That’s a hell of a reduction.
“Stop shooting ourselves in the feet!”
So many decisions being made are very isolationist, and that never works well for the one shutting everyone else out. But who looks at history, right?
I thought it was still a Biden economy if it was floundering.
It’s actually OUR economy, and he’s supposed to help it run well. Like a casino.
The math and physics problems of SDI (Reagan’s Star Wars) hasn’t changed. I guess this is yet another lesson of history we’ve forgotten, even though so many in the political realm were around then.
Tesla has and is doing exactly what Musk said the goal was for Tesla, long ago. To spur EV sales for other competitors, since Tesla could never meet a full market demand. Congrats Elon, you not only did that, you’ve backed away to give everyone a bigger share of the market. You genius.
Oh, what? You didn’t mean to do this? Are those tears? Be a big boy and suck it up.
The max thresholds don’t mean it’s fine if it’s lower, just that at some point it becomes difficult to both detect the presence of things and there’s a limit on how much can be prevented. If we were progressing in time correctly we should be lowering these maximum levels both in the ability of detection and in the beginning sources. Especially in cases like this where either the metals are being added or are part of specific ingredients that would cost more to process and remove the metals.
And wow, they said Washington State was lower than the FDA, but that’s a magnitude less! Good job, Washington!
Ollama.com is another method of self hosting. Figuring out which model type and size for what equipment you have is key, but it’s easy to swap out. That’s just an LLM, where you go from there depends on how deep you want to get into the code. An LLM by itself can work, it’s just limited. Most of the addons you see are extra things to give memory, speech, avatars, and other extras to improve the experience and abilities. Or you can program a lot of that yourself if you know Python. But as others have said, the more you try to get out, the more robust a system you’ll need, which is why you find the best ones online in cloud format. But if you’re okay with slower responses and lower features, self hosting is totally doable, and you can do what you want, especially if you get one of the “Jailbroke” models that has had some of the safety limits modified out of them to some degree.
Also as mentioned, be careful not to get sucked in. Even a local model can be convincing enough sometimes to fool someone wanting to see things. Lots of people recognize that danger, but then belittle people who are looking for help in that direction (while marketing realizes the potential profits and tries very hard to sell it to the same people).
Monty Python makes more sense than reality. I wish a moose would bite Trump.
Why is the default taste of meat in this simulation chicken?
War, cold war, or trade war? Maybe a mix, like trade war (since that seems to be sticking around) and a proxy war that the US is using to keep the war supply industry rolling (since he had broken all other industries).
Don’t forget plenty of other pandemic potentials, especially since the US officially doesn’t recognize any problems anymore like climate or pollution or science.
“Soar”
Looks back a month to compare
Falling without style?
You’re going to get tired of winning tariffs.
Actually it does. It doesn’t put it out, but it does give somewhere for the heat to go until the reaction is finished. It just takes a ton of water, i.e. immersion if possible. Which is very similar to other large fires, where the water used isn’t to try and put the fire out as it’s too hot, but to just control spread to other areas.
He’s moderator.
How would he know? Oh, right…
Still is. Maybe even more, even though the pandemic was a perfect example to show its relevance to reality.
This would mean any liquid in plastic is a large source. Bottled water has other options, not so much the rest. I mean they could have different packaging and some do, but cost is a reason plastic is primarily used.
Don’t feel bad, it was a very subtle jab. The best part was it was at the end of a Fox News interview as they cut away, so it was what I liked to call a sarcasm grenade. Pull the pin, let it sit for a minute. Boom.
