not overrated. at least one side needs to be open.

Or you can accept that it’s a typo… and not freak out about a simple error that didn’t diminish your understanding of their comment.

Good thing no one did that?

You did.

Damage to what? There ain’t gonna be anything left of the car either way.

Factually wrong. ICE cars are much much easier to put out. Often times ICE engine fires can put themselves out. And since they burn slower anyway, it’s more likely you can escape the fire in of itself. Eg. if the fire occurs from a runway combustion in the chamber and the engine locks up starving the combustion chamber from oxygen.

That’s an extremely obscure and cherry-picked scenario to make your point.

Not really? There’s a lot of bridges on the planet… There’s lots of tunnels on the planet. There’s lots of infrastructure that is a part of our roadways or are close enough to roadways to be affected. Tunnels are actually an even better problem to discuss. Heavy metal toxicity will stick around a lot longer and cause much more problems than an ICE engine that can actually be doused out 1/10th of the way through the burn.

Thermal mass is not relevant. You don’t die from metal contact, you die from smoke inhalation.

More things between you and the fire = more protection overall… period. And you want to talk about people being disingenuous?

“Brother” putting words in people’s mouth is literally definition of bad faith.

I was not speaking for terms of “life”. Though life certainly is affected by the problems.

Lithium fires cause immensely more damage than ICE fires do. Hell just think of a benign situation like a car catch fire under a bridge. A BEV is more likely to structurally damage the bridge than an ICE fire would.

Lithium fires burn much hotter and spread much faster since it’s self-oxidizing. I’ll take an ICE fire any day since they will burn slower just by it’s very nature. I will have more protection by sheer thermal mass in between me and the firey bit (the engine) than I do would with an EV where the battery is literally underneath the entire passenger cabin.

It’s well known that BEV fires are much more destructive. The fact that they happen less often doesn’t fix the fact that it ends up being a wash all around.

Edit: Eg, more often x less damage = less often x more damage

100 fires that you can actually put out is better than 1 you can’t.

Looks like the Ryzen Pro line supports it… but the Ryzen line does not.

Simply using AI isn’t an issue… Allowing it to take over in a way that accelerates the removal of the knowledge from our pools of knowledge is a problem. Allowing companies to use AI as a direct replacement of actual medical professionals will remove knowledge from society. We already know that we can’t use AI to fuel more AI learning… the models implode. In order to continue learning more from medicine, we need to keep pushing for human learning and understanding.

Funny that you agree with me and apparently see useful discussion to have here… but downvote me even though the comment certainly added to the discussion.

Oh, and next time don’t put words into someone’s mouth, very much a bad faith action that harms meaningful discussion. I never said we should ban it or never use it. A better answer would be to legislate that doctors must still oversee, or must be the approving authority. That AI can never have a final say in someone’s care and that research must never be sourced from AI sources. All I said, is that if we continue what we’re doing and rely on AI in any meaningful capacity, we will run into problems. Especially in the context of the comment I responded to which opined upon corporation controlled AI.

FFS… they can’t even run a vending machine. https://www.anthropic.com/research/project-vend-1

Oh… and actually I would consider the 85% that it gets to be pretty poor considering that the AI was likely trained on the full breadth of NEJM information. Doctors don’t have that ability to retain and train on 100% of all knowledge of the NEJM, so mistaking things makes sense for them. It doesn’t make sense for something that was trained on NEJM data to screw up on an NEJM case.

My stance is the same for all AI. I’ll use it to generate basic code for me. I’ll never run that without review. Or to jumpstart research into a topic… and validate the information presented with outside direct sources.

TL;DR: Tool is good… Source is bad.

And the risk is that if we rely on AI in any meaningful capacity, it will eventually erode away the expertise who would be knowledgeable enough to detect the problems that the future AI may create/ignore. This assumes even best case where AI isn’t being specifically tampered with.

802.11a was 5ghz, 802.11b was 2.4ghz. Both developed at the same time.

802.11g was 2.4ghz and extended b since 2.4 took off faster than 5ghz in the market.

Since g, n onwards has been used across both bands.

Since 802.11ax we now have 6ghz.

Citizenship is already required to vote in state […] elections.

This is incorrect. The law you think you’re referencing by this is only applicable to Federal positions. Several states explicitly allow non-citizen voting in local elections. Many have no laws on the books at all addressing it. Only 15 states explicitly prohibit non-citizen voting for local positions.

https://ballotpedia.org/Laws_permitting_noncitizens_to_vote_in_the_United_States

This fact alone should mandate that the federal level maintains their own registrations. The State and Federal levels have different applicable voter rolls because the state doesn’t have the same requirements as the federal elections.

Edit: Wrong word.

Okay? And that is equally bad. What’s the point? We should be striving for less IMO.

Now realize those things are internet connected… and that video was definitely uploaded.

Nothing special about it. It’s just an aggregate/repack of the smaller torrents that broke them out by letter groupings. They’re the same exact files otherwise.

There’s been a lot of posts that say “azaz” or “aazaz” or some other variant lately. I ignore them all at this point… but I’m surprised that admins haven’t started banning them from their instances on sight… This post has been up way too long. Mods are clearly sleeping.

Yes… it’s only been 1.1 months since they’ve first issued fines under the DMA… What a long and litigated history! Definitely shows what you claim it does over it *checks notes* 2 issued fines ever.

Funny part is, DMA has been law since MAY 2023. So in 2 years… it issued 2 fines ever… less than 2 months ago.

But right! NO COMPANY EVER DARES IGNORE IT!

LMFAO. Right.

The Financial Times reported in January that the EU was planning to soften its regulatory practices around Big Tech following an increase in pressure from the US, with the new EU Commission that took office in December reportedly being more focused on enforcing compliance than issuing hefty fines.

Weird… Doesn’t sound like the commission even wants to issue fines at all!

I don’t think you understand the fact that the DMA allows fines of up to 20% of a company’s global total turnover for repeated infractions.

And how many times has that happened?

None? Great, we’re on the same page now.

The only mechanism of “enforcement” that the EU is levying is fees/fines. M$ can absorb a large amount of fees/fines pretty readily if it means complete market capture.

There is no “force” here when it’s just the “cost of doing business”.

The EU isn’t raiding M$'s headquarters and capturing board members/C-suites. There is no “force”.

I mean they kind of are? It’s not like M$ couldn’t just pay the fines and keep things as is.
