I just hope someone good gets InDesign if Adobe explodes. It's my favorite DTP software by a wide margin. I also hope Acrobat just ceases to exist. It's trash.

I'd rather turn this place into Monaco. Not Russia.
Monaco isn't on the table any more since this whole pedofuhrer thing has stained this country. Russia might be, though I would prefer to avoid that as well. Too bad. Good thing I don't have kids!
I think most people assign most of the blame for the clownstroke problem to them, and only a portion to Microsoft. They claimed they weren't using eBPF on Windows like they do on Linux because it's not sufficiently mature on Windows. So far I haven't heard from anyone who really knows whether that's true.
On the other hand, Microsoft has always been terrible. Updating windows has always been hazardous. Even in good times it would often scramble itself and stop updating until you did some magic bullshit, usually involving the command line that Windows users so frequently like to mock Linux about. Both systems sometimes require going to a shell, the difference is that it isn't shit on Linux.
Unless they're completely bananas, they will sell a device intended to be your display. Whether they do or not, lots of other companies will sell displays for the vehicle. It's cheap enough to do some adapter plastics for an existing unit.
You didn't understand that article. They've been doing that. It was computationally expensive. Now they've found ways to do it faster, so they are doing more of it.
That's only realistic if you expect this expansion to continue indefinitely. But it is almost certainly a bubble because it's unlikely that an advance in AI will come soon enough to justify all of the expenditure. (It's not impossible...)
Having to find and purchase property, get permits (even with substantial grease) and actually get everything lined up and in hand and made into a fab is a lot. If you can get it done in 24 months you're doing very well. And that's just the fab part of the business...
Apple is the only (legal) source for a MacOS-running computer, and its one of the few providers of a unified-memory architecture for local AI execution
There's dime-a-dozen AMD UMA systems with AI acceleration, and their performance is pretty good, plus they all support much larger memory than most Apple systems. If all you want is AI acceleration, you can get that just fine. Apple's claim to fame continues to be their hardware design, which isn't incredibly better than literally everyone else, but really is generally pretty nice and almost always has been.
These dumbfucks should be on their knees thanking these billionaires for locating their businesses here. Let alone declaring residency here. California at the end of the day isn't that special. I can get a Mediterranean climate in many places on the planet.
Please fucking do then, California is full.
Even more seriously though, California natives both more and less native than me (my father and I were both born here, before that the history gets Mexican, but that covered a lot of ground once) would be perfectly happy if the Hollywood and the tourism went away, and California's economy was based on real things — or at least virtually real things. People would still want to live here, because it would still have the best weather in the continental US. Parts of it are not great in that regard of course, but then that's because California has just about every kind of terrain but tundra. It's big.
As for residency, you don't not get taxed on anything simply because you're not a resident. California makes money on property taxes, it only ostensibly doesn't raise your property taxes dramatically unless you make significant improvements. If you want to own a lot of California, you're going to pay.
But once again, the billionaires can feel free to leave. California will make new ones, because it's rich land, and all wealth is derived from the land. But the reality is, they're not making more California. The last pieces of it which are pleasant to live in which haven't already been made stupendously expensive (on the North Coast) are being sold out now. Amazon is trying to come in at this moment. You're underestimating the value of a climate that's livable without air conditioning all year round. That's only getting scarcer.
What did he trick you into buying for more than it was worth?
Speaking only for myself, a 4xxx series card. Their Linux drivers used to be pretty good, now they are real bad. When I do a driver update it's about 50/50 whether they will break sleep. For once I wish I had AMD graphics.
Would they if they could? Are they envious?
What do they mean by 'in Brazil' ? People with a business registered in Brazil? Something else?
The funny thing was that I knew him for like six months online before I realized he was fully paralyzed. He's been covered in the Finnish press a number of times. Amazing guy. Up until recently he was living in a house he built himself before ALS struck, but the medical service decided he was too far away and he had to move closer. You lose a lot of control over your life with ALS.
He wrote a book about nuclear safety engineering recently, which is a fascinating read, and which I strongly recommend.
I suppose one could argue that you want the more dselicate computers behind the pilot, since then it has the greatest achievable shielding on all sides without having excessive distance from the flight controls and without becoming inaccessible if the pod that is loaded into the middle is not traversible. Similar reasoning is used in Formula 1 - delicate bits of the car (such as the fuel tank) are placed between the driver and the engine, to keep them as safe as possible without creating a burden. This would necessitate there being a step down to get to the pilot's chair. It's not a particularly good piece of "lore repair" but it's the best I can do.
The nuclear waste silos were, though.
The feet operated as vertical rockets, so I'd say the designer was thinking along the same lines you are.
