  • No one in the AI industry is making money. They are all burning through venture capital just to stay afloat. They don’t have viable economic a plan, the pricing they would have to charge in order to make a profit makes the product unappealing to the vast majority of people. So either they continuously subsidize the product in which case they don’t make profit, or they charge what they actually need to charge and then they don’t have any customers.

    It’s a no wind scenario created entirely by the fact that they are trying to put an in-development technology out into public before it’s really ready.

    They’re doing a Tesla.

    Apparently Ukraine also has in their constitution that elections cannot be held while an invasion is in progress. So even if one were inclined to think like the idiot above they’re just following the rules that have already been established.

    Zelensky has actually publicly said to Trump, that if the United States can guarantee 60 days of ceasefire (apparently that’s how long it would take to hold an election) than they can have an election. Knowing, that of course that the United States can’t guarantee anything when it comes to Russia, because Trump is Putins lil bitch.

    It’s also worth noting that historically, populations are hesitant to replace governments during a time of occupation even if the administration had been relatively unpopular prior to the invasion. Not that I think he was unpopular. It is generally understood that during a war the government don’t have an awful lot to do with military decisions so changing the government is not productive.

    The only reason Russia would agree to a ceasefire is if they thought the result would return a pro-russia politician, which is of course unlikely to happen.

    If you want the actual answer it’s because you can’t. There is very little voltage going through those cables, and there is no data line at all.

    If you wanted to recharge your phone through a cable like that it would take about 10 years.

    You can get high quality armoured recharge cables, they’re not even all that expensive, you just don’t get them in the box. Apple don’t even give you a charger these days, so is it really all that hard to believe that they would give you the cheapest version of the cable?
