As someone with a BL P2S I really appreciate other people helping with this fight. I won’t buy another BL product but I’d like to keep using the one I already have.
The object of a system of authority is order, not justice. Justice matters only after injustice sufficiently compromises order.

Mint has worked fine with my 1060, 2060, and now 3060.


It’s not enabled by default.


Since we’re whipping out credentials, I’ve been in IT almost 30 years and I can tell you it’s not going to work like that.
I’m not the person you were replying to but I’ve also been in tech since 1996 and lots of things have worked just like that. All successful technology starts off barely functional and improves over time until nearly all members of it’s intended audience can successfully use it.
As an example in 1996 setting up a router was a specialty task that required training, by 2016 any moron could buy one off the shelf and have it running in an hour. As another example basic HTML was a specialty skill in 1996 but by 2003 you could do it with Microsoft Word. Smartphones are another example, they went from barely functional Windows Mobile and Blackberry devices which required ridiculous amounts of back end skill to deliver email to iPhones and Androids that any numskull can use for nearly anything at all.
My point is this; too many people are stuck on the “What use is a newborn baby?” question without realizing that the infant is growing-up at blinding speed. It’s also the first technology to carry the promise, real or not, of self-improvement when it reaches sufficient maturity. Assuming that happens all further improvement will be increasingly automatic and happen even faster.
AI isn’t going away and it’s only going to get better as time goes on.


There must be reasons why there aren’t at least SOME areas are doing this, since it essentially doesn’t exist.
They aren’t yet common but more are built all the time and they are far from non-existent.
You probably don’t realize how many of them there are. Here’s a link showing dozens of Solar Canopy projects done by just Lumos Solar. There’s dozens more companies across the United States doing these kinds of projects you just don’t hear about them. As examples did you know about the the solar canopy parking lots at Dell, Intel, Cincinnati Zoo, and Rutgers University? There’s also solar canopies in Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago, and Denver that you probably have never heard of.
Don’t feel bad for not knowing about them either; these kinds of project simply aren’t newsworthy unless they are tied to some major project or entity.


Yep it’s tiring but comment aged link milk because the very next day a bill was introduced to Congress.


Not even close, both of these projects are wildly deficient for that kind of use and the effort required to solve those deficiencies would at least 10x if not 20x the cost.
That doesn’t mean they are useless, I can definitely see some eyebrow raising asymmetric possibilities.
If you’re seriously interested in this DIY Radar System I strongly suggest you grab a full copy from Github and put it on local storage as I doubt it’s going to remain up for long.


You’re not wrong but I was specifically referencing the ground based drones with my comment. Apologies that wasn’t clear.


China’s SPR is the largest in the world, by a lot, but it’s also the world 2nd largest consumer of oil and it imports almost 70% of what it uses.
The US SPR is about 1/3rd the size of China’s but it is also a net exporter with a surplus of around 2.4 Mbbl/s per day.
It’s generally accepted that China has a large enough SPR to cover about 120 days. The US is essentially limitless since, at least on paper, it produces more than it needs.
I viewed some analysis over the weekend proposing that China would run into petroleum problems in mid-June if something doesn’t change with the Iran situation.


Until the drones start getting used on civilians. Which is absolutely going to happen and soon.


Two States, California and Washington, are not “The US” any more than France and Germany are the European Union. They are important no doubt but they do not themselves represent the entire entity.


Diesel at $5 a gallon is going to concern him a lot in a couple of months. In fact it’s going to be a very great concern for the entire Republican Party.


And what is the actual work requirement to copy-paste you post to your twitter?
Zero, there’s plenty of software out that there allows you to write once and post everywhere. This isn’t about declining engagement either since they are still reaching literally MILLIONS of people every year.
This decision was reached because of Xitters owner, no other reason makes sense.


This is a fast path to open source irrelevancy, since the US copyright office has deemed LLM outputs to be uncopyrightable.
This is a misunderstanding of US Copyright. Here’s a link to the compendium so you can verify for yourself.
Section 313 says “Although uncopyrightable material, by definition, is not eligible for copyright protection, the Office may register a work that contains uncopyrightable material, provided that the work as a whole contains other material that qualifies as an original work of authorship…”
This means that LLM created code that’s embedded in a larger work may be registered.
Section 313.2 says “Similarly, the Office will not register works produced by a machine or mere mechanical process that operates randomly or automatically without any creative input or intervention from a human author.”
Meaning that LLM created code CAN be registered as long as an author has some creative input or intervention in the process. I’d posit that herding an LLM system to create the code definitely qualifies as “creative input or intervention”. If someone feels it isn’t then all they need to do is change something, literally anything, and suddenly it becomes a derivative work of an uncopyrighted source and the derivative can then be registered (to a human) and be subject to copyright.
In short, it’s fine. Take a breath.


As they should be. They’re investing more in it and have a larger population to work with.


You may not but many others DO.


As an American I’m rolling my eyes so hard at your comment that they are about to fly out of my skull.


Jokes on him,I’m already in at least a dozen.
