The developers claim this thing will use “net zero” water. This is while they want to take water that would normally be topping up the Great Salt Lake and use it to cool the site’s gas power plant.nbs

gas turbines (like seen already in genai dcs) don’t need water for cooling, ccgt powerplant does, but it’s because there’s steam turbine downstream. dc itself could also use evaporative cooling. ccgt has some components with long lead time that will require more planning, footprint and construction than straight gas turbine powerplant

that night, dgerard’s sock drawer grew three sizes

it’s a haven for people who think Rimu specifically is some kind of combination antichrist/lolcow

the enemy is both strong and weak etc etc

Nothing has changed in that respect, except now we have an extra tool to make sure we get the decision correct.

And I thought the summary did a much more comprehensive justification of the ban than I could have fitted in the modlog, so why not include it?

idk maybe because it’s unnecessary to do that in the first place, and can be filled with nonsense from nonsense generator https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/25880065 emphasis mine

and previously, https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/67894781/25769171

unless i’m to disbelieve my lying eyes, that does sound awfully like llms are in the decision making process

update 2: they found the repo, week+ later, but won’t show you and it was made by yet another admin (tbf it was said straight previously deep in some thread). just a rogue mod, nothing to see here

also, poor wittle intern mod unruffled who was there as an admin barely for three years since day one, that’s no time to learn how to moderate at all

then after defed immediately came complaining on dedicated community

i’m not a professional computer toucher, but i bet you’ll find something to sneer at here https://haidra.net/deleting-users/

we’re talking about openly pro-genai instance where good majority of community banners is slop and that runs distributed chatbot cluster. apparently when you don’t just enourage brainrot as a service but also take it into your own hands and cook your own users autonomously, that must be some kind of revolutionary praxis

they want your data and freshwater

your read of this situation is entirely correct, but things aren’t as bad as you think. things are a bit worse

they’re running a distributed computing thing that hosts some llms and diffusion models, for their own and their users use

don’t you know, nuance is when you leave it to chinese confabulation engine to determine political leanings

given opportunity they’ll make anarchist palantir then will insist it’s all fine because it’s open source, sorry “open weight”

ah yes that must be that famed democratization that cryptobros yammered about

i think that perun took sponsorship from 80000 hours years ago, once, and eas or anyone in their milleu never reappeared

weirdly sbf-shaped failure mode, wonder how it helped that court case

2big2slop

that must be a particular choice, because ventoy works on both

i guess this comparison only sorta makes sense in surface level “this machine has no brain, use your own” meaning

bindeez 2007 recall would be close. tldr childrens toy contained plastifier that turned out to metabolize to ghb, this in turn was put in there as an unauthorized cost cutting measure by manufacturing subcontractor. within 2 weeks of the first incident there was a global recall. note that nobody died and there are no expected long term medical consequences. new batches had added bitrex and undergo qc for this specific contaminant, and brand name was changed
