Irrelevant. The heat death of the universe is a constraint unrelated to the premise of the original problem.

Seriously, I think Putin has some sort of leverage on him. It’s the only reasonable explanation, imo - particularly considering the reported contact he’s had with him in recent years, especially since the start of the Ukraine war. It’s a bit baffling that the DoD and FBI haven’t started a case against him in that particular context, since he’s been subtly working against official US international policy for a while at this point.
- Comment on Russia skirts sanctions, acquires Nvidia and AMD chips through Dell servers from India 2 weeks ago:
Sounds like there are some companies and/or individuals in India that need sanctioning too
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
So they created more vertical space on the case, which would be a perfect spot for a power button - or even more ports… and then didn’t use it.
True to form, if I’m honest.
That aside, I love that they’re getting rid of the idiotic 8GB baseline spec.

Not sure if they’re aware, but the Balmer Peak occurs at a fairly specific BAC/intoxication level, and output quality drops off significantly after that point.

If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.

In times of satisfying pet lives, though it’s quite different than “golden retriever owned by upper-middle class American family”, this has also got to be right near the top of the list.

That actually sounds like it’d make a meaningful dent in their revenue, which is good and proper in this context.
- Comment on Nvidia blocks access to video card driver updates for users from Russia and Belarus. 3 weeks ago:
Be that as it may, this is very much part of the intent of the sanctions. Creating popular dissent and dissatisfaction within Russia due to Putin’s insistence on carrying out a war of aggression is very much by design. This is the Second Cold War. We’re in it.

- Comment on Windows Recall is secretly installed on non-Copilot+PCs (Privacy Nightmare) 3 weeks ago:
No, there’s a bigger context that you’re not considering: enterprise IT orgs in privacy-sensitive/confidential domains.
This whole feature is an absolute non-starter in biotech, defense, finance, and a bunch of other industries. It’s an infosec nightmare. Legal teams will categorically refuse to allow W11 to be installed simply due to the legal jeopardy it would put their own orgs in, since it implicitly trusts MS with who the fuck knows how much data exactly.
I continue to be shocked and baffled that MS isn’t taking their stance on this product as an “always-on” thing back to the drawing board.
