Yes, it's the immigrants that are afraid of using public transportation because of the natives. That’s exactly what is happening.

Well, if they are living in such fear, they know what they can do.

Thanks, EU! Always on the right side of history.

Re:Intel Patents 'Software Defined Supercore' on Monday September 01, 2025 @02:19PM (#45095216)
Okay? This is not relevant. What matters here is that they have developed this technology. “Patents” in the title of the article is a way of saying that they have developed the technology.

The way I understand your comment, it implies that a) users of public transportation should be invested in it, whilst it’s more likely that they use it because they have no alternative, and that b) civic and national pride results in higher demand for public transportation. I don’t think those are universal truths.

It will be funny when one of those reports says that certain steps will be taken in the future to make sure the same incident doesn't occur again, nobody reads the report so nobody notices, and then when the same incident occurs again one of the clients sues.
Also an unrealistic one. A lot of hard work is necessary for that. Most people don’t want or can’t do that work.
>I would never move to a country I don't respect, let alone stay to drain resources and give nothing back.

Hey, good for you. But there are many societies where making a living without working is something to be proud of. I know because I live in one.

Or the guy working for that twitter profile had no idea what curl is and thought it was third-party software. Of course that wouldn't work that well for the author of curl who to put it mildly loves attention.
Ah, the Europeans woke up.
>Why should I pay for someone's healthcare when I live healthy and all I see that others are smoking?

In the EU (I have no idea about America) tobacco is heavily (and I mean heavily in some countries) taxed because of this.

How do you fix an oxidation issue with firmware.
As far as I can tell that’s not what happened. What happened is that some motherboard manufacturers gave the chip too much power, more than intel recommended, and fried it.
I find this comment surprising. They have always had better single-core performance than AMD at the same price tag.
Do you have any info about this? I got mine RMA’d and it works fine.
Have they tried not asking for bomb recipes or hacking tips? I've found that to be very effective at not getting bomb recipes or hacking tips.

I assume those papers are integral for your business. A $20k/year business expense is not really ridiculous. You think it is ridiculous because you can pirate it and get it for free. They are bytes and bytes are worthless or something.
Which is not what I said. Buying a new car is an upfront cost that not everybody can afford to pay.
You forget the citizens who can't afford to change their cars. Of course a dictatorship can just say "too fucking bad".

What kind of camera is using the engineer that doesn't have autofocus and generates 378x283 photos?
APIs were deprecated after Cambridge Analytica.
But people benefit from piracy, so I doubt people will support Apple here. Media companies on the other hand…
We have many tools in this life that can maim and kill people and we keep them anyway because they are very useful for other purposes. It’s best to exercise some personal responsibility, including not allowing a 16 year old child unattended access to the internet.
This sucks but the only solution is to make companies censor the models, which is a solution we all hate, so there’s that.
The issue here is that nowhere is the wellbeing of the low income natives considered.
Who is going to spend a dime in lobbying for or against the EU’s AI Act? The absolutely irrelevant Mistral, which is starved for money and would rather stay on the good side of the European commissioners and oligarchs?

It’s Semanal, not Seminal. Seminal amusingly translates to “related to semen”. Even more amusing when Paquete can also mean “crotch”.
