    Given their AI ambitions, a solution could be building data centers in multiple locations to avoid overloading any one region’s power grid. It would be technically challenging, but it may be necessary, Russinovich told Semafor.

    “I think it’s inevitable, especially when you get to the kind of scale that these things are getting to,” he said. “In some cases, that might be the only feasible way to train them is to go across data centers, or even across regions,” he said.

    Pretty interesting!

    Some KTMs have settings that can be adjusted via the screen like ABS (turned off for offroading) power settings etc...

    So if you have a screen might as well add navigation to it

    It was mainly more money for Ukraine, but now they're saying stuff about FEMA spending money on illegal migrants or something along those lines (which is not true)

    Agreed, especially because lobbyists will get shit that otherwise wouldn't pass to be bundled in the bill. One example is the infrastructure bill and all the non-infrastructure related stuff they put in there

    The reason they voted against it is because alot of other things where bundled in the bill. Congress should put forth a bill for FEMA funding only so that they could help people

    Yeah your right, my only concern is them having a captive market which would allow them to jack up prices but right now there are lots of competing companies so it shouldn't happen withing the next decade

  • If Palestine got to have its own recognized (by everyone including Israel) and sovereign state, what other different current nation would it most likely resemble?

    It depends on how that country is formed, and what happens to Jerusalem.

    If Israel withdraws from west bank and Gaza, and truly allows them to be a sovereign state(s), with their own navy, air force, ground force, then the US would step in via the UAE. I would also guess that they will get lots of money coming in from other Arab governments because they all want influence in Palestine, in addition to money from Arabs as people.

    In terms of government, if elections are held I assume Hamas would win (in Gaza and wb). In which case countries like Egypt will start being less friendly towards Hamas than they are right now, because they can be seen as a viable government. The reason Egyptian government would dislike Hamas is because they are a spin-off of the brotherhood, which the sisi couped in order to gain power. Generally, Egyptian government is very afraid of the brotherhood and will root them out wherever possible because they are often the only party (other than police and military) that may be in a position to rule the country.

    In terms of long term economy and how the government would function I have no idea. Hamas controls an area the size of a small town, and the Palestinian authority has no real autonomy, its not even allowed to collect taxes. My guess tho is that it will resemble south Africa in terms of infrastructure (garbage).

    I don't think it will collapse like Libya and be run by criminals, but it won't be as prosperous and safe as many of the Gulf countries.

    Basically I'm talking out of my ass, there's really no way to know

    Love findroid, it just feels good. Only disadvantage is no random play/shuffle but other than that I like it very much, it's nicer than the og jellyfin app/web wrapper

    In terms of weapons and cyber security israel is one of the top nations. Their weapons are 'battlefield tested' ( on innocent Palestinians), and their cybersecurity is pretty strong. In addition to that, they will always do what the US says, should the US abandon them they will immediately turn to another country to support them, now this country has top us technology.

    Also they have nukes, so you must keep the country safe and stable. If Israel is invaded by the surrounding countries, suddenly Egypt has nukes, and will no longer need to rely so heavily on us support.

    You can also make thermite and use it legally in every state! Although you do need certification to transport, so if you don't have one just mix it on site

    Something similar to what you are describing is called hot metal forming where you heat up a metal tube ( like aluminum) and then pump it full of gas. I don't have any experience with this method, I only learned about it theoretically, but some of the parts can get pretty complex.

    It's mainly used in aerospace, but I've also heard of it being used to make some HVAC stuff
