5·27 days agoAnd their service stinks
7·27 days agoThe rule of thumb is “can I have this ingredient on my kitchen?” If not then that food is ultra-processed. Of course you have to apply this rule wisely, for instance, the list of ingredients that you can have in a kitchen contains only the traditional things people used to prepare food.

Instead of using DoorDash, developers – and civilians – code up their own food delivery apps, all of which compete, fragment the market, and destroy the margins of legacy businesses. Business for Uber and other ride-sharing apps also evaporates. Instead of using Visa and Mastercard, AI agents decide to do all business in cryptocurrency, because transaction costs are cheaper. This guts traditional payment providers.
To Citrini, this is a logical endpoint for tireless AI agents that have the time and capability to optimise everything. “Habitual app loyalty, the entire basis of the business model, simply didn’t exist for a machine,” it writes.
Seems plausible /s
Hey, I’ve never seen this one, thanks for sharing! I’ll definitely watch.

My pc uses DDR2 and it runs Linux with no problem. I can even game, just not the new ones
Europe’s double standards: Ukraine and Venezuela…
That was always the plan
According to the International Energy Agency, the world’s data-crunching infrastructure is set to consume as much electricity by 2030 as the entire nation of Japan. Data centers also require enormous amounts of water for cooling—each day, a single 1-megawatt data center consumes as much water as about 1,000 people living in the developed world, World Economic Forum data suggests.
Also, goodbye stars, only datacenters and space junk now.
The U.S. Department of Defense quickly viewed biometric data and what it called “identity dominance” as the cornerstone of multiple counterterrorism and counterinsurgency strategies. Identity dominance means being able to keep track of people the military considers a potential threat regardless of aliases, and ultimately denying organizations the ability to use anonymity to hide their activities.
By 2004, thousands of U.S. military personnel had been trained to collect biometric data to support the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. By 2007, U.S. forces were collecting biometric data primarily through mobile devices such as the Biometric Automated Toolset (BAT) and Handheld Interagency Identity Detection Equipment (HIIDE). BAT includes a laptop, fingerprint reader, iris scanner and camera. HIIDE is a single small device that incorporates a fingerprint reader, iris scanner and camera. Users of these devices can collect iris and fingerprint scans and facial photos, and match them to entries in military databases and biometric watchlists.
Spectrum makes this seems a very positive way of “bringing power gaps”, but the social consequences of living nearby multiple engines running 24/7 are terrible. This video describes a "town that elon musk is poisoning "

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman hinted as much with a January post on his personal blog. Altman wrote he was “now confident we know how to build AGI as we have traditionally understood it,” adding that 2025 would be the year AI agents “materially change the output of companies.”
These guys are such a joke, but they are the ones laughing $.
I think it’s more about not paying financial compensations for their involvement in slavery and their enrichment with it. One could use the vote “yes” as a legal argument to pursue compensation.
