80,000 tons of CO2 is better than 80,000 tons in the ocean, I guess.

I think that refers to windows that have multiple panes of glass that are separated, like .

Partially, some of the heat comes from radioactive decay within the Earth, and some is left over from the Earth’s formation.

If every one of those users uploads one 10MB file, that would be two petabytes of data. At S3’s IA prices that’s $25k/month. And people are uploading far, far more data than that.

Bonus points if you can deobfuscate it!

Yeah that’s the main problem I have with it too. It’s not okay to harm everyone who’s close to you just because you want to die.

Ah, I misunderstood. Yeah that image was just supposed to represent getting help in general, not calling 988 specifically.

That’s probably the most random reason for suicide I’ve heard.

Uhh yeah, totally! Hides AI-generated image of a scantily-clad anime girl with twelve fingers and three tits.

I’m glad you liked it! Good luck with your depression, it’s certainly a struggle sometimes.

I built a PC out of some spare parts recently, and was marveling at not having to plug a power cable into the graphics card (a 1050 Ti). The sacrifices we make for graphics quality…

Aren’t modern GPUs more in the 200-500W range? They’ve gotten very power hungry recently.

Still, hosting costs were the reason for discussing legal liability. Such a server also increases centralization which isn’t ideal.

That doesn’t solve the cost problem. Now all the traffic is going through that intermediate server, and someone has to pay for that.

Definitely one of my more controversial posts to be sure.

He speaks the truth, why be futile when you can do something with your life?

I’m tired of people ascribing any sort of intelligence to AI. It’s not thinking, it’s not seeing you as a threat, it’s just predicting a probable response based on its training data.

Seems like a reasonable donation prompt; it’s infrequent, unobtrusive, and can be easily dismissed and disabled. Some people are so sensitive to the idea of any sort of soliciting that they forget projects do need money to function.

Now that’s an interesting idea; basically external regenerative braking. Not too helpful on a highway, but I suppose it would be useful in the situations you described.
