They have been saying that since the 1990's. We've constantly been told that personal hardware would be pointless and everything is going back to old school server-workstation architecture, and it still hasn't happened.

"He'll be milquetoast and set it up such that the theorcracy can agitate and con it's way back into powe within a few years."

Is he milquetoast or can he set it up so the theocracy can come back? Seem like mutually contradictory things.

Anyway, the Iranians want the Shah. There is no organized internal opposition force, he's moderately well-respected, he hates the theocracy (so why would he reinstate it?), and he's pledged supporting democracy.

The Sam Altman types, and the Thiel/Musk types especially, want technofeudalism with them on top. For some of them the "good of society" factors in but it is always after this.

We would certainly be at a disadvantage if Russia was able to copy rockets that constantly blew up shortly after launch.

A direct line between County Cork and Loudon VA does not go through the east coast of Maryland on a spherical earth, that was the only point I addressed. Even if you wanted to maximize how much is laid in the ocean as opposed to land, there are still shorter distances that would land you on at least in Delaware. While I am sure there are logistical reasons to do it where they are doing, that is irrelevant to my point.

Yeah that sounds off. Probably mean digging at coastal shallower waters then just having it lay on the floor elsewhere, that's the standard.

That's assuming we live on a flat earth. A shorter line between County Cork and the US would have the US terminus much further north.

"We are crazy."

What's incredibly frustrating is how much of the craziness has been created and driven by Australians. Other countries want to push back against Trump? Go after the lunatics who fill his dementia-ridden head with all the crazy ideas, including their companies.

"If Linus yells at you to stop doing something, you damn well listen, or move aside for someone else who will listen."

What if he's wrong on something?

I mean the dude is 55, mentally he's not going to be able to keep up with the really abstract stuff.

I've flown on Spirit many times and every bad thing you've heard about it is true.

Thatâ(TM)s not the only reason; the other two big ones are:

1. There is far greater parity between Windows and Linux in terms of stability and security over the past 15 years or so.
2. Linux has never had the software range MS
has had, and the best Linux software is also on MS plus a lot more.

I am very confused; don't movie studios use artificially generated characters frequently for special effects? Isn't it almost certain that especially over the past few years they've used AI to do that? How would this be something new?

"According to the video, officials are not required to disclose what exactly the charges are or who has brought them until the initial investigation is complete under Italian law. "

Then why does the title say he's being charged for reviewing games?

Dude, my claim isn't over some unknowable information lost to time; you can look at old game catalogues and gaming magazines and they have the prices right there.

Here's SSI's 1984 catalogue:

Look at the price list for EA and all its companies from 1987:
