Are you seriously suggesting companies live and die by the free market?? Those poor failing companies need taxpayer bailouts.

The norm for tech companies was to continue to burn cash after IPO for years and years to capture market share and worry about monetization later.

The EU is establishing their own alternative to Visa and Mastercard. I wonder if they give the US the finger and let Cuba process payments with them.

Thank you. People are so incapable of nuanced takes.

Yeah I cancelled after that nonsense. I wanted to leave discord entirely for stoat/fluxer but none of my groups would budge unfortunately.

The West handicapped Ukraine’s ability to strike Russia until they developed their own domestic weapons program.

Yeah, the chaos in the Sahel, the war in Ukraine, the US-Iran War, tension in the Caribbean are all linked directly or indirectly.

Most companies can’t eat a half billion dollar loss so who ends up paying this?

Taxpaying proles will foot the bill somehow.

Elliot Hulse was another similar surprise. From weightlifting and mentoring kids to “Trump is your daddy.”

You have to spend a multiple of a smart TV and buy a commercial TV (as in the type of TVs businesses use for display) to ensure a dumb tv if you can’t lobotomize it yourself.

If one were to do this in Minecraft, one should be aware that there may be ALPRs in the parking lot often capable of facial recognition, overt and covert in store cameras capable of facial recognition and bluetooth trackers to pinpoint peoples’ exact location as they move through the store.

I just tested it. It stores a cookie when you disable duck.ai and Search Assist but no cookie corresponds to them being enabled. Perhaps you might have cleared cookies?

Nenjamin Betanyahu might just be interested in 69,420 t-shirt orders from Kash.

Those hamberders and old age will catch up to Trump any second now. He’s already had a mini-stroke on national TV. Putin is 7 years younger and is health conscious to the point it was memed on, But unlike Trump, Putin seems to know he’s in over his head and is looking to contain fallout from this invasion. Dr. William Spaniel thinks ‘Putin is done’ talk is overblown though acknowledges things don’t look great at all for Putin in Ukraine or domestically.

Chinese models are really good. How you use them depends on what your goals are. If you want something on par with Claude or ChatGPT, you need to go to Deepseek or Qwen’s website. You can also find these models on openrouter. If you want a local/small model, then get ollama and find a model in the repository. You could also get anythingllm or LM Studio and get models from within the app. There’s also huggingface.

Since you asked about safety, deepseek on the official website does collect info and there was a time some of that info was leaked but you can get around that using something like openrouter. Note similar things happened to ChatGPT and Meta AI. There is also the potential for bias (there was a time people were spamming their Deepseek Tiananmen Square responses – personally, it just would not process my query) but Grok has that same issue.
