GP is talking out of his ass - he’s probably not up to speed on meth economics like you and me.

My understanding is that it’s got a bespoke 20 core Nvidia Vera CPU - unified RTX Vera Rubin Spark chip. Seems like Nvidia trying to copy Apple M-series chip

Do any of the legit scene groups sign their binaries? How do you know a release isn’t tainted?

I tend to agree, but the FMC on Boeing aircraft sure leave something to be desired.. I do not find the menu/tab system very ergonomic (and the non-QWERTY key layout)

Love the transparency - someone should make you VP of ..uhm dev rel or something! I was being quite hyperbolic in my original comment, however, I _do_ think you are doing the right thing, and you are definitely not the bad guy. Having said

I have 2 or 3 yubikeys associated with my account. I think apple does a decent job at communicating the importance of having recovery keys to the point where they deter those who can’t be bothered. Yubikeys are great

> C# doesn't depend on a VM these days when it is AOT compiled Maybe I’m being pedantic, but this is an oxymoron. Also the premise is incorrect. It’s not like the VM is gone. Merely baked into the code at compile time. It compiles I

> Apple’s solution affects your whole digital life I don’t know if that’s generally true. I could lose my apple account and not really give a a damn. Not that I see how such a thing would happen, save for apple burning down all their dat

How do you work on the go? I use personal hotspot quite often. Not only when on the go, but if there is unstable WiFi. It’s saved me on multiple occasions - both for live-site incidents and for random meetings.

It uses a Unix keyboard layout where the caps lock is swapped out with the ctrl key. I think it’s much more ergonomic to have the ctrl on the home row. The arrow keys are behind a fn modifier resting on the right pinky. Also accessible with

Dunno why I’m getting downvoted. Is it because you disagree with my statement? Is it because I’m off topic? Do you think I’m a shill?

> Just wait until you get a group of nerds talking about keyboards Don’t get me started on the HHKB [1] with Topre membrane keyswitches. It is simply put the best keyboard on the market. Buy this. (No, Fujitsu didn’t pay me to say this)

What about a farm worker who tills the land? Is every farmer/farm worker achieving business goals through _cooperation_? What about seasonal farm workers? I guess the farmer can set up incentive payments, but even so, are you saying th

Additional anecdata: my top of the line XPS 15 had to be repaired twice due to a "stuck" trackpad issue. It seems to me like they crammed as much compute as they could into that tiny chassis while their manufacturing tolerances re
