Geopolitics@lemmy.world•If I were Iran, I'd be bombing all the data centers around DC. I do suspect they would be planning that.English
11·2 days agoThey wouldn’t put that much effort into it if it weren’t a legitimate threat that could occur from an anticipatable motive paired with an anticipatable capability.
The fact that they have designed the buildings that way proves all the points I made.

1·2 days agoYou don’t need an ICBM. Many data centers are litterally a rocks through from publicly accessible land. Iran is known to successfully ship illicit rocketry that can travel the length of a town, much less 100 yards.
For example. This is an attack they just did on the largest radar system in the region. https://submatrix.net/c/War/CTnGZcYfZD.jpg They used in regional proxies, the way they tend to. No ICBMs involved.

3·2 days agoAgreed. That makes sense.
It wouldn’t prevent all chance of attack if they did that. Dresden was designated to have no factories in it so that women and children could flee there to avoid the war. It got fire bombed in the war anyway.
The fact that the US started another war on a Sunday is proof that it’s not really a Christian nation.

1·6 days agoI feel like no one got the hint I was talking about the World Trade Center. What I’m saying is Al Quida basically already did what he is arguing for. I’m calling him an unaware al quida sympathizer. Advocating for terrorism is bad. Worse if you are actually arguing for 9/11. Even worse if you know so little that you don’t even realize that’s what you are doing.
OP. Go see a doctor.
If I was that old I’d be stressing about the heat death of the universe.
Hey, if we are fighting Islamic fundamentalists, they are doing it too.
Bro. The Epstein presidency has been running since the mid-90s. It’s a lot more than 3 times.

2·13 days agoAndroid apps do solve a lot of UI problems a that are unique to the phone interface. If only Linux could run APKs. Oh wait, it can. Linux can run anything.

5·13 days agoTerrorists tend to act across borders and so they are interested mostly in global corporations. If only there was one single building that housed all of them at the same time. Some buildings where they all engaged in trade around the world, centralized.
Then that would make your scheme easy.
Brave search does also have AI, but it doesn’t seem annoying, and you have to expand it yourself to see it. It isn’t shoved down your throat.
Having an AI overview is handy to have around when you actually want it. On Brave it’s just available. Also it doesn’t tend to hallucinate what isn’t supported in the search.
Maybe Brave is using a summary model and google is using a retro-fitted chat model. So theirs ends up opinionated and wants to share extra facts. But I can only speculate.

12·14 days agoWhat we need is a good linux phone that is affordable, has hardware that isn’t slow, and isn’t over sold to an annual pre-order.
Sadly, if the first two are true, the third one becomes an issue.
What we need is a large company to see that is a sign of huge pent-up demand. Apparently, HP and Dell are both talking about switching to Linux as their default OS for desktops. Once all the desktop manufacturers find themselves in the business of selling hardware with Linux on it, either mobile manufacturers will copy, like Samsung, or the desktop folks decide to make their product smaller.
What everyone has wanted from the beginning was a desktop in their pocket. The amount of time that no one has produced that despite major demand, and the amount of development that has gone into building any other stack, just feels like willful suppression at this point.
Is there some government somewhere telling large-scale manufacturers that they can’t build something as free and open as a desktop that isn’t at least the size of a laptop? Because it actually takes less technology to make something that’s open than something that is closed. And there is just as much appeal for the consumer to not restrict them.
Why can’t people see my relationship with my AI girlfriend as cute? I think it’s cute.
How do you want them to be for the people and not for corporations if you want them to subsidize an industry? At the end of the day that will be paid to corporations, and you are giving corporations more incentive to get into your congressperson’s office to help them figure out how to divide it up. Why would you want more cash exchanged between them and more face time between them? Bad idea if you want corporations out of politics.
More money for [industry x] literally means the government working for some corporations. Doesn’t matter what industry x is.
I was about to say, the economics of this post don’t really add up. And sadly, we have a living example behind your computer screen.
That doesn’t change the way lemmy works. “Someone said something supportive of the thing we like. So it must be true.” Too bad economics doesn’t work that way.
If you want things to be cheap, you pit fossil fuel against green energy in real competition. Then they are both forced to get as cheap as possible at every layer of their supply chains if they want their respective supply chains to continue. That’s what kills profit and greed because they have to give up short-term greed for a shot at long-term survival. When you give either or both a government crutch, the executives involved try to reap as much cash out of that crutch now while the crutch exists.
Whether you give a crutch to either fossil fuel or green energy, at the end of the day you are giving it to an executive. He’s going to take advantage of it and not give you what you want every time.
Do you guys remember the incentives for rural internet rollout? Now they are paying premium cost for crapy internet, which the government already paid to exist. It doesn’t matter how much you agree with the thing you want money to go to, you aren’t going to get a good outcome.
It’s not unjust. Get over it. Don’t want your thing copied. Don’t share it.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Lemmynsfw is down, possibly forever. The server is still serving images and videos though - if anyone wants to archive do it now!English
71·18 days agoI mean I could plug my shit. https://goatmatrix.net/
It’s not super active on the nsfw front but I’m open to it. You’ve just got to hit “hidden from front” on nsfw content.
Any sub exists. Just submit to any topic.Hopefully that plug isn’t unwelcome, but you really can use it.
