Does Closing Your Eyes Actually Make You #Trip Harder?
Science says closing your eyes can shape the entire course of your #LSD trip, down to your #brainwaves.
Calculating water/energy usage for "AI" per token is a bit problematic: A data center has a massive base load even if nobody uses it just by sheer existence. And since we have no actual data for any of the popular platforms all numbers floating around are problematic and not very useful.
Like how much power does one of those servers NVIDIA cards really save if its utilization is only 50%? And are the overhead costs actually counted?

Periodic reminder that the literal text of laws are actually full of phrases that have specific legal meanings settled by case law, and in absence of overriding legislation, you need a lawyer or a lot of legal experience to unpack what is actually being said.

This ain't legal advice, but in situations where a kidnapper refuses to identify themselves, show a warrant, or even a badge number, I suspect a sufficiently white bystander might not be convicted on interference charges if they did something like a citizen's arrest of a suspicious out-of-town paramilitary type who was in the process of an extrajudicial kidnapping.

Ich habe mich schon sehr lange nicht mehr mit Fernsehern beschäftigt: Gibt es Unterschiede zwischen den halbwegs aktuellen, was die Bösartigkeit der Datensammelei betrifft? Welche?
Verfolgen die wirklich Augen- und sonstige Bewegungen?
