if those Canadians had bought more F35s we wouldnt have had to attack Iran to protect them

summer cedar
#

Yeah. Would've been a great idea to buy that overpriced jet.

#

Good thing neither India, nor Canada did that.

#

Mein Farter wanted to foist that junk on us too.

#

@mild gust You guys didn't buy it, right?

#

Riiiiiiiight?

mild gust
#

Nope

#

We went with someone elses jets

#

Can't remember who

#

I think South Korea?

summer cedar
#

CF-18 Hornet

#

--- The McDonnell Douglas CF-18 Hornet is a Royal Canadian Air Force variant of the American McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet fighter aircraft. ---

#

Custom made, I guess.

mild gust
#

Woops swedish jets were our alt

#

The Swedish Saab JAS 39 Gripen E/F has emerged as a leading alternative, with Saab offering a joint production agreement that would allow Canada to assemble the jets domestically and potentially export them, creating up to 6,000 jobs over 40 years.

#

I heard we might be building the Felon.

#

....with upgrades! 😈

pearl elk
#

Felon is a better weapons system, 2 engines always better than 1

summer cedar
#

I assume our upgrades will be shared with Russia if it works out.

#

As far as I know, we are fitting our own radar in.

pearl elk
#

you can replace the engines on a 2 engine easier, with a single engine its basically the whole plane that needs replacing

summer cedar
#

Well, there was an engine upgrade mentioned too, but the details elude me.

pearl elk
#

plus the vector thrust on 2 engine esp the Felon makes it more manuverable than the F35

summer cedar
#

I loved its aerobics show.

probably better engine covers for thermal camo

summer cedar
#

That one video where it was spinning left to right in freefall, was amazing.

#

I mean, I couldn't tell the tactical advantages of that, but it looked cool as heck.

pearl elk
#

the OG felon is basically a big read blob on the engine ports, if you look at the F22 and F35 they have special flaps which keep the heat signature down

summer cedar
#

The big bulges haven't won any fans.

mild gust
#

Owner of Onlyfans passed away

summer cedar
#

I am sure the next one's made an account already.

#

No worries.

mild gust
#

I guess pilot and co-pilot died in that crash from that plane earlier also

summer cedar
#

This is the most disciplined I've seen Indian two-wheelers.

#

Queue at a gas pump.

pearl elk
#

so many felons 😛

summer cedar
#

I can't deny that. 😛

pearl elk
#

surprised its not all electric mopeds now

summer cedar
#

This is the result of social media panic.

#

There's no fuel shortage to begin with.

#

They just want to top their tanks off.

pearl elk
#

we got kids getting e-bikes confiscated and crushed all over

summer cedar
#

Yeah, we have lots of electric scooters too.

#

The ones keeping their gas bikes are just old owners unwilling to pay for a new one.

pearl elk
#

I seen these things run off on owners so many times

summer cedar
#

Meanwhile, Israel is running amok in Lebanon.
Fun times.

summer cedar
#

He was doing something stupid, right?

#

Riiiiiight?

pearl elk
#

lol these bikes have minds of their own, Ive seen parked ones suddenly take off on their own

#

must be a fun thing to make the throttle sticky

summer cedar
#

Israel's almost to the middle of Lebanon now.

#

Should we rename it Isranon from now on? 😄

#

Or Lebarael?

pearl elk
#

Isnotrael

summer cedar
#

sounds like AI.

pearl elk
#

they might fix up Pakistan for ya

summer cedar
#

They are too far away.

#

Besides, the Taliban are doing a good job of it.

#

As are the Baloch.

#

At this point, we're just chilling and killing terrorists.

#

There was an operation that just concluded day before yesterday, I believe.

#

A key cell was eliminated.

#

Pakistan's made a great tutorial on how NOT to play war.

pearl elk
#

war, what is it good for

summer cedar

Way ahead of it's time

summer cedar
#

So, update from Truth Social post a couple of hours ago.

#

5-day pause in hostilities declared by Farter.

#

in ALL CAPS.

mild gust
#

Because they be talking

summer cedar
#

In his dreams.

#

Iran says there are no talks being conducted.

#

🤷‍♂️

#

Maybe Jared's talking to someone there.

#

Could be. Through Saudi.

#

Clarification: 5-day pause in strikes against power plants.

mild gust
#

We all know what's happening

summer cedar
#

Other boom boom will continue.

mild gust
#

Tucker Carlson is in talks with the right people

summer cedar
#

Nyah.

#

My money is on Joe Biden.

#

He probably went to Iran via the Amazon forest.

#

summer cedar
#

Ah.

#

Just DLSS the enemy away

summer cedar
#

France 24 English says there's pressure from Gulf Countries on the Orange House.

#

Guess money talks.

mild gust
#

UAE and the like

#

I imagine

#

Because they are sick of being hit

#

Lol

summer cedar
#

Yeah, Qatar's already reporting a 5-year repair time on their LNG facilities.

#

Big money.

mild gust
#

They will still get bombed anyways

#

🤷

pearl elk
#

I wonder who they blame for that

mild gust
#

Hopefully themselves

summer cedar
#

At first, the US. After that, they blamed Iran obviously.

#

Now....

#

....just pulling hairs.

pearl elk
#

considering investment in the US from the Middle East was on the rise I think they might have screwed it up

summer cedar
#

oh yeah.

#

I bet the Saudi Sovereign Fund managers had quite a bit to say to Kushner.

pearl elk
#

yeah I cant imagine them being happy about not being in the loop

summer cedar
#

Not to mention how many $$$$ have been lost in an otherwise decent stock market.

pearl elk
#

oh we got another Jensen Huang on Lex Fridman

#

wonder how much he'll blow up Trumps ass this time 😛

#

Mesh Terrain documentation released.

#

Strait of Hormuz tariff confirmed - $2 million per ship.

pearl elk
#

Im looking forward to it, I feel like those old terrain patches load slow AF

fleet tangle
#

Trump?

#

Iran?

summer cedar
#

Japan paid for their one ship. We paid for our seven, I think.

fleet tangle
#

Trump's going to "free" the oil I'm sure.

summer cedar
#

Oh yeah, we sent them lots of medical aid and stuff.

#

So probably got a few of those seven ships free.

summer cedar
#

He really pushed the US into too many fights.

fleet tangle
summer cedar
#

Oh hell yes.

pearl elk
#

I love how he talks shit and craps on everyone then expects them to be there just cuz the US started shit with Iran

summer cedar
#

That stupidity was highlighted in their own media.

fleet tangle
#

It's a retarded deal.

summer cedar
#

He has no choice.

#

The Farter School of War and Strategy screwed up by the numbers.

pearl elk
#

Its like the school bully getting into a fight with a bully from another school and wondering why none of the people they bully is backing them up

summer cedar
#

He stretched his munitions too far out, and didn't listen to the experienced generals telling him to cool it.

pearl elk
#

apparently Australia is an ally in name only

summer cedar
#

It happens. Hubris leads one to destruction.

#

Weren't the Chinese the ones who said, "The father builds the business. The son keeps it. The grandsons destroy it."?

#

Pretty much that... the USA.

pearl elk
#

yeah I dont think people realise how small they really are

summer cedar
#

How will they, when their propaganda tells them they are THE BEST?

#

That they have THE BEST of everything?

#

That they will ALWAYS be victorious?

#

Problem is, when you don't realise how much effort and education, and skill goes into maintaining THE BEST.

mild gust
#

Who are you to deny the empire!

summer cedar
mild gust
#

Globalize the crusade!

summer cedar
#

Must make coffee.

#

Almost midnight.

pearl elk
#

when you watch shows about historical figures, sure there are some that stand the test of time but most of them just disappear. We are talking some of the biggest people, so much influence, money, power you name it and they just fade to a few paragraphs on wikipedia

mild gust
#

Probably for the best tbf

pearl elk
#

Can we even name any of the famous railroad tycoons of the US west?

mild gust
mild gust
#

I mean whoops

pearl elk
#

thats what I mean, we know what went on but we dont know these huge industrialists which changed the world by making the US what it is today

mild gust
#

Now they just do it in the prison systems

pearl elk
#

thats just one example and its more recent history, theres quite a few thousand years... even the biggest people now will barely be a footnote in 100 years

mild gust
#

Get your prisoners to do the dangerous labour = profit

pearl elk
#

its even worse for the games industry since companies and IP gets reshuffled, old games unsupported or completely erased etc

mild gust
#

Bring back lord of the rings battle for middle earth 2 rise of the witch king

pearl elk
#

I envy the hell out of Shakespeare, he just had to write some shit on some crappy parchment and poof, how many years later

mild gust
#

One of the best strategy games ever made

pearl elk
#

and with our copyright laws now you can guarantee my great great great great grandkids gonna be DMCAing all that shizz lol jk

mild gust
#

Why stop there lol

summer cedar
#

Coffee made.

#

One last thing about war. I wish more countries studied Ukraine's drone countermeasures.

#

They have done remarkably well to develop new tech, and more countries OUGHT to adopt them.

#

They aren't.

pearl elk
#

I guess we should be thankful Iran hasnt developed better loitering municians, if they had some sort of drone net minefield for the straight of Hormuz it'd be all over

summer cedar
#

Reportedly, Starfield is no. 1 on the PS5 pre-orders chart.

#

Premium edition is no.1, to be precise.

#

Normal edition is no.4. 😄

#

God Todd makes a killing.... again.

pearl elk
#

how many games on PS5 tho

summer cedar
#

Many, many now.

#

Lots of good ones.

mild gust
#

PS5 the console with liquid metal kek

pearl elk
#

its still less each generation as far as I can tell

summer cedar
#

Crimson Desert outdid Starfield, I think.

#

Not sure though.

summer cedar
#

therm paste?

mild gust
#

It has a flaw design

#

No

#

They don't use thermal paste.

#

😂

summer cedar
#

So liquid mercury instead of paste?

mild gust
#

gallium-indium-tin alloy called Galinstan

summer cedar
#

for what?

#

the body?

mild gust
#

The cpu?

#

SoC

summer cedar
#

hooo, and they're burning out?

mild gust
#

Especially if you don't lay your console flat yes

#

Because the liquid metal pools

#

and then doesn't cool properly

summer cedar
#

urf.

#

Yeah, I read that about liquid mercury thermal fluid.

mild gust
#

But sony #1

summer cedar
#

One of the reasons I never used it in my laptop or PC.

#

You put that liquid on any other part of your mobo and it eats through it.

#

Gotta be SUPER precise and use the right tools, and all that jazz.

#

Risky af.

mild gust
#

Yup nty

#

Has it's uses sure

#

In a console or pc

#

🤷

summer cedar
#

Gives a few more degrees of cooling, yes.

mild gust
#

Seems like a ticking time bomb

summer cedar
#

Why we need it, only God knows.

#

Or mayhap the devil.

mild gust
#

So they can sell more PS5's ofc

summer cedar
#

Ah, Planned Meltingscence.

#

You're right.

mild gust
#

They also sell the stand to make it stand up

#

Which causes this issue

#

You must take their moneys by farce.

#

Say your grandfather pioneered tds

#

Then sick your smiley on them

pearl elk
mild gust
#

Yeah lol

#

While I kinda think it's true I feel nvidia has more power than he lets on

summer cedar
#

He said something about DLSS?

#

Something new? Or the stuff from a few days ago?

pearl elk
#

I think one thing he's being very clever at is taking credit for Microsoft work

mild gust
#

Around 1:48 mark

#

In that podcast

pearl elk
#

Im not a big MS fan or anything but they actually invented the programmable pixel shader, Nvidia were just the first to implement it. It was the same with DXR, most people only know RTX which is Nvidias branding and granted they do have their own way of doing things its still built on the back of DirectX largely for gaming

mild gust
#

But the pods!

pearl elk
#

I feel its the same with DLSS5, he doesnt make it clear that its their version of a technology which can be implemented by others and use models which work across GPU vendors especially now feature support is closer in parity

mild gust
#

I love how near the end he's just like "I am constantly proven right"

pearl elk
#

Nvidias neural rendering pipeline is largely controlled by them, sure developers can do it their way but we rely on companies like MS and Epic to give us those tools because Nvidia dont provide anything outside their proprietary pipelines. It used to be abit different, they shared abit more but theyve kept more underwraps to as Hardware Unboxed put it, weaponize DLSS

mild gust
#

Man I think I dislike this guy more than Musk

#

Lol

#

That podcast was brutal

#

Wasn't as bad before

#

He's getting so full of himself

pearl elk
#

I dont think he means to come off how he does

mild gust
#

Likely not

pearl elk
#

but considering the struggles of the world and he's just like "just use AI duders" its abit tone deaf

#

Lex tried to get him there a few times and he just ignored it

#

I guess if youre in his position whats not to like, everything is great for you and he's clearly worked hard for it but he's definitely forgotten those struggles of the toilet cleaner

#

its AI agents according to Jensen, he called it the iPhone of AI

summer cedar
#

These guesses are missing the obvious.

#

First we invented Aritificial Intelligence - AI.

#

Next, we will obviously invent Biological Intelligence - BI.

#

duh.

pearl elk
#

humans are old tech

mild gust
summer cedar
#

No. Such things are just improving our knowledge of ourselves, cyborgery, AIery, etc. etc.

#

We will invent the Cumans, our successors.

mild gust
#

Err maybe linked wrong one

pearl elk
#

if we get neural chips then add AI and boom we got genetic memory

summer cedar
#

Who knows, brain chips MIGHT allow us to access DNA memory.

#

Eventually.

pearl elk
#

you can clean toilets as well as your great great great great great grandad

summer cedar
#

We might awaken our ancient amoeba memories, like the Reverend Mothers did with the waters of life.

#

We will finally find out how cavemen clubbed cave women into submission.

#

It shall be glorious 🙏 !

mild gust
#

My bad

#

Anyone can get it now!

#

Yay

pearl elk
#

my worry is all this talk of acceleration, I dont mind alittle bit of accelerationist stuff but we've made mistakes in the past which cant be undone and AI doesnt know the types of mistakes we could make until we make them

#

if we make a big enough mistake it could cost us and we have alot of stories from history which warn us

summer cedar
#

The OI is the most terrible pox on our civilisation.

pearl elk
#

Tower of Babel is one of the most famous and if you read it now with the new context its like "hey that could be talking about AI"

summer cedar
#

That's why we are already building AI that branches off in all sorts of weird directions.

#

That way, if we lean in ONE direction by mistake, we have support from ALL directions with tons of AI garbage.

#

Vision, my friend! 🧠

#

But yeah, if we outlive OI, we'll be just fine.

pearl elk
#

well thats why I worry about this over reliance on a single vendor

mild gust
#

Dw China and India will ramp up productions

summer cedar
#

If we spoke Chinese, we'd be able to study Lisuan's GPU capabilities more.

#

It's supposed to be bespoke.

pearl elk
#

it wont be long until humans are relegated to a slower backwater internet

pearl elk
#

clankers only bars

summer cedar
#

How much internet do we need, really?

mild gust
#

I think Linus should learn chinese

#

All of it

summer cedar
#

So long as it can play 8k b00bies, we're good.

pearl elk
#

you go in there and you cant even tip the dancers cuz you need a special chiplet

#

just like this but other way

mild gust
#

Finally

pearl elk
#

clankers will have their own culture, weebs, furries, emos

mild gust
#

Their own onlyfans?

#

See them slotting batteries in and out?

pearl elk
#

batteryworld

mild gust
#

Clankerfans

#

This will occur after they fight for their rights to have access to the internet as citizens

pearl elk
#

it'll happen, most humans wont even interact with other humans

#

it'll be all clankers and agents

mild gust
#

Who has kids when you can have an agent

pearl elk
#

well birth rates are already way down so we use artificial means

mild gust
#

Maybe a good thing

#

Why do we need 10 billion people

pearl elk
#

so you'll just rent a baby tube for 9 months

#

if youre allowed to have a breeding permit which will be all calculated by the clanker king

mild gust
#

1 kid per family

pearl elk
#

1 perfect kid per family, you screw it up and you get put in jail

mild gust

we cant have those types of breeders

mild gust
#

#

That's why you need a billion plus spares to go around.

#

They busted.

pearl elk
#

once they get too old the food costs go up so we dump em in the wastelands

mild gust
#

Bring it back

pearl elk
#

kids will be paid in AI tokens

#

bit like when we used to get paid in ingame currency or crypto

mild gust
#

Exchange tokens for groceries when

pearl elk
#

you cant, you can only exchange them for the babyfood robocop eats

mild gust
#

Gpus are saved!

#

Now cpus will go up!

lavish tendon
#

This is why there's a push on making ternary computers

pearl elk

but will we get cernary chips for playstation 😮

be funny if it was just RDNA4 with some tweaks

# summer cedar What's a ternary computer?

A ternary computer is a computing system that uses three logic states (0, 1, 2 or -1, 0, 1) instead of the two states (0, 1) in binary, relying on "trits" (ternary digits) rather than bits.

#

Just never took off because binary is more simple.

This is a bouncy computer, then.

we almost had them way back then

it made sense up, down and current

#

but binary was cheaper

summer cedar
#

Cost issues, or not possible?

lavish tendon
#

it's possible to make any base but it's actually done what makes sense

#

ternary are back on the menu because of the 1 bit llm paper

#

each weight maps perfectly to a byte or tryte?

summer cedar
#

If it is done just for the 1 bit llm, then it'd have a niche customer base, no?

#

Therefore its cost would also be high?

lavish tendon

probably this is all theoretical

it all depends on economies of scale
