I noticed an increase in the variety of onscreen talent and more animatics, but I haven’t noticed a decrease in the production value

I’m a big fan of the b1m.

Sounds like the exact reason that official debian backports came into existence.

Because Canada considers DUIs a felony-level offence, regardless of how the home jurisdiction considers it.
There are places in the states where it’s a misdemeanor and has a lower bar for conviction than the Canadian provinces have, but to the border entry requirements, a DUI is a DUI.
That said, there are ways to become readmissible, but it’s a huge pain in the ass.

BenJ had coauthor credit on it.

QC has stronger protections than neighboring ON does, actually. If the employee has more than 2 years of service they simply cannot be dismissed without just cause. Even under 2 years there are a bunch of protections, but at 2+ it gets harder.

100%. They’ve announced the plans for SpaceX to have an IPO, this will basically eliminate all of his losses even if they just shut down xAI immediately following acquisition (which they won’t do just yet, because people are still bag holding AI investments.)
This guy might be a dumb fuck, but he’s the smartest dumb fuck in the billionaire game.

Edit: Some of his capital investors might have told him that they want out of xAI because they see where the wind is blowing. This gets them out with profit if they pull it off fast enough.
This (SpaceX IPO) is going to be a massive rug pull, for the 2nd round of public traders and I bet that he’s got structure in place to ensure that even after selling billions of dollars of shares he still holds 51% or some shit, or that his annual compensation is $0+1% of the company.
10 years ago I would have bought into a SpaceX IPO. Not today.

He was attached to Ubi’s office Montreal, QC, Canada.
If there isn’t anything more than what is mentioned in the article, it’s highly that the CDPDJ would rule against Ubi if the dismissal is challenged; this would likely be protected as Freedom of Expression, as nothing negative was said about Ubi besides the implication that Ubi thought that their employees wouldn’t see their motives.

Amazed that I didn’t see any references to OpenDesk. Specifically built on open-source to escape foreign government and/or corpo malfeasance.

I dunno. I still don’t use Wayland, but I have no problem with people developing for it.

There was no mention of child abduction in the comment I was replying to. I was trying to underscore the point that including demonstrably false information in an opinion piece weakens the piece as a whole.

Maybe she did. Doesn’t change the fact that using misattributed quotes tends to diminish the perception of the preceding opinion in the eyes of readers.

Except that statement wasn’t said by royalty, it’s a misattributed mistranslation of a snippet from Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Confessions.
It was written 9 years before Marie Antoinette became queen and while she was still a child and had not yet traveled to France.
This is a classic case of the victors writing history. This quote has been used countless times to try to illustrate that the royalty was out of touch (which I’m neither arguing for nor against here,) however there’s no evidence it was ever spoken by the Queen - indeed it wasn’t attributed to her at all for many years after her death.

The IoT edition of Windows 11 runs in 4GB ram and performs ok. I don’t recommend more ram, I recommend either Linux or LTSC IoT.

I’m more concerned about ‘AI’ telling people incorrect information - and that information being further indexed and presented as fact elsewhere.

It’s a compounding problem

I think he’s not concerned about much besides himself.

Sure, but one is rude to people that deliver bad work to him, the other is rude to people that don’t accept his bad work from him.

Funny how we’ve forgotten already the rage and backlash from users when it was revealed you could never completely disable telemetry in windows 10.
Now the general attitude is ‘well, it’s not as bad as 11.’
For the better part of a decade I used windows only for gaming, and now I’ve dropped it for that too.
I’m not sure why some people still refuse to consider using an alternative to windows these days.

Vulnerable? Do you have examples? I’m not aware of any.

Or maybe they’re developers that are tired of the wheel being reimplemented?
Eg.
