Literally the most absurd offer in history of universe. You pay $150/month to have some extra noise and space taken away from you. While they install batteries in your home, it is for their use, and takes up more space. All you get is a phone app that can turn off lights in other rooms.
So they’re distributing their data center into various neighborhoods and therefore are leeching on power lines and everything else there. Kind of clever but also sneaky an slimy.
I see they’re still not giving up on that bubble.
Consumers: “We don’t want AI data centers anywhere near our homes!”
Nvidia: “Ohhhh, you want them as close to your homes as physically possible?”
your comment did make me laugh but people might be more open if yheir electricity cost is subsidized.
Nope… Fuck Ai… No one needs LLMs…
Lmao no.
I am people and I’m here to say, no. No, people would not be more open to subsidized power. why?
ask the farmers how that’s working out for them right now.
I’d say the Agro industry are still racking up decent profits, depending on where they are located.
didn’t say agro industry, I said farmers.
you wouldn’t ask the corporate builders if they’re ok with power subsidies on the houses they build…
Funny thing, they’re the same
funny thing, no, they aren’t.
love the confidence though!
Oh you sweet summer child….
What I said has absolutely nothing to do with confidence and everything with knowing the truth.
Farmers have been rioting over legislation that hurts the agro industry. Farmers collectives that organize these riots have been deeply in bed and funded by the agro industry as well as far right groups
These “farmers collectives” are nothing more than the modern equivalent of the Sturmabteilung of the agro industry.
The real value in this is the free electricity and residential proxy network.
Honestly everything I’ve heard in the news today is fucking insane.
Want to browse the internet from today forward: download the Google Captcha App on verified Android devices and prove your identity to Google first.
Yeah, that’s Google’s new recaptcha system.

Is this for real?
😢
100% real.
All reCAPTCHAs are converting to Google Fraud Defence automatically.
reCAPTCHA is adding new challenge types including Mobile Device challenge through the reCAPTCHA app, which only runs on iOS and Google Play Services on certified Android (Not Graphene, Lineage, mobile Linux).
They’re also adding camera video challenges, so you have to prove you’re a human by showing your face and doing hand gestures on demand. And they’re adding features to require biometric verification.
Plus, reCAPTCHA is now fully integrated into Google Analytics (funny how that works), so you can “reach the right audiences”.
So we’ve gone from “prove your not a bot” to “prove who you are, link your browser to your phone, and show us your face and then we’ll let you see our 15 million websites”.
reCAPTCHA will continue to be the core bot defense pillar of the broader Fraud Defense platform. Existing reCAPTCHA customers are automatically Fraud Defense customers, with no migration required, no action needed, and no change to pricing. Your existing site keys and integrations remain exactly as they are today.
This needs it’s own post not buried in the comments. Thanks for the headsup.
What if you can’t do the hand gestures because you have a disability of some kind?
You get told to download the app from a device that Google gets paid for and have to share your identity with them.
Oooh so they will have these high-end GPUs just sitting there on house walls? What tools would be needed to unmount one, and how heavy is it to transport? Asking for a friend…
I already have a “mini data center in my house”. We could use an anonymous shared computing platform like Folding@Home for extra income or something.
Anyone using a Span product is dumb.
