What needs to be remembered with the pedotator (thanks stumu415@lemmy.zip, I love it) is that his handlers work for the largest arms manufacturing companies / country in the world. Destabilizing shit is profit. Glad to see more and more of the world not putting up with the crap.

Ditch 'NATO' (It's dead Jim) military spending requirements via % of GDP, Europe just needs enough the fend off a Russia that's mostly spent on Ukraine (which should be heartily supported) for a few years until Putin inevitably gets defenestrated.

Two years of un-neutered Trump was enough to finally break Pax Americana, I guess we're moving towards Pax Sino or whatever it gets called. Sure would be nice if the middle powers got together and headed that off. Much as I like the concept of the U.N. the veto powers hobble it as a true vehicle of international unity, maybe everyone should join the EU?

Here's hoping the Dems actually keep the cheeto clown tied up in serious litigation and red tape for the next two years and the demented fool doesn't get to release the nukes. Actually effective impeachment sure would be nice. Doesn't he look tired?

    Been using this recipe (serious eat is my goto) in a (big, oblong) air fryer that only does 210C, so you have to par bake it on baking paper for ~ 6 min before toppings. Comes out as good as delivery pizza (so not as good as it could be, but I no longer have a normal oven). The food processor thing works surprisingly well, but you have to be careful in timing, too long and it gets super sticky and annoying (equivalent to over kneading I guess), pull it when it's in the ball phase (like 12 seconds) and knead a bit manually with flour, divvy into balls and fridge for a few days.

    Now I'm going to experiment with cast iron and/or the Weber, thanks for the inspiration.

    ASI (artificial super [as in beyond human] intelligence) has been a research (and SciFi) topic for decades. Check out 'Person of Interest'for an easily accessible and somewhat prescient (in places) version.

    The tech bros redefined the language to their advantage. LLMs barely pass the Turing test (but they do, in certain circumstances, where predicting the next word works)

    Cheeto in Chief has no clue and a criminally uneducated populace (democracy requires education), even first pat the post.

    Actual ASI is probably at least one and likely a few significant AI theory advancements away (but not that many years), and then it can self improve, which is the scary thing. The last thing we want is psycho/sociopaths in guiding that transition.

    This is the first time a company has come to market warning of “catastrophic or existential risks to humanity”.

    Yeah, they're trying to IPO. Tell your friends, tell your coworkers, complain to your pension fund and politicians. Not a good investment. Literal scam.
