Thorn Wishes Talon posted:https://epic.uchicago.edu/news/why-do-we-import-russian-and-other-foreign-oil-when-we-have-a-lot-of-it-in-the-u-s/ so what you said is: "the oil that the US produces is a different type of oil that US refineries aren't equipped to process. that's why we import oil despite producing a lot of it ourselves." what this article says is: "Even though a lot of that light sweet crude is coming from Texas, where the refineries are, the U.S. imports foreign oil in order to make use of the existing infrastructure." you see how this are totally incongruent, right? there is a lot of mismatch in refining capacities and different types of oils being produced globally, but most of what is drawn in the US is also refined here

Lol were hosed Bar Ran Dun posted:it depends on source Reuters was this year: Ah, so only energy sources being imported vs exported. Even not counting oil for plastic, the cost of like, just driving trucks and boats around, and powering the factories that make poo poo thats imported to the US, is probably going to skyrocket once US can't export as much energy Vox Nihili posted:with Canada included it's just flat out true, we extract an insane amount of fossil fuels in the US and Canada Probably won't help unless we also ship that oil overseas to China to help them make all of our consumer poo poo

The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.

Can’t be that since that claim has been floating around since 2021 and another board member was fired too. I think it’s because he did something to steal money or whatever, since that is the only thing the tech ghouls care about .

I love how we're reaching the singularity - of bubbles. Can't even keep the grift going for more than a year now.

Do you actually think the US or really anybody else is going to even slow down a little on burning fossil fuel?
