Andrew K comes across as a generally nice person IMHO.

That explains it being like the 90s. That’s Australia in general. New Zealand is more like the 70s.

Depends on what stage of life you’re at.

I’m assuming the duck’s on top

They probably are. They’re trying to make sure it hasn’t leaked onto archive.is.

Well he found out about the sub-prime mortgage fiasco by looking at the public filings that nobody bothers reading. All of the companies involved are public companies that have to file accounts. He’ll be tracing what’s going on and painting himself a picture.

Not sure if it’s exactly the same kit but you can get that for £300 in the UK.

Not a diff, but a merge tool.

There’s a different between hype and advertising.

For one, advertising is regulated.

I think that it’s an astute observation. AI wouldn’t need to be hyped by those running AI companies if the value was self-evident. Personally I’ve yet to see any use beyond an advanced version of Clippy.

Why are the American religious right so fixated on the rapture? It’s a death cult sprawling across the nation like a cancer.

…and how many come back?

Strap explosives to their chests and send them to thier competitors?

My french is good enough for the first part, and it’s practically non-existant.

This is one of the reasons I think education in languages are really important. It makes you realise that language is just an encoding of a thought. The sounds are irrelevant. The choice to try to insult is key. Just because somebody used a word you do or don’t take offence to doesn’t matter. The important part is whether they meant to cause you harm.

I doubt that was a literal shower thought .

My thoughts are “Why do they need one?”. It’s not like UEFI stops you doing anything.

UBIOS’s unique features over UEFI include increased support for chiplets and other heterogeneous computing use-cases, such as multi-CPU motherboards with mismatching CPUs, something UEFI struggles with or does not support. It will also better support non-x86 CPU architectures such as ARM, RISC-V, and LoongArch, the first major Chinese operating system.

I would say this is about increasing the level of control of the platform, not about technological issues.

Edit: For example, here’s the RISC-V UEFI specification.

Government ministers are bound by collective responsibility and so if Milliband states something definitively it is taken as government policy. All other members of government would be expected to say the same thing.

So the weasel words here are because it’s not agreed government policy that they should leave X. I expect they haven’t discussed it. If he’s more definitive it would potentially expose a split in opinion within the government (Oh the horror!).

Understand the code words. His opinion is that they should leave. This is his way of making it a topic for discussion in the government.

I’m not the only one seeing the 20 or so deals like this in the last few weeks. Right?

Is this because the SEC is shutdown?

Also China require local representatives in subsidiaries management in China, possibly even Chinese leadership. The Dutch are only playing from the same rulebook.
