Yea exactly that, your experience is that of late stage capitalism which fucks us. There was a clear opportunity for Shell to create a decent slow charging network, but they instead stopped it and now no one can use it. Now personally I'm limited to Electrify America (owned by Volkswagen), and Tesla superchargers which only one of it compatible far away. Meanwhile in other countries like in Europe and in China they are putting chargers everywhere.
How power hungry is it to have kids? You could calculate that, determine that I decided to not have kids, and then add that to my tab for AI generation power usage.
I've started using raw JavaScript in all my projects. There's something about not relying on any libraries that makes it feel so much more powerful. The best AI models are very good at writing raw JavaScript, meaning you can easily create your own single page application structure. All I want are single page web applications using pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Art has never really been valued in our system unless it proves some marketing benefit to get people to buy the product. Many people don't spend a significant amount of money on art. In our late stage capitalist system, corporations absolutely will use whatever technology they can do avoid paying, which is why we're seeing demand break down.
No one gives a shit, EVs are the future and are already insanely more efficient than gas powered cars. Less maintenance issues, new ones have even farther range than the average gas car, extremely fast charging.
Awesome thank you, food scrap recycling is absolutely important. I have a community on Lemmy already started here for any recycling stuff: https://lemmy.world/c/Recycle. There's a company around my area called WasteNot that does that as well: https://www.wastenotcompost.com/. I'm just starting to push for the waste to energy plant, after reviewing my old video, I think there's going to be an extremely good reason to build one in the next decade in Illinois. It'll create jobs, stop the growth of landfills, protect the environment, provide energy, and recover metals. That's a great question about further discussion, I'll work on creating some type of place to discuss. Probably between here on Lemmy, Discord, Reddit (even though we don't like it). For now I may just use the Recycle community which already exists. The truth is something like this needs a social push and strong plan, hard to argue against, so we'll need people who give a shit to push for it alongside us. It's worth it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste-to-energy
They're putting the cart before the horse. You can't have data centers without electricity. You think any of these data center companies are investing in producing more electricity? No, because it's a bubble.
I thought we had "innocent until proven guilty". But instead we have a convicted felon for president who's a pedophile friend, and a guy named Luigi Mangione in jail while we don't even know who really did it.
Ask the average Gen Z about Netscape, they'll have no idea what you're talking about. It's forgotten. Netscape used to be a big thing that was briefly in the spotlight like ChatGPT.
I don't think Aldi or Costco are evil corporations. If we just say "All corporations are evil" then it allows the truly evil shit to slip by. Like yea, I get the "Oh there are some good ones" argument is stupid. But I think it's important to at least pinpoint and expose the specific decisions that are made which are truly evil.
I think what we need is to get people together and work towards creating a new network using the cheapest most advanced available technology. Don't worry so much about fast charging because it's expensive, just strategically placed micro slow charging in parking lots of grocery stores. Make a deal where you split the profits or something.
I would just start with Linux Mint and then learn from there. I've never been one to mess around with different distributions. I've only used Mint and Debian.
Plug-in hybrids feel like an attempt to get the "best of both worlds", but really they're overly complex and problematic. They also consume about as much as a regular gas car unless you keep it charged constantly. Pure electric is much simpler.
I prompted it and selected it. It gave me a lot of shitty ones before I chose this one and shared it. AI does nothing without being told what to do.
