At 2013, the disks in question were spinning disks. I didn't understand from the article whether the stats for 2021 and 2025 were about spinning or solid state drives.

Comparing reliability over time of spindles to solid states is almost meaningless. The failure scenarios are just not the same.

Two questions:

1. Did you have a choice? Was there an option, maybe even a more expensive one, that did not include the lock-in?
2. Is the company where you signed the contract a monopoly?

Because what usually happens is that you don't have a choice but to sign this contract, or you can't get the service at all.

"If Linus yells at you to stop doing something, you damn well listen, or move aside for someone else who will listen."

What if he's wrong on something?

I mean the dude is 55, mentally he's not going to be able to keep up with the really abstract stuff.

I've flown on Spirit many times and every bad thing you've heard about it is true.

Thatâ(TM)s not the only reason; the other two big ones are:

1. There is far greater parity between Windows and Linux in terms of stability and security over the past 15 years or so.
2. Linux has never had the software range MS
has had, and the best Linux software is also on MS plus a lot more.

Thankfully, Duo is not the only way I'm learning German. I also have a private teacher, a class I attend (organized by my work place), as well as just trying to talk to people around me. Yes, I now live in a German speaking country (arguably. Opinions on what the German people of Switzerland speak vary). As such, Duo's way of teaching does not hold me back too much.

But, yes, I only recently figured out what "an" vs. "am" actually mean, and it was a lightbulb moment. Duolingo just asks you to translate stuff and they say WRONG!!!! without really explaining.

The anger over firing people may not affect their bottom line (though I, personally, avoided going paid for that precise reason), but the results AI produces may.

I'm studying German with it, and you can see the quality of the sentences slipping. It seems that they are stuffing their lessons, now that it's so cheap to produce more of them, and that affects how it feels to learn with the app. I've definitely started looking for other sources to learn German from.

I am very confused; don't movie studios use artificially generated characters frequently for special effects? Isn't it almost certain that especially over the past few years they've used AI to do that? How would this be something new?

"According to the video, officials are not required to disclose what exactly the charges are or who has brought them until the initial investigation is complete under Italian law. "

Then why does the title say he's being charged for reviewing games?

Dude, my claim isn't over some unknowable information lost to time; you can look at old game catalogues and gaming magazines and they have the prices right there.

Here's SSI's 1984 catalogue:

Look at the price list for EA and all its companies from 1987:

I've been gaming since the early 80's and games are so much cheaper now than they used to be. I remember spending $39.95-59.95 in the late 80's/early 90's, which would be over $100 now adjusted for inflation. And these weren't huge releases, just run-of-the-mill games.

He's starting out great with Krypto the Super-Dog!

"So we're going to put out everything that we think is of the highest quality"

Let us know when you start.

"I don't think this extra billion is going to do much if he can't deliver HLS"
Elon not deliver on a technology he promised?! That would be crazy.
