I love how on Lemmy you can be pretty sure this reference needs no explanation. We’re all nerds and I love it.

That was quite a trip. What a strange guy.
Why do all the Polynesian countries support Israel so strongly?
I think we really need some kind of automation tax, whether or not it’s specifically this take. But between robotics and AI, the only sustainable solution is taxing these kinds of things to fund UBI or some similar payments scheme for the displaced workers. Otherwise, we’ll end up with a few wealthy capitalists and mass unemployment. So it sure sounds to me like they need to choose between the tax option, and a significantly more dangerous option.
What is it with all these celebrities and powerful people committing sexual assault? It’s not that hard to find a consensual partner as a random ordinary guy, so how the fuck can you not find one as a rich and famous celebrity?
As a taxpayer I would be happy to contribute to getting him a one way ticket off the planet.
How is that joke of a company even in business anymore?
There are many things I believe someone can accidentally do. Murder isn’t one of them.
Nothing coherent, I’m sure.
They probably aren’t literally Hitler. But there is a lot of damage and awful shit they can do in between reasonable and Hitler. And they are much further towards the latter than anyone should be comfortable with.
This is especially necessary in California due to the ballot proposition thing. For those unfamiliar, California lets citizens put new laws on the ballot if they collect enough signatures. So each year the ballot there can be dozens and dozens of pages as you read through each of these somewhat lengthy measures. It takes ages in the voting booth, so doing so by mail is way better.
This kind of seems like a non-article to me. LLMs are trained on the corpus of written text that exists out in the world, which are overwhelmingly standard English. American dialects effectively only exist while spoken, be it a regional or city dialect, the black or chicano dialect, etc. So how would LLMs learn them? Seems like not a bias by AI models themselves, rather a reflection of the source material.
European here. That’s true that he could travel (by land) within Schengen, however the EUROPOL database would flag him at border crossings, so he can’t realistically depart Europe. Big area to hide in but then again I’m not sure how realistic that is these days, I mean how long can you go without running a bank card or using a mobile phone?
Man, the more I hear about this Hitler guy, the more I’m beginning to think he wasn’t very nice!
Yep, this 100%. I travel a lot for work and have probably stayed in 100 airbnbs over the years, but these days I ask the company not to bother and to book hotels instead. It’s gone from a platform to get a nice home away from home, to a place to get gouged by rude hosts while staying in a barracks with the sparsest of IKEA finishings. They’ve done it to themselves by encouraging shitty host behavior and having zero consequences for bad guest experiences.
DW is a trustworthy and quality public news agency like BBC or PBS, so of course they want to ban it. DW reports accurately on the war with Ukraine.
Maybe, but logically they should be taxed on revenue, right? I mean, that’s how we’re taxed as individuals. We don’t get to pay nothing because we took our whole salary and reinvested it into real estate or something. But they do.
I guess it means you send a lobbyist to Washington and invent ludicrous tax deductions so that your company pays a near zero effective tax rate. Just like Amazon!

30-35% is about what Americans pay too in personal income taxes, but this is talking about taxes paid by businesses, which are unsustainably low in the states right now.
More of this please! We should be able to travel across the whole continent in electric high speed and/or night trains. I want to be able to get from Lisbon to Helsinki, from Athens to London, comfortably, without ever having to take a flight.
