also leaving out that real competitive gaming at that time was probably in Korea and involved Starcraft and others

Ugh. People already trying to find ways to gate keep space by raising the financial barrier to entry before we've even been able to capitalize on cheap space flights. I'm sure SpaceX and others will be against this until suddenly, they're not, when they realize they're one of the few that can even afford to pay it.

Like when Amazon finally had warehouses in all fifty states and suddenly quit campaigning against online sales tax.

when you see the list of major investors in Cursor that will never break even if it stays independent, and compare it to the investors in SpaceX, it all makes sense.

if I remember correctly it involves prepaid debit cards that involved no ID correlation, then you bought sims in person using said debit card which you activated online with any made up address because the prepaid debit cards had no mailing address, so it accepted anything. or you "registered" the prepaid sim online with whatever fake mailing address you wanted.

are you running an NVLink? I have the same setup but no NVLink and it feels like it's best just splitting the 3090s to run separate models concurrently. But I also have no idea what I'm doing.

as a pilot - it's a reminder that if the pros can make a mistake then I absolutely can and I better not take anything for granted when I fly.

In the US it gets fought hard because Wall St uses it to dodge state income taxes. Everyone thinks it's drug dealer related for us, but it's actually Finance bros driving into NYC from out of state (NJ or CT) but trying to hide it.

that's actually not true at all. today's homes flash up in a matter of minutes, where as older homes can take nearly a half hour. today's homes are designed to minimize the chance of danger, but in situations like a fire, once they happen they are more dangerous today than they were in the past.

I thought NVLINK didn't matter anymore because of the latest PCI-E speeds. Am I wrong there?

probably means - more expensive than any of us would spend on a "toy", but far cheaper than what an expert might on an industry standard version of this.

they're also on the cusp of throwing it all away, again.

> Things like pilots on flights with autopilot;

Funny, I was going to mention exactly that. I'm a private pilot with a modern autopilot and flying is exhausting. Partly because the piston engine is rattling your brain the entire time but also because you're on high alert the entire time. You're always making sure the autopilot is keeping the plane on the blue (or green) line and is being predictable. And my smartwatch shows my heart rate is usually more elevated on autopilot than not.

That wouldn't be punishment to Hegseth, he seems pretty clear that he's more supportive of his Protestants than his Catholics.
