First time witnessing a stroke over the internet

I built my laptop. Framework user fwiw

Growing up, we had a computer class where we learned how to use a Mac. Then they changed the OS and I’m lost using my gf’s macbook

It works in China, they have multiple orders at the same time so it costs less than a dollar to deliver

I don’t care because chatgpt writes my config until it generates a working configuration

As a beginner Ubuntu was more frustrating, I prefer one config file to hundreds of bread crumbs left all over the system.

Anyone remember putting 90-mouse.conf in xorg.conf.d to turn off mouse acceleration? Each time you went to do something it would be some change in some file on your system. No way to remember what you did when your in place upgrade fails and you need to restart fresh

Listen, I’m not trying to do crazy things. When I asked it to compile a package with AVX2 it gave me the right command. I asked it to verify and it fed the file into readelf and found the vextracti128， vpand, vpxor instructions, verifying it was compiled with AVX2

I personally use one that’s config file heavy and I like it because I have two devices so I can change something on both without issue

That’s why it’s not just called Fedora

Disagree, asked chatgpt and fixed many issues. A lot of the time the documentation is too long and esoteric

I disagree, I got more edge cases with Ubuntu and Fedora than an immutable distro. It’s always when trying to update stuff it inevitably breaks. An immutable distro just works, it can rebuild the world when updating and you never get into trouble

How about they shouldn’t be allowed to do that? You can build data centers without breaking the law. They also don’t use that much water. They have been farming almonds in arid California areas for decades and nobody cared

Like what? The economy is basically not in a recession because of a data center boom

That’s why I don’t think we should limit the AI boom, give the supply chains a chance to pay for more capacity for the future

We had this issue during the crypto boom and the manufacterers that added capacity then are glad they did.

What else could use up that RAM? How about standalone VR? We could get mainstream adoption by 2030.

The point is building factories sometimes pays off

Just remove the battery?

So your retirement fund should be looking healthy, that’s a good thing.

There are multiple chip and RAM manufacturers. They are all swamped with orders

They can, but they shouldn’t. The AI boom won’t last forever. The RAM, CPU, GPU manufacturers should get the maximum value now to increase manufacturing capacity. It will be needed later for other things.

For example, the crypto mining boom first caused shortages in the GPU market, but the following generation was a really good value. 3080s still sold out, but now it was to gamers. Without the crypto boom, the manufacturers wouldn’t have increased the capacity as much and fewer GPUs would been sold to gamers in the next generation

What? The stock market is doing great

S&P 500 up 9% YTD, 62% in the past 5 years
