Was about to say now you should look into self-hosting AI, but you’re already on it. 😄

Tanking the financial system by means of the AI bubble bursting, right?

Time to get open sourced.

Opens up orders for new bomb production, maintains well paying jobs, creates new ones.

I think it’s more of a campaign / propaganda tool. Doug’s supprters tend to hate bike lanes and this keeps them and us distracted while he does more important stuff to enrich those who pay his campaign. Like moving the Ontario Science Centre to give the land under it to his developer donors. Or handed Ontario Place to a shady firm for 99 years. And whatever the current schemes are.

Yes, this is what I got excited about upon hearing about the recent Adobe “open sourcing.”

Or just drivers for existing abandoned but perfectly functional Qualcomm SoCs.

I’ve only tested up to 1Gb. It does 1Gb no probs, with SQM (QoS) which burns a lot of CPU.

We rode in the car lanes before the bike lanes. The carbrains have forgotten that.

OpenWrt on Raspberry Pi 4 with UE300 dongle for the WAN side. 7 years of trouble-free operation so far.

Sovereign tech is when the US asks nicely for a server seizure in your country and you hand it over.

This is probably the smaller peanuts tho. Italy debankig A/I on behalf of the US is the serious shit. They could have moved their tech operations from Amsterdam if they still had access to their money. That’s the much more serious sovereignty gap.

My oh my, it hits all the greatest hits!

Xi Jinping wants to rule the world

This one’s novel. I like it but perhaps a bit too on the nose.

Also this is who runs The Hub: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Speer

I don’t think you’d break Trump that way. He’s representative of Big Tech, Big Oil, and other parts of the US oligarchy. The next rep in power might be nicer but wouldn’t compromise on the interests behind them. Europe breaks Trump and whoever else follows by building domestic tech stack that replaces Big Tech, in practice, not theory. Along with kicking the US gas dependency by mass electrification, leaving the remainder of European / import gas sufficient for what can’t be electrified. I think. 😁

2 or 4 - functionally equivalent. A market requires many many more to be efficient. We’re better off only in principle.

Their material interests underpin the ideology though. I believe that’s why it’s so strong and resilient. Every time a public good or service goes private, someone can collect profit that wasn’t possible before. Often donors or sometimes the people doing the privatization themselves (or their relatives).

I think not so much destroy as keep subordinate and paying for US product, making profits for the US oligarch class. Europeans living well means there’s more surplus to be had. The US doesn’t want anyone destroyed (as a first option) - as that’s less profitable than subordination. Subordination can look pretty destructive for the averge citizen living in such countries though.

That would be a sort of best-case scenario. It could only happen if the EU breaks its dependence on the US. A EU-Russia economic bloc would be as big of a threat to the US now as it was in the 90s. Would be nice for things to go that way.

Could work for surveilling business customers.

“Yeah, OK, done, (LOL)!”

The Getty family and the Koch family - it’s a family affair!
