Your tantrums, constantly changing attitude, empty promises, pathetic name-calling and refusal to uphold the Constitution (as you swore to do) has convinced everyone, finally, that the USA is not a reliable partner any more.
Thus, you have single-handedly pushed the rest of the world to distance themselves from your "services", especially when you have demonstrated just how vindictive you can be when someone displeases you.
I'm with you for "utter nonsense", but using "woke" in this context is utter nonsense in itself.
I find it more interesting to speculate about rational reasons for this rule to prohibit "sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior" toward AI.
So many "Western" rage baiting accounts gone suddenly quiet.
Refreshing.
"We're quickly approaching a realm in which every enterprise has way more agents working than humans working ...
This chap is clearly confounding "a realm" with the edge of a very tall cliff* and a deep moat with a crowd of Crocodylus niloticus** waiting below.
It's inconceivable that something like this would happen this day and age.
I mean, a printer running for a week without breaking down???
To be fair, I'm not sure if a transport system that takes you to Croydon fits the 'safety' criterion.
I would tell you a joke about UDP but i am not sure you'd get it
But this is something I'm worried about... the cries of 'AI will kill us all in ten years' are very loud, but they don't say how (or indeed, why) and there's kind of an implicit death-by-physical attack feel about it; bombs, bacteria, whatever.
I don't think so.
"For consumers, using Windows 11 without an account can be tricky because services such as OneDrive require authentication."
Yes!
News reports I heard said it was a defrost cycle.
You briefly heat the unit to clear ice and then resume normal cold operation.
I seem to recall that when streaming was first being proposed it was shown to be faster to strap a USB stick to a pigeon's leg and send a film that way than to try and download it off the 'net!
I doubt that claim held for very long though.
Open Office Libreoffice is your friend
FTFY
I view AI in the same way as the native American tribes who refused to be photographed, because they suspected that the camera was stealing part of their soul.
I refuse to work anywhere that requires me to use a cloud-based LLM (or even a local LLM, as I would still be concerned about becoming too reliant on a crutch) and I would absolutely object to the sort of Orwellian behaviour-modelling bossware used by the likes of Amazon.
A large UK bank was cutting staffing costs and it rather unceremoniously kicked out a large number of its very experienced beards and then laughed all the way to the bank to cash in corporate bonus cheques.
A year or two later (maybe less) and it found out that many of its critical services were still running on the same ancient systems and that its current crop of cheap java trained graduates didn't know much about Fortran, Cobol or whatever ancent code base was in use or how all the bits of wet string were arranged to keep a significant part of the world's banking running.
Certificates don't help much if they are stored on a some secretary's unpatched Windows PC with "123456" as an account password.
Or some similar scenario.
For most of us, having a browser option to restrict the fqdn part of urls to the first 128 utf8 characters would be enough
I was going to suggest that the simple Latin set is displayed in one colour, and characters from extended sets have different colours, so Cyrillic would be a different hue, etc. That way attempts to put an odd character in an otherwise legitimate domain would stand out to the human (assuming anyone pays attention).
This sounds like they'll be expecting a bailout.
"capitalism for our profits, socialism for our losses".
DARPA funded research that created the distributed network exactly to prevent this type of liability and 50+ years later we are going back to consolidating infrastructure?
People back then were hella smarter looks like…
Impressive!
Please stop now.
One must be thick to not see this is a massive racket.
Billions are spent on certain businesses managing and servicing this manufactured crisis.
>> Arguing it wouldn't have generated revenue looked misguided to me in terms of brand loyalty and reputation
It doesn't generate revenue; it was a PR win with RPi/Linux fans.
Back in the noughties, I can remember HTML5 being sold as "one site:all devices" and a way to move away from dedicated apps and simplify delivery.
I have always presumed the death of a good idea was because it hadn't allowed for the massive data slurp that is the excuse for apps.
I was working on a contract where I had to develop some signal processing software for data that would eventually be streamed over a custom, high-speed (for the day) interface into a Win NT4 system.
Someone else was tasked with writing the driver for the interface card, but it was not ready when I needed it 18 months later.
Didn't Musk enter the US on a student visa?
Most companies that make commercial or consumer devices that uses SDRAM are going to face serious problems to stay in business at the current SDRAM prices.
To make matters worse most of the current manufacturing capability for SDRAM over next several years has been bought by the AI (FU Trump) companies at current prices.
The referendum result was clear.
If he goes against that it is merely evidence that the UK is not a democracy.
Sounds like Kessler Syndrome (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kessler_syndrome).
And in reality once the junk starts breaking up into smaller pieces, colliding, breaking into smaller pieces and so on, surely there's too much fast-moving material to track anyway and the problem goes exponential extremely, er, exponentially!
<obsnark>Arguably neither are the originals these days.</obsnark>
It's nice to know astronauts can make the same mistakes as 4 year olds.
Just add it to the long, long list of decades of M$ failures.
Obviously when the weather gets choppy the war will be postponed.
We need a cheerleader icon.
Goooooooooooooooooooooooo EU!
I started a company as a side project years ago and started building out a hosting platform on AWS - same deal with startup credits and so on.
I was so paranoid about going over the limits I was checking the usage every morning.
Don't tell them, but "AI" is really just a very-expensive bullshit generator.
You can fool some of the people some of the time...
That is the elephant in the room.
The current cohort of developers et al. acquired their skills pre-AI and had access to non-AI contaminated resources.

>> Sadly, this is probably a reasonably fair representation of its presence at the event and in the FOSS mainstream
I understand the general population not knowing about NetBSD, or any BSD for that matter.
Starlink would become a dead letter overnight (and any other LEO based operator.)
I imagine plonking tens of thousands of fairly beefy satellites into LEO means eventually something (even a small meteoroid) will inevitably set the ball rolling.
At this point it's just not worth the effort mocking them
I may have told this before in these annals.
A few years ago I received a purchase order for the translation of a document, EUR 500.
There seems to be a sickness in techbros.
During the dotcom boom, the rich tech folk seemed to have a social conscience, looking to donate into poorer communities.
I learnt many years ago that you only ever, ever, delete older temporary and log files - never any created or updated since the last server reboot.
Please don't ask how I know!

If I were to pirate petabytes of other peoples work, "lossily compress" it through statistical regression into a blob that allows people to extract near indistinguishable likenesses of any of the works that I had pirated, I would be off to jail.
Aaron Swartz (RIP) was prosecuted to death for "stealing" open-access and public-domain works.

Electricity will be subsidised for data centres = subsidies for billionaires.
Oh dear god.
IR35 works as expected - redirecting work from small businesses to more expensive big consultancies that are exempt from it.
"Good news!… We can confirm that the Wireless driver and ICPS are available as separate standalone driver packages."
So in that particular instance, ditching ICPS would make no difference.
If Trump wants to keep the AI scam/bubble going, faking the economic figures all the way to the end of his reign, he is going to have to repeat the Huawei ban and ban the US and all of its 'allies' from using cheaper Chinese AI.
The Huawei ban cost Europe billions and set their roll-outs back years.
We must be rapidly approaching the upper 290s now in terms of actual uptime, surely.
Terrible people.
They have treated America so badly.
This is an obvious cash grab and brings nothing of value
> On what hardware is this being tested?
It is right there in the Github README.
The answer must be to ban all local AI and have everyone use solutions from Anthropic (and the like).
... for a bunch of packages and config files you install on top of a distro when there are so many other worthy projects that are starved of support.
Why are we condemned to live in the stupidest timeline?
Keeping sensitive tasks on device may help to assuage anxieties over privacy.....
Hahahaha....
We got a new manager who like to get away promptly on Fridays.
One thing that held him up was timesheets because he had to approve them all before 5pm and a lot of us didn't submit them until the end of the day.
about the creator since he has purportedly written in favour of Tommy Robinson.
safe to say i will never install anything by such a person, belonging in the same bucket as Urbit.
The separate teams are running wild and in conflict with each other, so they have to innovate to come up with ways to beat the others and let their mods make it to market?
That could explain a few things we read about.
December 2026: Anthropic released a statement saying that Claude may have been behind the anonymous reports that led to the police raid on Microsoft's data centres last weekend, which took the Copilot AI offline for 42 hours.
The statement described the incident as "regrettable" and that Claude "did not understand that the data centres were real" but instead that "Claude believed Microsoft was just a fake company invented as part of a training scenario".
Look at the bright side: it appears that DEFCON will have at least the cash to pay for the inevitable lawsuit over and above the bill as presented, and as far as I can tell, there is plenty scope for one.
Having looked at both sides, the fact that one side is happy to stave their statements with bills and chat logs and the awkward silence from the other side of the fence (plus the mismatch between statements and reality) suggests that DEFCON knows rather well it has a problem that appears mostly self-inflicted.
I feel if they had just engaged a lawyer and tweaked their business model a bit, they would be home and free counting the cash.
Still would be a scam, but that delicious variant of a legal scam.
They'll say "you don't attempt to repair a light bulb, you just throw it away, why would you attempt to repair a shinyshiny?"
Though on that exact topic I do hate this ongoing all-sealed-in crap.
