Comment Re:SI: Subpar Intelligence (Score 1) 57

I think SI is a fine title because despite all tricks it can do, it still fails in basic ways that even idiots don't. As such, Subpar Intelligence is the title it has earned. I don't need anyone telling me about hypothetical futures because I'm talking about right-damn-now.

Right-damn-now, is ToddlerAI.

A four-year old little fuckshit who isn't mature in any way. Easily persuaded and often delusional. Can be triggered by bending over Madagascar to abuse nonsensically in an asinine-flavored sentence with little more than an educator testing integrity.

Maybe that's actually a measure of how bad the inflation is.

The electronic price price tag on the grocery store shelf is updated in HFT real-time now, tied directly to the price-per-gallon of diesel fuel at the pump.

Inflation has no fucking idea how to measure the economy anymore when it has become that corrupt.

Submission + - SpaceX Set To Receive $84.5 Billion From Anthropic In AI Capacity Payments (wccftech.com)

An anonymous reader writes: With AI giant Anthropic gearing up for its IPO, the firm has entered into agreements worth billions of dollars with SpaceX, according to documents viewed by Reuters. The revelation casts more light on both companies, following SpaceX's SEC disclosures following its IPO and the nature of the contracts which allow Anthropic to cancel the agreements with a three-month notice. The deals come as Elon Musk aggressively expands his data center capacity to bring more than a million GPUs online by the end of this year.

Submission + - California scientist emerges as possible Tylenol murders suspect (sfgate.com)

schwit1 writes: A man found dead in a church halfway across the country may have suddenly unlocked the key — quite literally — to one of America’s most famous unsolved crimes.

But although he had a successful career, working at one point for Lockheed Martin on a NASA-related project in New Mexico, Betkouski had a reputation for making unsettling comments. Former coworkers told Cooper that Betkouski spoke of how to commit a “perfect crime,” had a “history of volatility" and referenced cyanide as an ideal way to kill without detection. He also mentioned putting poison in over-the-counter medication, an especially worrisome comment coming from someone who had worked in multiple drugstores.

“It was said that Dr. Betkouski attempted to obtain some type of pills or capsules from a pharmacy in the Las Cruces area,” Cooper said at a press conference last week. “He said this would be for an experiment. For reasons not fully understood, Dr. Betkouski created a disturbance at the location and the police were summoned.”

Less than three months before Betkouski killed himself, a national terror was unfolding in Chicago. In late September 1982, seven people took over-the-counter Tylenol for their usual aches and pains. The capsules had been opened and filled with potassium cyanide, killing the people who took them.

based on what customers near individual restaurants are willing to pay..

I suppose this pricing comparison is only between McVendors, since they don't even make the same product as the restaurant next door. (The Mom and Pop restaurant down the street from McDonalds isn't a multi-billion dollar conglomerate selling custom designed addiction in a food wrapper.)

Lame to blame this on AI, but I doubt enough customers are going to tolerate some Zillow-grade pricing scam for McShittles sprinkled with food crack. A Big Mac for almost $7? I guess the measurable decline in sales based on this kind of greed is just the fine print franchise owners are not willing to talk about.

Communism has never been for the people. Just like with the fascists, communism is all about supporting the state, which is all about supporting the people in power. Politics is not a horseshoe. Politics is a ring. There is no real difference when you get to the extremes.

This, is labeled accurately Insightful while headline writers make it sound like enslaving citizens is a “curb” of inconvenience. A mere speed bump of a travel problem.

Time to grow up kids and stop pretending Communism comes in any other flavor than Communism.

..the bananas have the same taste and texture but stay "fresh, yellow and appetizing long after peeling and slicing."

Banana taste changes a lot as it ripens, which is why many people prefer to eat them more green. Or more yellow. Or in the case of banana bread, black and slimy-rotten, fermenting with flavors.

Define “appetizing”. By taste, not by color. I’d like to know how the perpetually yellow banana changes flavors.

Leftist bias in media, is blatantly demonstrated when you find all of left-leaning media across a dozen channels suddenly using and abusing the word/phrase du jour in the endless Us. vs Them political game.

And I do mean that literally. There are countless examples of them doing this. When the talking heads literally cannot speak individually and freely, it's telling as to who the real puppets are. It's also quite telling as to who holds the capacity of individual thought.

Groupthink, is what brought the left to its knees.

If the kids really want to know how bad news manipulation is, watch Good Morning, Vietnam and find the media story in there that isn't so fucking funny.

You said yourself, right here, that Fox News manipulates their audience. What is your point? Maybe "90% of media rightfully lost their grip on absolute power" because they stopped manipulating their audience while Fox News gives them a fantasy to blame for the poor state of things in this country?

You obviously only think these things through enough to support your political stance. Hell, your own mind is manipulating you.

What in the hell are you rambling on about when I refer to a movie about Government censorship and manipulation based in the 1960s? The hell does "Fox News" arguments have to do with that? Fox News as a company didn't even exist until the 1990s.

And leftist media lost their grip on delusional manipulation and control within the last 5 years. As their ratings and show cancellations proudly confirm.

Watch the movie. Educate yourself before commenting. The point being made, is encapsulated within the weapon US Government abuses every day. ALL media, is nothing more than a Weapon of Mass Distraction.

Submission + - China broadens travel curbs to encompass family of top AI talent. (business-standard.com)

schwit1 writes: That marks a broadening of existing curbs on the freedom of movement of China’s most influential tech talent — a category that encompasses entrepreneurs, researchers and executives. While not an outright ban on travel, the new requirement is likely to exert a further chilling effect on a tech sector already facing unprecedented curbs. China has restricted foreign travel for top AI professionals in private firms such as Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and DeepSeek since earlier this year, Bloomberg News reported in May, reflecting Beijing’s determination to safeguard its technology as it makes big strides in AI and chipmaking.

It’s unclear whether all those people’s families need to follow the new strictures, the people said. China is also separately implementing rules, which became effective Sept 15, for enforcing exit bans in cases ranging from criminal investigations to potential violations of the country’s industrial and technological security.

Beijing’s plan is to add relevant individuals to the list as time goes by, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing a sensitive issue. Government departments have already notified several people of the need to clear family travel, two of the people said.
