The actual original quote is more like this

“Learning from the Soviet Union is learning to win”. The German words are chiseled into a plaque at the foot of a large bronze that stands in the open field that surrounds the Military History Museum at Gatow airport in Berlin, Germany.

Always struck me as very funny. Also kinda mirrors Trumps “So much winning”.

This article is disgusting neoliberal disinformation because it hides this simple and easily provable fact. Probably frames it as a debate with pro and contra. But it’s fundamentally moronic.

Where sanctions?

Yeah! Whoever has the most money and controls the media wins, as it should be in a democracy!

The Senate candidate’s previous association with the private military contractor that committed various war crimes in Iraq cannot be overlooked.

Sad anti fascist noises

High horsing around

Spend billions constantly smearing and badmouthing the enemy rival regime

“You’re no better”

“NOOOOO a historian would just say ok and not challenge our propaganda!”

PS: This is of course satire. Since the rise of the historians, all hypocrites have been killed.

PPS: Just read this and I think it puts the hypocrisy of OPs meme better than my bullshit:

It reminds me of what Nobel Laureate Harold Pinter said in his acceptance speech in 2005 critiquing the Iraq War and U.S. foreign policy:

“It never happened. Nothing ever happened. Even while it was happening it wasn’t happening. It didn’t matter. It was of no interest. The crimes of the United States have been systematic, constant, vicious, remorseless, but very few people have actually talked about them. You have to hand it to America. It has exercised a quite clinical manipulation of power worldwide while masquerading as a force for universal good. It’s a brilliant, even witty, highly successful act of hypnosis.”

Ah thanks, hadn’t heard of microG! Nice!

The speed of light in fiber optic cable is ~66% of what the speed of light in vacuum is (or radio signals in atmosphere). Signal first has to go up but then travels faster than in fiber optics cable and arrives faster. Hence faster ping.

Communits shits on vibe coded projects calling them slopcode Projects shut down

See! They are just garbage liability! Why are they hitting themselves lol?!?!

Well with the new hollow optic fiber you would be right.

Average ping time between Europe and US is 100-150ms, which is high for e.g. gaming. Satellite constellations could cut that down by 33%. Which was a huge promised benefit of starlink, even just for HFT stock trading which is like cheating and mining gold.

But yeah with hollow optic fiber being able to do the same, much of the value of Starlink should be wiped out! SpaceX stock should take a massive nosedive lol!

Afaik you’re wrong about overhead with atmosphere and dish.

The only value internet constellations now provide is universal coverage. But that could be achieved cheaper with a higher orbit of 2000 km instead of 500km. Coverage goes up to 12% instead of 3.6% so you need like 9 times (square) less satellites? I think? And the ping would be worse but still acceptable like 200ms between EU and US if you live somewhere off grid or on the ocean.

Well if that’s what is holding up more hardware compatibility for open android.

Hardware compatibility is the major problem with alternative android. Basically I have to buy a 10 year old used phone as is. Would this only make this worse?

Anyway, maybe AI code generation could actually help with things like hardware compatibility. Things like an AI agent could iterate on reading about a smartphone model and testing various configurations and patch drivers to make it compatible for many more devices. Not sure if AI is suitable for that, but you should be able to define stringent test cases for this.

What does it for me is that these companies were unwilling to pay creators to use their work in the training data

I believe it was logistical impossible. Many books used will probably be scanned and not even be available as ebook or drm protected or out of print. And e.g. Anna’s archive has 64,416,225 books and 95,689,473 papers. Too large to even say what is pirated or nor, or buy every book in a lifetime. And if every book costs you ~$10 that’s close to a billion dollars upfront. Basically creating LLMs wouldn’t have been possible without piracy (or maybe the datasets aren’t actually that extensive).

It’s hypocritical, but ultimately the same argument for piracy that individuals use: IP laws creates unreasonable restrictions that prevent people from learning (or enjoy culture at a sensible price).

(I assume you’re not saying you would need a negotiate a specific license to use a book or a public comment or article for machine learning).

Kinda reminds me of Year Zero by Robert Reid. The whole galaxy full of aliens loves Earth Music but only recently figure the concept of copyright. And how much quintillion moneys they now owe Earth lol.

Ping

“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”

― Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Just hold a lottery for the senate / house seat. No politics, no filtering.

So what are you trying to say? You signal goes up a few kilometers, then you’re in near vacuum in space where signal travels with proper light speed and results in faster transcontinental ping.

There are no clouds and atmosphere in space. That is what makes it space.

EDIT: Actually radio signals already travel near speed of light in the atmosphere. Only light in fiber optics is about 66% of speed of light.

EDIT2: Oh wow, a Chinese research initiative just achieved a breakthrough with hollow core fiber optics which does transmit close to the speed of light. This could render that advantage of sattelite internet moot! Upgrading cables is going to be a massive infrastructure project though.

If he’s braindead, he’s dead, not technically alive. This is voter fraud or even treason.

Of course they’ll get away with it lol. They’ll prevent anyone from checking if he’s braindead or not, so he’s neither alive nor dead. He’s going out as a zombie.

Does online banking work? I hate two factor authentication lol.

Would a hard fork not splinter the software support, killing the ecosystem? E.g. some devs only support that hard fork, others only the android compatible version.
