I like that the seahorse has little landfeets.
So I didn’t know how to respond to your question other than saying, again, that the clip is taken out of context. It bothered me though because I also wanted to know.
Well, it turns out the streams from the 1+1 TV channel are on YouTube, including the inauguration day stream. Of course, I didn’t want to watch 5 hours of it but the clip in the OP thankfully has a timestamp: 21:55. And, what a surprise, if you go to that timestamp in the YouTube video (around 3:10), there is no such discussion about Elon Musk taking place. Instead it’s an interview with a correspondent on site:
Now, there are multiple channels under the 1+1 Media Group control but the decorations are the same in the OP clip and the YouTube stream and the top left corner channel title is 1+1 Marathon, which is a specific and unique TV channel. Coupled with the fact that no Ukrainian news outlets mention anyone saying anything like in the clip, I’d now say that not only the clip is out of context but also likely fake.
Yeah, the precursor to Wagner was called Slavonic Corps, which is of course the least Nazi name for a military organisation imaginable.
The saddest part for me is that even grassroots Russian communist spaces fall into phobic rhetoric when it comes to immigrants or queer people. I also can’t imagine things getting better at this point.
“Both are the same but one is maybe slightly better” doesn’t quite ring the same as “absolutely crushing Nazis wherever they can”, does it?
Anyone, especially anyone into dialectical materialism, who lived in Russia or otherwise heavily interacted with the Russian world will tell you that the issues of xenophobia, race supremacy, nationalism, revanchism, monarchy and empire idealisation, etc. run deep in the Russian society and government (similarities to a certain other European country in the 1930s unintentional). Fascism is not a single wart on the body of Russia, it’s a disease that has spread throughout. Framing it as something that “Russia could improve” is not wrong but is misleading – like saying that Christian fanaticism is something that the US could improve when it is one of the defining features of the US as a state and country.
Yeah, except the Russian Nazis, those are fine 🙄
Sometimes people on this website do buy into Russian propaganda too much.
Yes, this is actually what they said. @gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net is right though, it’s taken out of context.
These reductions in costs must be exciting to investors (you know, the 60 year old dipshits from the original comment you replied to) but they do not substantiate your claim that “this tech is legit and currently improving at an alarming rate” or any other beautiful epithet you used. LLMs remain hallucinating state machines with a probability attached to any word they spit out, and marginal efficiency improvements don’t make them any more exciting to the end user.
Lmao literally the paper in the link you shared says (emphasis mine) “DeepSeek- R1 achieves performance comparable to OpenAI-o1-1217 on reasoning tasks” next to a graph that shows that the benchmark performance is roughly the same as OpenAI – marginally better on some benchmarks and marginally worse on others.
It is the same stuff as “Google’s botched AI” but now partially open-sourced and slightly more efficient, the latter being the reason why it “upended the entire industry”.
FIY the way people in the US use “ethnic” as a descriptor for things that are unfamiliar to them is also racism/xenophobia. If you can’t see why, think about why nobody calls Chipotle or Olive Garden “ethnic restaurants” despite their menus narrowly corresponding to cuisines of certain ethnicities.
I was intentionally silly in some parts :)
Regarding the possessive though, I didn’t expect what you wrote to follow Chinese grammar and, seeing how “my” and “I” are different words in English, didn’t consider that 我 could also mean “my”.
Also, why not 但 for “but” and 於/于 for “about”?
I have examined on top outside this askation a number of times before, & I commonly closeation is that you could do them, in outside not very good.
That’s how Chinese does loanwords in general, e.g., 夹克 jiākè jacket, 咖啡 kāfēi coffee, 布尔乔亚 bùěrqiáoyà bourgeoisie. None of these words have characters in them that align with what the word itself means, they just sound similar to the borrowed word.
Me but I don’t want to return to the glory days because there are genuinely many things to criticise the USSR for. I want new gay space communism; we must learn from the past but look to the future.
I hope I didn’t confuse anyone, thank you for clarifying (and the lessons) ❤️
Obviously depends on where you are from but Hebrew speakers I know will pronounce ה like this (h) and ח like this (χ). The difference between these two sounds is similar (I’ve chosen this word carefully to avoid claiming it is the same) to the difference between ح and خ. There is no equivalent to the actual ح sound in Hebrew as far as I know.
No, more like ה.
The difference between ה and ח is similar to the difference between ح and خ.
