The rural population isn’t the issue, it’s suburbia which is where the majority of the US population lives.
It’s not dense enough for public transportation to be viable and it’s zoned in a way that makes pedestrian traffic a non starter.
Suburbia causes a lot of problems. I understand why it exists - owning a house with a yard is nice. I personally wouldn’t want to give that up to live in an urban environment if I didn’t have to
No one does that.
Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.
Wouldn’t know, have ublock.
8gb of RAM? What year is this?
What media is an LLM going to be able to reproduce that I can’t already reproduce with a copy paste?
They are more efficient than pure ICE vehicles though in most situations.
At low speed and city driving the regenerative breaking can make a 30mpg motor into a 50-60 mpg motor.
I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.
Good. Influencers are a plague.
I’ll tell you that it’s super nice to be able to watch things with other people in the car while you are all waiting on the car to charge.
Also, you don’t have to hold a phone and the screen is better.
Do I need sources for the failed invasion of Kyiv?
Everyone knows about it.
I think the feature is cool and I’m looking forward to it personally.
Maybe they should have made it opt in, but social features like this on other platforms like discord and stream aren’t, so … eh.
It’s just so hard to see where we transition from here.
We went from a resource economy to a manufacturing economy to a service economy… And now many services are being automated. So what’s next?
I’m in favor of the automation but recognize it’s going to cause pain in the near future.
I’ve seen people tout a ‘creative based economy’, but to be honest LLMs and GANs seen poised to grab that sector before anyone in service can transition to it.
You’d hope all of this would mean an easier life, but so long as capitalism is the name of the game there is zero incentive to spread the benefits among all.
alot of ppl on fedi are privacy-oriented and focused
I’m aware. I’m just reminding you that most outside the fediverse aren’t.
Not everyone cares so much about that.
Someone knowing things about me in general is not a big deal.

Nah, it’s neither.
It’s that while I do enjoy whatever it is, if it were to disappear because I’m ad blocking and won’t sub then … ohh well?
There are a select few groups I actually care about and I donate to them (like PBS).
Anything else will either find a way or die but I don’t care which.
Yeah. This is the one that came to my mind.
Dude straight up ended his career. His band members left, label dropped him and his colabs said they wouldn’t work with him anymore.
Turns out he was a lieutenant in the oath keepers and the FBI grabbed him. Last I heard he made a plea deal and got put into the witness protection program.
He is the band and it can’t exist without him. Even if he could continue, he’d have to rebuild it from the ground up.
It’s a shame, I really Loved Demons and Wizards, the iced earth / blind guardian colab group.
… Based on some song lyrics I feel I should have seen this coming when looking back though.
Hasn’t happened to me yet, but I know it will.
Sucks; but to be honest most of the YouTube things I watch have been moving off YouTube for awhile anyway.
First Reddit, now YouTube. This year is a year of change for my Internet habits.
18 billion yearly profit last I checked.
Not enough.
Never enough.
