Yup

Hey, you know that those we stole, we’re going to let you borrow them!

Actual insanity. This is the precursor model to LLMs.

To be honest, that’s just you parroting right wing talking points, not realising it makes you sound like a racist. France just built high speed rail too. There’s a bunch that have happened in Europe while we’ve dragged our feet with HS2. Can we blame the commies for all of them?

No one knows. Whatever progress we could have is likely to be suppressed by rich people refusing to give up on their cash cows. I wouldn’t be surprised if F1 is still going strong and America still doesn’t have mixed zoning.

I’ve talked on the shitter. I heard someone dying and asked if they needed help, they never replied, just did up their belt and fled in panic. Never again!

In the time it’s taken us to get this far. China has built a world-class rail high speed rail network. I wish our successive governments were able to see beyond the short-term.

Of course that only matters if we’re actually serious about forcing decarbonization in all sectors and not just the current method of just where it is cheaper than massively subsidized oil, so maybe we’ll see more pressure to do so in a decade or so. For now, when we’re limited principally from the amount of money we are willing to invest in building clean energy, the long wait times and low return on investment make it seem increasingly like a way to slow solar and wind’s growth, and thusly buy oil and gas a few more years of market share, which is probably why said oil and gas companies went from fighting nuclear with every add campaign they could muster in the 90s and 2000s to their current support for it.

This whole final paragraph… magnificent! Thanks for taking the time and effort to write it.

I know nuclear is supposed to underpin renewables, but I still think we put too much emphasis on nuclear.

Massive shout out to Lemmy in general. I’ve laughed a lot over the past week.

And I wanna highlight @wjs018@ani.social for being a great moderator.

To be fair, they’re saying just to be able to step in as opposed to being in control all the time like military drones.

Welcome to the club

Didn’t they block Mastodon links, how comes they’re not blocking BlueSky?

MVP!

You lot have it fucked up. There were three things that Musk bought Xitter for.

1. The dataset. He’s positioned himself that even if all else fails he can recoup some of the investment by selling that off. But if his AI endeavour is a success, it’s worth it.
2. Political power. The impact of Xitter on recent elections will be studied for generations.
3. Sycophants. Ego is the bane of mortals but for narcissists, it’s everything. He now has sycophants on tap. So much so that he may even be able to fulfill his dream for x.com making it into the WeChat of the western world.

His Twitter purchase has already paid for itself.

Bu kadar uzun sürmesi neden? Lemmy’de nihayet böylesine prestijli bir kültürün temsil edilmesi güzel. Hoş geldiniz Türk kardeşlerim.

Sorry if this is an ignorant question, but is there a difference between queer and qweer?

Deny it internet access

I would argue that what makes it good. Mastodon is only as good as you make it but you have to take personal responsibility. That’s something that people should get accustomed to taking again.

The surging popularity of the Elizabeth line, and how it encourages people to switch to public transport will be held up as another example of how investing in public transport across the entire UK will see a shift change in how people travel for work and pleasure.

Yes it should!

Where to start with this? Didn’t Google just kill adblockers in Chrome?
