Unfortunately there are still a ton of people that think he is some genius engineer and visionary. I would love for him to get cut off, I just don’t have high hopes for it. Ideally he is cut off and sent to prison or sent back to South Africa.

That’s what he does. When one company starts having issues, his other company will bail it out or outright buy it. It’s a constant shell game.

He doesn’t waste his money on his companies. He wastes tax payer funding on them. And when that started drying up, he took it to the stock market, convinced the exchange to fast track adding his company to being eligible for indexes, and then wasted our 401ks on it. He’s the ultimate con man.

That’s just not true. Receiving a death sentence triggers an automatic appeals process because of how often things are gotten wrong. The state can absolutely tie that up. There is also just all the logistics involved that they can also tie up.

I’m absolutely not defending the death penalty. I’m very much against the death penalty. I’m explaining why having a large backlog could be precisely because California is more progressive and deliberately slows things down unlike some other states. Just a hypothetical this could be the reason. California was one of the first states to pass a “three strikes law”, which is another awful sentencing scheme.

It might be the largest because of how long and thorough the process is or even it could just be not advertising carried out. I’m positive Texas and Florida have much smaller death rows because they whip through them.

I think someone should build a simple, relatively cheap drone with a bomb and open source the design. Make it so anyone with a 3d printer and some basic supplies can hit their property from a reasonable distance away. Make them afraid to have that wealth.

The GOP just died.

Woah, that same thing was said back in 2008 when dems won the senate, the house, and the white house. They clearly didn’t die, the evolved to become even worse.

I did not expect all this progressive news from Georgia. I have to stop giving that state so much shit apparently. Way to go Georgia.

Because Starlink is where most of SpaceX’s revenue comes from and it doesn’t turn a profit.

I do it locally. Even a local LLM can be super useful in that situation.

That’s what I was thinking. Glasses free 3d tech has been a thing for over a decade. There were smartphones that did it too. 3d was a really popular gimmick for a while. I did like the idea of 3d on phones and their 3d cameras.

Sounds like it’s a follow up to the CHIPS act which started under Biden. At least this is buying stock and not just handing them cash. The government is “buying the dip”.

That’s what LLMs are great at. With search MCPs they can quickly look through data and hand you a source to answer your question.

The 256k works great. I think I picked the 2 iq3s.

Edit: I realize I typoed my last post. I have a 7900XT not a 7800XT. That 4GB more of vram might matter.

He’s getting nervous because modern tech is making the LLMs easier to run at home. MoEs with intelligent routing can be amazing on well equipped gaming machines. On my AMD 7900XT with 64GB RAM (all purchased before the RAMpocalypse) using Strata I can run Qwen 3.8 Flash Next a 90GB 125b parameter model with 256k context size and get between 30 and 40 tokens per second. Strata and probably similarly FreeToken have been absolute game changers.

You’re funny.

Some places, all the places I’ve been, give you the option. The machines are typically for people with bad vision because it makes everything easier to see. At the end of the day the machine just prints to the bubble sheet anyway and then that sheet is read by another machine.

Yeah, that’s kind of how I feel. Does it really matter if Meta decides to foot his bill for him? Either way the tax is getting paid.

Sounds more like Meta is just paying him to pay the tax. They turned it from a wealth tax to a corporate tax.

How does that make it easier for maintenance?
