I’m more willing to forgive not getting Baizhu for the promise of unlimited cheap energy…

Is United Express actually United? I thought those tended to be a regional carrier using the name under license.

I’d expect the labour friction to be still worse; I was peripherally involved with such a firm 20 years ago and know they had terrible problems with staff retention, mostly because they wouldn’t pay enough to retain people after they got fed up with the free-standby-flight privileges.

If I’ve learned anything from GTA… just drive the news van around and hit pedestrians until you make budget.

I was under the impression thar’s what the mid-grade petrol was for; it had a high-enough octane factor to be non-knocking in engines designed for leaded.

Why would you want to turn back?

I think the appeal is that you probably don’t need a huge CPU for a lot of workloads-- just something to run an OS, handle talking to the outside world, and configure the GPU/NPU complexes.

I could imagine a something like a Quadro card that had a small RISC-V core built in as a freestanding device, no motherboard needed. Even if the CPU ran like a Core 2 Duo, that would be sufficient for purpose, but it will be a lot easier to license an appropriate RISC-V core than an x86 one.

I feel like the Atmega range asks an awful lot for what you get in 2024.

Of course, that could be because I designed a project around the Teensy++ which was always pricey and promptly disappeared from stock. I redesigned to use a CH32V305 breakout instead- 1/3 the price and probably way more performance which my terrible code is just busy-waiting into the ether.

I like WCH’s product line in general; it’s full of zany stuff.

And before that, a bad firmware flash could garble the MAC.

So next they’ll use AI-generated infantry?

Why can’t we subsidize American carmakers more?

I meant more how Milei is selling it to Argentina. The absurd political overweight of the Cuban self-exiles in Florida is well known.

I’d love to know what the domestic spin is on this.

What specifics is he promising this will deliver domestically? I can’t imagine Buenos Aires is on Putin’s shortlist even without the threst of NATO, and it’s not like Americans are goung to start beating the doors down for Argentine imports.

There’s tactful good relations, and then there’s “sempai notice me”. Although, the Cosplay Crusader may well be familiar with that trope.

I liked ASrock when they were in the ECS tier of quirky and weird. Got a Socket 939 board with the ULi M1695 chipset that was really nifty.

Then I had an awful experience with an AM3 board that claimed to run a FX-8350, until they edited their support list.

I grudgingly chose them for AM5 because it was $50 cheaper for the featured I wanted, and it’s been okay, aside from me breaking the x16 slot clip due to hamfistedly removing a shipping-container sized GPU.

I believe “headpats” is the only valid answer.

She may also need an elecyrical socket.

I wonder if part of the emotional risk is due to the general social stigma attached to porn. It becomes something that has to be explained and justified.

If done to grand excess, deepfakes could crash the market on that, so to speak. Yeah, everyone saw your face on an AI-generated video. They also saw Ruth Bader Ginsburg, their Aunt Matilda, and for good measure, Barry Bonds, and that was just a typical Thursday.

The shock value is burnt through, and “I got deepfaked” ends with a social stigma on the level of “I got in a shouting match with a cashier” or “I stumbled into work an hour late recently.”

I took a laptop to college in 2003 for note-taking. It was very rare, maybe 1 or 2 in the lecture hall. In a CompSci programme.

It also creates no precedent. You lose, you pay out one angry customer, but the next one who tries, you get a fresh attempt to convince the arbitrators you were right.

In a real court, the first loss woukd be leveraged against you by everyone else in similar straits, even if it wasn’t a class action.

Why can’t it be sold or released as a “private servers only client”

I think there might have been a secondary shift.

Era 1: we have things like media queries or some unholy Javascript hoisting to adjust layout as the page size changes, But the site targets 1024 pixel wide or larger screens as the default and subtracts or hides items as it shrinks.

Era 2: we kept the tools but assumed a 350-pixel wide phone is default. When you take it to a desktop, it reflows the text wider but doesn’t add back, for example, the menus that were hidden behind a hamburger icon on mobile.
