Elon Musk Is Charging Starlink Customers Gigantic Bogus Fees Because Its Network Is Being Crushed by [Musk’s] “High Demand” for more money

FTFY

He inhabits a 80-year-old, badly abused and decomposing body and he doesn’t care about anybody else including his own family. “Sustainable” is probably not what he’s going for at this point (if it ever was).

I don’t get the buffer thing. Russia already has an immense, absurdly hard to invade territory, even if anyone had any interest in invading it.

And if Putin is successful at invading Ukraine and Ukraine becomes Russia, like Crimea… then what? They need more buffer to protect Bigger Russia?

Unless it’s not buffer against oursiders coming in but a wall against Russians leaving. That I can imagine. “You escaped Putin? Haha, joke’s on you, now have fun with f###ng Lukashenko” sounds like a pretty good deterrent.

That’s SpaSex. Porn in natural spas on Mars. Very short videos because they usually die after a few seconds but good enough for me (I don’t last that long either).

I want to believe this is true, so they won my click, but “I heard that some executives and even one unnamed CEO…” is a really low quality article

I think we are misreading the statement. “It may never be known” doesn’t mean “nobody knows”. It means “it may never be known by you because I and the whole administration are going to bury this deeper than the missing parts of the Epstein files”.

It’s a truthful statement for once. Shitty, immoral but truthful.

The Commission also failed to consider that a private jet could crash, killing a billionaire, with a net positive effect for the Planet. Private jet manufacturing can be a very green activity if those private jets are not manufactured very well.

Haha, I just read “Putin enemy” and it kind of gave away the ending

…the mushrooms he saw in the yard of his home, right before diving from the fifth floor window in his excitement to pick them up and being almost saved by a passer-by, helpfully trying to slow his fall by shooting a few bullets up at him

I hadn’t thought about this, thanks. Personally, if the messaging had been “play with this new thing, see where it helps, report where it doesn’t or where it’s actively harmful”, I would have had a much better time with it. The fact that it was “use AI for everything or else you’ll lose your job to someone else who does” created all sort of perverse incentives to use it for the sake of using it (even where it doesn’t make sense), to lie about the results and to generate more anxiety in others to keep up with your made-up achievements. I think at least some of the wasteful or even harmful ways you describe of using LLMs come from this push to use it and “be more productive” with it.

But you’re right that there are people who became overly reliant and even ruined their lives with LLMs without the tech being forced on them.

I am not a CEO and I hope this AI bubble bursts already.

That said, if I were a CEO using all possible tokens while they are heavily subsidized and tightening the purse when they get more expensive does not sound like the worst strategy to me. You get all your teams to build some expertise and (hopefully) get a sense of where the technology might have some ROI.

If only they had presented it this way (and not “AI therefore layoffs”) probably a lot of us would hate it much less now.

But he was blasted, I tell you! Roasted, totally torn apart!

To be fair, the prompt was “what shade of gold should the curtains be in my new ballroom?”

I agree. Just a comment on lab-grown meat. I’m not sure if that is going to help in developing markets. Maybe a big lab can produce meat that you can buy for less money than you’d need for a real steak in an advanced economy. That doesn’t mean that someone in the Philippines countryside can start their own meat-lab instead of raising chicken.

Hey Nasdaq, how much can I get for my compulsive gambler uncle?

I’ve seen it happen! She… lives in Canada, you wouldn’t know her

I am sure they will realize they are making a mistake and apologize 150 years from now.

I firmly believe that a woman who is in her heart a deeply racist and hateful person should be allowed to become a SBC pastor.

because if we’ve learned one thing about Bezos and his pals is that they will be sooo happy to share any additional profits with their employees!

Yes, that’s called a “marketing budget”

Not with that attitude, you can’t!
