Right now it is a terrible time to have a PC. Windows 11 has forced many to buy a new PC if wanted to stay with Windows. After years, Intel has competitive CPUs especially for laptops, but RAM pricing has made everything expensive. At the same time, MS seems incapable of releasing updates that don't break computers. Lastly, Apple just released a $600’budget laptop that upends the PC laptop market.

Hey, people are willing to pay for porn . . . Allegedly, from what my friend told me.

The border collie helps round up the cattle but it would be easier if the rancher knows where the cattle are located to send out the collie. Some ranches can be hundreds of thousands of acres. And that is the main herd. If there are stragglers, they have to be located too.

The answer is rather simple: don’t upgrade the kernel to a newer version. At this point, any kernel features added would not benefit a 486. Existing and working code is unaffected.

Who is throwing away working code? New versions of Linux will not support x486 processors. The keyword is "new". Existing versions will still work. All versions are archived for people to use. And Linux is still open source. Anyone who want to modify Linux going forward to support 486 is free to do so.

Windows 11 requires 4GB to "run". In my experience, MS defines "run" as "very low values of 'run'"

My point is everything about that sentence could be wrong.

Again Amazon will replace ALL of their warehouse workers as soon as it is feasible. So far they have only been able to replace some of them.

The article says this: "Various sources indicate that a single Am9080 processor cost AMD only 50 cents to make (100 per wafer), yet it could sell them to military customers for $700 each." It however does not name "various sources". My best guess is the $0.50 does not include any capital costs and only certain operational costs.

Robots have been coming for decades. And Amazon is one company that will replace all their warehouse workers with robots at the first sign that is feasible. Amazon, of all companies, knows the limits of robots in automation as they have been trying to create fully automated warehouses for decades.

Or worse, because it is on the Internet, it must be true. I had a friend whose entire argument that some conspiracy theory was true because multiple people posted things on websites. I countered that I could set up a website to detail how that friend murdered a homeless person one summer.

And you missed the point. You could easily verify the cases exist. AI cited cases do not exist. You could subsequently argue to the court that the cases do not support the opposition's arguments.

More than likely, the cost of any alternative is now cost prohibitive as AI is buying out those as well.

You would be surprised. Again Micron is making high bandwidth memory for AI instead of consumer DRAM. They have already announced this.

Again you would be surprised by the lack of logistics for some of these data centers. And no one is not saying it does not require that level of planning. What we are saying is some of these data centers are being built on hopes and dreams as the foundation.

Did you? The first assumption is paralegals were fired. How about the assertion that having or not having a paralegal makes no difference if the lawyer does no verification of something the lawyer is submitting to a court. Regardless of who wrote the filing, the lawyer submitting the filing is responsible for the contents.
