That $10k was probably the limit for their work, not someone else’s stolen time.

Script kiddies bust their butts phishing and installing black market ransomware. This Whitney fellow is probably sitting in his office somewhere expecting people to just throw $100k (per month!) at him. ;-)

I believe it's now well into the realm of genericization.[1] Xerox lost a major lawsuit relatedly, iirc.

No one has pointed out that the AI companies are being sued for 'stealing' vast troves of copyrighted data, and the case is still in progress.

If the police departments are complicit, then does copyright stand to lose de facto as AI will only be increasingly implemented while the case slogs through the courts?

My favorite part is when you search for a local file, but it fails because it can't connect to the internet.

With AI we can expect full disinformation posts with supporting conversations.

This would be good opportunity to test out BSDs or Illumos variants, as well.

At the Toys-R-Us in Antarctica, kids really don't grow up!

"I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys-R-Us kid..."

Virt-Manager does allow you to edit the xml config file by hand from within the interface. So, yes you can use ipv6; but no, it's not a convenient point and click gui interaction.

I'd be curious to hear the specific reasoning behind it.

Is it just me? His posts always begin with an interesting technical anecdote and then veer off into boring propaganda with sullies the reputability. It's an intellectual let-down.

Qubes does allow creating a VM for just about any program or service. But, in my experience, it suffers from latency. So, while fine for web browsing, it wasn't too keen on playing videos. YMMV of course, but Adobe products are already hogs without the emu layer.

We're still finding roman coins in the UK, that should be enough physical evidence against the idea. But, I imagine salt would be useful for bartering with some of the "barbari" the soldiers encountered.

Well done! That read was unpleasantly verbose.
