Oh, I just block those.

Well isn’t THAT interesting

Well there is. Depending on the space. It can evaporate to a point where there is equilibrium between the gas and liquid.

All that being said, you and I are thinking on a pretty small scale. We’re thinking of liquid cooling on a home PC. For that large a scale, I’m sure the cooling system is pumping from a large reservoir to consistently keep that large a system cool. So there very much is room for evaporation in such a system.

And again, the researchers have found this to be the case. I see what you’re saying, but I think you’re conceiving of a much smaller, closed loop system, where on a server farm, they are using something much more efficient than a closed loop system. I dunno, though. I’m thinking of what you’re saying and considering the findings, and trying to conceive of the way that it’s happening. That’s pretty much where I land on it

Evaporation, is my understanding. Even sealed containers have evaporation in heat conditions.

I downloaded it on this rec and I’ve been playing the hell out of it the past day. Sweet game that’s filled the last of us void I’ve been in since finishing those games. Def different, but similar genres and themes (so far anyway).

That’s a world I’d like to live in. Where asshole grifters could just die of shame. No more grifters.

Ren's most recent work focuses precisely on how AI is increasing water use. A large language model like OpenAI's popular ChatGPT-3 must first be trained, a data and energy intensive process that can also boost water use. Ren found that training GPT-3 in Microsoft's high-end data centers can directly evaporate 700,000 liters, or about 185,000 gallons, of water.

Once the AI model is in use, each inference, or response to queries, also requires energy and cooling, and that, too, is thirsty work. Ren and his colleagues estimate that GPT-3 needs to "drink" a 16-ounce bottle of water for roughly every 10-50 responses it makes, and when the model is fielding billions of queries, that adds up.

The researchers are saying otherwise. I tend to believe them

That’s not true.

Utterly brutal for all life on planet earth.

The joke is that this massive beautiful tree was cut down no matter how long it’s lived or how many things it survived, only to be felled by these jokers. And they’re oblivious to the irony of pointing out it’s survival after just killing it

Swear to god

As is everything.

Oh Jesus Christ. That’s the last thing we need

Maybe we need drastic action to be taken to protect the environment. E.L.F. needs to come back

A big part of this is the shallow takes on feminism that are so pervasive.

And to be clear, it’s not feminism itself that is the problem. It’s the complete lack of nuance we have when discussing topics as a society. The idiots outnumber the thoughtful people, and when an idea becomes mainstream, the dumbest possible take is the loudest and the easiest to spread. So actual feminism got out-yelled by idiots taking the idea to the most illogical extreme.

And that leads to light misandry. And even if it is light, it’s so pervasive that young boys now feel like they’re being overlooked and ignored, demonized and generalized with the worst men have to offer.

And again, I have to stress, that this isn’t because of feminism, it’s because of the lack of nuance surrounding all discussion, but in this case, the discussion around men/feminist issues. It’s much easier to spread “all men are garbage” than it is to spread “women have historically faced complex issues that, together, are a societal stumbling block resulting in less favor in everyday life and a harder, more complicated existence.”

And when this is the case, men like these assholes step in to tell boys, “fuck women, you are a king and you deserve everything.” And what little boy isn’t going to be empowered by that? We need to have space for men in modern society that is supportive and open, because right now the only “support for young men” comes from assholes trying to capitalize on the complicated feelings of suddenly feeling like they’re being unfairly overlooked.

Now, that also has to take into account that if the boys are ever overlooked, it’s because there have been centuries of unequal treatment for women, and that has to start to be righted somewhere. And it’s only been in the last, like, 30-50 years. And in all that time, we haven’t taken the high road to equality, we’ve taken the easy road hyperbole and simplistic solutions, which doesn’t solve the existing problem, it just gives us new ones—like this exact problem we’re dealing with now.

Political points, plain and simple. The right loves to fear monger over brown people, so in the uncommon occurrence that an illegal immigrant does something truly bad, the right wing grift-o-matic kicks into high gear. The affected people start seeing dollar signs and the politicians see an opportunity to scapegoat an entire group and scare their base into forfeiting more power for the illusion of “security.”
