It's not purely electricity-based, your greenwashing statements are based on a false premise/assumption [0][1]. Secondly, Sweden is an exporter of electricity to the EU, the huge undersea transmission cables are for selling el

What's the issue with non-detachable bottle caps? It markedly reduced the littering of bottle caps I used to see in Sweden, no idea what's the issue with that.

All steel production is pushed out while the EU still produces some 10% of all global output? Sweden has been researching and deploying technologies for foundries to not rely on fossil fuels for steel production (since steel is a major expo

Nothing important like digital rights, environmental issues (pesticides, nitrogen levels), harmonising trading so every member-state can compete as equals through the whole EU/EEA market. Only useless bureaucracy which you don't g

Production is good but not great, The Diplomat is quite melodramatic going too much into soap opera territory. Money Heist is completely a soap opera. Not saying that those aren't good productions but they aren't on par with what

Overwatch is a objective-based game, and like Valorant is a "hero shooter". Apex and Fortnite are battle royales. I think the closest I got was The Finals but still class-based, so reminds me more of Team Fortress. I loved playing

Are there are any FPS shooters on the genre of UT (or even Quake3) but modern, not remasters? I've been missing a lot the frenetic gameplay of those, used to play a lot of UT at a decent level but nowadays I only see tactical FPSs or t

I recommend reading "In the Swarm" by Byung-Chul Han, and also his "The Crisis of Narration"; in those he tries to tackle exactly these issues in contemporary society. His "Psychopolitics" talks about the manip

The systems are so different there's no product to sell, it's a whole system of healthcare that permeates through society... You can't sell a national-level system of healthcare as a product, it's done through policy.

It's worth the cost if it's your child or relative being killed by a car, these regulations don't make a car 2x costlier than the USA so it's ludicrous to start with that assumption.

BTC mining on GPUs haven't been profitable for a long time, it's mostly ASICs, GPUs can be used for some other altcoins which makes the potential market for used previous generation GPUs even smaller.

You gotta expand on that because it sounds ludicrous.

If making infra means designing their own silicon to target only inference instead of more general GPUs I can agree with you, otherwise the long-term success is based on how cheap they can run the infra compared to competitors. Depending on

Through my work I have access to Google's, Anthropic's, and OpenAI's products, and I agree with you, I barely touch OpenAI's models/products for some reason even though I have total freedom to choose.

It's capital that can force markets to exist but without the public to consume it's just wasted capital if value doesn't materialise. The crux of the whole AI boom is exactly how much value it can materialise given the capita

They do create bullshit jobs in finance by propping up the system when it's about to collapse from the consequences of their own actions though. Not that I believe they should allow the financial system to collapse without intervention
