The world-first part must be the wind-power thing.

We’ve had small offshore data centers for years, passively cooled but powered by nuclear energy.

(And if you’re still not getting the joke, let’s discuss how a nuke sub would cool its massive computing power. Big boats are like floating data centers; submarines even more advanced. )

Quoth the raven, “404”.

That’s the nokia hardware they installed win mobile on?

I was looking forward to a good nokia candybar phone, but gave up when they were bought and the hardware went under a win OS.

They tried; it must’ve been 4 times. But unless it’s a sure thing, they’ll give up.

I worry they don’t know how to compete on a level ground, slowly building trust and business on success after success.

Parking lots need to be the 6 levels underneath a soccer field anyway.

Life will adapt

It’s funny that we’ve had SLSA4-compliant package managers for 25 years, but we leave juniors un-mentored and this is what they build as they self-teach … over and over and over.

Ohhh, subtle dig. Masterful.

Research suggests we are subconsciously drawn to the body odours of people who have different Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) genes than our own—a biological trick to ensure healthy, genetically diverse offspring. – google et al

In short, there is a biological basis for interest in those sweaty pits, at the strategic level of survival.

“*******” is a weird password. Aren’t there supposed to be letters and numbers ?

Linux’s license not count as about Linux?

Philosophically, no.

In set theory, also no.

Legally, still no.

Does it contain similar letters? Like Laughter and Slaughter do, yes.

they will need to be constantly replaced.

This is the funniest part. Can you imagine completely rebuilding the average datacenter every half-decade?

source the materials out there

That’s 5 words and trillions of dollars worth of start-up cost.

If we’re so dead-set on flying servers out to LEO so they can be micro-meteor target practice, maybe we could leverage the no-water, solar powered setup we’d have to do there to get better DCs on earth here, first. We’d have gravity and thus convection on our side as we look at cooling, not to mention the vastly better proximity to supply chains during the proof-of-concept phase.

Faxing, taxing, relaxing. Why the exxxxxtreme x?

Point: potential security risks identified

Counterpoint: cheaper

You see how these things don’t really intersect, right?

This is gonna be the way. PR too, America’s second-least-favourite protectorate after Samoa (you forgot it existed, didn’t ya?). PR can shore up a bunch with solar power – and whatever one does for things like storm damage mitigation, the other can also.

And let’s do haiti next, although that’ll need to be a whole new secure endeavour out of like an embassy basement or something that can’t be stolen or blown up.

Probably violates sanctions. With your DHS being super racist and paranoid, best not upset them and get sent to the thunder dome.

Man. I hope they don’t suck like in win 10/11. They’re kinda crunchy in windows.

Still hosting gitlab.

The CI on forgejo is, unfortunately, nowhere near as good.

Given how long gitlab has been struggling to fix basic bugs and instead creeping into features - hello-oo bloated and slow vscode-like web editor and non-ephemeral runner management - I’m not sure they have any staff left to let go. But it’s nice they found an excuse to shed their remaining talent and avoid complete stock devaluation.

The planning is happening openly, including a voluntary separation window.

“We don’t understand how the Dead Sea Effect works, and we want to super-size the damage.”. Okay, Bill.

No. Things are not as I naively wished. Things never are.

But they can be their own kind of awesome, and that’s okay.
