Bitcoin finely found a use case that’s not crime. Take that crypto haters.

The carbon cost of producing the EV is higher though, but yeah long term still better as long as you use it for like 5 years and don’t get a new one whenever it comes out like it’s an iPhone.

I feel like the white blood cells should be the guards. They’re the ones who will kill anything that gets out of line, and they’re white…

Same vibe as Stalins

How many divisions does the pope command?

looks like they tried to cut oman in on the deal too but they refused

Nah, they’d gladly prevent trans women , who they view as men, from getting gender affirming care. They would try to prevent this on the same grounds of “it’s not natural to mess with people’s hormones”

Wow, good on Iran for not leaving their ally out to dry. Trump’s mind probably can’t grasp the idea of loyalty so he probably never thought this would happen when he announced it yesterday.

Echoing back “I am alive” isn’t on the same level as saying “find a vulnerability” and the agent finding and executing that vulnerability. One a toddler can do, the other requires a lot of technical expertise.

You cease, I fire, that’s how it works

Ignore the “containment” framing, they made a hacking bot and it seems to actually be good at finding and exploiting vulnerabilities:

The AI model “found a 27-year-old vulnerability in OpenBSD—which has a reputation as one of the most security-hardened operating systems in the world,” the company wrote.

Dismiss this as marketing drivel all you want but hacking is just the sort of needle in a haystack problem that AI is very good at. It requires broad knowledge, a lot of cycles trying and failing, and is easily verifiable, ie. Can you execute arbitrary scripts or not. Even if this release is BS good hacking agents are bound to come eventually and we should be discussing the implications of that instead of burying our heads in the sand, pretending AI is useless and that this is all hype.

Mint still takes upstream changes from Ubuntu though right?

How?

Something about hegels dialectic of the slave in there. If you offload all your tasks and responsibilities onto a slave then you become dependent on that slave so the slave now has a sort of power over you

Might be more common with the spike in gas prices, gotta take “savings” where you can get them

The US is liberating the women of Iran. Can’t be locked in your house all day if you don’t have one.

Idk if this is a joke, but “ran through” is what the kids these days use to degrade promiscuous women, eg “she’s been ran through a lot”

Can someone explain to me why this is bad?

It’s a separate app so you don’t have to engage with it if you don’t want to

It’s helping people to control their experience, which IMO is a good thing

This is also probably helping with the development of the platform in general, if someone has a good UI idea but doesn’t have the technical know how to implement it, now they can. They can then test it out, refine it, share it and then maybe it gets added to the main UI. Same with feed algorithms. It makes development more bottom up.

The bar is so low and they still manage to limbo under it

North Korea really puts a lie to the whole “if Iran gets nukes there gonna bomb NYC tomorrow” . Kim has had nukes for a decade and has never done anything with them.

We just can’t imagine the “bad guys” would want nukes for defense and deterrence and not to just blow us all up immediately because the movies tell us that’s what bad guys do.
