@ratsnakegames I don't have the financial reserves to keep looking for jobs.
be ready to feel insane
@hipsterelectron i never stopped

You do not have to give the slopagandists an inch. You do not have to give them a millimeter. You can tell them to shut up or fuck right off. You do not have to justify it. They can read if they want to find out why you say no, but they don't, so they beg the slop machine.

@hipsterelectron most social problems have technical solutions as we all know
@aburka we are only interested in social problems for which we can convince ourselves there exist incremental and non-revolutionary technical solutions to
I love reading alt text because it can reveal more about the personality of the one posting it.
like when it's a picture of a knit sweater and I'm like "okay cool... a sweater" but then click the Alt Text and get this description of the yarn and the stitching used and stuff it's like "damn, they really cared about this"
I'm still working on this AI data center environmental effects talk (which, let me tell you, is seriously fucking depressing), but I wanted to share the best article I've come across on this topic, in case anyone else is interested in knowing exactly how much to hate slop-AI* use: https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1116327/ai-energy-usage-climate-footprint-big-tech/
(I am using slop-AI purposefully here to mean something you could do with more effort on your part, in a less energy intensive way)
Thank you for posting the link to this article.
It is thebest examination of the energy "complexity matrix" around public / commercial A.I. I have read.
I suspect that if the energy use per "cycle" is / 1000, the system will (almost) inevitably expand to consume the available resources in any case.
Its the normal race for incumbency and market dominance.
To expect otherwise is to walk past the SuperHighways of Tulips ... Its natural system behaviour, riddled with excess , Black Swans and cold correction.
There are many others making reasonably sane claims around replacing the GPU model with other even less linear neural models .
RiscV tilts the transparency toward the greater good AND enables true LOCAL (and "edge") computes ... Which may also help...

Perhaps some quantum computing breakthroughs will / maybe / not help with the energy usage ?
This is all way beyond my grokage!
We need more men in STEM (stockings, tights, eyeliner, mesh).

Freedom dividend:
Big (tech) companies who make billions out of (free) public information need to pay virtual shares for market access in Europe, that will be equally distributed among all citizens.
Also:
Neutral intermediaries (DGA) are a thing, in media too. One could build a reasonable EUDI and be done with bullshit like this.
I think that is what the EU tries to do, lol.
Oh, fuck no.
