They’re not at all above criticism. The thing is all we have in the way of criticism is article after article of misinformation born from either technical ignorance or deliberate misrepresentation of the facts. None of which stand up to a moments scrutiny, much less “prove” anything.

On the more innocent side of the scale, you’ll have people chastising Proton over negatives that are entirely out of their control, and exist because they have to when operating as a public email provider. Then those same people will point people to alternatives like Fastmail or Tutanota that have all the same problems, but are less transparent about it.

Like if you want to make an argument against public email providers as a whole you can surely do so, but so far there’s really no evidence that Proton is anything but as good as you are reasonably going to get if you do decide to use one.

Because proton not only accepts people on blacklists as deserving to be there with no way to appeal, despite you know, things

You’re going to have to elaborate or rephrase this because I have no idea what you’re trying to say here

they also removed like thousands of people that the US government said they were suspicious of they sent them a list and they suspended all their email accounts, no appeal nothing. Based on the word of the United States government, a famously untrustworthy source. I say that as United States citizen.

No they didn’t.

No, it isn’t.

The M9 was when phones absolutely peaked. It’s all been downhill since then.

Easy there Pickle Rick you might cut yourself on that edge lol

Big cities that still have live DJs mostly.

Many Pizza Huts do hire their own drivers.

Big tech are the ones behind the age verification push. Linux wouldn’t become illegal, only the distros available to end users would be.

You can’t run anything like a frontier model on a self hosted solution. To get anywhere close you’d have to spend thousands of dollars on hardware which obviously isn’t free, or even a viable solution for the vast majority of people, let alone these students. And the quality of output you’d get from a model running on off the shelf consumer hardware like a MacBook is much more noticeably AI generated and trivial for AI detection tools to flag.

they’re here to stay. Cat’s out of the box.

People keep saying this as though it’s true. The odds that this current era of free and ubiquitous access to these frontier LLMs lasts forever are pretty slim.

You’re basing that on what exactly

heat the water a little bit to cool the stuff it needs

No. Heating the water a little bit would not be sufficient at cooling what the datacenters need to cool. You have to heat the water a whole hell of a lot.

It takes high salaries just to get people who want to do PCI compliance work

I don’t recall being asked to. The question was “Is there any research on this?” And I answered the question lol.

Now that you’ve been made aware of the research done on this you can go look it up. Just Google “Infrasound NIH” and I’m sure you’ll figure it out from there.

There is a lot of research on this. Exposure to this level of infrasound has negative effects on anxiety, the ability to sleep, and even cardiac function. Those who experience the level exposure associated with living close by to these datacenters can start to experience negative effects on their hearts ability to contract properly after as little as one hour. Take into account these people are exposed to this every hour, hour after hour, for years if not the rest of their natural lives.

And not only that but a frankly shocking change in tack given her roots in AI.

It’s important to note that two letter domains are generally reserved for country codes and would require a country for them to be provisioned.

Do you live in the United States? If so the only reasonable option for a router at this exact point in time is to run your own using opnsense or PFsense. You can buy an x86 mini pc with with a couple high bandwidth NICs and it’ll do the job

I mean I agree to an extent but also of course he would say that. Him saying this means less than nothing.

Fire trucks will gladly push a Waymo out of the way, but an ambulance doesn’t have that kind of horsepower, not to mention the fact that purposely colliding with another vehicle with a patient in the back is a great way to be sued and probably lose your qualifications
