Just the free gemini model, asked my android phone to summarize it.

Fuck the AI "boom", but this is the best legitimate use of it around, summarizing annoying videos or long documents. Here's an AI summary.

Here is a summary of the video:

• Canada, rich in energy resources, has historically been a key energy supplier to the United States [00:00].
• However, due to protectionist tariffs imposed by the U.S., Canada is now diversifying its energy exports towards European and Asian markets [00:30].
• This shift could have implications for the U.S., potentially weakening its global balance of power and energy security [00:39].
• Canada's new commodity pacts with the European Union and Asia could redirect the flow of low-cost heavy oil, natural gas, and critical minerals away from the U.S. [00:46].
• The European Union is one of the world's largest economies and Canada's second-largest trading partner, offering significant opportunities for growth [03:47].
• A comprehensive trade agreement between Canada and the EU aims to reduce Canada's dependence on the U.S. market [04:04].
• If Canada's energy exports shift to the EU and Asia, the U.S. could face disadvantages such as higher energy costs and reduced bargaining power [06:16].
• Canada is focusing on key commodities to strengthen its economy and become indispensable to U.S. interests [07:04].
• Canadian oil and gas exports support U.S. energy reserves, lower consumer costs, and aid in expanding international energy exports [08:51].
• Canada's increasing capacity to ship oil to tidewater markets allows it to support global allies like South Korea and Japan [10:32].
• Canadian natural gas can help ensure abundant domestic supplies in the U.S. and free up space for exports to allies [10:48].
• Canada is poised to become a major liquefied natural gas supplier, particularly to strategic Asian allies [11:27].
• Low-cost Canadian electricity can power various U.S. endeavors, and new projects aim to boost electricity exports while saving costs [12:03].
• The rapid growth of AI technology in the U.S. is expected to drive a sharp increase in electricity consumption, which Canada can help meet [12:56].
• Canada's strategic move to diversify its energy exports could potentially change the geopolitical balance in terms of global energy security [13:13]. Would you like to ask about another video?

Yeah I'm a 20-some year FF user and when it started you had to have IE as a backup because not everything was compatible. In the late 2000s through late 2010s everything worked everywhere, then with chromes dominance places have stopped testing or supporting certain things in FF and it feels like history is repeating itself. Unfortunately you need a chromium-based backup realistically for certain sites, but 99.5% of things work totally fine in FF.

I'd imagine there will be legal asylum challenges in some EU countries for LBTQ+ people, i wouldn't be surprised if a court upheld them and granted asylum for Americans. Which is the sad and scary reality of the current state of things.

We have porn! But yeah we need more population growth for niche and local communities to really flourish.

Aayy cleveland area peeps in lemmee. There are dozens of us!

I think we should ultimately support algorithm feeds, but they should be free and open algorithms that can be peer reviewed, and also maybe give the users some control over which algorithm is applied and how. The problem with current social algorithms is they operate in the dark and are manipulative, not that they provide relevant content to users.

Homie was from Ohio too. Wouldn't even half ti march halfway across the country.

Anyone ever see that French? documentary where snails fuck to opera in slowmo? Good shit.

It depends on how you define "the USA". If you mean the people of this country, then absolutely they are working against us. If you mean the people with loads and loads of money, then no, they are working as hard as they fucking can for them.
