  They just refuse to mention that there's other #datacentre cooling options. Using water is flat out wasteful. It's cheaper to run but environmentally costly. Here's one option out of many https://geothermalinsider.com/learn/geothermal-data-centers/ It's obscene that we'd allow this to occur on the second driest continent on the planet, only behind Antarctica. Our politicians are failing completely #auspol and probably don't even know there's other options. https:/...

  It's now to the point I am going to carry a #UMPC running #linux so I have a trustworthy #PC and connection at my ready when out and about. This is ridiculous that I have to go this extent, nothing can be trusted anymore. Everything is #spying on us. #bigtech just can't stop sticking their epeen into everything in sight. Soon the only way to get any #privacy will be to build your own hardware.

  I suspect she's laying the groundwork for what is to come. A "Super El Niño event" impacting our cost of living, farms, climate etc will cause social unrest that she will weaponise. It's more than likely going to have a severe impact and I don't think it's receiving enough press. Hanson will twist it to serve her political needs. Even though she is a perpetrator she can pivot and blame the other parties for waging a culture war whilst more imp...

  That's impressive, but that's #AI it is only going to get better at what it does and process data in new and more interesting ways. Something lost to us has been rediscovered. https://theconversation.com/the-vesuvius-challenge-is-using-ai-to-virtually-unroll-pompeiis-ancient-scrolls-234573

  We in #tech told you the #socialmediaban wouldn't work. The clown in the interview believes it's not a problem to give your immutable biometrics to big tech, but you shouldn't give them your #ID #bigtech can't be trusted, most of all with our #PII and they have proven that. They claim 5 million child accounts have been closed.. how many of those are adults who refused to #verify ... These govts need to be put back in their box, they are public servants, not sp...

  What is more likely, that #governments globally are all mistaken in their application of #ageverification and are ignorant of the fact it can't and won't work.. or that the govts just want our #ID and are using #bigtech to spy on us all? This IS a case of Occam's razor... they know exactly what they are doing and they are implementing #spyware against us all. This is a malicious, intentional and deceptive act.

  We have a legal case against #bigtech They deprived us of agency by turning everyone's device into spying network, ergo consent is not possible. #google #amazon #apple and so on have deprived us of consent, we can't say no to spying because everyone's device spies on everyone else. You are monitored every day by devices others' own. We didn't #consent, nobody did. They are watching us 24/7 with implied consent, which does not count. They get away with...

  No, you have been lied to. There are multiple ways to cool a #datacenter Here are some. You can see why some still use evaporative cooling, it's cheaper. There are other options as well, look into it instead of listening to lying journalists baiting you for clicks. You're not going to stop the data centres, but you can insist your #governments enforce use of other cooling methods. Don't whinge, be productive, force multiply. Insist on better and you might just get it...

  I am aware most people probably don't know what transgenic mice are, but if you're going to make legislation you have a duty to be informed. These people are stubbornly stupid, they avoid anything that could expand their mind or teach them something. #NancyMace you will never live this down. Believing #trans mice are #transgender mice, as opposed to #transgenic mice just highlights how scientifically illiterate and ignorant you really are. You didn't even look it up. h...

  Automated weapons that can kill without human intervention are nothing new. The SGR-A1 was rolled out in Korean DMZ in the early 2000's. The SGR-A1 was equipped with a 5.56 mm Daewoo Precision Industries K3 machine gun, and according to We Are The Mighty, the sentry could be upgraded with an optional 40-mm Milkor MGL lightweight multiple-grenade launcher. People are complaining a couple of decades too late. https://youtu.be/pMkV8E2re9U

  #trump doesn't know his history. He should look up what happens to dictators when they are removed from power. Some of them are lucky to survive. Maybe he does know, maybe that's why he wants to be #president for life... because he knows what is coming. He's going to be in and out of court or a cell for decades. He won't get away with it because there will be such demand for his head that it will happen. Perhaps the next #election should be fought over prosecu...

  Tie me up, gun me down, imprison me or make me disappear, I will ALWAYS tell the objective truth. This is why they go after the #dissidents and #intellectuals first, we know the value of honesty. We will never stop and you can't stop us all. #defy #protest #truth #government

  #AI performing tasks needs to be viewed in two ways, one rarely mentioned. AI results in jobs being lost. This is a mixed bag as plenty of menial jobs shouldn't be done by people, they should be automated. Give people a better education, job and life. Here's what is never mentioned. AI can work for YOU. Do you need an extra hand in your small business or at home? You can have it, and it will be cheap or free. It will also enable us to watch the watchers and analyse their lives...

  There's a lesson to be learned with this #oil shortage and increase in price. This is what it will look like at the start of #peakoil and will only get worse. Stockpiles will be sold off at increasing cost and all costs will skyrocket. Transport will slow to a crawl and the economy slam into a wall. It should be a wake up call to the powers that be, but they know what's coming and they don't care. They are all hoping and gambling that they won't be in power whe...

  "They" will use #debt as a control mechanism. To "own" something, you'll need to borrow, which means a good ̶s̶o̶c̶i̶a̶l̶ credit score. All they need to do is keep #wages as a percentage of the #ownership cost of items you need. This is how the #billionaires can own and #control you. You will forever be in debt to them if nothing changes. #democracy has failed

  People say that #proton has good customer service, that's a lie, it's utter #bullshit. They silence anyone that speaks out, try making a comment on the subreddit that mentions customer service and you'll be automoderated. Prove they have a problem with their servers and they won't listen. They won't escalate issues if they can't deal with them, they just guess as to what is wrong. They make claims no sense because the agents HAVE NO IDEA what th...

  The #government has no idea how much they have screwed up. They might not listen to us, #voting may be almost useless in this #political climate... the #govt has chosen to listen to #corporations instead. However.. as we all recently saw with #flock and #amazon they will bow to our power, money. We can control the corporations if we #forcemultiply and that will carry more weight than any vote. If the govts won't listen, the corporations will because if they don't, we'...

  This is just how shit #bunnings is. I paid for next day delivery. The order was sent to the wrong store. They didn't have one item in stock so just cancelled it, the other item is set to pickup.... You can clearly see I paid for DELIVERY. Of course you can't call them, nobody answers. This is how shit #retail is in #australia This is why online #etailers rip is off, because they know how bad the alternatives are. The only way to buy is from shopping platforms, anything els...

  I am going to set up an #AI in my name. I am going to give it a fake career, marriage, family and background. It's going to post to others, some will be AI, some not. It's going to make videos and share things that never happened. It's even going to contribute to the filter bubble, make searches and use websites. When #bigtech watches, I am going to put on a show, their data sets are going to be useless. Bigtech needs to be careful of what tools they make, because we...

  Complaining about #AI is like complaining about knives because people get stabbed. AI is already revolutionising data processing, that's what it's for. Not just image generation or chatbots. When you say "no AI", you're saying no to everything it does do, and can do. Like new medications, climate models and education. AI saved my life because the GP & hospital were wrong. Literally, I'd be dead if it wasn't for AI. AI is a too...

  There's a line. This crosses it. Wifi and bluetooth "scanning" is bad, really bad.. but this is worse. I can turn off bluetooth. #biometrics are considered "sensitive data" and #meta is of course going to collect it from everyone without consent. So everywhere your face goes, meta will be able to identify you. Every store, every checkout, every person you walk past, every camera with meta connected. What can I say, fuck this. Meta has gone too far...

  There one part of #tech that we really need to abandon. #mansplaining and #sexism It's usually a young male in their early 20's, their level of experience doesn't seem to matter, they are sure they know best. They are very well aware I have decades of experience and was working in the field whilst they were still in diapers. Yet they will attempt to explain to me the most rudimentary basics as though I have never seen a PC or touched a PC. Really stop being so fucking...

  Daym. My old #espresso machine died, I was going to get a Rancilio Silvia but the price is a bit obscene in Aus, went up and isn't coming down. A second hand #GaggiaClassic is too close to new pricing, so I bought the new #E24 I already have a great grinder, so once I adjusted that from French press to espresso it was perfect. I know I have a lot of experience with manual machines, but.. I have to say, it's really easy to use. Just do a purge, pre-infuse, let it bloom then p...
