- Comment on Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM? 1 day ago:
Overpriced, over-hyped consumer hardware that’s loud, obnoxious, and not that much better than significantly cheaper options.
You’re paying for the brand, and a bunch of obnoxious LED lights that are plugged in to every spare inch of the thing.

I wish it was still 1999 :(

Larian proving again and again, that they get it.

You can do whatever you want there, as long as you are ok with the penalties.

Your friend is either an idiot, or so far removed from what it takes to get by as normal people that he’s like the 10 dollar banana Michael meme.

Depends on when the bust happens. If its in the current admin? All those tech companies are getting bailed out.

1 Trillion % this.

It’s not even that novel. They’ve been doing it since 1997.

Fucking loved the Zune.
- Comment on ‘There isn’t really another choice:’ Signal chief explains why the encrypted messenger relies on AWS 3 weeks ago:
Multi cloud is very difficult to do well.
Multi region is already hard enough with transactional management not being easy to split between the regions, and multi-cloud is another order of magnitude more difficult than multi region.
With that said, use2 and others were still up, so if they were just multi region and failed over to east2 they would have been fine.
- Comment on A single point of failure triggered the Amazon outage affecting millions 3 weeks ago:
Monopolies exist exactly like this. With them not competing fairly and coordinating with one another so as to not encroach on theory territory.
Ever wonder why despite there being dozens of ISPs in the country, you’ve only ever got an option for like a main one, and an intentionally shitty one to make the main one look better?
It’s all a rigged game.
- Comment on ‘There isn’t really another choice:’ Signal chief explains why the encrypted messenger relies on AWS 3 weeks ago:
Those are the only 3 that matter at the top tier/enterprise class of infrastructure. Oracle could be considered as well for nuanced/specialized deployments that are (largely) Oracle DB heavy; but AWS is so far ahead of Azure and GCP from a tooling standpoint it’s not even worth considering the other two if AWS is on the table.
It’s so bad with other cloud providers that ones like Azure offers insane discounts on their MSSQL DB (basically “free”) licensing just to use them over AWS. Sometimes the cost savings are worth it, but you take a usability and infrastructure cost by using anything other than AWS.
I honestly, legitimately, wish there was some other cloud provider out there that could do what AWS can do, but they don’t exist. Anyone else is a pale imitation from a devops perspective. It sucks. There should be other real competitors, especially to the US based cloud companies as the US cannot be trusted anymore, but they just don’t exist without taking a huge hit in terms of tools, APIs, and reliability options, to AWS.

Betteridge’s law is never wrong. Or is it?
No.

Pretty much a totaling of the vehicle if they have insurance.
The frame damage alone would be expensive as hell to fix, and then you’ve got the whole drivetrain that fell off.

I don’t think the people who are likely to become evicted due to poor decisions on their part, would be interested in taking a class in how not to become evicted.
This Venn diagram has no overlap.

- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 1 month ago:
That’s like saying we have more cancer now than in the past.
Sure, that might be true in certain scenarios (we’re very good at creating new ways to give ourselves cancer).
The truth is that we’re living longer, increasing the risk and likelihood of cancer, and we’ve gotten a LOT better at finding and diagnosing cancer and specific types.

Hyberbaric chambers have a tendency to explode.
There was one in the new the other day that tragically exploded with a small child inside.
- Comment on There isn’t an AI bubble—there are three 1 month ago:
This all assumes AI has some generally valuable use case on the scale of the literal Internet being invented.
AI is nowhere near that useful
- Comment on Flying cars crash into each other at Chinese air show 1 month ago:
That’s always been the idea behind flying cars.
The ones that turn into planes are just planes that can be driven around a little easier than a normal plane.
If you want flying cars to work in a real city, they need VTOL capabilities.

- Comment on Borderlands 4 Patch Due Out Today, PC Performance 'Our Top Priority,' Gearbox Says 2 months ago:
People who spend every waking moment working on something end up caring about it. Being a game dev in the AAA industry is brutal. You only do it if you really like working on games. The pay sucks, the hours suck, and the benefits suck.
The only thing you really get to keep is the pride in your work when the game is released.
It’s clear Randy did fuckall with this game, because he lacks any pride in what his devs have accomplished.

WWs creator was a fairly well known bondage enthusiast. It’s not a secret, the only mystery is why DC decided to make it a part of her canon lore, even to this day.
