Something to hopefully make people think about cognitive dissonance and consider how they could change.

AI as a Fascist Artifact

Mussolini LITERALLY said that fascism could be corporatism because the state and corporations become one.

Is there literally just no preview link for you? Or does it fail in the browser?

Nuclear power could more than triple by 2060, UN agency says
Reply in thread
An 82 year long life's electricity needs provided entirely by nuclear takes an amount of fuel the size of a soda can.

The reactor meant to showcase nuclear’s comeback keeps hitting problems

Can you back up claims like that please? I don't think nuclear energy is causing Earth to copy Venus' atmosphere (exaggeration on scale of course).

I just would like to point out that China is putting up stable reactors in less than 7 years span. https://thebreakthrough.org/issues/energy/chinas-impressive-rate-of-nuclear-construction
I do think we need every egg in this basket to hatch though, and honestly our main focus should be renewables as you said. But nuclear is just so damn reliable. Besides a reactor can last 75+ years. https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/whats-lifespan-nuclear-reactor-much-longer-you-might-think
Nuclear is also incredibly energy efficient. If you were able to power 100.00% of an 82 year life completely on nuclear, the fuel needed for that is about the size of a soda can. https://cna.ca/2019/06/25/your-lifetime-used-fuel-would-fit-in-a-soda-can-want-proof/
I absolutely love nuclear, I think it's such a cool energy source. And it brings together so many disciplines of industry and engineering. But I am also a huge proponent of decentralization, and I recognize that nuclear plants are the epitome of central, state and corporate owned, need high security and expertise to run. Whereas, solar and wind once made can be community owned, individually owned, off grid, etc. I think there's pros to a multi layered approach.

Nuclear is amazing. It is absolutely one of our greatest energy sources we have, and it is green. It has the ability to be at peak operation 24/7 in 99% of weather, at night, on cloudy days, on windless days.
I think solar and wind energy is amazing and needs to be put up everywhere, but until we're there, nuclear has the ability to transform our energy use.

They are in fact the original panda. Giant pandas were named after them, in reference to them eating similar diets.

Any room can be an escape room when you lose core motor functions.
I actually don't believe DMT affects your motor functions like alcohol, but the saying holds true still!!

She also LITERALLY propped up Trump, told news outlets to talk him seriously, and encouraged people to not see him as a clown.
You know... Totally not barely controlled opposition party behavior.

Shocking... You can't vote in socialism. Unfortunately, people jerk the Nordic countries so hard they can't see they're run off imperialism, resource extraction, and the same awful capitalist system.
I'm not directing this at you BTW, I can assume you're probably a socialist or communist based on your instance. It's just sad to see libs continue to think that Europe is somehow this wonderland utopia. But it's still run by the Epstein class, many of the families there of far older influence than in the Western hemisphere.

Trump's Voter Raids Have Begun
Reply in thread
Fascism is imperialism turned inwards. All this shit we've been doing to other countries (and foreign policy is consistently bipartisan) is now coming back to us.
It doesn't matter if the majority disapprove, Trump doesn't represent the things done in the US' brightest moments, he is the culminatiom and the product of the shadows. The nepobaby of a filthy rich, white supremacist mega-landlord in NY, shaped by reality TV that glamorized the most antisocial parts of human behavior, the product of no consequences for rich people despite fucking over THOUSANDS of contactors, employees, and businesses. I could go on about Epstein, Daniels, etc.
Are you surprised this empire doesn't show off its dark underbelly proudly?

It can still get worse: Double-digit price increase expected for RAM in the New Year
Reply in thread
Yeah this is about more than llms. They're done, or want to be done, doing commerce with the plebs, the bottom 90%. Everything is for the top 10% (already make up 50+% of purchases and spending power, that stat is from 2024 so more now) and B2B.
We get the scraps of the scraps.

"My" computer? Man I haven't heard that phrase in a bit. In 2028, everything is rented now. They actually confiscated everyone's ram, even the ram from Grammy's 1995 workstation.
