I moved my personal computer to Linux Mint and it’s pretty much the same experience as Windows except my i7-6700 works fine with Linux as opposed to being hamstrung into not working with Windows 11.

The books my wife reads have different results for love triangles. Wonder how freaky Lucas would have been if he could have gotten away with it.

Microsoft wants you to own a computer and pay for their office app on subscription. The others want you to just let go of hardware and be a part of their AI ecosystems.

If she’s murdered 5 people, I’ll honestly probably want to stay away.

Exabytes. Petabytes are easily surpassed by a lot of companies these days.

They drove a large swath of stores out of business. It’s vastly more difficult

Yep. The courts could sort of solve this with a large rubber stamp that says “Nope”, but our court system has been replaced by a tall Australian Marsupial.

Aileen is pretty busy these days I hear.

That’s insulting to rocks.

A lot of animated movies have super star studded voiceovers. The pay is pretty good for these actors and they don’t have to spend hours on makeup and wardrobe. They show up in regular clothes, talk into a mic for a couple hours then go home and cash a fat check. Vastly easier than actual acting roles.

I’d have a stern talking to the lad, while he’s eating the biggest wad of cotton candy on whatever mega-rollercoaster is closest to our house.

Once it’s automated it’s the same either way. Probably something even vibe code could pull off.

I’ve not missed a Veritasium video in a long time 😄. I’m sure that RAM is much easier to produce, but DRR5 is pretty complex still, and is what has been snapped up in whole by these AI companies. I’m actually wondering if we’ll see a resurgence of DDR4 motherboards, as those fabs are likely around still, just likely more idle if used at all.

I’m fairly certain that spinning up RAM fabs isn’t super quick nor something that doesn’t require the most cutting edge tech.

China is definitely ahead of the US in a lot of tech, but unless they do invade Taiwan they might not have quite a deep enough bench.

My goal is to waste as little time as possible. I once timed it so as to not break stride till on the jetway.

Sounds like perfect timing to me. Everyone else spent an hour+ sitting in an airport chair and you got extra sleep.

Lol. I often drink 3 cups of coffee before leaving for the office, where I usually drink a big mug-o sludge. At one point I was drinking a full 12 cup pot daily.

There are plenty of MAGA sheep, plus Teslas still seem to be super popular among the transplants from India in my area to keep the company around for a long time. SpaceX & Starlink have essentially no competition and Musk will just pivot.

I’m too lazy to look it up, but yeah, aren’t these Shaheed “missiles” really slow and level, making them targets for vastly cheaper bullets vs missiles?
