yup, it’s the same playbook Apple had in the 80’s and 90’s. Get them into schools and get everyone used to their ecosystem so they would buy their products after graduating. Bill Gates did the same thing in the 90’s to outfit computer labs in schools with a bunch of Dell computers.

How did they handle the Canadian teams cheating in curling?

🎶It’s the ciiiiiiircle of slooooooooop🎶

Yeah, 3 and 4 were amazing. And 3 has Trevor Belmont, Sypha, and Alucard. I always assumed Netflix Castlevania was based on that.

I was almost certain this would be the most vaporware of hardware vaporware.

This is just a play out of the rules for radicals playbook: accuse others of what you are doing.

In this case it’s probably both until observed.

Yeah, I usually over spec when I build my main rig because I want to have it last and repurpose it later down the road. I finally retired a power supply that I bought back in the mid 2000s. I can’t power modern cards anymore unfortunately. 🫡 pc power and cooling single rail take a break. You’ve earned it.

Disposable my ass. I just did the final upgrades to my AM4 platform to be my main rig for the next 5 years. After that it will get a storage upgrade and become a NAS and do other server stuff. This computer 7 years in has another 15 left in it.

It’s the open source version of BeOS, the original alternative OS for PowerPC Macs.

I just upgraded to an arc b580 from an RX 580. Linus Sebastian did the same, so it is good enough for me

Yeah it really is. Most everyone trained before the last 15 years were likely trained on an asynchronous manual transmission.

In good weather? Only the first few times. In bad weather? I’m on high alert like a dog who knows the mailman is delivering a vacuum cleaner. Take it slow, make sure the brakes work, and know where the runaway ramps are. A manual transmission is usually preferable for mountains for better control or for at least the illusion.

I feel like I occupy all places on this bell curve. Main rig gets retired into a server which I usually over build to have it’s later years be fine as a server. Which then it becomes old stuff. For tinkering around on projects, old stuff is preferred until it’s usefulness is proven, then it gets an upgrade. Old potato goes behind the TV until the steam machine comes out.

Naw, the valuation is still $3.22 trillion. The bigger tell will be the AI only companies start feeling the squeeze.

Lots of semi truck drivers know how to drive a manual and semi truck driver is one of the most common occupations in the US. Everyone at my company’s location knows how even though we have an all automatic fleet.

Edit: Just to address the premise of the question only a couple of us were driving 50 years ago.

Currently? Not at all. I’ve been trying to fix my AIO via docker behind a cloudflare tunnel. It was working, then an update broke the communication between Apache and the cloudflared. Their support forums have been condescending and unhelpful.

In the past I’ve run the TrueNAS app deployment but a change in the way data is stored messed up that install before I moved to AIO. I’ve tried going back to the TrueNAS app, but can’t get it to start. I believe that it is probably something related to the previous install, but have not had a lot of time to figure it out.
