Hear me out…

How do we know it wasn’t a peaceful person leaving a hand written note begging for no more datacentres, when their nemesis, Dr Datacentre, drove past and started shooting at him?

When they renamed 23c to 23ai I cringed so hard. You don’t install the DB and get an AI, you get an empty DB that has vectors.

And enabling employees to use AI more than the free tier is really expensive too.

The cost is upfront for training the LLM, then they have to sell the end product to us (to recuperate costs, start training the next 500B model, etc.), so giving their employees access to a higher tier of LLM is relatively minimal cost, inference isn’t exactly cheap, but I think they could afford to give their employees access to higher models.

But, this is Oracle I guess.

This sentence reads like Microsoft is the inventor of Javascript:

Electron apps are ruining the Windows 11 experience, and even the JavaScript creator has warned against ‘rushed web UX over native,’

So there’s 3 things, either they meant Typescript, they are very wrong or they’re quoting Brendan Eich and not attributing it to him.

FreeIPA (IdM on RHEL clones) is similar in some functionality (you join the domain, you allow certain users/groups can run certain commands [like controlling sudo’ers], etc.) and it’s also a CA).

For configuration management I lean towards Ansible (Puppet, Salt, Chef I think all use a Ruby syntax, Ansible is YAML), and for deployment well Terraform, Kickstart and cloud-init - without knowing your environment it’s difficult to be more precise. There’s also Pyinfra which I’ve been meaning to give a whirl but not had a chance.

You’ve also got Keycloak if you need OIDC or SAML functionality (for SSO).

I’m in the UK, we have different siren sounds than the US - and I still do this when I hear a siren on a song by a US band or artist.

“You’re absolutely right!”

“If you want, I can…”

Any images being presented/created/passed then questioned and the same image (use a checksum I guess) is returned.

I’ve read that the double dash (emdash?) is a bit of a giveaway as although correctly used, it’s not very prevalent in current English (although, I do remember Microsoft Outlook used to convert hyphens to that as well). And I think double-space after a full-stop/period?

I heard it was in reference to the Puerto Rican governments initial death toll caused by Hurricane Maria (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Maria_death_toll_controversy), which was…a very low number.

Not sure I follow. Which app?

OMG, this is the internet don’t be posting self-flaws. Jeez. ^kthxlvubai

Linux has always had a hard line disposition about keeping Kernel-space and User-space separate. SSHD (and systemd) are User-space, but are being configured on the kernel’s boot line (in GRUB, which is also User-space).

I don’t like to use the term rage-bait, but this post is suggesting that User-space components should not be configured by the Kernel-space (which is not happening here, it’s just the kernel boot line parameters, you could, pass the parameter to start a different init system other than systemd).

I don’t understand. The US already has the organisation(s) and people in-place to fund $2bn into 17 countries rather than direct the UN to do it through OCHA. So, why bother?

The balls on the man who tackles the shooter. Give him every medal.

Until recently, I’ve had no real preference as mostly using RHEL clones at work. Now using Ubuntu…and snap has been causing issues.

Closed beta :-\

Where’s the photo of him being propped up to face the camera with a stick?

It’s not fear I don’t think. It’s more like the Chinese Gov is opaque to us and it’s people.

Just to add that Hadrian’s Firewall used to exist/does exist, I think. It was located in BT’s main POP in Newcastle.

I think the issue there is the k-ID software asks you to do things like open your mouth, then close your mouth - so you’d need to find stock photos of the same person doing stuff like that. Which, now that I think about it, I imagine there will be an influx of selfies of people with closed and open mouths available on google images very soon.

I’m out of the loop I guess. What’s happening?
