DeepSeek did everything right, it will not be possible to ban when anyone can run distilled versions on their own mid-high end consumer hardware and even full version.

The only way to access OpenAI o1 is through their API.

A senior administration official told NBC News that they expect 5%-10% of the federal workforce to quit, which, they estimate, could lead to around $100 billion in savings

The Federal Government spends $100b less, but now the workers will have $100b less to spend on goods and services. It’s not a “saving”. Hopefully not many take the bait.

All full-time federal employees are eligible, except for members of the military, employees of the U.S. Postal Service, positions related to immigration enforcement and national security and other jobs excluded by agencies.

Of course.

Fr tho the seller is (likely) Chinese and doesn’t know

hostingby.design and seedhost.eu have it, more expensive though

1. Yes its just a remote server that you can torrent on

2. Yes you get SFTP and shell (non-root/root depending on which provider) access

3. Yes, you can with Deluge, rTorrent etc which run on seedboxes

4. Depends on the provider, some seedbox providers don’t support public trackers (or cap upload speeds)

5. Depends on the provider, major ones like seedhost or ultraseedbox don’t. And yes they can see what you transfer, it’s a shared linux server.

6. No, you need root access to run torrents over a VPN, not available on shared seedboxes but you can do it on dedicated servers/seedboxes.

7. I’ve tried seedhost, ultraseedbox, whatbox.ca, hostingby.design. all pretty good.

You get like 10-20 messages a week with o1 on Chatgpt plus and it’s allegedly very energy intensive. So much so they run losses on the pro subscription.

Deepseek r1 is great, cheap and unlimited messages with API.

Yea and why cryptocurrency isn’t money with its exchange rate being determined by how much fiat currencies are entering and exiting.

OK, two cryptocurrencies as legal tender. My point still stands. If you give people a choice between crypto and fiat they will use fiat, even if it’s a foreign currency like the Dollar in El Salvador.

The solution for El Salvador or any other country using a foreign currency isn’t to go with another foreign “currency” like Bitcoin but building their own currency.

El Salvador had their own currency until they gave it up because their leader back then was a US Puppet.

Sole legal tender.

Edit: I dare them to pay all Government employees in Bitcoin, demand taxes be paid in Bitcoin. It would be a funny experiment if it weren’t for mass unemployment and deaths that arise out of a recession.

It would be funny trade wise too. No other country is going to accept Bitcoin as payment for real goods and services. So, the country will have to convert Bitcoin to USD at market price (which can swing wildly) and also hope the market has enough liquidity to handle it.

money has to be backed by the state so if bitcoiners really want bitcoin to be used in everyday transactions, i would suggest running for President and replacing U.S. Dollar with Bitcoin for tax payments/legal tender.

how will the state obtain Bitcoins? by building massive resource wasting mining farms which itll have to issue bitcoin bonds to build, making the state subservient to the private bond markets and interest rate it demands, Greek style.

there is massive plague and the economy has collapsed? what will the state do? cant give people money or increase healthcare spending because the capacity of the state to mobilize resources is now limited by what the private sector is willing to give it or how much it can mine. oops mass death.

bitcoiners have to be dumbest creatures alive. these people can’t imagine a pro-Worker Government so they have to come up with convoluted ways to tie the hands of the state so it cant give capitalists free money.

Ukraine’s allegations included unlawful detentions, ill-treatment of civilians, and the suppression of the Ukrainian media and the Ukrainian language in schools.

Yeah Ukraine never did that.

Adblockers can still mute and stop the user from seeing the ads with black screen (or fast forward). Advertisers will still be mad.

Yes ik they disable the video controls but the video is still served just like before, just that they inject ads into it.

After a brief pause and a laugh from the audience, Sir Keir stressed a history of public service, particularly as director of public prosecutions, and said he was not “tribally political”.

My beloved apolitical Prime Minister. The poll should’ve had a “neither” option.

Brits fucking suck

I mean…

At a dinner meeting of the Big Three on Nov. 29, Stalin proposed executing 50,000 to 100,000 German officers so that Germany could not plan another war. Roosevelt, believing Stalin was not serious, quipped that “maybe 49,000 would be enough.”

Churchill, however, was outraged and denounced “the cold-blooded execution of soldiers who fought for their country.” Before storming out of the room, he said that only war criminals should be put on trial. Stalin brought him back after saying that he was only joking.
