What I mean is that majority of the time people here are pro copyright infringement and against copyright laws

Funny seeing people on lemmy suddenly defending copyright now lol

From a global warming perspective, I’m pretty sure fiber is actually the best because it requires less power than any sort of radio, particularly satellite (starlink or whatever). For wired alternatives, you have copper which is a very useful and expensive metal, which would be put to better use elsewhere. It’s great for transmitting electricity and heat, just not as great for data.

Fiber optics are as close to magic as we can get in data transmission. There are very few downsides.

Plus the data will be collected anyway. The guys running all the services you connect to have their own fiber. AWS and the like roll out their own intercontinental fiber even. The only question is whether American citizens would be entitled to high quality Internet service that they already paid for over 20 years ago or whether it’s time to forget all that and settle for less.

But why does it need updates if it works? Just don’t connect it to the Internet and you can run it until either it dies or you die.

If it’s from 20 years ago then isn’t that like 15 years too new to be affected by this patch?

Isn’t that just Rocky configuring the kernel that way? You’re free to compile your own kernel and it’ll still support even old pentiums, just not i486 in new versions

Other AI companies can still buy them, they’re just rare because nobody bought them in the first place. They destroy them because scanning them is faster and in some jurisdictions that absolves you from copyright infringement since the amount of copies doesn’t go up

Can’t say I’ve had your experience, Windows always had issues. Think 7 was the least problematic version for me and the last one I remember fondly.

I have a car diagnostics laptop running 8.1 because it doesn’t support legacy boot for 7 and is too weak for 10. That UX was horrendous. Then came 10 which was unusable without an SSD. That sounds like the norm now but back then a lot of people didn’t have them. I’m not even going to mention 11, it came out before the AI craze and has sucked since release.

But the really crazy side of Microsoft is the ERPs. Way too much always changing. Good old systems being retired because they have a worse new one to replace it with, etc.

The URL they posted has the same title as the post here so it’s the source that changed their title after the fact.

This wording comes in a very interesting way across

There are also flights where this could be used as fully electric right now, or very soon if they increase range a bit. If you fly from Tallinn to anywhere via Finnair, you go through Helsinki, that’s like a 30 minute flight. And the reason you don’t just drive to Helsinki is that you’d have to take the ferry which costs more money, takes over an hour and the Helsinki airport isn’t that close to the port.

Similarly, you can fly from Tallinn to the two bigger islands here in Estonia, very short flights versus like a 3 or 4 hour bus ride involving a ferry. 30 and 40 minute flights with the current 30-40 person planes that company uses.

I thought that was Israel, US is being led, not leading

T is actually short for 1000 KG not 2000 units of British currency.

Yes, carbs are great if you love working on cars. A factory fuel injection system these days (anything newer than the old Jetronic pieces of shit) is pretty much set it and forget it, plus if you do have a bad sensor or something, it’ll usually tell you (by live data reading if not DTC). Way easier to maintain than carburetors.

It’s been Chromium based for ages now. Meaning they’ll likely eventually stop supporting manifest V2 too, unless Google makes it easy for them to keep supporting it.

That in matters of taste bit was added recently, started circulating on tiktok. There’s no evidence of it being part of the original saying.

Thing is, giant mansions existed in the 19th century too. They would’ve already been affecting the average home size in the 20th century.

The growth AFAIK is largely driven by the suburban mcmansions, which aren’t necessarily a 1% thing.

Well only central banks can create it out of thin air. Normal banks lend other people’s money (fractional reserve banking)

That would be the difference between a permissioned ledger vs a decentralised cryptocurrency. Pretty hard(not impossible) to turn off someone’s bitcoin, but depending on the design, the state backed crypto might be very easy… Or not.
