If it’s just mirroring you one could argue you don’t really need it? Not trying to be a prick, if it is a good tool for you use it! It sounds to me as though your using it as a sounding board and that’s just about the perfect use for an LLM if I could think of any.
So couldn’t we say LLM’s aren’t really AI? Cuz that’s what I’ve seen to come to terms with.
We’re coming up to a time where we may need to use the second amendment as the founding fathers intended- and the conservative sheep won’t be happy about it!
I didn’t even read the article that information is right in the title LOL
As somebody that works on a lot of Chryslers I can tell you I 100% despise theirb"security gateway" nonsense. Scanner has to be connected to vehicle and connected to wifi. You need a monthly subscription to access the security gateway otherwise it locks you out of the vehicle you can’t clear codes nevermind run bidirectional functions or program modules. If everybody had their own nonsense gateway like this, no shops would be able to stay in business everybody would have to go to their respective dealers. How many subscriptions can you expect a shop to hold? It’s pretty ridiculous. It also means if ur off roading in a wrangler and a fluke puts the PCM in limp mode, your not getting out of limp mode in the woods as you don’t in have wifi connection to security gateway. Undoing terminals doesn’t reset these issues anymore. Yes I have seen it happen where new JL wranglers have to lug out of the woods in limp mode over a fluke thing that just needed a computer reset. Yea ill stick to my 87 YJ when I go wheeling.
I’m just making commentary bud. Multiple times in the city I’ve seen people nearly get hit by busses because they cross the street nose deep in their phone without looking up. Some people can’t come unglued for 10 seconds to look both ways before crossing a busy roadway in a bus plaza, it’s kind of crazy!
Smart phones are just pocket computers. Up to you how their used, good evil neutral it’s all at ur fingertips.
That will never work, nobody has discipline anymore
Lol Alabama family trees are more like telephone poles
Some one? I’m sure there will be more than one lol. And unfortunately probably not who we want it to be.
Curious to see how unglued this country gets after pissing on Trump’s parade, I have a feeling we’re in for quite a treat
You can do anything once, twice if your quick!
This is the sort of adoption we need to bring Linux into the mainstream
Yea but we both know you wont, because your just as credible. It’s a fact that it you average ev has twice the carbon footprint of a ice car, and takes 3 years roughly to offset its carbon emissions assuming 15k miles driven a year. At 10 years, carbon footprint of an ice car is roughly double that of the ev, but from 10 years on your subject to battery failure and now need to dispose of a big nasty battery pack and replace it. It will take a few decades to see what the true footprint of evs are, and there is no published studies with the long term effects because we haven’t gotten there yet. This is the closest thing I found upon a brief search, so fesrlst yer eyes on a graph. Keep in mind that’s based off a Nissan leaf and fiat 500, you could choose a more economical car with smaller footprint and a larger footprint ev to skew results in my favor, or compare the leaf to a truck or whatever ur average American drives and steer the conversation towards evs but I think it’s a reasonable apple to apples comparison. This whole conversation has been speculation and I thank you for ur engagement 👍 https://www.factcheck.org/2024/02/electric-vehicles-contribute-fewer-emissions-than-gasoline-powered-cars-over-their-lifetimes/
Alright here’s more effort than you could be bothered with- drilling oil out of the ground involved a drill that goes deep into the ground. Their not all that big. Have you seen a lithium mine before? Massive hole in the earth miles wide and quite deep, a hole in the earth that will be visible for centuries. A big open wound on the planet that cannot heal itself. I know this is a tough comparison because oil is more of a consumable, and lithium for batteries sure it’s technically a consumable but with a much longer life than say a 50 gal drum of oil. I’m not taking into account refining for either material, or the waste involved with disposing of batteries or emissions of cars burning gas. It’s an apples to oranges comparison and hard to say which is worse at the end of the day. What is a fact, however, is that producing an electric car is more harmful to the environment than producing an ice car. And keeping an old ice car alive is better for the environment than producing any new car. Both lithium mining and oil drilling quite frankly awful for the environment. So do you have the gusto to help me understand and produce a productive conversation or are u happy to just troll? It is an incredibly complex issue to account for the exact environmental impact of either, but an issue that intrigues me and I think an important conversation to have.
Care to offer a morsel of information? I like facts not speculation or public optics…
Spoken like a true pedestrian. I live in one of the bigger “cities” in my state and it’s smaller than a “small town” in the last state I lived in, not having a car here is impossible. The most environmentally friendly thing to do would be abandon all technology and eat berries in a cave and die at 30 because of poor hygiene, your comment is irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
The most environmentally friendly thing you can do as a car owner is just keep the oldest car u have alive as long as possible. Cash for lunkers wasn’t about getting people in cleaner cars, it was about subsidizing companies so they could sell more while destroying perfectly good vehicles. This shredded the used car market and we are paying for it now. Literally. If you need to get a new car anyways, sure an ev or hybrid might be the way. But keeping a stinky old diesel running, while it may seem counterintuitive, is the cleaner thing to do. What we wmit driving pails in comparison to the production pollution associated with all these throw away cars.
I thought it was widely accepted that lithium mining is far more harmful to the environment than drilling for oil, and that the hope was that not burning oil/gas we offset the mining (to the point if u drive ur electric car x miles it’s cleaner overall than if u drive an ICE vehicle). Do you have information that states otherwise?
From what I understand your spot on except for the nicotine part. Nicotine on its own right from what I understand isn’t all too terrible for you, however having nicotine in ur airways keep ur lungs and throat from expelling contaminants from lungs via the cilia (hairs that push contaminants out of airways). So by the very nature of vaping or smoking, the nicotine in ur airways stops ur airways from clearing out the crap that’s bad for ur lungs (for example if u smoke weed and vape, the weed smoke that’s bad for u can’t get out and will cause more damage than if u didn’t vape). This is why when u stop vaping or smoking, after a few days to a week you tend to have coughing fits. This is ur Celia finally getting back to business and pushing nasty shit out of ur lungs after being suppressed for so long. This discovery is also why I finally quit vaping, as I quit smoking cigs for a healthier life but I was not achieving what I wanted by replacing it with vaping. Yes it’s better for you, but better is relative. It’s still bad for you and there’s no arguing that.
