Or not?

“The language of GPTs within swarms seemed to get compressed and more specialized as time went on, forming their own nicknames for events and things that the entire hive abided by.”

How well can this scale? For example, in 10 years will every cancer patient in Canada get a free customized vaccine?

For this argument, is there a meaningful difference between a PBC and an LLC?

Time = money

Exactly. And EVs are marginally heavier if tire dust is an actual concern. Massive SUVs and pickup trucks should be criticized first.

Charging, for me at least, is usually a 10-15 minute affair which is faster than my family can use a washroom and stretch our legs. Several road trips per year in an EV is painless.

Towing things long distances is one of the few EV weak points I can think of, but REV trucks should mostly fix that too.

You should warn Norway, which is approaching 100% EVs for new vehicle sales.

It’s a shame that the US and Canada are lagging behind. I get that politicians want to protect the fossil fuel industry and slow-to-adapt domestic automakers, but consumers and the environment suffer instead.

It’s hard for Siri to improve when the Apple engineers keep sleeping in.

Yes, for setting timers and playing music on my HomePod. That’s about it.

Haven’t tried the “new” Siri yet as it’s not compatible with HomePods or iOS devices 15 and earlier.

Small landlords also rent out basement suites and carriage homes on their own property, no? Those may very well sit empty if the return isn’t worth the risk.

Editing to just add: I absolutely support transparent pricing for rental properties.

“Be sure to drink your Ovaltine”

Used Tesla Model Y with AT tires? You can get a small lift kit for them if you want more ground clearance.

Same. Siri has been so bad for so long, and this announcement gave me a brief glimmer of hope that it would finally get better. However, every phone in my family is a 15 or older, and there is no support for our newer HomePod either. Boooooo Apple, booooo.

There are usually training versions of the race shoe, which are heavier due in part to thicker rubber soles and more durable foam. So you train in those, and then switch to the ultra-light, ultra-bouncy race version on race day.

Glad you’re happy with the Saucony Pro. I think the equivalent to the Vaporfly would be the Saucony Endorphin Elite though, which probably lasts no more than a couple of big races either.

If you ever want to try team Nike again, the Zoom Fly is the carbon-plated trainer I use, and it lasts a lot longer than the race shoes. I’m definitely not getting thousands of km though!

That is exactly what they’re supposed to do. They are marketed as racing shoes for a couple of marathons, tops. Everything on those shoes is designed to be as thin and as light as possible.

Right, but global CO2 is still a massive problem.

A data center drawing 5 GW is the equivalent power of 278,000 cars driving at highway speed. Even if these gas generators are cleaner (we don’t know because they are not regulated or measured), that is an insane amount of exhaust to locate near residential areas.

CO2, the stuff that has been buried for millions of years, and we're releasing all at once into the atmosphere? The stuff that is warming our planet faster than we, or nature, can adapt to? The stuff that is worsening global wildfires, flooding, retreating glaciers, heat waves, desertification, etc.?

Yeah, that stuff. And other nasty things in the exhaust as well.

The pollution is the immense amount of exhaust from the power generation equipment being installed on site at data centres.

I think a lot of people are desperate for tech giants to stand up to the current US administration.

This is like building a gas powered car with a refinery attached to the roof.

Batteries exist. Solar panels add weight and design constraints. Why is this a thing? What am I missing?

The US will just do what they did with Chinese EVs: ban the superior technology to protect US companies.

More likely it’s because the title rule was broken. The original title was not used, and the new title is unclear.

The closing of Hormuz caused fuel prices to go up around the globe. Voting differently in the US could have prevented it.

So yeah, random shit far away can have significant effects, and sometimes you can do things about it.

That said, focusing on local news does sounds like a great approach, but international news still needs some attention.

Only millionaires were driving Nissan Leafs and Chevy Volts?
