They do get released. I need a source of high quality rips for the NAS to stream from.

Still no blu ray last time I checked.

Ok, if you don’t use their web site you won’t see the UX dark patterns. Trust us, they there and fit with the overall garbagefication theme. Annoys the living shit out of me. At least no more Prime Video UI and ad trainwreck.

If you haven’t noticed, you’ve been not paying attention. I canceled Prime a while ago and they try very hard to get you back. And they try to sneak on you billed expedited shipping when over minimum gratis shipping quota. Dark patterns galore.

It would be a major pain for me to boycott them completely so I don’t, yet.

There is no reliable risk assessment for truly intelligent, autonomous systems. Let’s stop pretending that it can exist.

Paywalled.

Look up overshoot of the ecosystem carrying capacity.

What is “4000ac”?

If you can’t censor it easily, it’s “controversial”.

Who cares?

The point of modern deep learning approaches is that they’re extremely easy on the developer skill. Decades ago realtime machine vision needed a machine vision expert, these days you throw the hardware at the problem at learning stage, and embedded devices to run the results are stupidly powerful (doesn’t even take a Jetson board), if you compare to what has been available even a decade ago.

I know it already does, at least in newer Lancets. Expect this in fpv type devices soon.

Tracking a moving object in realtime with video is a standard task for a machine learning engineer. You can do it on an embedded platform with ML hardware support. I don’t know what hardware newer Lancets use but they can already do it according from developer reports from Telegram channels like e.g Разработчик БПЛА.

Onboard AI guidance is not difficult.

The most relevant question: can you pay taxes with it?

I have a hunch there is a small audiencenon Lemmy for that kind of thing.

So a Cerebras wafer will be 10^6 faster for the same computation as now, for the same price, in just 10 years? Not after Moore scaling ended many years ago and neural hardware architecture has matured. You can sure go analog, but that’s not the same computation. And that’s the end of the line, not without true 3d integration.

It depends on the legislation on where the instance is hosted and/or personal liability of its operator. As a content contributor (if identifiable) you can be also personally liable. In practice you can host an instance anonymously, using bulletproof hosting and don’t care for much for such things.

Almost all of it is AWS. Which has a what, a 30% margin? Your money at work.

Which part of public ledger they don’t understand?

Prime. Subscriptions with rebates still work. Prime video was already annoying enough with the ads at the beginning.

Killed Amazon Fire TV stick before, was on nVidia Shield TV pro. Will try to order stuff elsewhere in future, too.

And I finally canceled. It was the final enshittification straw that broke the camel’s back.

And it’s a useless toy compared to my 1 k$ ceiling mounted white Epson.

I would certainly love to see a floatglass, aluminium and silicon production facility powered by renewable electricity only. And the previous steps in the production supply chain.

The problem with renewables aren’t that they are dirty. It’s that they’re not self sustainable, while we’re running out of fossils and minerals.

How much less electricity is UK using in 2023 vs 2022? Or pre-pandemic years.

Teenagers. US teenagers, specifically. So definitely no big problem.

Personally for me the problem starts when there is no mobile hardware which supports free/libre OS. It is already visible in the supported hardware list of LineageOS. Large tablets, particularly.

Sorry, I haven’t started memorizing Fediverse handles yet. Tim Morgan measures ECoE in percent, and real GDP is GDP minus debt, or x units of debt produce a fraction of that in GDP. Plus ECoE accounting. His model is proprietary, so nobody exactly knows how it’s computed but he himself.

That IRENA model seems to link some large spreadsheets and notes on that page. No idea how complete that is.

As to investments necessary, some two decades ago I estimated we’d need some 3 TUSD/year, inflation-adjusted, for the next 40 years to transition. As a rough estimate that’s as good as any other guess, not facturing in extraction of progressively depleting resources.

The issue is more that we’re currently running out of extractable fossils (net energy peak for oil liquids is projected to peak as early as 2025 and the decline into nonextractability is rapid) so it’s a question of having liquid fuels and synthetic stock, at all.

What kind of life style we can expect where hydrocarbons and energy in general is expensive is an interesting question. See e.g. https://surplusenergyeconomics.wordpress.com/ for analysis of that.

About one order of magnitude more expensive than the fossil kind.

We are rather observing we’re poorly representative of the majority of the population. And that’s a good thing.

Would we even miss something if Hollywood is gone?

No, community-owned efforts like Lemmy and Debian exist precisely because neither corporations nor governments are fit to run them.

Completely mute would make a strong point.

You can somewhat trust some people with your data if there is no profit motive. You can’t trust a corporation or a government. Ever.

Are both of you living with your parents? I would make a point to not talk when such devices are present. Or just voice order expensive shit on Amazon for his account.

Mainstream news sources have two primary functions: distracting you with entertainment while manufacturing consent.

At least SpaceX restarted the cheap launch race and is giving us the option of heavy but affordable payloads for scientific instruments.

LEO junk will only get worse with time, so let’s start planning for it.

BBC has no business teaching others about false and misleading claims about the NATO-Russia war.

It’s currently too slow still. Run your own node to get a feel for it.
