Wtf is ventoy and why is nobody explaining it

Aaaand thats why all commits should be signed with your pgp key

If it costs you $30 to buy a banana delivered by fossil fuels and $1 to buy a banana that was delivered by sail boat, which would you buy?

Black people are more likely to die (due to systemic racism), so AI says: save the white person.

We saw this a lot at the height of the pandemic, which is why many nurses argued that the best triage method was random selection.

As always the problem isn't inherently that AI exists. The problem is that humans trust its output and use that to make decisions (and the laws still allow them to do it in many jurisdictions).

Computation and storage limitations

something tells me its not local

That's fine. It encourages everyone to stop carbon

The point of the carbon tax is to stop carbon.

This is how you get worse racism in hospitals

Except nuclear weapons have only been used twice in war, and IME is probably used all the time

I'm pretty sure we're just spinning out of control as we rapidly descend

Please link to the DN website, not youtube, so people can read the story at its source

On December 11, 2008, ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson said that a carbon tax is preferable to a cap-and-trade program which "inevitably introduces unnecessary cost and complexity". A carbon tax is "a more direct, more transparent and more effective approach". Tillerson added that he hoped that the revenues from a carbon tax would be used to lower other taxes so as to be revenue neutral.[13]

Wtf, how is this possible? If your carbon tax doesn't convince your biggest polluters to divest from fossil fuels, you're doing it wrong.

The whole point is that it is not revenue neutral

Wait, when did you guys get a carbon tax? And how?

Does he realize that we've had AI surveillance systems for years?

Just look at my record of being locked out of my own bank account.

False positives and nothing working became the norm like 10 years ago thanks to putting these dumb AI systems in charge of IPS and "anti-fraud" systems. This is what happens when you put AI in charge of surveillance. Its like that scene from idiocracy when the computer gives him the name "Not Sure" because its a computer.

Does that mean undocumented folks are exempt?

If yes, how can I become undocumented?

Bending over, touching your toes, and not complaining when this guy comes out from hiding in the bushes and sticks something up ur but

Mods should be banning people who downvote content that is well-cited and high effort

I haven't even seen an instance with a sidebar that explains what the downvote button is for.

It has gotten much worse in the past year, but I blame the instance admins and mods for not even trying to educate their users

I mean, if you're doing to do illegal shit (eg journalism), it is best done on a VPS. This is what basically every military and cyber mercenary orgs do.

Just make sure you only log into the box over Tor, and configure it to only pass data out over Tor. Use it as a jump box. Even if they compromise it, it should tell them nothing about you useful for attribution

Oof, who wants to vote with Regan? She basically already lost

Its just one useful tool
