We will all go together when we go...

Of course there are constraints. But they can address them with other constraints, for example they could permit high power use only during times of high solar production. Their central control makes it feasible. Or they could just tell other users to f off when they want to do some training.

That, and that they are or were also arcades, should be enough.

We have had numerous discussions about this franchise on Slashdot in the past.

You, sir, are the one who are lying, or at best cannot read. It says right there they're looking for graduates, not experienced workers They could get the same information they will get from them by training on the course materials.

He is 0wning our country. There is nothing more important going on in the USA than the Cheeto Benito presidency. But you know what's really crazy about this Trump shit? Epstein didn't kill himself.

What he said: "having 60% of your population one paycheck away from homelessness is a problem."

What you said a couple comments later: "More often than not, as long as someone is still able to maintain some sort of gainful employment, they'll just have to downsize to something more affordable"

Here's what's wrong with that idea: Most people don't own. They are renters. Most of them are living paycheck to paycheck. They cannot afford first+deposit if they find themselves without a place to live. Yes, for people who have been doing well for a while, they might have some money in the bank, and they might be able to afford to move into another place. But most Americans are not in a position to do that. They have no nest egg, and they have actively poor or no credit.

Most people in this economic class who don't wind up in their vehicle or totally unsheltered are staying with someone or multiple different someones temporarily, aka "couch surfing". Their stuff gets spread out across multiple locations and often lost and/or stolen. They have difficulty keeping appointments and getting another job. The worse things get, the harder it is to get employment. Eventually if they are lucky they get into some kind of work experience program, which is important both because it gets them some income and because it's much harder to get a job when you don't have one at all experience levels.

It's true that there are some interim steps between unemployed barista and crackwhore, but it's absolutely true that people living paycheck to paycheck due to an inadequate minimum wage and hostile housing market where most property management companies are doing credit checks and charging you for the privilege of having what is increasingly equal to a social credit score maintained and verified are going to have a very difficult time becoming rehomed. I have worked with many of these people day after day for years now, and if they don't have people to help them then they absolutely are at high risk of winding up homeless as we usually think of the term.

rsilvergun is guilty of poorly proofread and even poorly thought out run-on sentences, but he is not going all reee here. This is a real problem which some people simply don't have any personal experience with, so it doesn't seem real to them. I applaud your inexperience in this matter, congratulations! Our economic system is always trying to tear everyone down, and you have so far avoided its worst effects. I sincerely hope that continues for you, and everyone else here, and for that matter everyone else everywhere. But you frankly don't know what you're talking about, due to your ivory tower perspective. Don't get it lodged.

This is some stuff someone I've known since I was a teenager (more than 2/3 of a lifetime ago) who is well-regarded in several geek communities and buddies with influential nerds whose names are well-known to Slashdot, and some who are household names, said to me in a feceboot chat.

AMD has ARM as a major competitor, and ARM has multiple manufacturers that license the IP ( along with APPLE of all companies ) so don't be too sure about that.
AMD has started to concentrate on a next-gen x86 platform and they ultimately won the x86/64 vs Itanium war against Intel. All x86/64 platforms use AMD's core tech these days.
Vector x86 parallelism would leapfrog what we're currently seeing... rather than making smaller and smaller gate sizes, we'd start to see 3D chip architectures that increase in compute capability by the CUBE of the die volume - and AMD is ahead of many in dealing with cooling and efficiency in 14nm and 7nm.
ARM was, technically, bought by Intel ( StrongARM ) back in â97
arms origins begin with DEC, specifically the alpha. The whole point was to create a low power version of it. Apple got into it because of the Newton

Whiskey tango foxtrot, virtually 100% of that is incorrect. ARM predates Alpha, the K7 and K8 are Alpha's closest descendants, Apple is a co-founder of ARM. AMD is not a leader in cooling, their CPU coolers are licensed and not very good. And they don't even own the process tech any more. An instruction set hasn't been married to an architecture for decades. I'm also literally the one who told him the Newton was ARM-based elsewhere in the thread.

I 100% guarantee you that shit was paraphrased from AI results, except the "Vector x86 parallelism" line which looks verbatim. He didn't say shit when I called him on it either, just ran the fuck away. He AI'd me without paraphrasing once before when he was saying some positive shit about the new child molester protecting pope (this one even actively protected a molester before he was pope that we know of) for clicks, and he posted some low effort bullshit back to me about Vatican reform as if that were real. A bunch of other clowns gave it the thumbs up, a bunch of known-nothing dickheads nodding sagely at their group wisdom.

This guy used to know things, I've seen him demonstrate that, now he repeats AI bullshit as if it were fact which I already know to be false. I'm fucking watching it turn people who used to know more than I do into people who know fuck-all.

I haven't been in a Pizza Time Theater since I went to a swgoths meet in San Antonio more than 20 years ago, one of the crew was working there. They had a pretty decent selection of games, and everything was in good working order.

There was/is also also Bullwinkle's, three locations remain. None of them are the original, which I visited once as a tween. It was in Santa Clara.

We also had a Chuck E Cheese in Santa Cruz county, located in the Nob Hill shopping center in Capitola, CA. The arcade had a "haunted forest" theme and they had very current and expensive games at the time, like Dragon's Lair (with the second screen for spectators, even.) They had to have good games to compete with the main arcade at The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. They had the full suite of animatronics, too. The county also had a bunch of other arcades which were pretty good, including Attic Arcade in Soquel (which usually had at least one or two good imports) and Special Effects in Scotts Valley, and a Time Zone in the Capitola Mall.

Most of them are gone now anyway. Old video games, on the other hand, are a great reason to go.

If the moon is split in two and we are living through Thundarr the Barbarian I can first shot at wooing the princess!

Being a huge fan of the original cartoons, I was really sad to hear the whole story of Coyote vs Acme being canned. So while I am not sure how good the actual movie is, I'm really glad it gets a chance to exist and I will probably see it just to support the pushback effort.

There's not much other stuff I am really waiting for but am cautiously hopeful about Tron, and actually will try to see Alien: Earth which looks like more fun than a lot of SF Horror has been recently. But I am keeping expectations low for both.

Not only is he a vibe coder, he doesn't even know how to move files.

No, I'm hating the idea, which is stupid no matter which word you use for it.

You should embrace your own agency instead of needing to imagine a magical sky daddy coding assistant.
