Should(or When) said 'bubble' 'pop', AI isn't going away or expected to lose relevance.

If you were around about the time of the Dot-Com bubble, you can better make sense of the saying.

The web never stopped being useful, it was the ridiculous and speculative valuations of companies, and outlandish claims that couldn't sustain themselves and eventually 'popped'.

Is it just a minified localization(l10n) function maybe?

Friendly FYI: Some M.2 slots offer up to 4 PCIe lanes.

Though, it looks like on the lite version mentioned here, there is but one PCIe lave available on the slot.

Edit: Adding the size is likely the reason and full regular PCIe is not there. The PCIe card would likely be as big as the board it self. :)

> My favorite interview question, because we've interviewed quite a few of these folks, is something to the effect of 'How fat is Kim Jong Un?' They terminate the call instantly

I'm sure there were a lot of false positives with that question.

If I was not reading HN and a few other sources I would likely hang up the phone too.

Thinking that it couldn't be a real job,... some phishing scam or hoax, asking ridiculous questions like that.

Depending on the job, it is quite likely the real talent would not be able to take the interview seriously after hearing suck a question.

Seriously weird times...

See Varnish Cache others... Or use a third party CDN that offers feature.

Lots of ways to configure them with route based behavior-in/validation.

Maemo really was impressive, and to think how far it could be with more than a decade development and refinements had Nokia managed keep that team on it.

Sailfish OS still seems to be going, and latest and installable on Sony Xperia 10 V. Though that is based on Meego which was what replaced Maemo and ended up on the Nokia N9 and was no longer Debian based IIRC.

Tizen OS was the other offshoot of Meego and Samsung was working with it, but they appear be abandoning it.

I never had the chance to pick up a compatible device try them out.

When corporate 'profit-is-the-product' becomes the business, I tend to agree.

But mass production is the only feasible way to feed large cites.

Just work on make sure it's being done reasonably.

It's a weird problem.

It seems to me, it would REQUIRE Megacorps datasets to store the information you don't want them to store in order for them to confirm to such a request.

Take off, climb and circles before landng time use considerably more fuel than that of cruising time, so that needs to be considered. Also, as short haul fights generally don't climb as high, they lose the benefits of high altitude cruising.

Reminds me of the early dialup to DSL communication over standard telephone lines evolution.

- ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II Bluetooth ?

It's pretty close to full size, but very slim and light weight.

Agree... That's what really rubs me the wrong way about it.

I also feel like, 'opt in' probably opens a user up to even more 'creepy stuff' than is already happening.

Not specifically about women, but...

I have met several women who regularly query ChatGPT for relationship advice.

Accepting the response as authoritative.

Seriously though, yes... Support The Unions! Stay strong!

"For most people here, workplace is 15 minutes walk/public transit away,..."

Curiously, how many cars need charging(at night even) in this area? Maybe I missed the intent behind your comment.

But it doesn't sound like there is much daily driving.

Perhaps "...hands wet on the wheel..." like in the Golden Earring song often? )))

There is no reason they cannot be installed beside each other.

GDM, etc have made this easy for years. On installation 'simpler' distros let you choose as many desktop environments as you wanted from the install. (Gnome/KDE/XFCE/Flux/...)

And you still had /home/[user] common between desktop environments by default.

If someone has been using Linux since 1996 and is surprised by this "rebase"...

Benefit of doubt, maybe a poorly chosen analogy?

Edit: also, with no malice. that justification sounds like rebuilding the wheel. Package management system == Wheel ...
