That guy is ripped! If he also has the skills to handle weapons, he would win just about any thundervote.

I propose we switch to preferential voting, rolling dice or thunderdome for deciding these matters.

Personally, I would really like to see Trump wielding a chainsaw, but PV is my second choice.

LOL. That acronym. They brought this on themselves.

Hmm. I guess there is a category that isn’t entirely premeditated and intentional, nor is it a freak accident either. It’s sort of like an accident, but it’s caused be reckless stupidity, as opposed to something beyond your control.

As people have noticed, there are lots of reckless decisions that can ruin your life. I guess that fits the description of what OP was looking for.

But doesn’t that count as an accident? Kids who play with fireworks don’t cram a steel can full of black powder imagining how cool it would be to loose your fingers and eyes.

And why does the government need to have so many people inspecting industrial facilities? Can’t a single person handle the entire country? On second thought, that takes money, and the goal was to cut spending. Just have the companies send reports every 20 years and we’re all good. I’m sure they’ll do a great job with notifying the government if something violates regulations.

It’s a power efficiency thing. According to the article, a GPU gets the job done, but uses more energy to get there. Probably not a big deal unless charging opportunities are scarce.

So, if you own a coal plant and the government is spending time and money on regulating your livelihood, then that would be an obvious thing to cut from the budget.

”However, if it is performance you are concerned about, "it's important to note that GPUs still far outperform NPUs in terms of raw performance," Jessop said, while NPUs are more power-efficient and better suited for running perpetually.”

Ok, so if you want to run your local LLM on your desktop, use your GPU. If you’re doing that on a laptop in a cafe, get a laptop with an NPU. If you don’t care about either, you don’t need to think about these AI PCs.

Tragedy or comedy? Why not both?

There are so many contradictions with his plans and reality, that it’s just wild. Then again, that’s how pre-election fluff talk works.
