Diamond Hands!


RAM prices, 'mrite?
It had to download 300 of it’s buddies first


We’re all just going to ignore the ,|'/` key?


Why would Obiden do this?
Ask a human to draw an orc. How do they know what an orc looks like? They read Tolkien’s books and were “inspired” Peter Jackson’s LOTR.
Unpopular opinion, but that’s how our brains work.

I get it - Fuck Israel, Fuck Microsoft.
But if MS says “Israel lied on their TOS and said that this AI was only for educational purposes”. You’d prefer that they violate every student’s privacy in case they were secretly working for Mossad.
No?


Ok, here’s a question for you:
Let’s say Microsoft counters with “Our terms and conditions were very clear that this software should not be used in war/genocides/holocausts”
Is that good enough? Who’s responsibility is it to check? Are vendors always supposed to keep tabs on their customers or is it a good enough excuse to say “naughty customer we told you not to do that”?

Honestly, if we’re taking the stance of "lets run the government like a business*,
It’s just good marketing.
It makes people in other countries that little bit more likely to buy something made in the USA, or to visit as tourists or to volunteer to help during a natural disaster.
The example you’re referring to isn’t even in the millions - it was around $70K! Ireland spent $163 Billion on Amercian services because of a good, long standing relationship between the two countries.


Contributions to global organisations is what is known as “soft power” - for example, the only time NATO article 5 has been invoked is by the USA after 9/11
And guess what - every other country stood up and came to America’s defence. In the grand scheme of things, it’s a pretty good deal to spend a few million for the billions you get back in cooperative agreements with the rest of the world.
It seems intentional that they are aligned differently so you can identify them?
