Most of these replies seem to be missing the reason. Paramount is trying to merge and needs FCC approval and the Trump administration has been using the FCC as a cudgel to keep them in line.

I don’t needs a little more jpeg if you ask me.

This is hardly the first, and definitely not the last corporate fad. We should have just about finished moving everything to the block chain by now.

I remember the cube, might not have been this, might have just been the animation to change desktops.

The reality is that more and more web users are phone and tablet only.

Phones and tablets are consumer devices and most users are consumers rather than creators. This is especially true outside the Anglo-sphere and in developing countries.

All this to say it’s going to get worse and may never get better.

That’s the standard in North America as well for single family homes or even condo buildings where they might put the condenser on the balcony or use a heat pump with a central loop.

I would guess these are popular in New York because they have many many old buildings with central heat and it’s easier to punch a hole in the wall then hang somethings off the building 8 floors up. Also easier to work on the unit.

Sounds like you need to improve your communication with your wife about her potential IV drug use and extramarital affairs.

Man, I liked some of Klein’s videos from way back ( idubbbz as well) but when YouTubers shift from whatever content they were making to making content about the platform or others on it I usually check out real quick.

I also can’t do 3 hour podcasts where people talk over each other and yell either so maybe I’m just not the target demo anymore.

As much as people complain about electron (some valid, some not) Linux has benefited quite a bit to the cross platform availability of local applications.

I totally believe him when he says that. I’m not sure he remembers what he had for breakfast yesterday.

The people around him sure do though

Nah this type of law exists to be selectively applied, that’s what makes it so great.

The only people who it will be applied to are those who are “undesirable” or step out of line.

Let me give you a bit of the outside of the story as well.

For sure tiktok and meta and Google want you in their walled Garden for all the obvious reasons. However, and it’s gotten even worse as of late, if you have any kind of computationally expensive but desirable content/data the crawlers/scrapers/scripters will pummel your site. Despite how annoying you find the captchas and bot detection a computer doesn’t give too shits about it and at this point they basically serve as a rate limit or effort to make your content too computationally expensive to scrape and be worth it.

While accounts don’t necessarily solve this problem they do help as another impediment.

The Linux version of a printer is just buy a brother color laser (or non color). I bought one for 85 bucks like 15 years ago and it still chugging along

Has he paid any of the money he was supposed for the slander/libel/ breaking new York laws or whatever? Or has it just been reduced to nothing.

Consumer cards are often actually bigger than the datacenter counterparts.

Most CPUs and GPUs in a rack just have low profile heat sinks and depend on the chassis to move the air. Since a datacenter doesn’t care about noise the chassis will just have a shot load of fans running full tilt over the fanless components.

Though when you get up to the large ML cards from AMD for example they have like Kleenex box sized heatsinks on them.

That or a tacit " I’ve seen this"

If the house of commons was comprised of the popular vote of the country maybe but it isn’t. The vote splits in each riding and on the riding level they lose and it becomes a conservative seat. In deeply liberal ridings like downtown Toronto the NDP and liberals might trade places but anywhere where the vote is close they both lose.

That is why FPTP trends towards two parties. That is why there isn’t the Canadian alliance and PC parties anymore.

Those are not usually real gold though.

It’s not really an “of course”

Some countries don’t tax lottery winnings, Canada for example. Though for Canada game shows are a bit more nebulous.

Doesn’t matter what they want.

The only real option for right wing voters is the conservatives so they will keep voting blue.

The only real option for liberal voters not happy with the current state of things is the NDP.

So the NDP pulls votes from the liberals and the conservatives will be in power.
