Just a regular Joe.
I’m happy with my Samsung S90C (oled). I didn’t find any non-smart-tv options that I liked after my 18 year old Samsung TV died, and after using a PC monitor and PC speakers for a few weeks while researching options, I settled on this one, which was on my shortlist and on sale at a nearby bricks’n’mortar store.
Even in a well lit room, I’m very happy with it. I also use the apps to stream content, so one less box is needed. Let’s hope it lasts 18+ years too.
Not to mention the younger generation with no work ethic, unlike in my day… 5am start 6 days a week… builds character… then school… uphill… both ways… respected our elders… bought first house with 22… kids now… no respect… video games… no work ethic… living with parents at 30… avocado on toast… no house… AVOCADO ON TOAST.
English aint Lojban, if you know what I mean.
When you have cloud providers growing faster than the region’s grid capacity, something has to give … throttle growth there, or plan for mega growth? I guess it helps that nuclear is green again. 😁
PvE seems like a DLC feature to me (and hence should be included with EoD), but could have been marketed as a subscription instead, with the new edition including it for life. ie. Make it feel like renting a server. Even their backdown seems like a bad business move on their part.
The real problematic part, which they don’t seem to be addressing (or are they?): the scavs-don’t-target-you-at-distance thing is clearly over the top and pay to win, as is the invite-your-friends-to-a-live-match feature, unless it’s PvE mode only and I misunderstood. edit: it looks like it will be PvE only now.
It’s fine that it came from a private company, but the contracts with the Government must be solid, and the national security obligations 100% clear.
Judge: “lmao no, new bill is now half” for reasons that included the use of ChatGPT.
Meanwhile the prompt: Given X man-hours at $rate plus expenses of $expenses, and a padding multiplier of 4, generate a legal cost report in the format expected by the court. /s
It’s Freedom® these days. It took a little while for the application to be processed.
They will also be terminating another 5-10% of their EU userbase this month for not accepting their latest price hikes. These will mostly be the low-volume users who were too lazy to cancel.
Wait for the special offers before signing up for a plan again, folks. And explore the alternatives in the mean time… you might just discover that you don’t need them.
I only eat vegans. Would that count?
There is no point waiting for a response…the threat has been neutralized. Now repeat after me: There is no AGI.
I’d say that the board members also have to have some personal liability (criminal of course, but also limited financial liability and a temporary or permanent ban on serving on any board or executive (legally responsible) position, depending on circumstances. Incentives must be aligned, and not something that they can justify as a cost of doing business.
Dmoz was great.
I agree that such measures would help, however… Good luck getting that into law (again, in some places). It’s just not a realistic option.
What is your proposed solution?
More likely forwarding a mix of funny cat videos, gardening tips, home remedies, and paid-for conspiracy theories to all their friends and family, while convincing themselves that they are successfully doing research.
Don’t worry - it’s for a good cause of saving the youth from a dystopian future of carbon-neutral transportation and walk/bike-able cities & neighbourhoods. Sigh.
You pay the Amazon tax indirectly often enough regardless. Huge chunks of the Internet run on AWS. And if it’s not AWS, then it’s Google Cloud or Microsoft Azure. Shareholders win again.
As for not buying shitty products, returning them when you realise how shitty they are, cancelling contracts when services turn shitty, etc. Yes, do that.
That guy has too much time on his hands. Get a job (and shave off those sideburns), hippy! /s
Welcome to the world of Carrier Grade NAT. 100.64.0.0/10 is reserved for this.
If you are lucky, you also have an IPv6 address. The catch is you need IPv6 on the client-side too.
A VPS or similar running wireguard and a proxy might bridge the gap.
It might also be possible to ask your provider for some port forwarding. Probably not, but check anyway.
Good luck!
It is pretty easy to imagine separate streams of updates that affect each other negatively.
CrowdStrike does its own 0-day updates, Microsoft does its own 0-day updates. There is probably limited if any testing at that critical intersection.
If Microsoft 100% controlled the release stream, otoh, there’d be a much better chance to have caught it. The responsibility would probably lie with MS in such a case.
