Well crowdstrike are definitely the experts in killing servers both linux and Windows based so why not. Sersiouly though didn't people learn the lesson of what a joke Crowdstrikes security and development processes are through the multiple clusterfucks already.

yes they are called robots which most chinese car builders have rapidly adopted. Robots happily work 24x7, they don't demand pay rises and they don't get sick or go on strike

The idea that a person has access to wallets at all is so fucked up security wise as to be a joke,

That's why you use products that scan/whitelist/have aging policies with repo firewalls so you don't need IT to be individually whitelisting but still can set policies and restrictions to avoid the majority of these sort of fuck ups. The more critical the systems the more strict the policy needs to be.

Everything about this says Binance have appalling security practises from the engineers up. Truly scary for an organisation that deals with so much money. how the hell are their DevOps engineers allowed to install unvetted/scanned packages direct from the internet, this is pure amateur hour stuff.

except most people don't get home with a flat battery, they get home with 50%+ in the battery and will happily let it drain some before then filling up on the cheap rates overnight.

it isn't so much for blackout. Think of areas with time of day pricing, you can pull from your battery during peek evenbing or morning periods and load the car battery during cheap cycles.

well actually yes most blacksmiths were replaced and yes most farmers were replaced. AI is no different.

yep that is the key to it, Rote Learning. The repeated exposure to the workings helps cement it in your head. We had the same in Uni, many of the Math books the full answers with workings were in the back and we were encouraged to use to correct our own work, even final exams in my post grad degree were open book (double edged sword that though as with open book they expect perfection on the answers)

Many said and thought the same about calculators. you just need to adapt to how you check homework and it should be by them showing an understanding of what they have done, if they understand the workings without a prompt or AI in front of them then what tool they used is irrelevant.

Not into the annual mindless CoD/FIFA/NBA etc myself BUT that mindless interaction with friends is what many people are looking for. If that does it for them why should they expand their horizons? gaming is their to entertain and whether that is a ball on a string game or complex games with indepth stories comes down to whatever fulfills the persons needs.

The original Xbox was sold at a serious loss to gain market share. component cost wise it would have been around $450 or around $850 today. They may still do something similar

It is a good couple of years off and even current gen is not far off these prices. As long as it is not crippled spec wise it will probably be fine, Sony will be releasing in a similar price bracket as well unless something happens like an AI collapse to reduce component costs (unlikely in the timeframe)

retro gaming is little more than a rounding error and that is unlikely to change even with these ridiculous prices.

yeah not likely, even Sony's 6 year old console is at $900 as it is so expensive for components now. These prices are likely at the lower end of their new incoming console costs as well.
