That’s socialism!
That’s socialism!
I’d be worried the service that suggests a roofing company or Italian restaurant would go to the highest bidder. That is, it would only contact the big nation wide chains, who pay apple & amazon, over the small local companies that give better service for half the price.
That’s already the case when you use Google maps or Google search, but it feels like you’d have less control by giving the AI a single instruction
Your smartphone probably has a comparable amount of processing power to some of the earlier mining farms. May as well just mine the bitcoin
That means you would doom yourself to die alone…
Or you have to spend your whole life building a boat, collecting food and being able to navigate, just to rejoin civilisation
Depends what areas of education you mean. I think the most important areas people need to know more about in order to better the world as a whole are literacy, numeracy and world issues (war, current politics, climate change, etc).
Spending $100B to make university free would just accelerate a new problem that the world is facing: overeducation. Now it’s harder to get a job without a college degree as a minimum, especially above minimum wage, even though the skills gained in the degree are not what is actually in demand or being used in whatever job someone ends up with.
Granted that’s mainly a problem in the USA at the moment, and with $100B you could also fund a lot of R&D so people studying STEM end up in STEM jobs bettering the world.
I agree that fediverse is only a few million. But the fediverse is also highly populated with refugees from twitter and reddit at the moment, who just want another stable and popular social platform similar to what they’ve always used.
If anything, the fediverse will have people with stronger opinions: either they’re willing to change social media because of a couple bad changes (and aren’t too attached to the fediverse), or they’re hardcore fediverse fans who are less likely to move to threads than your average twitter user.
If we assume it to be a 50% split, then meta has a chance at stealing half the fediverse by promising a larger user base, thus more content, but on the false premise that Threads will be backwards compatible with the fediverse forever.
Certainly. ffprobe
is also a good command to check what audio codec is in the video
With ffmpeg installed, you can extract just the audio. Here is a sample command usage:
ffmpeg -i video_file.mp4 audio_file.mp3
Time for some user agent spoofing
