Having people with that level of access without some form of two-person-control is already a sign of incompetence.

What aspect of an orbital data centre makes it more environmentally friendly than a terrestrial one?

> 2. The cost of orbital datacenters will approach the cost of terrestrial datacenters (in $ per token terms)

That is one wild, batshit insane assumption. So much so that I did not bother to read the rest of your post.

Just remember to pack a bottle of spare magic smoke incase something leaks!

Which cars?

Did you read the full article?

The whole point of the manual cleanup duty is the meticulous mapping of MOOP. This information is used by the community to learn and improve for next time. This has resulted in measurable improvement over the years, despite the event growing massively in size during that time.

I feel a big commercial machine that cleans the site up in a couple of hours will result in a community that does not espouse the 'leave no trace' principle. Because why would you care? A big machine is going to clean it all up anyway.

Apply Occam's Razor to your statement and try again.

The US is 100% without a doubt responsible for the shitshow we're in now.

We had a good thing going, and you fucked it up.

I bough a unifi access point on the ubiquiti store today, and on checkout they slapped me with a €5 "memory surcharge" on checkout.

Ofcourse you can steal a charity! So long as it's not _his_ charity.

Have you ever worked on a legacy codebase with actual good code? I struggle to see the difference between your predicted future and today's reality when it comes to working with legacy disasters.

There used to be a whole industry centered around paying someone to farm gold on your WoW account.

This is such a solved problem though (from my experience). Usually googling the location/quest/puzzle name gets the result you are looking for first time. No need for copilot.

Maybe it's just the type of games I'm playing, for example "how to get nyrulna" in google gives me my answer in the first search result.

Boy do I have a bridge to sell you.

Slate doesn't exist yet. So until that happens, we should bot include it in converstions like this.

And we can make the sea pay for it!!

The Sequel Trilogy were the original 1970's movies, which are arguably not the stinkers you are referring to.

According to the rumour they want to keep Jar-Jar but get rid of the Ewoks.

Take a look at Kia's 'PBV' concept, and the new PV5 van. It's a skateboard chassis with all the EV gubbins in, with a body and cabin that bolts on. Allows for extremely modular vehicle construction.

Superfastmatt did something similar with a very very old Jag... (Sans the FSD)

His channel comes highly recommended for anyone even remotely interested in cars by the way.

This is probably what Apple is going to do, soft limit the battery to not charge to 100% yet still report 100% in the UI. Many android devices and laptops have such a setting these days already. For some it might not be nice to see 80% after a night's charge, hence the UI fakery I'm suggesting.

My old 2018 Hyundai Kona EV did the same thing: officially it was a 64kWh battery, yet when you count the cells they come out at 71kWh or something. They built in some margin to extend battery life as capacity declines. Coïncidentally this also meant that regen braking worked even when the battery was 100%. The car is at 110,000km and the BMS still reports 100% SoH.

No, you see, if it says "cheese" then I would assume it's real cheese. If it says "real cheese" I'm immediately suspicious.

I've had mine for about two weeks and I love it. It's absolutely massive inside, like a tardis. It drives like a magic carpet and it's got more than enough power for it's size. It's replacing a 2019 Hyundai Kona EV, and the ride quality and comfort is night and day. It's got a very tight turning circle so it's surprisingly nimble in tight spaces.

I have not really had the chance to properly test range, but it's not going to be amazing. It's reporting about 6.1km/kWh average at the moment, with about 50% motorway driving not really exceeding 110km/h. I'd expect no more than 350km. I rarely drive it 100%-0%, so real world (80-20) is probably 300km max. I might be underestimating the range if I do some math though! I live in Ireland, so that is an absolute massive amount of range for roadtrips. My Kona did about 6.5-7.5 depending on the season.

If you have a family, even a small one, then I reckon this is a no brainer. The price is ridiculous, and in my books it beats out an SUV in almost every category except maybe offroading.

Go test drive one!

I'm at an age where I feel the same about many things in life. Black, sleek and minimalist is so boring and blends into the background.

Just this morning I purchased these car mats for my black, korean-spec-tinted people carrier electric van:

Wait, are you living in the EU? but you are being paid, and taxed in the US? You are not paying taxes for the public services you are consuming in the EU?

My 2026 Kia EV comes with an "offline mode" in the settings, which disables all the connected features in the car, including OTA updates. I wonder if this sufficiently insulates me from their spying?

How much do you pay for health insurance in the US?

And OpenAI probably distills anthropic, who would't?

It's all one big incestuous mess. In a couple of years we'll be talking about AI brainrot.

The other day, while waiting for my kebab at the kebab shop, a kid that was also there got a lollipop from the lady at the till. She went to show her mum, and asked for her to take a picture of it for some reason.

She held the lollipop out in front of her, with her open palm behind the lolly to create a bigger focus target for the camera. This is a common trick for content creators who showcase small items (like make-up products) on camera, to avoid autofocus issues.

She was maybe 4. I was pretty dismayed when I saw that, to be honest.

I have a 4 month old, and at the moment the only screen time she's allowed is video calls with the grandparents, who are in a different country. Neither me or the wife are even allowed to operate our phones while the baby can see the screen, let alone watch tv! She turns into an instant zombie, even if I am just reading HN.

Compute has massive initial capital requirements, and a very short obsolescence window. It does not make sense to invest in compute and then not run it 24/7 at 100%.

Hardware sitting idle waiting for sunshine/wind is leaving money on the table. Especially if you can burn gas during that time and still be hugely profitable.

A table saw cut off my thumb. The saw's confession is below.
