  • On-device Apple Intelligence training seems to be based on controversial technology

    Thanks for the reminder. I just checked to verify that the Share switch was off on all my devices.

  • China escalates US tariff war by halting rare earth mineral exports

    DAalsethDAalseth
    China is NOT the only place on earth that has rare earth elements. Large deposits are in Canada, the US, Australia, and elsewhere. It’s just that China was the cheapest place to get them so the other sources have not been developed. It will take time to get the operations going, but the process was started during the first Trump term.

    The order applies to the initial 10% and the follow-up orders after China applied their own tariffs, but it has an odd specificity. The exclusion order is downstream of the initial order, leaving open the possibility of a new tariff on these products.
    I’ll be honest, I have no idea what this means. 


    In short, it isn't a permanent repeal, where it could have been. It's a modification to the original order.
    Ah, so like TikTok where he keeps the threat available. Typical. 

    Thanks.

    This ‘president’ is a disaster to the world. He has no real strategy, economists are baffled by his idiotic actions and constant flip-flopping. 

    Even more so, his entire corrupt administration have clearly benefited from their own actions through insider trading. They belong in jail and their assets being taken. Unfortunately in the USA, the rich are untouchable. You can buy yourself out of the law there.
    Absolutely true. Corruption run amok. 
    I find it interesting that around 30 years ago Star Trek invented the Ferengi, a completely corrupt, mercantile society whose morality was driven only by profit. They were created as a parody and a warning. Now we have someone with Ferengi sensibilities leading the US. What’s next, creating the Torment Nexus for fun and profit?
