I am not going to suggest, encourage, applaud and condone arson as a protest, because that is illegal.

The people in that thread who complain and threaten that they are Seriously Considering not trusting Microsoft any more unless they shape up immediately very soon...

If they had any threshold for when they would pass judgement or take any action to switch to alternatives, it would have been passed long ago.

They are just whining until they get distracted and forget about it. They will make the exact same noises the next time something like this happens. And the next, and the next...

Norway

General checkup: 2-3 weeks waiting time, cost 120-360 NOK (~20 US gallons)

Broken arm: Trip to ER, waiting time 0 minutes to 4 hours depending on pressure. Travel costs are reimbursed. Cost 0 NOK. (0 inches of coin)

Eye surgery: Few months waiting time. Travel costs reimbursed. if it was a surgery that was necessary to prevent severe handicap, cost is 0 NOK. If it is surgery to just remove the need to wear glasses, you'd have to pay the thing. Roughly 35000 NOK (3800 Fahrenheit)

I don't get the impression you have been fully informed of the purpose of the homework.

Here are a range of estimates of AI data center water use for California, based mostly on simple fundamental physics of converting energy use to water use for cooling. I did these calculations and then, perhaps appropriately, checked and explored these estimates using four AI models

He guessed, then asked the sycophant machine to tell him he is a smart and clever boy.

To illustrate his point he used a nightmare-inducing AI generated image with talking headless birds and water flowing uphill into both ends of a tube.

They are pushing the "so powerful it is scary" arms race angle. Give us money so our country build God first, see.

The actual fear of "so useless and expensive it is scary how much people are trying to adopt it" doesn't encourage investment.

Does this also mean that my calculator with googly eyes glued onto it isn't eligible for the Nobel Prize in physics? This is discrimination!

I am just astounded as to how they manage the architecture + understanding + optimization + maintenance context.

They don't. They fuck it the shit up. While AI huffers will not hesitate to tell me that actually a hypothetical blabla bla blabla, I have yet to see an agentic coder make something that holds up to reality, safety, reliability, or maintenance.

I asked my cat and it didn't understand youe question.

Asking it for guidance on distancing myself from human connections faster, and eroding critical thinking skill to the point of not remembering why I needed it in the first place.

My life goal is to not be able to maintain a relationship or even interact with someone who tells me I am wrong.

If I have some time to spare, I'll use it to convince myself that reality itself is incorrect and I have a novel theory to disprove gravity.

This pickup truck can accelerate to thirty thousand pickup trucks per hour, and fuel efficiency is one quarter quarter quarter toy pickup truck per pickup truck.

Maybe if we tricked them into saying, like, "as heavy as a three hundred kilogram box of bricks"

I am not so sure. You spent some effort here to signal yourself.

Okiedokie. I don't like you, if that makes you feel better. ❤️

Distributed Death of Self Attack

Inaction is still an action. Not improving the world around you is a choice to accept it. You need to choose your battles, of course, but choose none and I will judge you accordingly.

Right? I was expecting to see beige CRT monitors on the desks here.
