They’re both essentially vaporizing a metal with high heat to deposit upon a substrate above. Early smelting was just looking to purify the metal and remove impurities, and now we’ve refined that same technique with strictly controlled parameters to deposit exactly what metal we want to have where, to build the microscopic features of modern computer chips.
One thing that really got my attention when I studied nanotechnology is how many original technologies we still use regularly, just in a refined/modified form (Chemical Vapour Deposition, a technique used heavily in the production of many ordinary products from computer chips to chip bags, is fundamentally the exact same technology first used to smelt ore). It actually wouldn’t be hard at all to transition to lower impact technologies in a lot of places if people were okay with not electrifying/connecting everything possible.
From what I’ve been hearing, a lot of groups that aren’t exactly considered part of the traditional left/right political divide.
Really? It’s the far right they’re worried about?

Nobody said a bias can’t be stupid.
That shacking up with random people can/should be perfectly safe.
Because idiots salivate any time something novel promises to confirm their biases.
Lets do it after lunch then?
I do find the similarities between the function of AI and the function of a corporation to be quite interesting…
I want to take all the fun out of making games.
Interesting that his mental state is actually getting press now. Wonder how long it will be before THOSE videos are acknowledged.
Is it too much to ask
Are you willing to deliver them consequences if they don’t do it the way you want?
What? You thought this conflict was actually real?
It would seem that we shall be requiring you peasants to give up another 10% of your daily carbon footprint to meet the demands of our new machine overlord.
Bring back support for Windows 7 and Windows 10 will die overnight.
Get this game. Endless Legend is a good deal at full price.
As your body shuts down, everything you try fails to work, one after another, and you learn every lie you ever told yourself about who/what you are. Once your consciousness has broken down to a previous state you can start again with another life, eventually forgetting everything that happened before.
