I'm doing just fine with a 128g Mac Studio M1 Ultra. Editing 4k video weekly for Airwindows. Not sure 'certain tasks' is anything BUT local AI.

Resolving ambiguities in the law is what judges are for. The existing system is all about writing vague laws and then appointing "agency experts" to fill in the blanks without having to bother with that whole annoying democracy thing to change the law. Some people like it that way though, the submitter seems pretty upset at the idea of lawmaking involving things like voting or separation of powers.

"Neon Genesis Evangelion? Wouldn't you rather watch some Canadian anime instead?"

As soon as I saw the headline I thought, "living tissue over a metal endoskeleton, what could possibly go wrong..."

Obama's falsehoods also spurred a lot if skepticism on politics.

When conservatives riot, it's an "attack", "coup", "insurrection", "threat to our democracy" and so forth, but when liberals riot, like the BLM riots that went on for months, causing vastly more deaths and property damage than January 6, it's a "peaceful protest".

If he wants to go with a car analogy, an iPhone is like a car where opening the hood requires a key that's only available to the dealership mechanics. It keeps clueless users from messing around in there, and protects the manufacturer's income stream. Android, on the other hand, is like a car that lets end users and third party mechanics open the hood and install potentially non-OEM parts in there.

Which of the three will be making the GE minigun?

These specific companies still advertise? Why?

Gotta say as much as I "hate" Microsoft, having been an OS/2 guy in a past life, Linux for half of the '90's, brief fling with Apple products in 2000-2005 and then Linux again, the Surface is a decent looking piece of hardware. I'd consider buying one if I could install Linux on it.

I've also overcome my hatred of Dell recently after realizing that they do actually build real machines and not just those "my first laptop" ones that your company issues you. You can even find a Dell Precision laptop on their website that you can have them install Linux on for you. You'll want to wipe their Dell version of Linux for something else once you get it and you really do have to hunt for the machine on their web site, but it IS there!

That's definitely the only reason I can think of to put a "LASER" on a satellite! No other reason at all, nope!

I want one against Fox News, with the stipulated punishment ranging from severe wedgies to face punching depending on the level of stupidity that came out of the anchor's mouth that week.

It could also be a sign of depression or of just being broke AF this month.

Longmont's municipal fiber is $60 a month, pretty good deal. We've also had one minor outage in the last 5 years that was fixed within a couple of hours without us having to call in.

I haven't gone looking for routers that can handle more than a gigabit. I imagine you might have to buy 10 gig gear for that. That stuff's super-expensive and doesn't handle wireless from what I've seen.
