Yeah sounds about right, will all respect to comrade critical resist, not the best post, appreciated the message but it's quite long to say not that much, and further more the guy mentioned as the golden fleeced lamb seems to not be all that powerful in doing as such. I don't mean my criticism in any mean spirit just sharing my perception about it.

I don'' t get the connection of the fable and the news.

I don't fear war ai right now, the point that scares me is US to stir up war in Korea (again) just to gather more data to train their models. And here are some sources, nothing conclusive but it is quite suggestive https://www.palantir.com/platforms/aip/defense/

https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/15/hyundai_palantir_autonomous_ships/

My reading of this(now we're into full speculation mode) is that all this ai training madness on Ukraine is the US both realizing that the eastern block might be better armed them them, as well as the US trying to use the headstart they have in advanced machine learning hardware, via nvidia and stuff to try to get the military upper hand via ai before it's too late. I think this is more out despair than sound strategy, but this whole analysis might be wishful thinking leading me to think the US is in worse shape than it really is.

I've actually heard from pretty respectable folks, that one, an possibly quite an important one as it is, of the goals of NATO in Ukraine is to gather training data for war/propaganda oriented AI, via the palantir company. And apparently same goes for Israel, so for this purpose who wins is not relevant just that the fight rages on.

And lastly and quite concerning palantir apparently has expanded towards south Korea, which is quite alarming if the trend continues.

Yeah I think that Russia will complete their control on Donetsk oblast, and maybe cross the river on the southern oblasts that they control half of it, and possibly just stand on the defense or slow down the attacks even further, so either Ukraine makes a silent armistice in the form of just not attacking anymore, allowing those territories to be more and more assimilated to Russia, or they'll keep limping along until there is nothing else left in the tank

After they lost vughledar (not sure about the spelling) things got extra bad for Ukraine, that city was a very strong fortification, on elevated ground that ensured a lot of surveillance of the surrounding areas and as consequence of the strength of that portion was a crucial point of the supply line for the battle front of two neighboring cities. Russia took almost a year to take the city down, and the consequence is quite dire to Ukraine for not only they lost such a valuable position, but Russia, naturally, now has control of a very strong defensive position that allows powerful support of an extensive area. If you look at the map, from vughledar so Zaporozhye Ukraine will have a hard time defending, and that is no small area.

Yeah absolutely I sent my message not so much to convince you more as a source of information to anyone else listening that might have thought that the training argument is persuasive enough to believe or at least be on the fence but closer to believing, like it's impossible to know for sure, but I'm working with the assumption that it's a lie, and I believe it to be the reasonable thing to do.

 

So most of the bibliography seems to be somewhat missing, with it only showing up like ����� �� �� ���� ��-�����, which at least on my end shows up as a lot of interrogation points, I don't know if it is a problem with the type fonts on my system or if it is an issue with the site. That being the case, does anyone have any idea where I can find the bibliography of the book?

Yeah the specialist I heard said could be training but you could send a thousand people to train 10 is absurd for that purpose it's logistically unreasonable

 

I've been thinking about it in view of the US doing that whole dance of threat around Taiwan, and I've asked myself, is the US capable of building tanks, subs, planes and missiles without China providing be it raw material or basic manufacturing somewhere along the chain? I'm genuinely curious about that so if someone knows about it or can point me on the right direction I'd be very thankful

 

Just created the ☭Juche Gang☭, guild for comrades for the fans of PoE. Any interested just hit me up.

 

I came across the data from the book mentioned on the post, even borrowed it on the internet archive to give a quick look at it, and couldn't find the sources used for the data, so I what I'm asking is basically anything related to this data or book or both, like how accurate the data is, how they reached it, or where else I can find sources of similar kind of data. Any and every help is highly appreciated fellow comrades.

So I saw on this post the upsetting information that fedora is blocked on cuba, and I Wanted to check if the same was true of the downstream distributions, in particular open SUSE tumbleweed, as well.

Edit: By what it seems they put it there more as a way to reduce liability(once the us trade embargoes seem to include most anything with US developed technology, although I do not understand that very well or if it does apply to open source stuff), in case the US comes a looking, because it does not describe any tools or measures to prevent it, in fact it even states that it is not geoblocked anywhere.

 

I recently stumbled on take on the Khrushchev Lied https://mltoday.com/khrushchev-lied-but-what-is-the-truth/

And I wanted to know if this makes sense or am I missing something and what is known about the stances of Grover Furr
