The biggest boys who buy the most servers provision them via netboot, which is why it's on. You are not the biggest, so you have to turn it off. Me neither, so I also have to turn it off.

But this is a good old buffer overflow fail, so this is some 90s shit they could have caught with analysis tools, and it's really not because the manufacturers leave PXE boot on. It's because components of UEFI BIOS are apparently written by amateurs.

Anyone can see from the tone of your post that your opinion of Apple is based purely on emotion, an nothing else.

That's what a stupid fuck might think based on their Apple worship.

I have loads of experience with Apple. That's why I despise them now, that and their sucking Trump's cock with a golden icon donation on the international stage. Feel free to pay them to abuse you and shit on our country.

It's going to get cheaper because, as you say, it will go onto a mass produced pre-prepped chip which will be loaded by machines. Humans will only have to take the samples and the machine will do most of the prep work. But my thought is that it won't get a lot faster because it takes time for the reactions to occur.

maybe bacteriophage (viruses that target bacteria) are the immerging technology. They are also useful in therapy for certain kinds of cancer.

Yeah, but it costs tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars and weeks of study to do that. You have to study which phage will work before it's deployed, and this is inherently expensive and time consuming. It will presumably get cheaper, but it probably can't get much faster.

They will continue to use physics simulation and rendering which are actually correct, not just correct-ish-looking.

There is no such thing. The only actually correct thing is the real world. Everything else is an approximation, and this is one of them. There are plenty of minor players who will pay for cheaper training. It certainly doesn't matter to Google whether it will produce good results. Arguably no approach will, so why not just use this?

You can relay DHCP.

Netbooting desktops is one of those ideas that sounds great and then isn't. The HDD isn't that expensive. AFAICT nobody does it except for clusters and POS which is worthless without the network anyway. Plus it's an opportunity for an attacker on your network to get your machine to boot another system so they get access to a whitelisted MAC.
