I’m skeptical that governments know about these solutions given how little people in general understand technology. It’s a “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas” situation. Ideally they should have experts available to consult with when making laws to prevent BS like this.

I think there are a bunch of ships that are not at the Straight but elsewhere waiting for the situation to stabilize

Does the Supreme Court have jurisdiction over civil cases?

That certainly would weed out disabled candidates…

Do you have a citation for that photo?

My old kitty is turning 20 next week. She’s got a myriad of medical problems and really bad arthritis. I don’t think I have much time left with her, but I’ve also thought that off and on the past few years…

There’s probably a pretty significant sample bias at play here too. Do hobbyists find and answer these surveys?

I can’t speak to this specific issue but I’d recommend contacting your vet to clarify your questions. Also remember you can get a second opinion from another vet.

I am so sorry :(

Does it happen at a consistent time or frequency? Like at 8pm or after 2 hours of being turned on?

I have an old blade server that I got from work many years ago. I never set it up but just opened it up to see what’s in it and discovered it had DDR2 memory. Interested?

A hobby is “good” if you enjoy it. That’s all that matters with hobbies. Don’t look down on yourself for wanting to do something for fun. It doesn’t have to be “efficient” or turn into an income or anything else. Just try it and learn. Learn the skills, learn if you like it

I agree with this in principle. I think a tag like “rumor” might be useful as a first step? Escalate if it becomes more of a problem.

It may also be worth differentiating between a rumor and a rumor. A rumor of AMD coming out with XYZ at CES is different from “some random website is claiming that HL3 is days away from being announced”

LLMs don’t “understand” anything. They are predicting what text matches your prompt. If you don’t understand what an AI is saying, it’s not saying anything

If AI increases productivity, where’s the shovelware? Why haven’t we seen a hockey stick graph of code commits/lines/repos?

Weigh him and consult with a veterinarian. Don’t rely on random Internet strangers to determine healthy weight range for your cats.

If I’m a TV manufacturer, I have less incentive to have both connector types because it increases cost and complexity while only appealing to a very small subset of users. It will take leadership at those companies to take a bit of a leap of faith that the effort is valuable as a long term plan because it will take other manufacturers to make the ecosystem. Couple that with the fact that leadership at companies tend to not be enthusiasts or technically inclined and it makes it difficult, but not impossible. I really hope we can move electronics towards DisplayPort just so it’s an open standard instead of the HDMI for-profit model.

I agree with the sentiment but we’re dealing with a chicken and egg problem. If no TVs have DisplayPort, who would buy a console that can’t be used with their TV?

What’s the relationship between sunspots and geomagnetic storms that can affect the earth? Is this just panic bait or is there actually something potential here?
