Canada has two options against the US. Get annexed or get a government that can actually defend us against them.

Apparently Pifed blocks images with certain text in it lol

Just looking at the happy human/sorry robot image, it doesn't work as well if the image is large (at least for me), the outline of the decoy message starts to take visual priority over the real message especially if you don't know what it is. With no additional context, I definitely read sorry robot on first glance with the image at phone's width and didn't realise that's not the actual message until I read the description. Seems to work when the letters are smaller though.

Intel gathering opportunity at least?

If anything, ban MEN'S sports to assist fertility.

Men can get kicked in the balls and it's over. Women are objectively built better for sports in that regard.

Number of times China has openly threatened to annex us: None in all of its 5000+ year history

Number of times the US has openly threatened to annex us: Numerous times around 1812, numerous times around 2025-2026

Don't know about "fun again" but definitely a lot less nervewracking and paranoia inducing.

Fire up the torrents

Also anyone eating that pork should be concerned. Who knows if one day they'll accidentally use Zyklon B instead of CO2.

You can run a local LLM capable of assisting in software development for less energy than running a AAA video game. I'm not denying the environmental impact of the current AI landscape, but I kind of disagree that it's intrinsic to LLMs as a whole, I think it's more a symptom of capitalism and its disregard for sustainability causing everything it touches to have a high environmental cost.

Also, nearly all modern computing has high environmental costs, certainly all cloud computing. I think instead of focusing on AI only, it would be more helpful to engage in a broader discussion on how computing can be made more energy efficient as a whole, and do proper cost benefit analysis of all things we use computers for, including but not limited to LLMs. We may well still conclude from that process that we need to stop using LLMs, in which case we should.

If you're against LLM use on environmental grounds (which I'm not disagreeing with), I submit to you that we should take the idea even further and things like gaming, video streaming, high frequency trading, social media, and any other nonessential computing should be on the same chopping block for the same reason. Applications of computing that we also use at scale with high environmental impacts, but that have been normalised and practically seen as a right by many of the same people against any amount of AI use (not saying that's you, speaking generally). Why should AI be the only thing we raise concerns about if we're to raise concerns? Doing environmental protection piecemeal by independently targeting single things and not the entire system has been shown time and time again to not work at best and make it worse at worst.

TL;DR

Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects, and if somebody has issues with that, they can do the open-source thing and fork it.
