ahh these young kids donâ(TM)t remember Digitial Electronic Corporation, makers of legendary DEC Alpha CPU.

It absolutely 100% reflects EXACTLY what your internal culture is. Otherwise they would be demonstrating how that sort of behavior, and this specific instance were addressed by leadership to make it clear thats not acceptable.

But no one did anything did they. It was entirely acceptable, and theyve been promoted

Yet that is literally how Pontiac schemes work until they collapse...

Should be trained to actually fly the aircraft, not set the GPS and forget it.

Navigation by alternate methods isn't even a little bit hard if you can handle pretty basic math and have charts. With electronic charts this should be no problem, you estimate your location based on land marks or ATC and then plot your bearing - or let ATC direct you. None of the avionics you require to navigate with your brain are GPS based. VOR, ILS, a compass and a guess within a few hundred miles of your current position and you should be able to figure it out, even in IFR weather.

If they had the close runways because the pilots were incapable of landing on their own with visual references or standard ILS, they are in no way qualified to be in an airliner. W T F

Itâ(TM)s in its name. SERP = Search Engine Results Page. Theyâ(TM)re scrapes of Google SERPs. This is fallout from the Reddit license where Reddit decided to collect rent from Google and others for scraping their content. Apparently Reddit and Google decided to put Google only visible stuff on their pages (which is explicitly illegal under Googleâ(TM)s TOS, and has resulted in index banning) and then served up this secret content via SerpAPI.

Scraping Google SERPs has been standard behavior for literally as long as Google has existed. Thatâ(TM)s literally how Facebook, Microsoft, and countless startups and academics evaluate their own search engines. Iâ(TM)m not exaggerating. They literally compare their results to Google results, which always made me wonder what Google does.

As far as ignoring robots.txt and using different IPs? Please. Thatâ(TM)s also has been standard behavior for as long as the web has been around.

This is monopoly behavior, and Google is openly engaging in it and attacking the open web because thereâ(TM)s a sympathetic White House administration for them.

Il really trying ting to understand whatâ(TM) theyâ(TM)re alleging that hasnâ(TM)t been standard practice (even by Google) for literally as long as the web has existed.

Honestly, this sounds like textbook monopoly behavior.

10 years for this is bullshit.
Like all computer crimes, the estimated damage is grossly inflated. This doesnâ(TM)t even sound like the damage typical of a ransomware attack.

The guy is getting screwed.

GeForce Now is not Stadia.

Stadia was custom thing requiring development build for stadia.

GFN is just a VM with access to Nvidia hardware running Windows and using the standard Steam client (or Xbox for pc, epic store). When it first came out, literally every game on steam was available, though some weren't working right. GFN had to modify it to only allow certain steam games to appease devs who for some reason didnt approve.

Its not as low latency as local steam link, but as a dad/former gamer, its not so baggy that its the reason I get pwned, its still me.

I wouldn't do iRacing or CoD on it, but fortnite against kids is solid on a good internet connection.

The downside is the one game I really want to play on it doesn't use cloud saves, so its not seamless in that game (to be fair, my last save was close to 1gb in size :/

Congrats asswipes, Ive already canceled my YouTube.tv sub because I missed the last F1 race because of this bullshit.

Just canceled my Disney+ sub because I have to pay extra there to get ESPN to get F1 ...

FUCK YOU RICH ASSHOLES.

I'll just go outside instead, and enjoy my $180/month for other things.

I could give not 1 flying fuck why, you are both ridiculously profitable, fuck you greedy assholes. Both of you are trying to blame the other guy, yet profitable is not in anyway a problem you have.

I hope ya'll die the most painful death, you deserve it.

"If confronted with a gnome login gui, how do you make the system useful again?"

Alt-F1 (or whatever it is in Linux - I only use certified UNIX systems, which Linux will never be)

Or you know, build robust apps that don't have one cloud provider as a single point of failure.

This wasn't a root dns failure of TLD servers, so it wasn't by any means an unsolvable problem.

But that takes effort, and to be fair, if the company cared about reliability, they wouldn't be on AWS anyway. Not that AWS isn't generally reliable, its a great service for many things, but when you outsource everything to someone else because its hard - and don't understand that you're still actually responsible for the 'hard' parts - well thats on you and its why you should have done it yourself first.

The shit you outsource to AWS is actually the EASY part. Putting all that stuff together into a working architecture is and always has been the difficult part. Keeping rack servers running is a pretty well understood process at this point, its not hard to keep racks of running computers, it just takes people who know how to build your automation and understand that time is more expensive than cpu cycles.

No. There will always be jobs. Stupid jobs that pay nothing, but there will always be jobs. Why? Because having people you control is a kink for the oligarchs.

Thatâ(TM)s it. Itâ(TM)s about slavery. Never expect UBI, as long as billionaires exist. They want to keep you poor, weak, and most importantly *dependent*.

Bruh. Thatâ(TM)s literally how passports work. They work with visas, and visa free travel agreements.

Did you think TFA was going to be about how many grams the cardstock the cover is made out of can support? Seriously, what do you think âoea powerful passportâ means? Itâ(TM)s where you can travel without visas.

I donâ(TM)t know if the Internet feels like Philadelphia, but I will say it feels like Itâ(TM)s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Even this sounds like Charlie asking if Pittsburgh is part of Philadelphia.

It's reasonable when you consider they have to "support" those drives via their various support channels.

You put in a drive with incompatible firmware, then start asking for support because an issue with the firmware comes up, it directly costs them money.

Im not arguing the cost is valid, but if you've ever dealt with large commercial product support you would completely understand why its logical.

No you cant just refuse support to those people because
A. You will still contact them and waste resources to confirm an unsupported drive
B. Most states require vendors to honor warranty/support for modified products unless the vendor can PROVE the modification is the source of the problem.
C. Even after proof, some customers would continue to argue and add legal costs
D. Finally the customer will trash talk the vendor online and word of mouth, right or wrong ... costing the vendor even more money

Or they could just block your cheap drive and not have you as a customer and lose less money cause you're a tight wad.

You're not the customer they are interested in, you're a potential cost rather than profit.
