Inhumation has been practiced for hundreds of thousands of years. It’s about as basic to human existence as fire, pottery, and agriculture, if not more. Inhumation will cease exactly when there is one human person left on earth, and this unpopular opinion will be dead and buried long before that.

Why would anyone believe any of this attainable for the average person in the best economy? A personal chef? Common, this has to be some right wing satire.

I have a different take.

AI today is basically a mechanical school. AI students are trained to give a specific answer. This is at the heart of how all machine learning works, including generative AI. Even image generators do this.

“Here’s a million examples of what the pixelated representation of a hand looks like; now go and make a derivative copy.”

This is fine for objective facts, like physics and history. It is useless for art.

Merely drawing a hand is not art, it’s an objective truth (do typical humans have 5 or 6 fingers?). But art school is not about objective truths. Art school teaches creativity. Specifically challenging ideas and expression.

AIs can’t fundamentally challenge ideas and express themselves because they lack personal experience, personality and individuality.

Society at large has been fooled into thinking that speech (LLM) and other generative AI lead to AGI. But the reality is that these models have more in common with encyclopedias and stock image libraries than intelligence.

Surely the SVGO package can be compiled into a browser bundle.

I might look into this myself…

Does this support SVG, i.e. SVGOMG/SVGO? If not, that’s a glaring omission.

Horses can go places cars cannot. You have completely missed the point.

Everything on planet earth is finite, without exception. At the same time, everything can be renewed. The question of renewability is more about how much effort it is to return something to its original state to be used again. Iron is comparatively easy to refine back into its pure, usable form.

This is the best way to stick it to fascists.

The US cutting off the rest of the world first does the exact opposite of this. No matter how big the US is, there’s not a chance in hell the US can both compete with China and antagonize the rest of the world at the same time. This is pure fantasy.

Interesting prediction. Here’s mine: American companies will see the isolationist policies and chaos as bad for business, and just pack up and leave.

They’ll order your food and find the best deals on shopping, swipe your dating profile, negotiate with your lenders, and generally anticipate your every want or need. The only ingredient they’ll need to realize this blissful future…

blissful future ??? This sounds like some nihilistic death where you stop participating in society. WTF is wrong with people.

I know you are being facetious, but for the sake of argument, at some point, the tariffs are so big, no trade is happening, so it doesn’t matter how “big” the tariff numbers are at that point, it’s all the same.

Right. The only difference between a tariff and a VAT, is that the VAT applies to all products indiscriminately, where as a tariff only applies to imported goods.

Some of the states are cool. Let MAGA have their own states, so they can find out for themselves how their experiment sucks.

Priced out of circuses? My dude, social media is the new circus, cheaper and more accessible than ever. No need for bread when we can control and distract the masses by pulling on the algorithm levers at no cost.

This query works for me in hass with llama3.2:3b.

Cool. Now do the USA next.

Bread and circus. The dial on the circus went up (social media) so the powerful can now steal the bread (goods).

It’s all just more of the same.

I’m sure attacking states is going to make the USA a stronger union, especially as it isolates itself from the world.

Been on Lemmy from Reddit for over a year. Really don’t miss it, except for a few niche communities.
