Many hail Net (the god of water and winning) with their balls of many sizes but only this guy performed the ritual successfully.
So... You still working on rain or have you been promoted to snow?
Wait: You're not one of those sleet people, are you?
Only one of the focus group members, a 24-year-old engineer from New York named Alvin, gave Trump a 5 out of 5, praising him for "trying to bring back manufacturing jobs" even though manufacturing growth has slowed.
So basically, only the delusional think he's doing a good job. I'd say this is like, "just my opinion, man" but no: That's literally what the focus group discovered! It's a fact.
Yeah! Let's get rid of ALL data centers! That way, there won't be any Internet at all!
You do realize that if it weren't for data centers, you wouldn't be reading this message or posting to Lemmy, right?
Your local instance might be hosted on some Raspberry Pi somewhere, but your Internet connection itself is going through data centers and relies on data centers all over the world to work.
You wouldn't even have a working cell phone without data centers.
Ugh. This is the law of unintended consequences in action.
Instead of building large, vastly more efficient data centers, companies will build smaller ones and spread them out over a geographical area that all use the same power provider (so they can save an equivalent amount of money on bulk use). Resulting in more power draw, more land use, and will require more infrastructure.
The only solution to the problem of data center power utilization is to mandate they be powered by renewables.
At this rate, Windows will never be ready for the desktop.
This is a real dick move.
It's not the only animal like this! The Iberian Ribbed Newt (Pleurodeles waltl) will push its own ribcage out of its chest (turning them into spikes) and secretes toxic venom through those bones...
The actual thing they need to do in order to compete is in-source parts manufacturing in order to take advantage of economies of scale... Like the Chinese EV manufacturers do.
Basically, toss out the Chicago school of economics thinking and go back to their roots as an all-things manufacturer. Ideally, they'd innovate as part of that by adopting new technologies like 3D printing to bring costs down and accelerate improvements.
I don't mean "3D printing for prototyping." They already do that. I mean, 3D print the final part. If it works for fucking rockets going into space, it can work for cars too. Especially electric vehicles which are much simpler to make.
If you want unautomatable, ludicrously expensive, insecure mountains of instability... Go for it👍
Proving once again that windows isn't ready for the desktop.
Why else would you crack critical Australian infrastructure? To pirate it‽
