I used to work nextdoor to the broadcast headquarters to an old sports cable network and their satellite uplinks. They had several diesel generators on site to ensure power never went down else their entire network went dark. If power was lost, they had batteries for immediate power that lasted long enough for the generators to kick in. When the generators kicked in, it went from being a nice quiet area to being in the parking lot of a truck stop with all of the engines running. If these new datacenters are powering themselves with generators, then yeah, I'd not want them to be around me either.

I think your ire at the discussion is pointed in the wrong direction.

The people that care about that won't be using CCP products/services no will they?

if this is a legal scam or illegal scam.

the fact this is something to be distinguished says a lot about where we are now and none of what it says is good

by looking at the back of the box. He said you could get it

Well that is definitely something different about today's software websites. How many times have you looked at a company's website for a product/service and still left wondering what it did?

so what? this has nothing to do with them taking from those that took before them. china censoring information they do not like is nothing new and seems irrelevant to this conversation

As I see it, the AI companies are the ones that started the "fuck you got mine" defense. Look at how they obtained their data to train their models. Look at how they've gone about building their data centers. It's yet another example of how tech companies hurry up to get established with no regards for anything other than getting to a point of being too big to stop.

This is why I don't give a shit that this is happening. It's actually kind of funny to me.

I find that it's actually more annoying than it is useful

ah, I misread the comment as the data center was built by the zoo. skimmed past the "trying to" detail

This is such an obvious concern that it's hard to understand how the GP didn't think of it as well. Clearly, people don't always consider all the things and get focused in so they can't see the forest for the trees.

Don't think there was a complaint as you're interpreting. It was just an example of known power usage.

I can attest for the smells better. Now, I'm left wondering which smells worse, an AI datacenter or a large beer brewery. As a kid, we had a Mrs. Baird's bread bakery which was in the heart of town that students would take field trips to see (which is no longer there and is now apartments). On the other side of town is a Budweiser plant, and it's infamous for being so odorific but it is located way the hell out there.

That's great for future sites, but how is that going to improve the zoo's situation?

boy did you miss the point. I know that's what they say, but the GP comment said that pretty much everything you need to know can be found just from the metadata which diminishes the claims for needing to decrypt the data. It's trivializing the value of the decrypted data.

If that were true, they wouldn't need to store it for ever

Was that as mad as when Adobe didn't believe Apple when they said to switch to 64bit so they didn't because FCPStudio wasn't updated to 64bit only to have Apple release FCPX instead causing Adobe to miss an entire upgrade version on Mac? (you should read that run-on breathlessly as intended)

From TFA: "The policy reflects growing concern about Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) attacks, in which adversaries intercept and store encrypted communications today with the intention of decrypting them once a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC) becomes available."

Once it gets to be "later" where the harvest data is able to be decrypted, I guess will have decent enough LLMs to summarize all of that data? Otherwise, there's going to be such a huge back log to make it not too useful

Didn't think the /s was necessary, but of course that's what happens since I assumed it. To be clear, I do not think the founders were crazy.

well, in theory, Congress funds executive branch stuff. So if Congress had a spine and actually behaved the way it is meant, it could stop funding executive branch stuff it doesn't like. It could also pass laws limiting the stuff it didn't like. Man, those were some crazy people often known as founders for having such idealistic notions like that. They just were not able to think past their recent experiences of fighting a war to free themselves from the king to think that enough time could pass that the slippery slope could hit bottom to allow for the modern day results

and isn't compatible

is that a GNU v POSIX type of compatibility issue?

human illumination is nothing compared to the giant fusion reactor that would be lighting it up for 2 weeks at a time. At least on terra firma, you can view the sky nightly.

It'll be longer than that. If during that 2.5 years more and more companies move away from US companies, why do you think they would just abandon the non-US company to move back to a US company? The non-US company would have to be sooooo bad for that to happen. Also, there's no guarantee that the next US administration will be the opposite of the current, and even if it is there's no guarantee the one after that won't flip back.

well, it's clear from the objects still being in the tombs when the raiders came to plunder that they dead did not take the items into the afterlife with them. This clearly shows they are not being used by the original owners.

you can opt out of AI.

Even that is problematic for me. How about let someone opt-in if they want it? If they don't, then no additional action is necessary

The difference is that nowadays people can just skip the research part and copy-paste Llama. No value added.

and why would the person doing that do that? if the person asking the question wanted to know what an llm thought, wouldn't they have just asked the llm for an instant response instead of having to wait for someone else to respond? i'm at a total loss of being able to understand the point. it's obviously different if the response is a bot posting just in case that needs to be explained to a bot.

So let's encode video and torrent like it's 2002!

Let's have a meet up a Circuit City!!

When 360 videos first started to become viable, all we had were looking at the flattened image. It took a bit to get used to. Eventually, the filters caught up so you could slide the rotation around to keep action centered which made things simple in comparison.

That larger image size allows for more aggressive image stabilization as well.

Why are you dependent on a single app? Pretty much any NLE has ability to edit 3D footage.

It’s never going to be worth shopping a $40 item from the US to the UK unless it’s tiny.

That's bold. Who are you to say what is worth something to someone you don't know. I've already stated that I have done this, but it is a limiting factor on how often I do.
