Global News@lemmy.zip•Airbus completes record 24-hour flight with plane to be used by QantasEnglish
14·4 天前The main issue with flights is short hops when better and faster options exists. Per passenger the environmental cost is still very high, but nobody can accuse aviation industry of not actively working to cut the emissions to 0. I wish more industries invested even a fraction of resources for doing the same.

Technology@lemmy.zip•Apple’s iMessage Scanning Flagged a Video of My Friend's Dog as NudityEnglish
9·4 天前This is more of a cautionary tale and evidence for why automated message scanning and reporting is a horrible idea. One false positive can ruin someone’s life. In today’s day and age an accusation is more powerful than any proof and being falsely accused of having or distributing CSAM is effectively a death sentence.

No in fact you did not fix it.

Path of Exile@lemmy.zip•[Announcement] What We're Working On - Curse of the AllflameEnglish
1·5 天前Probably not enough to save the league. After Mirage temporary fix not only they didn’t improve the loot, but even nerfed it in some mechanics.
Will see if this will be another 10 times buffed league until we reach an okay state.

Global News@lemmy.zip•Philippines says ship hit by Chinese water cannon at disputed reefEnglish
21·8 天前It’s insane to me that water cannon usage by China in a land dispute gets more coverage by international corporate media than US comitting war crimes by bombing civilian boats.
Both China and the Philippines said this week they were working towards completing a Code of Conduct for the South China Sea by the end of the year.
Oh look, they are even engaging in diplomacy. What a novel concept.

Global News@lemmy.zip•US | Mamdani says New York City does not have legal authority to arrest NetanyahuEnglish
2·9 天前True, but it does have Permanent Observer State status. But it’s a moot argument either way as the immunity given by treaty explicitly extends to anyone invited by the UN to conduct “official business”.

363·10 天前The bill passed in the House on Wednesday by a margin of 216 to 212, largely adhering to party lines, with the exception of six Democrats who voted in favour and seven Republicans who opposed it.
Controlled opposition doing it’s thing as always.

Global News@lemmy.zip•China's 'open' AI is a terrible business, and nothing like open-source softwareEnglish
4·10 天前You either misunderstanding on purpose or have no idea how LLMs are created.
What do you understand by ‘capitalism’ and what has it to do with this issue?
Entire US stock market is held up by a “promise” that “AI” spending will payoff sometime in the future despite them being in so much debt that banks are projecting it to reach $1 trillion by 2028 just from data center construction.
Capitalists need endless money infusion to keep the “promise” alive and China’s open weight models that can be run ~130 times cheaper and at the same or better quality now break that cycle. If they can’t compete the promise is broken and investment stops and the bubble bursts leading to government bailouts that tank economy for working people.
It has everything to do with this issue.
You are contradicting yourself over and again, the only consistent thing is the positive frame of China. This is just Chinese propaganda and makes no sense.
No, I’m consistent. My world view doesn’t consist of X country is bad or X country is good. I say positive things about good things and say negative things about bad things. E.g. I’m very critical of China’s digital and metropolises surveillance, while I praise their economic socialism. You just can’t comprehend that because for you “China is bad” full stop.

Global News@lemmy.zip•China's 'open' AI is a terrible business, and nothing like open-source softwareEnglish
6·11 天前LLMs are de facto commodities as nobody can really create them without breaking existing copyright laws or enormous amount of capital. China forcefully breaking closed ecosystems is a good thing even if China’s goals are selfish. The models being open weight make them a good baseline for any other open source project which can have public good in mind.

To clarify: celebrating death or even advocating for it when it’s targeted at military personnel is allowed in this community. Violence is the primary purpose behind military so everyone is there with an explicit consent.
Doing the same for civilians/elected officials is not (even if they are war criminals).
