Putin absolutely couldn't let Prigozhin walk, nobody could have. It's not just about the semi-autonomous mercenary army, if a government lets someone get away with an attempted coup d'état they'd effectively encourage others to give it their best shot as well because there was no effective punishment. Assassination is, well, a very Russian approach to the issue, but every government on this planet would have taken some form of action.
The difference is that the images AIs spit out are, well, real. Imagining someone naked doesn't produce a potentially very convincing actual image that can be shared.
I do think that AI can't really be effectively regulated (my fucking laptop can run Stable Diffusion), but that doesn't mean that there's no need for a debate.
I am dissapointed in my peers. For years I have always been told to stay away from Apple devices and the company in general. However, no one who said that actually used their devices, or used them but not recently (some had like iPhone 4s in the past). Their knowledge was always based on some 3rd hand impressions or internet...
I don't need to. iPhones are pretty but every time I've been forced to use one I wanted to pull my hair out, I know they're vaunted for being easy to use but I find them incredibly unintuitive, and I need help to do basically anything. MacOS is mostly Fine™ (with that being said - no window snapping? really?!), but they have no laptops with a number pad on the keyboard, and even if they did, they don't have matte display options so I couldn't comfortably use the damn thing anyway. It's a laptop, I'm not going to use it exclusively in darkened rooms with the lights turned off.
Edit: Also, MacBooks are entirely unupgradable. So that's a hard no from me based on that alone. The "need more storage/RAM? Buy a new laptop!" approach is just entirely unacceptable as far as I'm concerned.
Prinzipiell eine gute Idee, aber der CDU traue ich nicht mit der Umsetzung. Mehr bezahlbarer Wohnraum wird bitter benötigt, auch wenn die NIMBYs was dagegen haben. Nur wird's mit der CDU halt kein bezahlbarer Wohnraum werden.
Sorry, aber das war schon immer Naiv. Es gibt Kriege, die geführt werden müssen. Wenn ein Völkermord stattfindet ist militärisches Eingreifen die einzig "richtige" Vorgehensweise, Sanktionen wirken bestenfalls zeitverzögert und sind damit in Situationen die sofortige Wirkung benötigen einfach nicht effektiv.
No, we want Russia to unconditionally surrender right now. But since that's unrealistic, we want to provide Ukraine with the means to defend itself from a blatantly imperialist invasion by a fascist state.
Wow, you really did swallow the official Russian stance. I bet you'd also have believed that Poland attacked that German radio station in 1939. Repeat after me: Russia has invaded Ukraine because the Russian government does not consider Ukraine to be a legitimate nation. But don't take my word for it, read Putin's essay on the matter. It just takes a minimum amount of actual reflection to see that that's the real reason for the invasion.
Which just highlights how exploitative the whole endeavour is. Rich Westerners hire poor locals to risk their lives for no good reason beyond clout. These aren't scientific expeditions, there's no actual value in them.
Also, what 2012 pc laptop would still be usable in 2023?
A lot of them, especially if you're doing a fair comparison and look at Windows laptops that were in the same price bracket as the MBP (though even many cheaper ones will still work).
Klar, aber erklär das Mal dem kolumbianischen Farmer dessen Lebensgrundlage hier zur Debatte steht. Irgendeine Form von Perspektive muss geboten werden. Und ich hab leider auch keine wirkliche Ahnung wie.
Gut, das stimmt natürlich. Aber auch die Großkonzerne beschäftigen Menschen die oft keine wirkliche Alternative haben. Man muss irgendwie eine auch für die Amazonasstaaten sozialverträgliche Lösung finden, das ist alles was ich sagen wollte.
