I did use the qualifier "most". :-)

I dunno about that... for one thing, most humans don't confidently spout nonsense unless alcohol is involved.

Companies don't spin off business lines into independent subsidiaries when they foresee lots of profits in the future... this is what they do when they're trying to cut their losses.

In other words - IBM is basically cutting their losses with regards to quantum computing. They may technically keep the unit alive, but they're gonna tighten expenditures significantly.

Seems like perfect circumstances for using hallucination-prone techniques!

Do they live by the super-sea, and frolic in the autumn mist in the land of super-honalee?

Bloat in Windows is in a whole different league that Linux "bloat". If a machine was able to run Windows 10 - heck, even if it ran Windows 7 or probably even XP - it should be able to handle a user-friendly distro like Linux Mint just fine.

Man, I hope the price increase doesn't kill the product's sales momentum!

What alternative do you think these guys had? They've got bills to pay and families to feed, and all of these companies have been dumping skilled employees like crazy due to leadership's sophomoric belief that AI can do everything.

From what I've seen, this is rarely true... unless you count grocery bags as "cargo".

You - and many others - phrase that particular argument as if home charging is a "least bad" option. But it seems to me the ability to "refuel" at home is a major POSITIVE selling point for EVs! You almost never have to make a special trip just to fuel your car again!

At least once a week I'm making a late-night trip to the gas station for either my car or my wife's car. If I don't want to do that, then I end up having to cool my heels waiting in line for the gas pump in the morning.

The possibility of home charging is one of the major reasons I want to get an EV!

I have absolutely no idea! How could one tell?

I was happy with my Ford Escort. It was very reliable and ran just about forever.

Quick! Somebody call Scott Bakula!

I started working with computers just a couple months after our local uni dumped punchcards for terminals. I considered myself lucky back then, and I'm still glad I never had to do it.

I do have a few programs saved on paper tape, however. ;-)
