Re: The AI flop and the end of the Silicon Valley tech orgy

Not arguing that it is impossible, rather not too simple. Picking fruits varies from low height plants, bushes, trees. Gathering olives requires a different technique compared to gathering walnuts or tomatoes. Also, the robot/AI would have to be able to visually recognise the ripeness and the timin...

Re: The AI flop and the end of the Silicon Valley tech orgy

I'm still hoping for my AI-powered vegs and fruit-picking tractors if I get to have my own farm one day. I mean, I'm not saying it won't have any use. AI seems to excel at averaging down tasks, so it will probably be useful for tasks that any dumbshit could do. Like making a robotic hand reach out a...

Re: US Politics Megathread

What's the biggest general worldview thing? Dunno how I could even talk about this. I guess some sort of modernised Spinozian view that all being is connected and reacts to itself through each of its 'terminals', but being is also at war with itself in every way. I've also come to think that matter...

Re: European politics

I used to have 1k up and 1k down with fiber. But now I am happy for my 150up/down, cos I really do not want to pay for the super internet, that I have no use for anyway ;) I pay about 8 euros for 1gpbs down/up And they've been rolling out 10gbps in some cities here for 10€ https://i.imgur.com/RMlHr...

There's a good chance Trump will end up behind bars either before elections even take place or after. https://i.imgur.com/RSzpqkh.png The lawsuits with the hush money and with the fake electors are already resuming and some accomplices have made deals with the prosecutors https://i.imgur.com/UO3Jrs9...

Re: Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Well let's say Harris wins the White House. This would already be a pivotal moment, as she already started putting out some signals that made Israelis scowl. I think if she gets in the seat she'll make American support conditional on Israel stopping the war in Gaza and taking steps towards creating...

Re: Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Iran is too chicken to try anything, that's why they use proxies. But once the mindshare shift takes place in the USA in sync with the demographic changes (ie younger generations not giving a flying fuck about Israel, check the polls), those neighbours that Israel worked tirelessly to piss off for d...

Ok, sure, how would Trump being elected change any of that though?
It won't. Too late for that, he can't simply stop the irreversible flow of demographics in a certain direction.
But he can at least try to gain political capital off selling the illusion of 'saving Israel from a sure fate'.

That Israel will eventually disappear as a state, as its position in a hostile region will become untenable once US demographics change and the next generations of Americans will not be majority white.

Hmm, maybe we have very similar forecasts in terms of where things are headed, though he probably thinks that outcome would be negative.
That's where we diverge
