That's OK but the only reason many people buy American cars and trucks is to support American jobs.

When it's all robots might as well get a Tundra rather than a 1500. Or maybe BYD will come in with something soon.

We'll see how that goes.

While this is true, those jobs are few in number.

Historically, little. The bulk of DCs have typically been located where people could go to them because that used to be more necessary, and therefore they were concentrated around tech firms. And they were planned out years in advance, and mostly sited where it made sense. They also weren't maximally power-dense, as there were other considerations. AI DCs are more power intensive, as they're shoving as many processors and as much memory as possible into every rack. And they're building them fast and desperately, so anywhere they can find to cram them in.

That means yes, noise issues, but also lots of other problems associated with rapidly installing extremely power intensive facilities in awkward locations when infrastructure is already strained. Resulting issues with power and water availability are now well documented.

Good thing they are nowhere near having a monopoly then

I agree. The existing players themselves would increase capacity in hope of outcompeting one another if they thought this would last.

Nope. There will be more idiots behind them.

How about forwarding the message back to the sender(s), does the original still get included?

Things systemd doesn't do for 200, Alex

Rent free.

Yeah but in practice virtually zero of them are actually closed loop. Even when it is claimed they are there is often a cooling tower which is used sometimes, which means they only sometimes operate in a closed loop mode.

Godwin's law obviously has no modern relevance given that it was invented for USENET and that was effectively destroyed.

Now seriously though it never spoke to whether or not the comparisons to Hitler were apt, as that is situational, only that they would occur.

And sidebar, Mike Godwin explicitly stated that such a comparison is apt when it comes to der pedofuhrer. Just like to toss that in there.

The guys who built those giant ovens could have told themselves that somebody was going to be baking a whole lot of bread ... very inefficiency.

Somebody wired up all those ICBM missile silos too. The ones who do think all of the above is just fine. There will always be someone.

This is why there's no ethical consumption under capitalism. The worst people have the most money because they have no compunctions about harming others.

It doesn't actually provide that because of the things you can't do in unit files without scripts.

When systemd proponents can construct a non-fallacious argument maybe I'll consider taking it seriously

Hmm. Grounds for his conviction seem suspect and eligible for appeal:

1. The person who has the contract with the academic institution, and thus the person who has committed fraud in relation to that contract, is the student, not the stand-in exam taker. The exam taker has a separate contract with the student, which taken in a narrow contract, was not performed fraudulently but rather at the instruction of the student and as specified and requested by the student. That is a private matter.

2. His use of the students' credentials was authorized by each of the students, so it is questionable whether this was "unauthorized access". This (the login step, consdered in isolation) s analogous to someone assisting a, for example, visually or physically disabled person to log in to theiir online account.

3. Would disappear if 1. and 2. are not found to be not criminal for reasons similar to the above.

There is no value to running SteamOS on your PC over some other distribution except simplicity. If you actually want to do non-game things with it you'll wind up installing enough additional packages to erase the benefit. If you want simplicity, you'll also buy a steam machine, so you don't have to figure out the PC.
