This is about using illegally frozen Russian assets for loan. Both US and Belgium want to keep control over the funds, and terms where Ukraine only has to repay the loan if Russia begs to pay Ukraine government to accept its reconstruction funds is guaranteed to mean that Ukraine would never have to repay. Seems like performative posturing.

promoted as a response to President Lyndon B. Johnson’s war on poverty

US war on the poor has been consistently successful.

“If Democrats, my former party or current party, or however you want to look at it, ran someone who agreed with me, even in private, they would win. So, you know, maybe you should stop winning in the faculty lounge and start winning,” Karp said. “We’re apparently not supposed to say anymore, but we always said we’re cold in the streets and hot in the sheets. Democratic Party should think about that a lot.”

This is a lie. Zionist Absolutists shifted to Trump because he explicitly supported absolutist genocide. Biden/Harris didn’t want to Kent State anti-genocide protests, but their absolutist devotion to Zionist rule over the US was definitely a DNC purpose. His continued BS about “progressiveness” is the German 1930s NDSAP anti-communist supremacist absolutism gaslighting.

I don’t believe this, because it is too stupid. 2026 demand forecasts for HBM I don’t believe will materialize, as customers can’t pay those crazy RAM prices either, OpenAI can’t pay for all of their promises, demand isn’t high enough for the planned data centers, and power and labour constraints.

I don’t believe it because Micron is a brand that has value premium to it. Even if they just keep charging extortionist prices while HBM demand fantasy remains propagandized, there will eventually be worthwhile consumer demand for RAM, right? Killing the division and firing everyone in it, is Micron saying “making too much money from HBM must forever put all eggs in HBM basket”

For sure, only pure evil motives. Establishment needs to destroy Canada to pillage it. Wrap it up in war on China and Russia. Deliver Canadian slaves to Israel and US oligarchy.

Goldberg and The Atlantic are CIA/Mossad propaganda arms. There is no doubt that in some order he is entirely devoted to US/Israel supremacism. He, in his role, is a superior to Hegseth. He leaked it just to embarass the warfighter in chief.

Hegseth is an extreme evil supremacist, but this is a distraction going nowhere.

You need to start with wars are in US interest. Neocon movement is a Zionist supremacist one, where a strong US military budget is needed to donate a small portion of weapons to Israel, and to fight Israel’s wars with the rest of it.

In that vain, then 9/11 was in US interests just to galvanize harder Israel/neocon support. Where Islamic terrorism doesn’t exist for anarchy, then US support for Israel is the root cause of terrorism. That there is/was a Zionist arab coalition for the 5 wars in 5 years project to topple regimes, doesn’t make it Americans interests. Purpose was entirely to keep oil prices high to suppress competing supply to coalition. Just as US interests are war, they are also high oil prices. Much easier to get cooperative world without supporting evil, or needing to oppress communism/regimes that spend oil wealth on people.

AI is a military/political control/fossil energy project. Purpose of spending is purely for dominance ambitions, and government will (over)spend what is needed to use the datacenter time. AI budget/regulation items are already part of military funding bills. Remember, if the US does not bankrupt itself in pretense of supremacism, China wins.

Approach won’t work. Needs to offer partial ceasefire for new Ukrainian elections, and only new rulership can end war, instead of bribery gravy train to the last Ukrainian. New border lines won’t stop Ukrainian terrorism and retaliation. Only new government.

You want 2-3 phones instead of a folding phone. Light pocketable phone for actual mobile purposes. Can get a data only esim phone with voip to supplement voice/text phone, and have independent enabled data. independent charging. Backup when broken/lost phone. I suggest:

1-2 lightweight phones for mobility.
1 large possibly rugged phone for video or rugged adventures. Can be steam deck on a stand that is better setup as a dashboard. email + web tickers/discord. samsung and other phones also have a “desktop multiwindow mode”
3rd phones, can help with having 2 separate phones act as bluetooth keyboard and trackpad. Keep banking/secret stuff seperate/more secure during travel. Keep one in a locked tilt/swivel stand near bed most of the time. mod to alternate os.

2 or 3 phones is much more storage/ram and audio quality than including a tablet, with better portability options in both packing and daily use. It’s also much less $, and can leapfrog upgrades.

There is no magic conclusion that can be made from “they are just token prediction machines”. There are reasoning and search agents and other tools that can improve the final right answer token prediction. There are other ML tools and hardware innovations to make them faster, and so “think longer” before giving an answer.

These tools are likely to keep improving their “correct answer rates”, without ever achieving a “0 dumb error rate”

This is a rant about opt out not being perfect, afaiu. Firefox still provides better AI control than alternatives, in that you can choose the model, including a private one. Is this wrong?

There one of the minority of nations that are reducing emissions despite massive energy consumption growth

Mexico,UK and Australia have extensive fossil fuel resources/production. Though Australia is a global leader in solar policy that has permitted 0 electricity rates for a couple of hours per day. Mexico is extremely vulnerable to US oligarchist pressure, and UK is under direct US rulership. China should be part of the conference because it is the most economically capable of both delivering aid, and alternative energy production.

It’s not just treason to recommend submarines for US force amplification, its treason to recommend expensive boondoggle nuclear subs.

Canada is too far away to have any concerns, but you probably meant that we have a need to believe all US initiated propaganda on Russia, and we have a need to diminish it with submarines. Doing so will have massive rewards trickle down to us.

First, fusion has 0 theoretical economic potential, but there is some potential for energy gains from 2250^* + steam. Water deconstructs above this temperature into powerful HHO gas, that when ignited gains another 2500^* that will chain react with higher pressure steam to make the steam even hotter/higher pressure. Minor problem of melting all known turbine material, is avoidable through just higher volume of pressured steam.

pump ammonia! Can evaporate at PVC compatible temperature.

A very minor problem with this scheme is the mile thickness insulation needed to not lose much of the sun’s heat to space, on the trip back. A 2nd minor problem is the actual pipe section close to the sun.

So concerned that we bribed foreign terrorists to blow shit up in Xinjiang, forcing China to spend on education and job programs there.

Really absurd. Any countries that Canada should invade? There are no other countries than US who will invade us.
