  • Oh look, the tech companies sent a shit eating emissary to tell us how to live our lives so as to exploit us better...

  • Finally something the EU can invest those 600 billion in. Or buy it, like lots of EU startups were by FAANG companies years ago. Tramp says it's dead tech, so it's ok.

  • The part that controls/balances the discharge profiles, right? Because sodium batteries have a more non-linear discharge pattern.

  • As AI use rises, developers trust it less!

  • Wait, so it isn't getting worse, I'm just more aware of how flawed it is through long-term exposure?

  • I love this too, I just hope they don't use too much Phosphorous, because those reserves are limited too, maybe there are alternative designs once this gets going.

  • I've noticed more debatelords (only in large communities, like c/technology), not sure they will stay if we don't feed them and the more debatelordy instances just simply ban them.

  • Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded

  • I have another question: why do some eras seem to be so free for technology to evolve and open to new entrants to create their designs and mods and why do other eras feel like traps set by investors and enclosures for consumers? The 80s/90s felt great for technology, but today it feels like they all want to take anyone's capacity to do anything beyond being a dumb paying consumer away...like they're covering all possible outcomes to come out enslaving everyone. Why didn't they do that in the 80s/90s? Am I looking at the past with rose-tinted glasses?

  • Everyone has their path into activism and politicization. Last time this happened was when wikileaks got blocked by visa/mastercard, next time, with this experience it may be one of those causes.

  • I would say they aren't as bad as alcohol and gambling, which are pervasive...some of them are just...art...some aren't :D I could ask you the same about lots of other things, from music to literature. I just don't like book burning. If someone put their effort into creating something that they thought was worth creating, why is it up to anyone to ban it for any adult that wants to see it?

  • Depends on who the leaders are. Some Many weaponize religion for their own aims and their ends justify the means. Some are peaceful, tolerant and constructive, all based off the very same texts.

  • You're making a lot of value judgements without a whole lot of evidence to back them up. My point is perfect atheist: religious movements are a type of politics with certain aims (not exactly unions, but incidentally communion, charity, etc). It is you who are saying that religion is somehow a special phenomenon who puts them above other ways to organize society...for the worse. Maybe you think that it is because it is irrational and metaphysical. There is plenty of metaphysics in the form of utopias (heaven) in politics, saints/prophets (cult of personality). You just say that bad comes out of religion, but not out of politics...yeah...ok.
