Satisfyingly poetic if this is the "prick" that bursts the AI bubble.

>>OpenAI Might Rebrand Its Data Centers As 'AI Compute Campuses'

Umm, don't you mean "SI (Super Intelligence) Compute Campuses"? That rebrand didn't work so I guess they're trying again.

In 3 years they'll have run it into the ground and be looking for another new buyer. Coincidentally, 3 years and 9 months was the length of time AT&T owned Warner Brothers before pawning it off on Discovery.

>> I mean what's added in meaning for replacing shop.walmart.com with www.walmart.web.

If the owner of walmart.web is not Walmart but is hoping people think they are, I imagine a great deal of value could be extracted from it.

Students taking on a lifetime of debt to pay tuition are NOT representative of society at large. MOST people will take the legal option if the price is reasonable and the DRM is not invasive.

In other words, it means you don't own it, you just rent it (until the rights-holder decides it's no longer in their interests for you to have access to what you purchased).

Heck the first quantum computer in 1998 with two qubits was rom temperature https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_magnetic_resonance_quantum_computer#History

I cut back 90% on Facebook/Twitter after Jan. 6 because Twitter silently unsubscribed my account from following Abby Johnson because she happened to be in the audience on Jan. 6.

Knockoffs do have a legit market, but if I choose to buy them I prefer to do it on Aliexpress where I can cut out the middleman and save a few bucks (in exchange for slightly longer shipping times).

Many businesses offer discounts for paying in cash (if their agreements with credit/debit card companies allow it). Even with no discount, I'd rather have my money go to local business owners than to a bank.

>>What's the real motivation here? Are they thinking that they missed the bus on renewables and that nuclear might be an export industry one day in the distant future?

One word: mining. Canada is the second largest producer and largest exporter of uranium in the world. 33% of the US's uranium comes from Canada. Nuclear is ALREADY a huge export industry for Canada, and developing new uses for it like micro-reactors is way to expand the market (which until recently had been in decline).

It's not the first time Apple hasn't supported Intel. Before 2005, Apple wasn't supporting Intel at all.

A "tool" that lets one programmer do the work of 20 means that 19 will be laid off, regardless of how well they learn the tools. To say nothing of people working in other industries "disrupted" by those tools who will be laid off no matter what they do.

>>Less than a Steam Deck! ...but more than a Cardputer Zero which seems to have similar capabilities and is farther along in the development process.

>>But the company lost more than $4.9 billion last year, compared with a $791 million profit in 2024, as capital expenditures nearly doubled to $20.7 billion from heavy spending on artificial intelligence development.

At first I assumed that this was because Musk merged xAI with SpaceX, but that didn't actually happen until 2026. Why was SpaceX spending so much on AI during 2025? Is this research for the bonkers data-centers-in-space nonsense?
