It's always good to not slack when compiling.

Best Buy is actually one of the worst and slowest websites from any large retailer. I cannot believe how bad it is. It's like they set out to make it pretty and accidentally stepped in molasses.

Yep. Gaikai.

Canonical. at least they used to, although not a fan of the recent (last ten years) Canonical.

Saber rattling and nuclear threats always benefits someone.. who?

Phoronix is blogspam?!

The thing that prevents a TV mfg from bricking your device is that they'd be instantly (and successfully) sued. In fact, there have already been many such class actions, ie with printer inks.

The downside is that it's sometimes easier and cheaper to just pay off the class and keep doing it.

They didn't just outperform "normal" congress critters.. they also outperformed nearly every hedge fund on the planet. But they (meaning, of course, just one person and their spouse) are obviously geniuses.

you mean... like Linux? or gcc?

There are a lot of smart TV's (name-brand ones!) that will try to connect to any open wifi. Monetizing from analytics and telemetry are literally priced into the cost of the gadget. A lot of smart TV's will even ship with their cameras turned on. And Hyundai/Kia and Subaru literally disabled certain in-car features for people in Massachusetts after the repair bill passed (https://www.wired.com/story/right-to-repair-cars-hackers/)

Given that, I hardly think that 'decoy sims' are much of a stretch.

> Tons of words have been written about the Trump Administrations war on Science in Universities.

... followed by lots more words that don't support this premise.

You can always move somewhere else. It's a big country with different state laws for every type of preference.

.. and why it's even a problem.

If that's what you want, then just hold. The beauty of capitalism is that nobody's forcing you to buy or sell.

Be a Warren Buffet and buy for keeps, and obviously you can do very well for yourself if you choose wisely.

Too bad Userify is too expensive for a lot of VPS-style projects (free for less than five instances, but we blow through that pretty fast most of the time)

> Is “don’t buy stuff with TSMC chips” really a valid option we have?

Not sure that TSMC would want to do that either! We're probably their biggest market, even allowing for China.

> Isn’t that basically “stop buying high technology” to a large degree?

I think you're right, to an extent, at leastt in the near term.

However, we do have (and especially used to have) various fabbing here in the States, from Samsung to Intel. Especially the latter has been neglected, but these changes would probably accelerate on-shoring and perhaps bring some of it back here.

Don't forget that TSMC is in a country that is probably going to go through some significant instability in the next few years. From a business continuity perspective, we'd need to consider availability and supply chain management with the strong possibility of a major vendor being located in the middle of a hot warzone.

Actually, Heat was the movie that inspired heavily armed bank robbers to rob the Bank of America in LA

(The movie inspired reality, not the other way around.)

But your point still stands, because it goes both ways.

Amazon didn't raise money from credulous investors. Alphabet's Waymo was also having humans take over for some of the driving as well.

And everyone knows that ChatGPT Pro is exclusively powered by capuchin monkeys.

Easy to criticize, hard to actually build something.

Show HN!

If only it wasn't Java.. but it looks very cool anyway.

The contrast ratio of an old CRT (and amber and green were considered more comfortable than white-on-black) is radically different from a modern LCD/IPS/OLED screen. It's so different that there's no comparison. Dark mode might be ok for more people if there is some brightness to the background instead of being completely black, but then you lose most of the benefits of OLED.

The patent on the manufacturing process, not the peptide itself.

It actually appears that Ukraine blew up Nordstream.

Check out local weight-loss and hormone clinics, which often have connections to reliable compounding pharmacies.

We agree on the cause, but not the solution described in your last paragraph.

If it was truly a free market, the federal government wouldn't be involved at all and I could buy insurance from any company in any state. It's because of the government's involvement that I can't buy insurance of my choice and preferred pricing from any insurer in any state.

The problem is that it's literally subjectively the best speed limit, at least from the standpoint of that young man outside of Billings.

As you'd find if you drove a motorcycle fast enough in the rain, a motorcycle with a fairing and windshield will sweep the rain (or dust) over and past you and you only get wet when you stop at a light. Perhaps that's the case here as well.

Thanks I will!
