It’s not like I’m all that prescient or brilliant or anything…I just happen to read.

Yup.

It’s always “No one could have predicted this.”

If oems could fix their own cars in a decent amount of time at an affordable price…

Look it up. Monkeys steal drinks from tourists.

There was that time a moose got so drunk it got stuck in a tree.

You don’t have to take it away, just make it irrelevant.

Correct.

It has nothing to do with how 30% vote. We already know how they vote. It’s about everyone else getting on the same page. It’s about priorities.

The sooner more people realize that percentage is a lost cause the sooner we can start moving forward. That percentage will follow everyone else eventually. That’s what they do. They are not leaders.

Open models — which are free to download, modify and integrate by developers — make it easier for start-ups to create products and researchers to improve them. Widespread adoption will confer outsized influence over AI’s future.

China wants AI more than money. USA wants money more than AI. Long term plan vs short term plan.

Tariffs. Lack of aftermarket parts.

A big reason why EVs are more expensive to repair after a collision comes down to the availability of parts.

Same thing was said last time Trump was in power. Then 4 years of nothing.

This is just one issue of many but this is the one that gained traction. Remember Trump and Republicans first coup attempt? Remember the motel rooms full of guns?

Did we ever find out how rally goers from Alabama knew which windows on the Capitol Building were bomb proof reinforced?

Maybe in another 4 years will be the perfect time. Maybe.

Who do you think is going to win the AI data center bubble : USA with Republicans in full control or China with their green tech they’ve been building for 20 years?

For a hint look up the current price of sunshine in China and who has the off button on rare earth metals needed for modern society to function.

It’s good fun.

Naysayers contend that the astounding outlays are inflating a bubble that will end with a calamitous pop. Once that happens, they predict, the country will be covered with a lot of empty buildings, perfect for laser tag and not much else.

Found the bright side. The cup is always half full. Always. /s

Read up on what happened during Trump’s first 4 years. Then read what Xi told Biden in Peru last year.

Then you’ll know what happens next.

Yes. You are beginning to understand what has been going on.

UBI really needed to happen before AI and advanced robots. Really interested to see how China handles this.

Because Trump doesn’t need to bail out farmers in Argentina.

The recent uptick in agricultural purchases from China also comes after the world’s second-largest economy turned, at least temporarily, to Argentina for its supply of soybeans in lieu of U.S. exports.

The same thing that happened last time only it keeps getting worse for USA farmers.

Remember Dejoy?

Everyone should have high hopes for Slate EV. Especially the people that don’t want one.

Republicans voted for this. About 77 million. Republicans are in charge. Not ICE.

Fuck Republicans who are using ICE to make Project 2025 happen.
