If it is AWS, it is not independent from the US.

Which happened over and over again in past attempts. Like “TR Torx” or “Tamper Resistent Torx”, the star bit with the hole in the middle. You can find matching bits in any decent bit set.

Just like the US cut out of TicToc, we need to cut out of Facebook, X, Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc.

Oh my goodness. This guy os beyond repair.

I’ve heard a lot of “audiophile” bullshit in my life, as I work with audio, but this idiot brats them all by a nautical mile.

I got banned somewhere because there still is an account with my name in an .ml instance (which comes from my first looks into this and shopped around for a suitable place, but with .ml being no good, wasn’t used for nearly two years).

Some “admins” need their heads examined, and their privileges get taken away…

I think my old scope still has this bus. Well, it also has Windows 98…

Only in America…

What scientific publishing really needs is a cost-free publishing system that is run by the universities, and where the universities publish all their papers in.

Is the proven test method of “eat your own dog food” still valid, I.e will the people involved in this project apply those proteins on themselves to prove that they are not dangerous?

Well, it is a headline designed to catch the total idiots. Those who, if they had learned Arabic numerals in school, would actually be able to hold a job.

But he is not selling the gold reserves off, he is using them to plate his Throne -ehrm- Ballroom.

Try the German solution. To get a cart, you have to put a Euro into the cart to unchain it. When you return it, you chain it back on and get the Euro back.

Works for many years now, and people have been conditioned to it, so they return even “hacked” carts (there are tools to unchain them without a coin).

He says a lot of meaningless junk all day. The BBC basically compressed the message to the core. Nobody can really deny that he incided this criminal and law overthrowing mob.

Does any MS dev look at it and ask “Is this usable?”

As if any sane dev had any say in that.

If you don’t put the answer in the title, it’s clickbait, nothing more.

Economy is not bad enough, lets make it even worse!

For small niches, six months can be rather aprupt.

While it is good not to waste hardware, maybe you should grab the opportunity now that the windows addicts have to upgrade their hardware to “follow the light”. They usually throw out boxes with bigger chips than a Pentium M.

Why using scripts if there is a perfectly fine <table> tag that works for 30 years on any browser?

Yep. It really depends on if you have to replace some basic hardware like pipes, tanks, and valves that you can do with sheet metal and a welding tool, or if they blew up the control center with the computers and the specialized hardware. Or maybe some of the specialized pumps and valves. Those are expensive, and so nobody has large quantities lying around.

When the Russians hit the Ukrainian power grid, the Ukrainians can get replacement parts from all over Europe and the rest of the world. But Russia has the problem that those parts are high up on the embargo lists, so they have to get either Chinese parts (which may need modifications on them or the controlling software), or smuggle the original items.
