This post is pointless. Tells us how it went, show performance numbers, show benefits, resource usage, ease of use, etc.
If not buy insurance, the customers will have to pick up the tab. Vendors sell the product/service and are completely responsible for any losses.

ahh, but this post just proved that it CAN be worst.

to capture the cloud market, you also have to capture the mindshare at the desktop market. Do you think a new Linux distro comes out and people just install it on their servers? They try it out on the desktop first to see if they like it. It's why Fedora exists to get people into RHEL.

Software, such as AMD Vivado, tends to support Ubuntu more than Debian by testing against Ubuntu only. Nvidia's Jetson stack supports Ubuntu.

personal chauffeur to work and back home for $7 everyday? Not a bad deal. Google says insurance is $180/month(higher end) or $6/day. Add gas, registration, maintenance and this is a good bargain.
your linux distro is built on perl and python

$699 is an incredible price

there are products where you can re-melt and create filament for 3d printers or push it into a mold. Can probably build your own for $500 + a $500 3d printer.
1 million per piece. this is only for customers where price is not an issue.
I'm willing to bet most of that delay is shipping and most will wait a few days to save $100.
I hope these people form a group to develop software that directly competes with Microsoft or even make it free now that you have extra time. It'll keep your skills up and good for the resume.
But with the job market the way it is, they could re-hire at a lower compensation?
Including people they want to keep? What if all the people they wanted to keep accepted while those they didn't want to keep stayed? Certainly makes no sense.
This is slander and I hope you get sued.
Just compile for your specific hardware sort of like what Gentoo does. I don't want you continuously running a model - sort of defeats the purpose of performance gains.

Singapore does that called FirstDate. Korean incentives marriage with money and grants. But if I were you looking to date, I'd move to Asia.

Here's their biggest competitor: 3d print a stand, place iphone or ipad on it - greater functionality plus it's mobile! You're welcome.

always on recording means you are the product and they can train off of you and be even more embedded in your life.

Yes they are. If opensource product A does not have better features than competing opensource product B, uses move to the better product A and pretty soon, almost nobody will use product B. Take BSD vs Linux for example. We get "we've migrated to BSD" or "we've migrated to Linux" posts all the time and arguments for one or the other. Is there a winner and loser? Yes. Larger communities, more developers, more corporate sponsors, more contributions, etc. Certainly looks like competition to me.

"The newspaper must be widely distributed in the area where the job is located." Which of these mega-crops are located in a small town?
I'm pretty happy with highlight text and copy to clipboard. Yes, it is part of clicking.
How many people would you allow them to kill?
