lmao honestly thank you for reminding me I had that, I literally have used that strategy successfully in the past but had turned it off and forgotten about it 😭
I also forgot to set my hourly alarms today and they’re the only thing keeping 15 hours from passing in the blink of an eye
I mean training a model is incredibly expensive both in electricity and labor, but none of us are doing that. Is using already-trained models locally that expensive?
I don’t have a GPU so I haven’t delved into this, @yogthos@lemmygrad.ml what’s your take?
Lmao imagine the Chinese equivalent to Epstein is getting photos of people with Winnie the Pooh contraband and using that to keep them in line
I’m gonna keep plugging the recent Reitter translation of capital 1 lol, it’s much more clear than earlier translations.
Great comment!
It makes things difficult in IRL leftist circles where everyone has different exposure to theory and different abilities to engage with theory. Not understanding something is seen as a weakness so everyone has to pretend they understand it, and thus conversation ends up being really shallow and unproductive. The worst a person can do is say something “incorrect” and prove they’re not a “real” leftist.
Like, to convince people of things you have to appear confident. But to learn things you have to be humble/vulnerable. And our culture makes it difficult to code switch.

My favorite thing is that the Russian Empire had some tenuous claim to the title of the Roman Empire (Third Rome), and was defeated when the Czars fell.

FOUCAULT GET AWAY FROM THAT CHILD
Money doesn’t work for governments the same way it does for people and households. Money is the “blood” of the economy. It needs to get introduced to the economy and it needs a way to be taken out of the economy (taxes, which also function as the “incentive” for even using the currency in the first place).
Governmental debt can’t all be lumped into one mass. Do you owe the debt in your own currency or another country’s currency? In the case of the former, it’s not really debt.
Forcing countries to trade in a currency it can print more/less of at a whim is a key part of how the US maintains global supremacy.
It’s wild too because everyone I talk to is having a hard time finding work, even those actively seeking
Might depend on industry but 12 hour shifts are pretty common in the US too.
