I wonder what the apologists from .ml have to say...

Just goes to show that, yes, stupid racist remarks can have a massive impact.

My understanding is that it boots faster. That's a nice thing to have on a container that spins up on demand.

OK, it was a basic pattern recognition model, nothing nearly as sophisticated as we have now, but I think it would have performed significantly faster.

I had the idea to offload machine learning to GPUs back in the early 00's. I was working for a company doing number plate recognition back then, so I was even in a position to act on my idea... but my boss thought I was nuts.

I'm not sure how much money I would have made, but it's got to be better than this!

I went from Boost for Reddit straight to Boost for Lemmy. It does everything I need and the dev is quite active with new features etc.

That's news to me - and a bit of a dick move.

New Thinkpads are still great Linux laptops, so there's a steady stream of newer 2nd hand models coming on the market.

The A Delta spokesperson said the airline "will decline to comment further." ®

Huh, did they really register that sentence? :D

The ® is appended to all articles on The Register since I've known it, some 20 years now...

C# is much more recent than C/BCPL etc. What's interesting, though, is how many of C these more modern languages are inspired by C. C is also very much still in use!

Yeah, that's the broken window fallacy.

That's all well and good, but many of these Windows machines were headless or used by extremely non-technical people - think tills at your supermarket or airport check-in desks. Worse, some of these installations were running in the cloud, so console access would have been tricky.

Or lovely but poor parents. I hated the whole gap year culture when I went to University. Everyone carried on like they were so cool. No, you weren't, you were just rich enough to afford flights and to do fuck all for a year.

Snapshots are read only. Best plan is to rollback to a snapshot you think works, test it and if all is good use sudo snapper rollback to make the current snapshot the default. I usually reboot at that point too, not sure if it's necessary though.

Income from capital can be, and is, taxed differently. In the U.K. there is Capital Gains Tax, for example. Why not adjust this instead of income tax?

Biden isn't a boomer, he's the generation before, silent IIRC. There's a good chance you will have to choose between two boomers next election.

I use Tumbleweed btw.

I'll give you this - they're definitely not the worst.

Fuck me, I hope you don't just render whatever HTML the user gave you!

Not to be nit-picky, but I'm pretty sure they kicked him because they thought he was antisemitic, not because he was too left wing.
