I... didn't? In fact I specifically compared it to a similar topic where the myopic focus on women was detrimental to the men who are suffering.

There is, but there a female loneliness crisis at the same time with the same cause, that poverty and societal atomisation cause loneliness, is the argument. Its not great to pick a general problem and exclusively focus on one sub group of people suffering from it. In the same way that focus on violence against women excludes the larger number of men who suffer from violence.

Turns out, even when you have to throttle them down slightly due to drought, having a large amount of available nuclear power, like France and Sweden do, means you emit an awful lot less carbon.

France exported 10TWh during July at the peak of the heatwave, their nuclear powerplants were feeding into other countries grids even during these partial shutdowns.

And yet, despite that, France still has some of the cleanest electricity in the world with prices in line with the rest of Europe and exported about 10TWhrs of electricity during July.

I agree that downtime is bad, but I don't think abandoning nuclear to go all in on solar which has a minimum downtime of 50% or wind which has extended periods of <10% is a solution to that. Given that we need electrification to replace fossil fuels in transport and heating over the next few decades to prevent catastrophic climate change, the only reasonable course IMO is to build out as much as possible of nuclear and renewables.

Real answer? Because train lines cut through a lot of land and every landowner along the route can hold up progress with legal objections. Flock cameras are just attached to poles and data centres are compact.

Don't glaze China too hard. They also built >80% of the coal power built last year

Was supposed to say illegal, the argument didnt work with saying legal.

The difference is that a hand grenade is illegal to own. A series of matrix multiplications is not.

A better comparison is a knife. If you throw that in the air and it lands on someone you are responsible, the person who sold you a potentially dangerous but legal tool is not.

Edit illegal, not legal. silly mistake

The title kinda buries the lede there. I thought it was ridiculous to fine a platform just because a streamer happened to die on camera, but no, they were streaming months long abuse and torture of this guy at the hands of his co-streamers.

You cant just "fund a startup trying to make ram". Chip fabrication is probably the most difficult and capital intensive production process there is. What manufacturing more ram looks like is investing tens of billions of real money (not the you give us stock we let you use our GPU deals the AI companies have been doing) and then waiting 5-10 years before the fab you funded starts to make chips, and hope prices are still high by then.

That's why the existing manufactures are slow to scale up, they arent sure that the current spike in demand will still be there by the time their scaling up increases production.

So calling someone disagreeable a dick, or a bellend, or a prick, or a tosser, or a knobhead, or a wanker, is fine. But calling them a cunt is beyond the pale?

Well no they weren't, they were "caught" flying a plane over Gaza. Going from that to "directly participating in the operations" is a conclusion you are drawing which seems plausible, even likely, but is not directly supported by a British plane doing loops over Gaza.

It wont be Nvidia unless they play things incredibly badly, they're the only ones making actual profit by selling shovels in the goldrush.

He was actually a founder of spaceX, it was Tesla where he essentially bought the company and had to win a lawsuit to get people to call him "founder".

The most annoying thing is there is a trivial to implement way to close to halve these stupidly inflated sizes: make the highest resolution of textures a free DLC that you optionally install

Its rather revealing that your response to "China has severe restrictions on political speech" is to accuse that person of bootlicking for American empire.

There's a good reason why it's been talked about since the 60s but never happened:

Deleting (or editing) comments does not change what the hosting website has, it just updates what they display. so there will be lines in a database saying:

• the original comment was "blah"
• on the 6th of August 2024 it was changed to "blah2"
• and the 20 of January the comment was deleted

There isnt a way for you to remove that unless there is some legal mechanism for you to force them to remove all data about you.
