MariaDB ditches products and staff in restructure, bags $26.5M loan to cushion fall

No wonder they are going down, if the only thing they did was change CEO, not much money in that.

Microsoft leaves Pakistan but promises customers won't notice the change

The market of a country that cant even run a power grid ?

Re: Top priority

Yes lets outsource to the same country that cant even run electrical power 24/7 or pick up the rubbish in any of its major cities.

Pakistan is almost a failed state... they cant even run electricity or clean water in major portions of the country. Im surprised MS even bothers to sell anything there.

WHy wasnt this group of corporate wizards checking the systems yesterday before the attack ?

Why didnt Q pay for the airport themselves ?

UK to buy nuclear-capable F-35As that can't be refueled from RAF tankers

Re: Re-fighting WW2

The only war they are fighting is for Hollywood and fly bys during superbowls.

I remember seeing a few YT vids about whether a single F35 could stop the japanese at Pearl Harbour.

How is any number of F35s going to stop 1000s of drones ?

Why would anyone buy a few chinese fighters when they can buy 1000 drones instead for less money ?

Buying F35 of any kind is plain dumb.

For the total cost of F35s and their support carriers the UK should have bought missiles, like 1000s of them.

Those 1000 missiles could deliver far more damage against Russia, than a few dozen F35s.

The UK could have bought thousands of missiles for the cost of the two new carriers and these F35s.

Please tell me which has a great range and which has will be able to deliver MORE hits upon Russia ?

I guess these can go with the Uks carriers which fly American planes.

Why does the UK even bother to have a military when it keeps buying incomplete useless equipment that it doesnt control at all.

US Department of Defense will stop sending critical hurricane satellite data

Re: There isn't a hurricane on the way

I think Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico, because he wanted the hurricans to ONLY destroy the worthy red voters of America.

Those non americans in communist cuba and other counties can buy and pay for their own hurricanes.

Re: There isn't a hurricane on the way

Funny that you mention weather only affects deviants, because the states that get slammed by hurricans are all red voters.

Arent the primary victims of hurricans the same RED voters that love trump ?

Said it before and will say it again, those red voters wanted to fuck others for a few more dollars and it appears they are the ones being fucked for everything by their glorious leader.

Talk about karma.

SpaceX's Starship explodes again ... while still on the ground

Re: I'm starting to wonder

AC: Nobody is claiming that Gwynne has built a rocket.

cow:

Yes it a different skillset, but you completely overplay and over evaluate putting people in place compared to building rockets.

She can write as many emails as she likes but she isnt going to bullshit physics, and fix the problems that caused the last Starship to blow up.

Re: Mars ... to go, where no man will go

Even with a broken Russia, USA hasnt the balls to even say boo to Putin.

Re: Mars ... to go, where no man will go

Elon doesnt want a Mars colony, he wants the American people to pay him to play with rocket pretending its about Mars.

Elons show and circus is working because you obviously cant tell. Elon doesnt care about his workers, what makes you think he cares about humanity and is doing the Mars thing because he cares ?

Re: Spectacular

Its great how America is investing billions so Elon can play with rocket while America is falling apart. Broken bridges, roads, people who have lost hope and become homeless by the thousands....

but they have Elon blowing up Starships.

Its not quite that simple. As we have seen its not only engines that fail its many other parts. Its the weakest link, it only takes one to fail and the thing is toast.

Imagine hoping for not only one rocket to get into LEO, but dozens or hundreds which in turn provide fuel and more to others which must also be perfect on their trip to Mars, and then the Mars lander itself must be perfect on its landing.

WHat guarantee is there that the landing rockets will land and not blow up ?

The number of rockets is only the start of the SS problem.

Doing engineering in space to produce a tank that does not leak is going to be basically impossible. They will be building and launching tanks into space and hoping it works without the ability to manufacture and test on the ground. This is going to be an impossible task in terms of time required and cost because of the launch cost.

Then we have the problem of the constant change in SS itself. The tiles keeps changing. Sure they must or need to change but its basically a lottery. They have made no progress, they have tried many things and many have failed. I appreciate thats how rocket science works, but that doesnt change the fact they are no where nearer to actually accomplishing the simple task of landing on the Moon. Simple here is a label comparing the Moon and Mars. If you cant do the Moon today then tehres no way you can do Mars.

THey will never put anything on Mars except a suicide capsule. No base, just a prison, when the poor team there wishes they were in a Prison on earth because its paradise.

Hardly any different from your good self.

How many products in your home were produced by kids and slaves in all but name ?

In Nazi germany it was almost impossible to be a scientist and not be a nazi member.

Its almost like it simpossible to not wave american flags everywhere in america. Does that mean every flag waver in america is a trumpian ?

Re: I'm starting to wonder

Yeh because being a manager is so much harder than being a rocket engineer.

Bullshit over actual actions.

Re: I'm starting to wonder

So why not give credit to the engineers who actually did the work ?

Congratulations this is why America is going down the shithole. Pretending CEOs are gods, paying them billions while the real workers get shafted and paid next too nothing. THis is WHY and HOW America got Trump and Elon. Complete lack of honesty and balance which would have prevented all this mess and actually been a fair distribution based on merit instead of bullshit.

Re: I'm starting to wonder

Gwen hasnt done shit. The rocket engineers have done all the smart stuff.

WVB was "forced" to be a NAZI. He never actually did any nazi things, unlike Musk who actively participated at the front of the new American nazi era.

Said it before and will say it again, Starship will never be successful to the Moon or Mars.

Its going to be repeated failure over and over again.

Firefox is dead to me – and I'm not the only one who is fed up

Re: Fine for me

How can anyoe possibly watch 2000 YT videis at the same time ?

Re: I still use it, but...

The world is full of idiots.

Re: I still use it, but...

Only 6000 ?

Theres the problem. Im sure if we were to graph management v engineering costings, we will eventually see managers eating the liions share. The death of FF is directly related to the disease of Americann corporate management dropping its parasitic fangs.

Re: AI

Americans keep on thinking celebrities are decent, even after countless examples of them being the opposite, Michael, Ellen, OJ

Couldnt you change the user agent reported by FF and hope the site isnt actually feature detecting ?

FF is the perfect example why corporate America kills everything.

Soo much greed, for the last extra 1% when they didnt need to try and grab it. Just ask Trump he is trying to save i dont know what, but its a small amount, and has just destroyed the American economy.

Japan builds near $700M fund to lure foreign academic talent

Re: I'll say it

Japan and AMerica are not that different. In both cases they make gods out of those in upper management. Its almost a death penalty in America to suggest that a CEO should only make 100x more than those below them.

Yeh im sure working 80 hours a week in japan and then spending 2 - 3 hours on the train each way is a great life.

Homeless peple in Australia have a better life than a working Japanese.

European consumers are mostly saying 'non' to trading in their old phones

i limit my loser time on a laptop, i dont take a phone everywhere with me and spend hours ...

Re: I'm confused...

Get a life, theres more to life than just watching phones.

Only losers need to upgrade their phones every 2 or 3 years.

If your phone really matters that much then you are definitely a loser with no life.

Amazon CISO: Iranian hacking crews ‘on high alert’ since Israel attack

Its amazing how religious aresholes always need weapons, and yet the profess that their god says they are right and has selected them because they are special.

All that praying because god listens to them, and yet they dont trust their god to protect them.

Yes its all Israel's fault that Iran wants to build nukes.

How could he know this ?
