All country leaders are looking at North Korea with loving eyes.

I remember how almost twenty years ago people were scoffing at the great firewall of China, how they’d restrict information and what not. Now all western countries are all “we must do this, for the children!”

It isn’t just Denmark. You see it here in Sweden, too. I’d be surprised if you didn’t see it across Europe.

I’m not really happy with any of the big political parties here in Sweden. The Greens hate nuclear power so much they’d prefer to open up fossil fuelled power plants than keep nuclear ones up and running. The Left party work really hard to get out of the EU. These are both parties I align the best with.

The Social Democrats are just these milquetoast soft-core conservatives, pretending to care about issues but turning their coats the second they get the chance. Unfortunately they always end up leading any of the left-winged government coalitions, typically with the help from the Centre who then gets to dictate all the policies, so it just ends up being a centre-right government that sells out our welfare to private interests.

It’s been like this for well over a decade at this point. Useless bunch, the lot of them.

Windows does a poor job at faster access.

The AIs we want vs the AIs we got. :(

My work computer has 32 gigs, it’s the only computer in my home with Windows on it. If I sit with teams and a browser open it’s sat at 12,2GB.

Lfmao. Good luck running Windows 11 with that.

I love Adrian Tchaikovsky’s books, but the Shadows of the Apt felt pretty slow to me. I’ve read through the first three books (I think) and I don’t remember much other than the setting being neat. Haven’t read Echoes of the Fall at all.

Highly recommend the Children of Time series, the third book in particular gets me sobbing every time. The Final Architecture was great too, and I enjoyed Cage of Souls.

I know. It’s how what China and the Soviets had wasn’t communism. A relatively small group of people climb up top and ruin everything, as they always have.

This was my initial reaction too. I am making the assumption that less than ten still means not zero.

I rarely leave reviews so I’m surprised that 50% of all releases even see a single one.

But you know that capitalism is so good because the free market ensures that there’s so much variety and choice in quality and innovation.

When I read “injured hammerer” I initially read hammer, which made me think of an ARK Survival Evolved bug from years back. This was more unhinged though.

Regardless; vehicles, I believe, are basically just dinosaurs without a lot of the dinosaur-ish abilities, as far as the code is concerned. At least that used to be the case. When rafts were initially implemented, they’d forgotten to disable the hunger functionality on them, because over time your raft would starve to death.

Only if it’s for eating later.

Given that his cars break from rain, and his rockets always explode, I wouldn’t put much stock in these, no.

What is even the point of these robots? Like, will he provide the operators as well? Do I have to employ someone to work my robot? Am I supposed to use a robot as a proxy? I don’t get what’s being sold.

It’s not just a writing quirk — it’s a blatant signalling of poor ethics.

I’d forgotten that he’s not Ben Shapiro.

I think the blood in the muscle itself is probably included but likely not the blood in the chambers.

He looks like he’s been practising to that Hitler video for a long time. The likeness is impressive in the worst way possible.

Thus you get a piece of software that no one really knows shit about the inner workings of. Sure you have a bunch of spec sheets but no one was there doing the grunt work so when something inevitably breaks during production there’s no one on the team saying “oh, that might be related to this system I set up over here.”

I was in charge of an AI pilot project two years back at my company. That was my conclusion, among others.
