I wish they made Sailfish compatible phones with the radio for Band 71 in USA.

I believe his name was Steve Jobs. Here's an article.

He already got bored of yammering on about Harvard, I'm sure his interest in intel will equally pass.

They don't manufacture their chips. TSMC does that. Nvidia designs the chips, subcontracts the hardware manufacturing to Taiwan and sells the hardware at a fine profit. Why would they want to move to China? Life is more fun for designers in California. Like Apple, they will be having some of their chips manufactured at one of TSMC's new plants in Arizona, so they don't have to worry about the tariffs.

In the near future: The sales manager of Yangtze Memory Technologies Corp builds a Gazebo in rural northern Louisiana. The middle of a gazebo features a large and farm. "They're always building," he says. The gazebo is widely ridiculed by the Trump administration, until it starts cranking out semiconductor chips. Then, the entire gazebo and the surrounding 200 yards of lawn are firebombed after National Semiconductor claims it's clearly an act of genetic terrorism.

I should have included a link to this more recent article also.

Here's a story about some people's efforts to try and deal with that.

I've been pretty happy with the ErgoFSK from Cloud Nine as an ergo keyboard with mechanical keys. It is pretty huge, but I get the same feeling I have from Microsoft's split ergo keyboard.

All the smuggling channels that have been funded buy the war on drugs ought to be able to make a nice profit on small high value consumer goods like cameras, personal electronics and jewelry.

For earners in the 97th, 98th, and 99th percentile, a flat tax on all income and capital gains at the tax percentage for earners in the 96th percentile. Top earners shouldn't have to pay exorbitant tax lawyer fees.

But, that's how media on the internet works, isn't it? Porn pays for the development, and once the production system is mature, it goes mainstream.

To control local hardware with a computer, I like Control By Web Their hardware interfaces do use Ethernet / Wifi to talk to the computer, but they don't call home. The web pages in question are the ones hosted by each device. They claim to send/receive data and instructions via: HTTP, HTTPS, SSL, XML, MQTT, Modbus TCP/IP, SNMP, SMTP, & Remote Services. Of course, air gapping the home control network from the internet is often beneficial.

My company doesn't have the latest version of Office, and the version dates we do have can vary by a few years, so I just save everything I touch in a 15 year old format, because the new format provides nothing I need for 99.9% of documents, and the remaining 0.1% can be pdf. I use LibreOffice. Others use Word 2016 or 2012, and none of it particularly matters.

For governments, the things LibreOffice complains about with OOXML ought to be security concerns. If you can't know how to duplicate what's correct, then you can't know someone didn't slip in something nefarious. There should be a subset: OOXML-SV (for "Security Validated") and OOXML-SV documents should have to be able to successfully pass validation by an open source document security validator app. Then, LibreOffice can only open and save documents in OOXML-SV format "because we care about security."

I hope he is also collecting a sufficient ecosystem for keeping them.

India should try hiring Chinese engineers and buying Chinese technology from belt and road projects where the local governments have been required to accept them. I'm sure that the Chinese government will prevent it, but when they do, it will demonstrate clearly that the Chinese nationals doing the construction are not just construction workers, but rather are an arm of the Chinese government. It should be win-win for India. They either get the brains and tech or they get the PR from the Chinese government reaching out to shut down the poaching.
