Always looking for penpals!
Great read and good points by you.
That’s a fair read and I had kinda come to that thought process. He’s a friend of Trumps and I guess Musk as well. So he’s okay with fascists.
But I do want to point out that in the linked article, he talks about a guy, Franchi, who received support from Communists and presumably the UK while resisting Mussolini but was a monarchist who fell into right wing activities after the war and was charged for plotting a pro monarchy court d’etat.
Much like how I don’t condemn small African anti colonial governments for taking Russian assistance. I don’t immediately view a struggling Small Pro Capitalist state taking USA assistance as inherently condemn able.
I don’t know Milei’s full views, but I struggle to have “guy who’s rounding up all the racial undesirables and occupying cities with troops” on the same level as “guy who thinks letting companies pay in milk is good”. Both are dangerous and bad ideas, but one is much MUCH worse in my opinion.
If I’m missing something, I’m genuinely down to learn more. These are just my concerns with my limited understanding.

I’m so mad at this anime for being so good it broke my rule
Do not get invested until it is finished
Genuine question for an OOTL guy
Is Milei actually a fascist and why?
I just genuinely haven’t kept up with him I knew he was a pretty serious libertarian cut all the government subsidy type, but I didn’t think he was a fascist.
Its a shame to see the game become a cardboard funkopop competitor.
Is it a HUD or just a spy tool?
I gotta wear glasses anyways so it’d be cool if I can get like a pathing over lay with maps and maybe customizable notifications.
But video calling and just taking poorly framed pictures isn’t interesting.
Folks reading way too much into this lol.
reads too much into it
The joke is they died!
And he wants a peace prize.
Just came to be pedantic
There are no left wing billionaires.
There are only billionaires and billionaires trying to buy room in heaven.
If you haven’t seen The Last Kingdom I heavily recommend it.
I never even bothered with multiplayer except to play with friends from time to time.
Building my own Corvette has been super fun even though I lack vision and am stupid.
And then I took my fighter out just to remember what it was like AND THEN I GET PULLED INTO A PIRATE DREADNAUGHT FIGHT!
That was so fucking cool. Game is good.

I made this document a while back for new gun owners with the absolute basics.
I learned something interesting from my AI researcher friend.
ChatGPT is actually pretty good at giving mundane medical advice.
Like “I’m pretty sure I have the flu, what should I do?” Kinda advice
His group was generating a bunch of these sorta low stakes urgent care/free clinic type questions and in nearly every scenario, ChatGPT 4 gave good advice that surveyed medical professionals agreed they would have given.
There were some issues though.
For instance it responded to
“Help my toddler has the flu. How do I keep it from spreading to the rest of my family?”
And it said
“You should completely isolate the child. Absolutely no contact with him.”
Which you obviously can’t do, but it is technically a correct answer.
Better still, it was also good at knowing its limits and anything that needed more than OTC and bedrest was seemingly recognized and it would suggest going to an urgent care or ER
So they switched to Claude and Deepseek because they wanted to research how to mitigate failures and GPT wasn’t failing often enough.

I’m mad you started your citation at 0.
I’m telling Chicago style!
Yeah that’s covered in the book and podcast.
Not in crazy detail but it is there already within academia.
The idea is that whatever hyper dense state of energy caused our big bang has caused others.
I’m just a tech guy so I can’t explain it with justice, but I heavily recommend at least scrubbing that podcast for when they talk about almost exactly what you described!
A Microsoft glazing botnet leveraging copilot and all of r/linuxsucks training data to shitpost on Lemmy made by a developer who took a Janatorial job at Microsoft to “get his foot in the door” during an internal hackathon he was accidentally invited to.
Damn it! Another book for the list!
I have a book on my to read list that delves into all the ideas about the “big bang” and how a lot of scientists are convinced that there were are and will be more “big bangs”
It’s called “Battle of the Big Bangs”
I learned it from Alex O’Connor’s “Within Reason” podcast episode 115
A 4060ti has been out long enough that you’re fine with basically any main stream distro.
I think even the 50 series is fine now with most mainstream distros as well.
I still prefer arch based distros now for Nvidia cards and honestly, Fedora is great!
