Oh, you are just stupid

It’s not really whataboutism though is it, I’m just pointing out that there are alot bigger causes of climate change that can be dealt with immediately additionally to data centers but we don’t, because these things add a convenience to our lives. People could stop eating animal products, people can stop driving cars. I have, it’s easy.

But people won’t, so I’m pissing my self laughing at this website crying about AI.

And let’s add that electricity generation doesn’t have to be expensive and carbon intensive, we’ve chosen this course. We keep voting in government that love feeding money into the oil industry, then we get angry when people protest it by sitting on motorways or throwing paint at pieces of art that will be absolutely useless and worthless once society ends due to the climate crisis.

But it’s fine, let’s believe misleading information like available in this article and cry about companies trying to revolutionise a piece of technology and carrot on eating off the oil Barron’s stick.

Don’t you dare say that eating meat is bad bro, someone will get very upset and point their finger at AI

Ah yes, it’s tech bros that are killing the earth, nothing else, nuh uh couldn’t be anything else 😂 I don’t even like AI in it’s current form but you guys make me chuckle

It’s quite funny reading these threads and it’s full of the same technophobia. I wish I had the opportunity to have a specialised tool to help me learning when I was in highschool. I’ve gone back to university and there’s so many tools available now it’s amazing

Surely that would be the GCSE examination itself?

Ah so it’s all disc format. I was worried tape was making a combat outside of storage.

There’s no source in your comment so it’s taken with a pinch of salt. But I’m more amazed that DVDs are only half of physical sales. Unless Blu-ray is the other half of physical sales.

I mean SCOTUS just made a ruling getting ready to make trump king of the US…

I wouldn’t put the US on such a pedestal

It’s quite funny how terrified of China Americans are.

I mean I develop software on an 8GB laptop. Most of the time it’s fine, when I need more I have a desktop with 128GB ram available.

Really depends what type of software you’re making. If you’re using python a few TB might be required.

I get around this by simply not buying a Mac. Free’s up so much money for ram.

This is resource reservation, it happens at an OS level. If chrome is using what appears to be alot of ram, it will be freed up once either the OS or another application requires it.

It just exists so that an application knows that if it needs that resource it can use X amount for now.

This is just anecdotal, but as someone who both drives and cycles in the UK, I’d say it’s city dependent. I live in Leeds, go to uni in Leeds and work in Huddersfield. I cycle to uni, cycle to the train station and drive to work (when I can’t get a train for whatever reason). Leeds is getting there, albeit slowly but it’s getting alot better for cyclists. I like the electric bicycle scheme so I can cycle to the station and just leave the bike there. although it shouldn’t be more expensive than getting a bus.

They’d lose money in a sale as they’d lose their IP.

but chyna bad duh

God could you imagine the security risks though, having a physical risk in a network, that would be fun. Limewire on steroids.

I can speak from experience that content delivery is harder than storage. Companies like YouTube tackle the storage issue by having tiered storage levels. Trending content is stored on SSDs, new and often viewed content is stored on harddrives with a caching system similar to optane and archived storage (essentially old videos that very rarely get views) goes on tape storage. It’s really cool, and it allows massive about of storage in a small space, it’s costs alot to implement but because of the tape storage they essentially have “infinite” (it’s not really infinite of course but it’s a problem for next decade not this decade).

Actually the cost issues wouldn’t be the storage it’s self. Storage is pretty cheap, it’s content delivery networks. YouTube is supported by being owned and run by one of the worlds larges content delivery networks. There’s virtually no latency, videos play immediately.

Having millions (potentially billions in YouTube’s case) of people accessing data at once is an immense challenge and YouTube perfected it pretty early on, that’s part of why there’s no competition.

Oh for sure, I remember buying my first SSD and booting windows in under 10 seconds and being like whaaaat.

I am starting to think maybe I am a ram hog.
