  • Health minister says Canada can’t rely on U.S. health institutions anymore

    Jump

  • I didn't think Canada did "rely" on U.S institutions. They might work in partnership with them at times, but not "rely".

  • Nvidia reportedly backs away from its effort to make its own public cloud, team reorg eases friction with customers — chipmaker shifts unit's focus to internal R&D

  • chipmaker shifts unit's focus to internal R&D

    They took all the network engineers and put them on silicon design.

    No...they decided to do the cloud services development in private.

  • Paedophile teacher who had sex with two boys is struck off

    Jump

  • It would, but that's a very broad term. I expect they were trying to be specific, but only succeeded in being forgiving in the headline.

  • They'd struggle to pardon someone in the UK.

  • Mark Zuckerberg gifted noise-canceling headphones to his Palo Alto neighbors because of the non-stop construction around his 11 homes

    Jump

  • And the people he's buying headphones for, he probably wants to move out so he can buy their properties. I suspect their might be a tad of malicious gift giving here.

    Let's buy those shit

    Jump

  • No. Don't buy them. The reason those are grounded is because maintenance is too expensive even for the country of manufacture. No other country will be any better off.

    F35 is a money pit.

  • DPRK displays apparent progress in construction of nuclear-powered submarine

    Jump

  • Ok, but how do you cook a sausage that big?

  • Christmas

  • Reminder: the claim that Bob Crachits pay, when adjusted for inflation, is twice the American minimum wage gets economists so wound up that they try to argue that he was comparitively paid well despite not being able to feed his family at Christmas.

  • Microsoft wants to replace its entire C and C++ codebase, perhaps by 2030

    Jump

  • This is what you get when AI fanaticism combines with Rust fanaticism.

    1 million lines a month is 2-ish line per second. That "engineer" is just someone to blame when things don't work. They aren't going to be contributing anything.

  • Bob Vylan rapper will not be prosecuted over 'death to the IDF' chant

    Jump

  • Glastonbury is our (bi?)annual Woodstock-like music festival.

  • Bob Vylan rapper will not be prosecuted over 'death to the IDF' chant

    Jump

  • Maybe, but I think the intent was quite clear here. Political statement of contempt towards the IDF. There was no sarcasm or irony. It wasn't part of a song. He just led the crowd in a chant.

  • Reginald D Hunter: Judge quashes antisemitism case brought by Campaign Against Antisemitism

    Jump

  • The problem is that the hate speech laws are, like in this case, open to abuse. Somebody can have their career damaged whilst they fight an abusive case for over a year just because somebody feels offended.

    They shouldn't be on the books. They need repealing, or at the very least made much more specific.

    ‘We’ve seen it decimate areas’: Somerset town’s traders oppose parking charges

    Jump

  • It's a subsidy to the shops and businesses in a town. Businesses that pay taxes back to the council. A thriving town provides more funds than a dead one.

    In a rural area there isn't public transport to get people to the centre of towns to buy things (and there never will be because the population is not dense enough to be practical). It's personal transport, or people order online and the town dies.

    In an urban area the equation is different.

  • Vince Gilligan Tells Us He Has A Four-Season Plan for Pluribus

    Jump

  • It's not a bad show. It's got a good premise and it's produced well, but its pacing is divisive. I personally found the pace ok when I could binge a few episodes back to back (I started a few week late), but now I'm watching week-to-week I'm finding the pace too slow.

  • Vince Gilligan Tells Us He Has A Four-Season Plan for Pluribus

    Jump

  • It might be most watched on Apple TV but there's an element of subscription numbers in that metric. If you look at RT audience ratings it seems to have landed on the second tier of high profile Apple shows.

    • Pluribus 68%
    • Severance 80%
    • Silo 67%
    • For All Mankind 82%
    • Slow Horses 87%
    • Dark Matter 80%

  • Vince Gilligan Tells Us He Has A Four-Season Plan for Pluribus

    Jump

  • I doubt it'll make it.

    Having just one forward step in the plot per episode will just about get people through a season. When the season is over I think a lot of people won't return for S2.

  • Jeffrey Epstein wrote in apparent suicide note to Larry Nassar that Donald Trump ‘shares our love of young, nubile girls’

    Jump

  • Suicide note is surprising as that suggest suicide.

  • I called it. Last week I said this :

    I'm hoping for the old “it looks black until you select the text in the PDF” snafu.
