Assange had been involved in criminal hacking incidents since he was a teenager. I love the "F the US" crowd who are cheering for this guy when he's pretty much been a criminal that's been pushing the envelope of doing time in prison since the 80's. And he finally pushed far enough to draw the attention of an adversary that would effectively make him a prisoner for about a quarter of his life (so far).

Rah rah.

Or Proxmox.

Fuck VMWare and Broadcom. Broadcom is doing what it has previously done to enterprise customers of intellectual property that it hoovers up. It dramatically raises prices. One need only look at how CA customers were completely bent over after it was acquired by Broadcom. The instant this deal was announced, I knew the same fate would befall customers of VMWare. What you'll see is many companies who are stuck will try to execute shorter term renewals of their existing licenses and will then expedite migration to alternate platforms both in the datacenter and in the mobile device and collaboration space.

Seeya Hock!

The price does seem rather bubbly, but I'd rather invest in a company that actually makes things that are competitive in the world marketplace than a company that makes nearly 80% of its revenue capturing and mining the personal data of its users to feed a parasitic advertising monster. No thanks.

Do no evil.....uh huh.

Nice to see some progress, but I'm more interested in whether or not it's break-even. Consider the length of time to get here and the cost of the project. It effectively produced enough electricity to charge a single Tesla model 3 to about 25% capacity. We're likely still quite a few generations away from seeing fusion power at any significant scale.

Indeed. When it's time to vote again, remind your friends and family about this lawlessness.

They enforce the laws they feel like enforcing and break other laws knowing they'll get overturned in the courts....rinse...repeat.

F that.

Wonder what they're doing with all that power? 215kw is quite a bit of power.

While tragic for the dog, some accidents cannot be avoided. The litmus test should be are cars safer when they are automated or under human control.

Not only that, but there was a human in the driver's seat as well and it STILL happened. Accidents happen.

Nah, Eurocars are just going to use a USB-C port.

As the crow flies, the Arizona border is less than 100 miles from the ocean (the gulf of California). Would be great to import water from Mexico instead of drugs.

It fits in with trying to send a person to the moon 50-60 years after it's already been done.

The great march continues! :)

This is true. I have seen this firsthand on one of their multi-function machines (laser printer, not inkjet). There are active discussions online and an open source tool to roll back firmware "updates" that are leading to incompatibility with 3rd party consumables.

Good management and government are usually incompatible. We all know what ultimately happens....a bloated bureaucracy that is neither fast nor cheap.

Musk will get to the moon long before NASA.

Like a lot of tech that we take for granted today, space flight was a product of government effort/funding, but it's time to let private enterprise take over. Sadly, shareholders are a lot less tolerant of delays and waste than voters.

Brother has been doing the same thing...they are just not as aggressive. I have a 2 year old Brother printer that has stopped printing with 3rd party toner. I had to literally swap the chips between the old and new cartridges to make it work.

So now I'm caught in this dilemma.....do I allow future firmware updates that might totally fuck me on cartridge compatability or do I hold the line on older firmware and hope that I didn't miss out on a change that patched some genuine vulnerability.
