    The personal information is blacked out... and Elmo still seem to block people for 12 hours when you share the link.

    What illegal actions? I did some research instead of blindly following our so-called genius who claims it's against Brazilian constitutional law because Starlink is a separate enti…

    The ridiculously high prices of GPUs have really taken the fun out of hardware for me. I used to follow hardware developments closely, but now I upgrade much less often so that als…

    Is the issue that they don’t provide a platform to Nazis—sometimes literally Nazis or descendants of Nazi collaborators, as we see here in mainland Europe? I’ve seen him retweet a …

    I can’t comment for other countries but here the local Elon shills are mostly supporters of parties that are sometimes literally descendants of nazi collaborators that see him as t…

    I think it’s an extreme version of Schadenfreude. Wasn’t that also something that came up in his biography that he is addicted to drama? To be honest I don’t think he believes this…

    I got the chills and it made me even a bit ill. Musk reminds me so much of my abusive father. He's the victim. The fact that his child doesn't want to have anything with him is not…

    Would you hire Trump for any role in your company?

    The fixed schedule is the case for most EU countries, in Belgium every 4 year we go out and vote. The only possible way to vote earlier is when a government falls and they write ou…

    It helps me to code (or helped me with mathematical concepts that I find difficult to implement or would take me a lot of time) but then again I use it for generating mainly graphi…

    I've noticed that when using a language model for rephrasing text it also sometimes seem to miss important details because it clearly has no real understanding of the text. It's no…

    Don't know in the States but here in Europe I think it will hurt Tesla. The only ones that are really supporting Elon are the same people who deny climate change and are against EV…

    You should really read the book “How democracies die” for some insights and signals how it begins. Maybe it’s because I’m from Europe and there are numerous examples (Germany, Spai…

    The situation in Europe is worsening rapidly, and it's not just in Greece—it's a trend across several countries. The rise of nationalist parties has increased the influence of corp…

    In Europe we don't have any alternative to go too for now. The day that I have a bluesky code or threads is available I will drop it in a heartbeat.

    I don't think this has a lot to do with the open source spirit but the fact that competitors like Bambulab are eating their lunch. That seems to rub them the wrong way. I also see …

    There is a do not call me register here in Belgium. Not using this list and calling someone on the list, results in heavy fines.

    The Atomium in Brussels is the same... It became so ridiculous that lawmakers introduced a Freedom of Panorama Bill here in Belgium. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomium#Worldwide…
