Storage. There aren’t enough hard drives, so datacentres are also buying up SSDs, since it’s needed to store training data.

The personal project is a matter of personal pride, whereas for work, any old thing will do, as long as it meets the requirements.

Del is files, Rmdir is directories.

Running del on folders just leaves an empty tree.

Thing go up instead of down.

It’s Google’s version of an IDE with AI integrated, where you type a bit of code, and get Bard to fill stuff in.

I don’t think he is one, not really.

I think he wants to be one, but isn’t one himself, which is perhaps sadder.

“The customer is always right” might get misused a lot, but it is correct in this instance.

If a lot of your customers don’t like something, it’s not something wrong with the customers.

It is literally taking the Lord’s name in vanity.

Or if you have good hardware that doesn’t need the transcoding. If I was loading up h265 video on my server, I’d need to convert it to h264 or something else compatible if I wanted to use it with my iPad, since it’s old enough it doesn’t support doing anything but software decoding of that codec, and it doesn’t have the strongest processor.

Hadn’t bitcoin not been viable on GPUs for over a decade? Most of the cryptocurrency hype was mining other coins on GPUs, or using them to do blockchain calculations for NFTs and things.

At the same time, it is trivially easy to strip a + alias, so I’d not trust it to do anything much at all.

To a lesser extent, so did the Lorax’s Aloysius O’Hare.

The anti-vegans, who are strong proponents of an all-meat diet.

That would make sense, if they were doing something like tracking how often and what categories trigger their moderation filter.

Just in case an errant update or something causes the statistic to suddenly change.

I think that’s their point. You wouldn’t have a choice again if Intel goes out of business.

Or chicken breasts. That’s how you end up a greentext.

It’s been that for a while. Tumblr’s had it a while, between the earlier days of the user base, and the site not being the most well-coded thing compared to Twitter or Reddit.

You also can’t exactly get ethical approval to put microplastics into people for the purposes of scientific experimentation. Or at least, it would be very difficult. More so when current evidence shows that it does have actively harmful effects.

Maybe it’s cascade effects? Something depends on something else, which depends on a third thing that depends on AWS for something?

It would be interesting what kind of effects this might have on the mice, since they would be used to mouse estrous cycles, rather than human ones.

They do call it a Hellsite for many reasons. Not being profitable is one of them.

At the same time, it has calmed down a bit as the user base has aged up, and the more volatile elements have left for bluer skies.

Oddly enough, other than the mess of the NSFW filter, it’s been fairly controversy free. You can still use their API without paying globs of money, for example. Twitter and Facebook have all thrown that out, and Reddit has made other bad decisions, in addition to imploding their third party app ecosystem.
