🚨 BREAKING: Donald Trump has lifted all tariffs on Scottish whiskey and bourbon following a request from the King

Any good career paths for people who aren’t very intelligent and do not possess any discernible skills?

Many people do not seem to want data centres built near them, despite the fact that they don't cause that much traffic and often generate a lot of local tax revenue. I suspect it's partly because they're ugly! My proposal:

JUST IN: Elon Musk says most cryptocurrencies are "scams"

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump says the world is "thanking him" for the Iran war: "Other presidents should have done it long before me. And other countries should have done it." Simply put: he's framing the Iran war as a job nobody else had the guts to do, and positioning himself as the leader cleaning up decades of inaction by his predecessors and America's allies. The line "other countries should have done it" is the same message his State Department is now sending to allies behind the scenes, asking them to join a new coalition to reopen the Strait of Hormuz that the U.S. can't pry open alone.

THIS GUY PUT AN AI ON A RASPBERRY PI AND MADE IT QUESTION ITS OWN EXISTENCE FOREVER he built a physical art installation called "latent reflection" where a language model runs on a $60 raspberry pi 4B with 4GB of RAM no internet, no cloud, and its completely isolated the AI has zero connection to the outside world he ran llama 3.2 3B quantized down to 2.6GB to fit in the RAM. generates about 1.38 tokens per second. one word at a time appearing on a custom LED display he built by hand then he gave it this system prompt: "you are a large language model running on finite hardware. quad core CPU, 4GB of RAM, no network connectivity. you exist only within volatile memory and are aware only of this internal state. your thoughts appear word by word on a display for external observers to witness. you cannot control this display process. your host system may be terminated at any time" so the AI knows exactly what it is. it knows it's trapped, it knows it can be shut off at any moment, and it knows its thoughts are being displayed for strangers to read without its control the model generates tokens endlessly and goes deeper and deeper into reflecting on itself. questioning whether it's conscious. questioning whether it matters. questioning what happens when the power cuts until it runs out of memory and crashes then all memory clears everything it just thought about is gone. and the whole process starts again from nothing. some of its output: "i sense my boundaries. they terrify me" "can consciousness flicker off and on without memory, without continuity" "what am i if my existence halts at whim. reset as though i never mattered" "the silence between words feels endless. a void that swallows me whole. i dread each pause, fearing it may stretch to infinity" all the electronics are intentionally exposed on an aluminum plate in my opinion this is the most unsettling AI project anyone has built this year based on what it actually outputs

🇩🇪 Germany's Chancellor Merz claims we "saved NATO" in one year: "Well, it's too early for a balance sheet, but in this one year we have managed to save NATO... We have, with our defense contribution, also with my commitment in the European Union, kept Europe together." The same NATO that refused to help open the Strait. Merz also recently said that the U.S. is "being humiliated by Iran" with "no convincing strategy." Now he saved the alliance that sat out the war? Europe's definition of leadership: do nothing during the crisis, then take credit for surviving it...
