  • I would also normalize against their frequency. Because if a tech is not used that often for being considered dangerous then of course it can show a low absolute number of deaths.

    But then again is a no brainer to tell that this kind of comparison is ill intended from the get go.

    The trope defending nuclear energy has always been “too loud” for my “taste”. It’s like mainstream politics, missing the point of why something is actually good and then spouting cherry-picking “facts” but indeed doing propaganda nonetheless.


  • The environmental impact can be discussed. Maybe training Kimi 2.7 is like sending a rocket to the moon. But using it locally can be optimized and then is as much as running your GPU. Arguably the impact is similar to gaming then.

    (I know this is an unpopular opinion because it reads as defending oligarchs. Sorry!)










  • imho it’s #1 because of all the characters, if you combine the depth of each it can surpass TNG easily…

    to me, the tie is between 2nd and 3rd place: tng vs. voyager

    4th mmm lower decks?

    ( And 5th is Babylon /s … Hehe. Then 6th red dwarf )





  • Are you British? Just kidding. But recipes do have a creative process. Chantilly cream was invented. Same as any other desserts or dishes. And parts of a recipe, like whipping cream, are reused throughout other recipes…

    I won’t argue on the remainder of your post because I rather just keep it as different world views. You have decided to defend copyright. We just disagree.


  • Look at kitchen recipes. They have no copyright. Chefs and restaurants still make money. That’s what I meant to arbitrary, they are the pillars to a made up scenario, or paradigm. You are answering from within, unable to see the alternative because without copyright capitalism would collapse. That was my point when comparing to nation states. I know I am parroting crazy thoughts, but I believe they are useful for creative rebellion and imagining a world that might as well be possible and perhaps even better. Copyright and competitiveness are not real good drivers for innovation, they’re just the rules of the game. Another game, rooted on cooperation may as well determine different rules for winning and the very definition of success could be another one in such a social system…
