I wonder what happened to the other people who signed on notdivided.

I am assuming they quickly realized that they'd rather be rich hypocrites than less rich principled people

I can guarantee you that if there were an accurate test for morality (like humanity) it would show the ones with the least, being the most powerful and wealthy on this planet.

I think that many of the most powerful and wealthy have very low morality, but that's not exclusive to them. There have been many sadistic killers who were poor or middle class.

Why do you believe poor people can't simultaneously be terrible people?

Have you never seen the kind of horrific rat race mentality that widespread generational poverty can drive in a society?

Like If you listed the poorest neighbourhoods in the poorest cities in your country do you get highly virtuous places filled with saints.

They don't. You invented that argument from whole cloth.

> it would show the ones with the least, being the most powerful and wealthy on this planet.

I think it should be logically inverted. Right now it says:

Not virtuous => Extreme wealth.

But I think it makes more sense as:

Extreme wealth => Not virtuous

America has been running this test the last decade.

The answer is 30%.

While I agree with the thrust of where you're coming from, that number is much much higher than 30%. While pigeonholing the problem this way might make you feel good, it's really not productive.

The definition of amoral we're using here isn't someone being openly amoral, but rather people who think they're acting morally but actually rationalizing immoral things to themselves as moral. So it's not terribly surprising for this to be nearly everyone - that 30% is also acting directly against their own self-interest, yet rationalizing this as well!

I suspect part of the dynamic with the rich and powerful is that rationalization and general success are both reliant on intelligence - the same ability that helped them amass wealth/power has also assuaged their ego that they did so for some higher purpose. In addition to the obvious dynamic whereby sticking to your morals is generally less lucrative, of course.

Would anyone knows if asahi is ready to be a daily driver on the m1 sir tet? How is the battery life against stock macos?

For me, it has been ready as a daily driver for more than a year. Battery life is shorter than macos but still long enough that I don't have to think about it (which I can't say about any x86 laptops, even when they use iGPUs).

The notable missing features are external displays (an experimental kernel branch is publicly available though) and the fingerprint sensor. That's about it, though. Given the amount of polish combined with the hardware, it's arguably the most polished Linux laptop experience you'll get.

`sudo cpupower frequency-set -g conservative` might help a bit with battery life.

Sorry, typo. Meant macbook air m1.

Depends A LOT on what exactly you need for day to day usage. E.g. some have higher requirements than others.

Mostly good battery life. I am on the move a lot and can use a laptop with full day battery for mostly youtube and web dev.

The failure to compete will also make US care makers irrelevant outside of US. They are pretty well out on the way already.

I'm trying really hard to think of a US car maker that's actually super relevant outside of the US.

Ford in Europe is Ford Germany, a fully owned but separate entity (which is probably why Ford sales in Europe are decent). I think they have presence in other markets but most of their money comes from the US.

GM used to have Opel/Vauxhall, but it sold it to Stellantis.

Chrysler is now owned by Stellantis, which is a mostly European car maker.

Tesla is the obvious new kid on the block but unless they're the only ones with self driving cars globally, I don't really see them hanging on to their global market share 20 years from now in front of Chinese, South Korean, Japanese and European car makers.

TL;DR: I agree with you.

Something like this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_di...

Don't think so. Whales and dolphins seem to have a fairly sophisticated language with regional dialects and accents.

It's less a misunderstanding and more of a need to control.

I like it. It gives me confidence that a random software will surely work well on my kde desktop

A community driven link aggregator site. Think of a cross between Reddit and a forum. It was one of the biggest sites/communities in the 2000s.

> Think of a cross between Reddit and a forum.

That's not quite right: Digg was closer to a pure link-sharing site, being able to comment and discuss was lackluster.

Digg <-> Reddit <-> Webforum

That's what it was but what will this reboot be?

besides "It was one of the biggest sites/communities in the 2000s" you're describing HN

Kinda like HN but you could share political news without it getting flagged.

> Why did Rust break through, for example, while so many other excellent languages didn't.

Unfortunately, a lot of this is just enterprise sponsorship. Rust had Mozilla's backing. React had FB's backing, while Vue doesn't. And so on.

There are of course, many other reasons as well, but to me this seems to be a critical one.

Question for the experts here; What would be a SOTA TTS that can run on an average laptop (32GB RAM, 4GB VRAM). I just want to attach a TTS to my SLM output, and get the highest possible voice quality/ human resembleness.
