This is so fucking stupid that I had to check other sources on what he said, to confirm it. (It does.)
No, it is not just immoral, it’s also fucking stupid. Why would he get the Palestinians or the State of Israel pissed, if he can get both pissed at the same time? The State of Israel doesn’t see those lands as belonging to some banana maize republic dammit, it sees those lands as belonging to itself.
inb4: “but Netanyahu said he was thinking outside the box with fresh ideas! That it’s unconventional thinking!”. Well, his reply is superficially polite (likely to avoid the offend the other Nazi’s precious-oh-so-precious ego), but it’s non-committing and can be easily understood as “this is crazy talk”.
It gets worse. So far the State of Israel has been trying to masquerade the genocide against Palestinians as a self-defence war. Now with Trump suggesting ethnic genocide, more people will ask “wait a minute… isn’t that what Israel is doing already?” (Yes, it is.)
The opponents likely won’t do it because there’s an asymmetry going on here: they’re far more likely to care about the legitimacy of the electoral process than Trump does. And when someone says that elections were fraudulent, no matter if true or false, that legitimacy takes a blow.
Critics argue Trump’s aggressive diplomacy weakens trust, while supporters claim it reinforces U.S. strength.
It might be worth to mention the concepts of soft power and hard power here. I’ll oversimplify it here:
The critics are focusing on the soft power, and they’re IMO spot on - Trump is ruining every bit of soft power that USA has (or had), by taunting allied governments.
In the meantime, the supporters are focusing on hard power… and they’re completely off-mark. Hard power depends on your economical and military capabilities, and those threats are not improving either.
“But what about the tariffs?”, someone might ask. Does anyone here genuinely believe that they’ll improve USA’s economy?
I’m proficient at Portuguese, Italian, and written English. I can also understand some Latin and German. Plus a few Romance languages through mutual intelligibility.
Due to its relative simplicity, learning Esperanto effectively prepares your brain for learning additional languages, making the process quicker and smoother.
Ah, the propaedeutic effect? I think that Esperanto shows the “guts” of the grammar faster than other languages do, and that helps learning languages with similar features.
Yup. You can craft leaves that grant you bonuses once equipped. In a game about blowing leaves out of your screen. (One of the achievements even pokes fun at this contradiction.)
The game is weird, to say the least, but actually fun. It reminds me Anti-Idle, as there are multiple mechanics that are barely associated with each other, except on making some numbers go up; except that those mechanics revolve around leaves as a common theme.
Picture related:
I’m a sucker for crafting and breeding systems that allow you to customise equipment and/or characters. But it’s really hard to find good implementations of the idea, most have some obvious flaw:
Plus a lot more that I didn’t mention. Sorry for the wall of text.
I just had lunch, it’s 13:18 here. I’m planning to bake some empanadas for the night.
No, I only saw it after I solved the problem.
Initially I simplified the problem to one prisoner. The best way to reduce uncertainty was to split the bottles into two sets with 500 bottles each; the prisoner drinks from one, if he dies the poisonous wine is there, otherwise it’s in one of the leftover 500 bottles.
Then I added in a second prisoner. The problem doesn’t give me enough time to wait for the first prisoner to die, to know which set had the poisonous wine; so I had to have the second prisoner drinking at the same time as the first, from a partially overlapping set. This means splitting the bottles into four sets instead - “both drink”, “#1 drinks it”, “#2 drinks it”, “neither drinks it”.
Extending this reasoning further to 10 prisoners, I’d have 2¹⁰=1024 sets. That’s enough to uniquely identify which bottle has poison. Then the binary part is just about keeping track of who drinks what.
Number all bottles in binary, starting from 0000000000. Then the Nth prisoner drinks all wines where the Nth digit is “1”. have each prisoner drinking the wines where a certain digit is “1”.
So for example. If you had 8 bottles and 3 prisoners (exact same logic):
If nobody dies the poisoned wine is numbered 000. And if all die it’s the 111.
OpenAI was not the first domino, just the one that got the most attention.
Yes, that is correct. And perhaps it got the most attention because of all the ruckus Pigboy did over “his” precious data (i.e. users’) + because it made the whole thing hard to ignore.
Remember when you bought shit once and that meant you owned it?
Yeah. I was talking about this with my mum today - the chat started with my cat refusing litterboxes, then “if this was the 90s old newspapers would do the trick”, then on how you don’t really own books you buy from the internet (unlike pirated ones). But it’s the same deal with some physical goods, if someone can brick them from a distance they aren’t really yours.
[Sorry for the rambling.]
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
This process has been happening since ChatGPT was released. And it’ll only get worse.
And when are those corporations get that people hate this sort of system? Ask Clippy.
For context, it’s somewhat common here in Latin America to name markets after the owner’s name; doubly so in smaller cities. (The city where this happened has 9k inhabitants)
It’s also common to name supermarkets “Super [something]”, to highlight that it sells general goods instead of just produce.
With that out of the way: seriously? Nintendo going after a mum-and-dad market in a small city in North America??? This only highlights that the current trademark and intellectual property laws across the world are toilet paper - they aren’t there to defend “healthy competition” or crap like that, but to ensure megacorps get their way. Screw this shit and screw Nintendo - might as well rename their company to Ninjigoku/任地獄, bloody hell.
As I mentioned in another thread, I don’t think that he’ll be able to attract chip makers to USA. Instead I think that he’ll kick every industry relying on those chips out of USA.
Initially I was thinking on how this is such a blatantly bad idea. I don’t think that it’ll attract chip makers to USA, but instead send the industries relying on those chip makers to other countries. Because as the text says it takes years to build a chip factory, and those industries downstream simply won’t wait.
Then it clicked me - government debt. He might be trying to find new sources of income for the United-Statian government. They only need to last four years - if they ruin the economy later on, it is not his problem.
All those “explanations” babbling about Musk’s “intentions”… aaah, when will they cut off the crap???
Like. Let’s pretend for a moment that Musk was totally trying to convey “my heart goes out to you” or crap like that. It doesn’t bloody matter - regardless of his “intentions”, the gesture conveys support to Nazism, and it’s the only sensible way to interpret it within that context.
Yup, something like this - but for the honeypot, not for the legit pages.
Friday? No, it is not! The week is only at the beginn…
/me looks at the calendar
Damn, it is Friday. This week went through fast!
I’ll probably play some games, work (due to the scorching heat of the last days, I’ve been barely working), take care of my garden, and loaf around in Lemmy. My folks have been asking me to prepare some homemade pizze too, so I’ll likely spend a fair time in the kitchen.
This looks interesting. I’d probably combine it with model poisoning - giving each page longer chunks of text, containing bullshit claims and “grammar of slightly brokenness”; so if the data is used to train a model with, the result gets worse.
I was almost going to mention Musk’s gesture as an example of how context dictates meaning, but removed it from my comment. Glad to see that someone else mentioned it though - that gesture can be only understood as a Nazi salute and as support to Nazism, nothing else.
[I’m neither from Australia nor USA, but it’s clear that Australia got it right. Musk and his puppet, on the other hand…]
