It’s just good business, cutting costs that only affects the quality of the product, but not the bottom line

Scarcity breeds innovation /s

Unfortunately, he found out that it would mean that he and his clients would make less money for a bit, so the idea was scrapped

These are not cat ears, but rather squinted eyes of a happy face

At least that was my interpretation at the time

No

I still love Biden’s answer to the question how many genders there are

He probably didn’t come up with it but it’s still so funny to me

If you are particularly deranged, you can also use “^^”

It’s a cool shell, I use it as a daily driver (though I’m keeping a close eye on elvish which syntactically is even further away from classic shell), but the comments read like fish is basically zsh. And while zsh is pretty close to bash, fish isn’t.

Be aware that fish isn’t a POSIX-compatible shell enough, so you have to adjust syntax.

You can make up numbers all you want, at one point, someone has to foot the bill. This isn’t something like Tesla stock where people pay insane money for paper expecting it to just become worth more in the future, this is about physical goods that need to be purchased and operated. You can’t just hold it like stock or a fund. It deprecates and needs to turn a profit.

While operating at a real profit is already difficult enough, the issue sometimes is that they can’t be operated at all, me it because construction gets no permission or the infrastructure just isn’t there.

There are plenty nowadays from what I remember.

1. They save on the ARM licensing fees. I’m not sure about the details, but I believe it’s both a flat fee and cost per chip produced
2. They can freely add proprietary vendor extensions, which I’m not sure ARM allows
3. They’re less restricted in general chip design (I think ARM has restricted options in the last years, Apple has some special privileges as a founding member)

they’re all content to think that returns won’t happen for 5-10 years after their investments.

That depends on interest rates.

Also it’ll be awkward when companies ask for another round of stupid money in two years when the current generation of hardware is no longer competitive.

heh

Please don’t call it slop, these are Microsoft cups or something

Russia is in a tough spot here. On the one hand, they’d love to play the “see, everyone does it, so our little invasion is perfectly fine”, but Maduro was a political ally, so they can’t really do that. On the other hand, they look like the buffoons they are now because the US simply did to their ally what they couldn’t do to a country without major alliances; that is quickly invade and get rid of the head of state.

Of course, they will say something like “Ukraine isn’t actually a sovereign state but rather a Russian oblast, unlike Venezuela which is totally more legitimate, so what you did is totally different from what we’re doing”. Some doublethink will do, no need to actually state anything rooted in reality.

The argument shouldnt be men vs. women, but people vs. those who exploit us, or people vs. the problem

This is what I tried to hint at.

On the other hand, men on average live shorter, and we just go “well it’s just risky behavior and physical labor I guess 🤷‍♂️” and they’re aren’t any task forces for that either, truth is we as a society don’t care enough about these issues regardless of sex

pacman is very fast and handy. The (in)famous pacman -Syu had you system completely up to date in record time.

Sometimes I miss its speed and simplicity

I mean peertube exists, and it actually integrates into the fediverse…

Then why do they vary by hotel?
