It's a sensor relying on image recognition, which is only as reliable as the image recognition software. The more clever software tries to be, the more potential failure states that exist.

Unfortunately, at times it feels like that is the only thing that would stop that death cult. However, I would hope instead all countries dropping support for israel and sanctioning them until they stop would be enough.

They're arrogant because of all the backing they've received from powerful countries over the years. They need to be humbled.

An incredibly bad company. As impressive as low earth orbit satellite internet is, it's impractical to keep launching so many satellites every five years just to provide internet inferior to wired in all but niche cases. This is their strongest commercial case.

The company benefits greatly from government contracts paid out instead of properly supporting NASA. NASA could've been tasked with developing reusable rockets, but it is intentionally hobbled for political purposes.

Even with things working in SpaceX's favor, it gets saddled with the neutron star known as xAI under twitter/x, competely outweighing any possible profit by far.

Apparently investors also separate money from money because tesla's valuation makes absolutely no sense from a money perspective either with a PE ratio of over 300.

What you're describing aren't investors, but gamblers benefiting from a rigged market.

They're still planning on making a new Xbox? Sometimes I forget there's an Xbox console anymore.

How much do executive payouts, lobbying, and marketing costs take out from those profit margins?

I tried scanning one of those digital coupon things they print on paper and the employee was called over three times in that one transaction.

Absolutely. I have to have regular conversations with my manager about career progression because in the surveys they highly encourage people to take, people said they felt stagnant in their careers. Well now we have to pretend to have a productive conversation on career progression while the stagnation remains, but managers have to come up with an excuse why so-and-so didn't get a promotion during performance review time (usually it's "you're so close, but we're looking for more X" where X can change to whatever is convenient to deny a promotion).

On top of that, they now ask us how we use AI in our daily work because they're desperate for "AI wins".

OpenAI has published a report

Into the trash it goes.

Election interference only matters sometimes, I guess.

They don't call it penis, they call it pizzle instead.

I love dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, all of it. I don't get the elitism over a matter of taste.

 

I saw this post titled "Scratch a anti-harm reductionist and a fascist bleeds" (https://lemmy.world/post/33320759)

I commented that "harm reduction" apparently means sending billions in weapons to israel while they commit genocide and shutting down campus protests speaking out against that genocide. I said that seemed pretty fascist to me.

Within an instant, they downvoted my post and banned me. Guess it's my fault for posting in a circlejerk community, but I'm still scratching my head on how that makes me a tankie. Something tells me this mod would be calling in the tanks to suppress any dissent if they could.

 

Context: https://lemmy.world/comment/14613536 Screenshotted context just in case:

A user claims that the killing in Palestine stopped under Biden now. I point out that biden had full-throatedly supported the genocide for over a year. A mod deletes my post and says that biden didn't "state" (keyword here) full-throated support for genocide.

I counter by saying I consider sending billions in support of genocide counts as full-throated support for genocide. I also point out that I didn't say Biden stated his support for genocide and that he didn't need to outright state it because actions speak louder than words.

I receive a temp ban for that counter and the mod adds a response where they claim the weapons were "provided for defense from Iran, full stop." which sounds to me like actual misinformation because how the hell does bombing hospitals in Gaza defend Israel from Iran? I'm not bothered by their stupid opinion, but I am bothered that they are enforcing it through moderation.

I ran into a similar moderation problem on the Political Memes community also on .world, but I didn't bother making a post here for that because that's just a dumb meme community and I was better off just blocking it, but now this is concerning a world news community and it's awful to see something like this happening in a community that's supposed to keep people aware of the news.

But hey, maybe I'm wrong and it actually is misinformation to say it's full-throated support of genocide to send billions in weapons to a country using those weapons to commit genocide. Please let me know what you think!

 

Not entirely sure what this is, but it was revealed during the Jackbox collab on Calli's channel. Reveal on June 18th 8:00PM PDT apparently!
