A competent software developer demands a higher salary than an incompetent one. So when I apply for a software developer job, I get told I am overqualified. I don't work for peanuts like an incompetent developer.

We were latchkey kids. The key to the house door was tied around our neck using a shoelace. When the street lights came on, it meant going home. Both parents worked to afford the house and the kids' expenses.

I have old Kindles that Amazon disabled from downloading new books. They are trying to force me to buy new Kindles, but I just use the Kindle reader app for my PC. Anyone can recommend an alternative to Kindle. Please let me know.

Interesting. Can revive DOS games in DOS to Rust to make them cross-platform. I imagine most DOS games are no longer sold or supported, or IP sitting on an underwriter's file cabinet?

What is the ROI in Data Centers? Google has an advantage in making its own chips and hardware, as it is 1/3rd the cost of others. Microsoft has $0 ROI on its data centers.

Memory and Chip prices went up, and Microsoft is building Data Centers. Copilot 365 only has 3% of users using the AI features. Microsoft's biggest AI customer, OpenAI is looking to use other Data Centers. Microsoft's stock took a 10% hit and lost $400B USD. Microsoft's Data Centers have high electricity bills and thus have a 0 ROI. If Microsoft doesn't get customers for its AI Data Centers, they stand to lose more than $400B USD. Investors want to see profits, not broken promises of profits.

Sure the sub$500 PCs and laptops will struggle to run Windows fast enough to matter, they run Linux faster anyway. But the $1000 and up Mega Max hardcore PCs will run Windows just fine only problem is that they are gaming machines and corporate doesn't want to spend the money on gaming machines.

Just upgrade to better hardware or run Ubuntu.

The real spring water isn't clear, it is muddy. They have to filter it just like the drinking water. They add salt and minerals for taste.

I have been told it is better to use tap water with a filter like Zero Water or a reverse osmosis filter on the water pipes.
