Also you can run x86-64 and arm64 VMs side by side with UTM on the M1’s. That’s what I am doing. Although I don’t need to use the x86-64 one these days as Debian/arm64 is fine for my needs.

Just a heads up with this. If you want one, make sure you get an off the shelf config if you can. The turnaround times for replacements and repair is likely to be bad on non stock configurations.

This pushed me to the 14” MBP with 16GB and 1TB. You can literally get it swapped out same day at apple stores if anything goes wonky.

No please do. You’re on the mark there. I was waiting for someone to make this point.

The weirdness comes from the social disparity and disconnectedness from peers their own age due to different social attitudes from parents.

The generalisation comes from the observation that older parents tend to lead to less progressive attitudes.

Great hobby. Combines many disciplines from carpentry, electronics, engineering and even civil engineering to some degree.

Yeah felt a little dirty writing that.

Indeed it’s about honesty in the face of death. The speaker speaks both of the good and the bad things.

Obituaries tend not to.

If this was Spotify vs Google I’d take Spotify.

If this was anything vs Apple I’d take Apple.

That’s the ranking of trust I have as far as customer support goes. It’ll be a crap fest when match.com or some other atomic level shyster markets their way into sounding more reputable than they are.

This. I had kids in my early 20s. It’s great because I still have a connection with them even though two are adults.

Kids from much older parents (40+) are also almost completely weird.

Having screwed this up in my 30s and spent the first half of my 40s doing a desperate low budget TV montage, I agree with this entirely. Some things you can't undo and I regret that. Learn from my mistake :)

I'm buying a cake tomorrow to celebrate.

I think Orson Scott Card, despite being a complete loon, raised an interesting concept in the book Speaker For The Dead. Obituaries should be spoken honestly to all. Not speaking ill of the dead is morally wrong.

Yes and no. Look at some of the loop optimisations possible on ARM compared to x86-64. I've had x86-64 run 8 instructions that ARM does in 1 instruction.

Spend some time looking at optimised compiler output on godbolt on both architectures. ARM has some really nice tricks up its sleeves.

I’ve been using ARM since about 1992 though so I may be biased.

I know. I still bought one.

Having just paid for Lightroom for a year this one really annoys the shit out of me.

Usually a mass exodus to a similar service with the same guarantees resulting in months of capacity problems as they try and scale out from customer influx.

There are no winners.

I usually find something that I use that already exists that pisses me off and make my own version that doesn't piss me off.

I've done this with a couple of things which have worked out usable over time and are part of my daily workflow. Most recent is a simplified browser-based replacement for GnuCash which is based on Sqlite and Go. I will publish it on github when I am happy with it.

No. Intel worked out it needs to open its production capacity to other vendors. They will end up another ARM fab with a legacy x86-64 business strapped on the side. That's probably not a bad place to be really. I think x86-64 will fizzle out in about a decade.

They sound like they're running the organisation like a dating site.

More reasons to look elsewhere.

To be fair half of the people I know can't even remember their email address or password for more than about an hour after creating it so that's exactly what they do regularly.

My sister in law is on her 11th email address in the last 3 years.

I have had my domain and email address for 25 years...

Sounds about right. Here there will be a staff security training symposium that runs everyone through a training course bought in from the lowest bidder that is tangentially related to the issue followed by a self-congratulatory management meeting and that will be the whole issue resolved to satisfaction.

That’s some good longevity there. Hope this one lasts as long

Yep UK here. Normal here :)

You can add users with console access from the IAM API if you have enough reach.

Yep. All these standards are tick boxing for liability. Nothing more.

They are not effective security controls and never will be and should never be a measure of that.

This is prime bad PR. This is going to be an absolute shit show.

700 watts so being NVidia it'll blow up in 6 months and you'll need to wait in a queue for 6 months to RMA it because all the miners had bought up the entire supply chain.

Well you can't see much of it from the front so I'm not sure what the point is of doing that. I bought it because it's the only 27" 5k panel you can actually get that has any realistic chance of vendor support anywhere in the UK and will charge my laptop.

User connects a premium low market share monitor not designed for gaming or for a PC really, despite some software supplied to the vendor, to a gaming PC and then complains about how difficult it is even though it eventually all works anyway.

I don't get these articles or why you'd even buy one of these monitors for this case, even though I own one. I'd grab a random 144Hz 4k jobby instead. But I'm not a fan of punching myself in the balls over and over again for the hell of it.

So far with this monitor I've read pages of whining from people who shouldn't have bought it or didn't buy it. Everyone who should have bought it and did buy it seems quite happy. I know I am!

Simple comparison. The ones I've been in, including the bad ones, actually had more than adequate fire suppression systems, proper electrical cut outs, fire monitoring systems and certificates proving that they had been audited and tested.

This OVH DC was designed to a cost rather than a safety specification and the risk did not pay off.

Even the bad ones had proper fire suppression systems and electrical cut outs.
