Yeah, I hope that the renewables will continue exponentially… I agree that the growing share of renewables in the mix is awesome, but in the end what matters is each ton of CO2 emitted. And we’re not going in the right direction :(

What frustrates me is that China is indeed leading so much technological development on energy, but the amount of coal being burnt is just not budging… Please, China. Make the transition already.

Ah yeah, I thought he was drafted. Thanks!

Thanks for reading more carefully than me!

I can’t find anything on Walter Hallstein and Adolf Heusinger being nazis or committing war crimes. Looks like the former was an academic drafted in the army and the latter a high-ranking officer who began his career before the nazis.

I get that Heusinger can be seen as complicit (he must have known for whom he worked and didn’t quit), but what about Hallstein?

I love to see Meta lose, but I couldn’t care less that “legacy media” lost ad revenue. This money should be paid to the public for being targeted with illegal privacy practices.

I feel like we’re skipping steps… This kind of tech is incredible and has huge potential. But it needs vast amount of energy and we’re making the planet uninhabitable by the minute. If we first developed tech to have clean energy, I would be overjoyed. Here I feel mostly dread.

Ah dang. :( Thanks for the heads up, I thought I found something nice…

I switched to Deezer!

Is that what they did? It’s a legitimate question, I’m not finding info online.

Yeah, I guess you could realign it without retraining the whole thing! Dunno what would be the cost though, sometimes this is done with a cohort of human trainers 😅

Even though it’s magnitudes lower than comparable models, Deepseek still cost millions to train. Unless someone’s willing to invest this just to retrain it from scratch, you’re left with the alignment of its trainers.

Some people use quotes for emphasis, though. So, not sure if this faculty’s on our side.

That’s an overall accurate analysis, but more leftists have dropped out than centrists. A number of centrists refused to drop out, leading to far right seats rather than leftists.

Are the US and EU late, or is it a deliberate business decision from EV car manufacturers to aim for bigger and luxury cars because they make more profit?

Of course. And I’ll continue to do so as long as advertisement is detrimental to my online experience. If it wastes my time by forcing me to watch an ad before a video, if it distracts me from reading a text because of animations, if it tries to scam or shock me, I’m better off blocking it. I’m not against advertisement as communication that a useful product or service exists, I’m against advertisement abuse and greed.

I’ll happily pay for, donate to, or otherwise support services important to me that need and deserve it.
