanding, art is made of

1. creativity

2. craftsmanship

If one of them is lacking, then the outcome is either just a copy, or even a bad copy.

Current AI is lacking both.

So whenever anyone calls generated pictures “art”, then you know something about that one.

repeat anything with no authentication

oops 🤣
