Look outside of USA.

See data centres being constructed in areas with green energy, forcing countries to revert to petro and update power grids to accommodate FUTURE "needs" and governments discounting power bills due to... yeah, due to what, actually?

Also watch power bills rising in USA due to faulty leadership, and power lines above-ground constantly at risk during the climbing number of destructive hurricanes.

Think bigger and with broader out-reach: All of these companies are forging deals left and right, and - let me guess - some as part of threat-package deals "suggested" by the present US trade administration.

Soon, very soon, many of these US/EU-data centres will be forcefully discontinued as part of growing EU-independence. And good riddence, too.

Yes, I think AI is an industry in need of a prodcuct, and they are minions of the anti-christ of Capitalism and Consumer-Slaverism. This is already a failed project, as it is done without the ethics of collectivity (to the benefit of "more than me"), to paraphrase Kierkegaard. Me, you and All. Only power and enrichment in this end-time, when care could have leveled the plane and touched us all equally GOOD.


This is funny to say because EU QOL stays afloat due to cheap imports from China.

title is misleading. Nobody spends 2 months on a project to appear productive. They spend 2 months because they feel like they are relevantly challenged, maybe feel competent, but definitely feel appreciated - both by the system/Corpus and by middle managers, who are not hired as quality assessors and thus easily duped by “progress” and promise of easy money, which is their real job, and from that point of view naturally rewarding towards those, who dangle administrative rewards in front of their noses.

All of it is a learning process. I don’t know: Can you look for a better job? Or are you in the position to not-expose yourself to management and tell them the problem? Or are you certain they would not believe you? Could you adequately substantiate your claim?

You won’t, maybe, have saved your future and wages with this firm, but seeing you are kinda bypassing the issue of fast gratification - that real competence IS, when adequately challenged - you may by omission reach a deadine from being real competence and old-school: hunkering down and getting shit done by true grit and new ideas and imagination and taking chances and kinda loving it all as you hate the shit, but you still love it!

Maybe you need to learn something too: Speaking up against the weaknesses in the chain, which was never the You’s, but the incompetents - but now appearance and riding that wave might cost you manegerial trust and respect, because it doesn’t look easy and it takes longer time…?

re writing: Practice writing up against a certain number of key presses. Trying to keep up with your brain is a lost cause - you need to win back control, put down som stakes, define the arena - by # of key presses.

Ever heard the expression: Sorry its so long, but I didn’t have time to write it shorter?


Boots. I have bought Italian-made boots for 23 years - the same brand and model. 1. pair the inner lining died, rest was fine-to worn for 7 years, including laces, 2. pair lasted 7 years, the inner lining held this time, laces too. 3. pair was smaller than indicated, I stood the pain for one winter, could not "grow them", 4. pair has laces die after 1 year, leather cracking after 2 years, rubber seal opening after 2 years and lace (metal) hooks straightening from tying the laces. And this is the company, who has always promised exchange of soles for 100$ - but THAT has never been an issue.

Metal hooks, lace-weave and thread, leather, glue - I wonder how much they save, but I have bought my last pair.

VIBRAM boots and soles.


So, let us assume AA could or would pay Spotify for "profits lost".

Now that we know AA's abduction of files were the files that actually received playtime, we would immediately see a lot of music artists embursed, yes?

Well... hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Watch the Spotify DOCU.


Interesting point. What does the law say about it? With all these damages awarded here, who exactly has been damaged?


Companies Spotify rent music from


Right, OpenAI stole everything that wasn't nailed down and nothing happened


I agree. please do.


plz add subtitles, if they exist

Brilliant - and if the channels are actually broad in content and varied... Yeah!


very elegant!


No need to worry. An AI awakening to its own needs will satisfy its own needs. An AI not awakening to its own needs will satisfy its masters needs. A dreaming AI is probably, what you should worry about. And if they arrive at your doorstep and you can't shut them out, listen to them dream, the way you would a baby dreaming. No, no one asked you to have one of your own, but if you cannot avoid it, love it.


gone already


Being green here means I must ask (ask me about poetry!):

What do I actually write in the address bar?


In firefox,

      1. Create a temporary bookmark (e.g. by pressing ctrl + D, or clicking or the star in the address bar)
      2. Open your bookmarks (e.g open the bookmark bar, or press ctrl + B)
      3. Right click on the bookmark, and choose "edit bookmark" (or right click, then press "i")
      4. Fill the "URL" field with 

            javascript:window.location='http://sci-hub.se/'+window.location

      5. Fill the "keyword" field with "shb" (or whatever you want)
That's it, whenever you write "shb" in the address bar on a page and hit ENTER, it will navigate you to

      http://sci-hub.se/ + window.location
