Why wouldn't it be? I don't understand the point of this article. It's not like some other direct P2P communication medium is going to come along and upend it. It doesn't really make sense to run fiber inside your home. You don't need that kind of bandwidth for such a small number of devices and it would be prohibitively expensive since you need a specialized, highly trained technician to run it - unlike Ethernet, where any sufficiently motivated person can do so. I've heard that the people that run fiber for ISPs make something like $200/hr or so.

Twitch embeds ads directly into the stream now. They're next to impossible to block now, though I've heard some people say it's still possible.

Just gonna put this here in case you want to read about how similar third party candidates in a two party system negatively impact the outcomes of such candidates.

This type of mentality is how Trump gets re-elected. And it's looking more and more like it will be the end of democracy in the US if that happens.

Human capital is the most expensive direct cost of business. Reducing it as much as possible is the goal of any business.

Why is the IDF still relying on bombing and artillery strike to stop Hamas if it's proven it causes such high civilian casualties?

You're funded and supplied by the largest military industrial complex in the world and its allies and you're telling me you can't get troops on the ground to rescue hostages?

It almost seems intentional at this point and if they keep this up, between them blowing the shit out of Gaza and Hamas executing/torturing hostages, there won't be anyone left to rescue.

There are significant differences between statistical models and AI.

I work for an analytics department at a fortune 100 company. We have a very clear delineation between what constitutes a model and what constitutes an AI.

I remember when Chrome released and it was a hot mess performance wise. I haven't used it since and it doesn't seem like I'm missing anything.

If this is true the crowd on here that often says Firefox is really owned by Google because Google pays Mozilla to have their search engine be the default search engine on Firefox really need to look at their claim and rethink their understanding of how Mozilla and Google interact.

When fallout 4 was in development, Bethesda had to crunch and have non-developers who had little to no experience in the engine (like writers) work in the creation kit to flesh out the rest of the game. This led to many quests being implemented entirely separate from each other with little to no input from other teams or staff members and is a major reason why fallout 4 base game feels so disjointed once you actually start exploring it.

It wouldn't surprise me if they had to do the same thing with starfield.

Debian testing is other distros stable release.

If you're running Debian stable, your hardware was probably too new for the kernel. Unless they changed their development paradigm when I last ran it, stable is always 2-3 years behind mainline Linux software aside from security patches. It's one of the key reasons why it's so stable.
