stop all exports of kerrygold to the united states. I’m only half joking. hit us in the stomach. no more butter, no more cheese, no more beer. Those are our three favorite things in the whole world. Yes, more than oil. we can make all that stuff ourselves for way cheaper but holy shit do comfortable people love Irish dairy.
This ai deal sounds like a gross misappropriation of public funds then. There must be context I’m missing, this just sounds stupid.
Isn’t Greece still doing hella austerity because they owe Germany money or is this my America showing
For once ADHD preventing me from completing a migration is a boon, I guess I’ll move back to keepass
Alright but apart from the sugar and the fiber and the antioxidants and the vitamins and the minerals and the enzymes, what has fruit ever done for us?
Mamdani is not the mayor of Gaza or the mayor of Jerusalem and New York has a pretty full plate rn. His position on the matter is known, if you want someone to fix foreign policy look to people whose job it is to shape foreign policy.
If there was more competence none of this would have happened. Their incompetence is not stopping them from mulching innocent civilians and it is not stopping them from fucking up global trade and putting billions at risk of starvation by causing the price of energy and fertilizer to skyrocket.
A competent imperial leadership would have perhaps still had the desire to wage full scale war on Iran, but competence would have led them to do at the very least a cost-benefit analysis and conclude that continuing to leverage soft power would have been more in line with the imperial goal of continued global hegemony. This administration’s actions belie a deep seated desperation that is unnecessary and unbecoming. Precisely because, I suspect, they are all painfully aware that they are not qualified for the positions they have found themselves in and that they are doing a terrible job.
well I guess parking warships on Indian soil beats parking them at the bottom of the black sea
What pisses me off the most about all this is all the crimes against humanity. But after that, the thing that pisses me off the most is the sheer incompetence. You didn’t think they would hit back? Like you SERIOUSLY DID NOT CONSIDER THAT THEY ALSO HAVE BOMBS?
What is an AI employee gonna do with beer, pizza, or airline tickets? Sure, little freaks like Musk and Altman would love a world where its them and n billion chatbots and not a single living soul, but our economy is tooled for making things people need. You might be able to retool it into a paperclip machine that only makes compute and energy but it would bother a lot of very deep pockets in the process.
The plot point from the deus ex series that sticks out to me was in Human Revolution where they started converting warehouses into concentration camps, but what do I know?
That would make more sense if Greece and OpenAI weren’t competing for “most money borrowed without a real plan.” I didn’t see in the article who was paying for it (maybe a comprehension fail on my end) but I suppose it doesn’t really matter because both OpenAI and Greece carry hundreds of billions in debt.
