Comment Re: Subjective anyone? (Score 1) 282

In 2025 the word "slacker" shouldn't even exist. We have industrial automation, mechanized agriculture, AI and othet gimmicks. US GDP is around 100k per head, that's around 4-500k for a typical Simpsons-like family. Yet such a family earns on average 80k.

There's zero justification for anyone in the US to have to work more than a day per week. That's the "slacking" boundary.

They said Kelvin wanted a word (actually wanted to have its beer held) whe suggested that "-40 degreea" doesn't nees further specification, because it's the same temperature for all systems; implying that "Kelvin" would disagree.

It wouldn't.

"... degrees" is only ever Celsius or Fahrenheit, never Kelvin.

"I have no problem if enemies of..." is a key phrase of fascism.

Whatever ot was that your elder generation fought and died against 80 years ago... you're right in the center of that spectrum, and at the opposite end ot your forefathers' conviction. You're literally their enemy.

Comment Re: AWS (Score 2) 63

The problem is: if war ensues tomorrow (which it likely will), and US and EU end up on not-quite-the-same-side (which the POTUS pretty much made clear could be the case, as the US is not on anybody's side bit its own)... could then the US side take influence on the "Euripean AWS" Airbus cloud hosting?

See? That's why it's not sovereign even if they move AWS to EU.

I know that anecdotes aren't data, but I've never seen a properly installed GitLab, except for the official GitLab.com. Every instance I've worked with so far (about 4, spread across 3 different organizations and 2 decades) suffers from occasional random timeouts when authenticating.
