RTO mandates make employees unhappy because I think they perceive it as a punitive measure. It's not "We need you to be in the office because we have a big project in the coming weeks and we need everyone on board" instead it's received as "We don't believe you're actually working anymore so now you have no choices left".

The statements I've seen have been suggesting that corporations try to make remote workers feel like those who don't come in are lazy and worthless and you need to prove your worth by being present. (See web MD RTO cringe) and the insults people suffer only go so far.

Imagine if you feel like you worked very hard through the pandemic and even through working remotely you were able to keep the ship afloat just to turn around and get spanked for it by your boss "Thanks but we really need you to get back to your REAL job and stop slacking off", you would perceive the RTO mandates as injust punishment. All self respecting people reject injustice.

::Tinfoil hat:: This is by design and they want you to quit as they are done extracting value from you and firing you is harder than making you quit.

They aren't actually mad. It's a show. Like when they yell at the food counter clerk, they don't actually care. They're more pleased with their own performative expression than anything else. They brag about it later and do the show again for their friends.

I do think it's interesting that a lot of people seem to think AI is going to take away jobs but understanding AI just a tiny fraction, it seems like the things that are threatened are one that were already micro serviced away like internet search.

We use search everyday and having the best search engine means being the best tech company. These companies are in a race to topple Googles search dominance through providing AI as a service. There's money in them hills if you can train an AI to recommend when and where to go buy the newest shiny thing that solves all your problems.

This is Great... Unfortunately this is too little too late ...

He's already moved out every asset he owns from under his control to other sources. They've given this man too much time to make himself appear "Virtually" as pauper on paper. He'll go to prison before he ever gives them a cent.

When you make a website and perform SEO tactics like the ones in this article, Google isn't providing a service to you, you're providing the service to Google.

I am using NUCs.

Knowing Nintendo the Switch 2 will already be obsolete at launch

This is the reason I believe it's delayed. Tinfoil hat rant incoming:

Nintendo usually is ready to go for obsolete cheaper designs to maximize profit on hardware. However the Nvidia tegra family successor for entertainment devices never materialized (I won't count anything on the Jetson platform). These chips never came down in price either. Nvidia pretty much dropped everything related to gaming once deep learning became its future cash cow. No shield tablets, android TV's, or gaming devices anymore. Nvidia has disappeared from the consumer arm market.

Until now. Nvidia recently been looking to bring derivatives of its Grace Hopper platform to desktops and laptops in the near future. I'm sure the timing has to do with the rumors that Qualcomm is going out as M$oft's exclusive arm for windows partner. There is a major urge in the AI field to have development uniformity across platforms and therefore arm coming directly to the developer is speeding up everyday (apple is the only name in the game atm).

That puts Nintendo in a place where to get priority, they will need to bid high for hardware. I don't think they will. They know they make toys and they will just keep stretching the life span of the switch. It's probably a better strategy anyway as Nintendo Remains in demand and they have no need to be a loss leader on hardware.

We think 8 years is long for a console but Nintendo dragged out it's Gamcube, Wii, Wii U dynasty of hardware for almost 16 years before moving to a new platform. The DS hardware line lasted much longer.

We'll get a switch 2 when Nintendo can get cheap Arm Chips.

End of rant.

I wonder if you could astro turf the hell out of this. Go deeper. Make it fun!

Make a fake identity for your company's parent company that parodies this guy https://gerritlansing.org/about-2/. Hire an actor on fiver to be red white and blue all over, set up your secret island bank accounts in the Seychelles and then go full Kojima mode lalilulelo, metal gear?! nanomachies?! etc etc.

It could be self funding ARG that protects its "fraud" as an artistic work. Qanons would eat it up.

That's some nice density you got there. While you're at it...

Can I get a 12.8TB drive 1/10th the physical size (m.2 2230) and has a steady transfer rate of 2.4GBs that costs <$200 dollhairs? Pretty please 🙏

Plenty of dudes have already beaten you to the punch. They blast people with texts that all go to fake donor sites like winred.com that then beg you to make $3,300 donations.

Hell, winred.com is just as much the same scam.

Winred still operates.

I have tried (story option below):

Currently virtualization for the desktop, even though that is in fact the future, there are many issues at the moment. For instance, graphics are holding me back.

Wendell on level 1 techs has plenty of these videos and there is one specifically where he goes in depth on spinning up a windows virtual machine and essentially using a GitHub project to make registry hacks to turn that windows VM into a fake RDS app server then using those apps via the RDP protocol.

I really like this solution but it is still less than desirable when attempting to save files, pass through devices to apps other than keyboard and mouse, run corporate ssl VPN Clients (they often enforce desktop sessions non-rdp via policy).

I follow these threads closely: https://forum.level1techs.com/t/vfio-passthrough-in-2023-call-to-arms/199671

I sometimes think maybe moving to an Intel processor with onboard video for my displays and then using the Nvidia driver patch like this https://github.com/DualCoder/vgpu_unlock or this https://github.com/ProTechEx/vgpu-proxmox to drive local 3D apps and pass GPUs into VMs is potentially something that can be used to get this going (without the need for a second discreet GPU).

I just don't want to have to do this. So I just have a windows desktop (still).

I'm out of the loop. Is Taylor Swift a jet now? I tried to google Taylor Swift as a jet and ended up on reddit.com/r/aeromorph . . .

I'm trying to move to Linux! I game on a custom built chimera OS computer using an AMD GPU. I've been using a MacBook Pro as a life raft. I still need windows for work.

I've considered once 24H2 Windows 11 release comes out that I would try to customize that image and keep it like an LTSC but I heard about some read only registry components that are going to make that very difficult. I'll just kick around on Win 10 LTSC for anything that I can't get rid of until it's no longer useful.

My dad tells me it has something to do with Communism and the color pink but I can't really understand him through his slurred speech three drinks in after Thanksgiving dinner.

This is exactly what happened.

Is this like using linked lists?

I love LXD/INCUS + ZFS! It goes together like chocolate and peanut butter.

Idk if it's worth trusting articles from this site after the fake ddos toothbrush article.

Nonetheless, I can't imagine crime not getting more sophisticated as time moves on.
