OK, The time is right

How many of you are ready to fund me asking the whales if under water explosions make them feel they are haunted?

If you want the real free market, you have to include the cost of bribing politicians.

Politics ain't free, you know

Just shut the fuck up already.

HP simply has no idea what Teradici is.

I've wanted to buy Teradici for a couple of architecture studios that I work with. The idea being the heavy-duty CAD workstations will live in a rack in a climate-controlled room, and all of the architects will work on a cheap desktop PC, or on their laptops from wherever they are.

I've spoken to HP directly, multiple times, and no-one could give me a straight answer as to what SKUs I needed to purchase, or even what the hardware requirements would be for a simple studio setup with 10-20 CAD workstations being served out to the architects via PCoIP.

I wanted to give them money, and they couldn't work out how to take it.

Teradici is actually a really good product, and the performance is amazing.
HP don't seem to know what it is, what to do with it or how to sell it.
I've attempted to buy Teradici for a number of clients over the years, dealing directly with HP, and no-one has known anything about it, what licensing is required for a simple setup, or what other hardware and software requirements there are beyond the marketing copy on the website.

I've demoed it, and actively wanted to give HP my money and they couldn't work out how to sell it.

oil was not valued as this but we depend on it

$25 Billion In Anthropic is hubris

we do not depend on it (yet) invest in what you know and get of the plane that depends on oil...

get over yourself

Sounds like this will reduce the diversity of package management - which will help enormously with the problem of multiple Linuxes (Linuxen?) because users won't keep being told that moving between Linuxes is as complex as moving from Amiga to Mac or DEC VAX.

As for running Windows code without you having to give permission on each an every occasion in triplicate, signed in blood - this sounds like a totally unacceptable security risk to me!

Maybe not ...

But you can sure as hell die trying!

Requiring cars to not allow themselves to be used as getaway cars in armed robberies, whether autonomous or not.

Any politician who votes for this has proven themselves unfit for the purpose for which they were elected, and should be declared to be inadequate for any office, let alone a "high office".

In my view, they should be required to get a medical certification that they are sane before they are allowed out of the house.

The solution is obvious: don't connect smart TVs to the Internet. Use a Raspberry Pi or similar as a media centre and only let the TV see a video signal.

This is just a wrapper. They will use it to lock down an actual life saving solution, so unless you pay the literal blood money, you can't access the cure - or even worse, poison yourself or your patient in the process.

No this is much worse than a non-solution to a non-problem, it's a distinct obstacle to sharing, distributing or using an actual solution to a real problem.

Restricting right to repair should be covered by RICO or other anti extortion and racketeering legislation.

I don't see what the point of this is or why anyone would bother. AI requires lots of compute which in turn requires lots of power and generates lots of heat. In space, power is at a premium and it's difficult to get rid of excess heat. It is far easier to transmit the data to the ground and do the computations there. Ground based compute can also be upgraded far more readily.

for fecks sake

there is a reason why you dont do compute in space its dumb and however much you think there is power etc you still have to launch that weight up there
best option is to do all of this on earth and raw data transmitted is the best option

the ultimate is a passive system like a bent pipe

get over it
