A law like that would’ve been incredibly helpful back when those Brexit buses were claiming to somehow give the NHS £350M a week, most of which technically never even existed in the first place (as we got back something like 200M a week).

Having Farage, Boris, and their cronies be forced to resign (or even face prison) would’ve been a damn delight.

Ah great - SCOTUS will likely side with the e-sig companies, with absolutely no bribes involved, then e-cig companies will flood the market with colourful, flavoured products designed to entice young people (who may never have smoked otherwise) into starting on e-cigs.

I knew what these were the moment I first saw them advertised as a way to get people to quit smoking - they are, and always were a trojan horse designed to entice a new generation of nicotine addicts. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course Clarence, the most openly corrupt, would be the one to dissent against the OSHA case. Clarence can go fuck himself

It really is. It’s the same victim blaming logic you get with cyber-bullying. Simply not looking at it doesn’t change the fact that it is there in the first place.

Win11 becomes a less and less appealing switch day by day… When I can no longer hold into Win10, I think I’ll just have to jump ship to Linux.

Win10 is already quite privacy poor, but Win11 is straight up intolerable.

Well I suppose the answer I’d give is that because of how right-wing the US is compared to much of the Western world, it becomes a patient zero for whatever the far-right is cooking up - which inevitably influences far-right groups in other Western countries

Just ‘how’ many ‘quotation’ ‘marks’ do you ‘need’ to get ‘your’ ‘satire’ across.

I get that you can’t exactly just throw a /s at the end of your headline, but this has the same energy as a political comic with nouns written on literally everything.

Exactly!

Applicants are expected to dedicated hours of their time to writing their application and performing background research - both of which are becoming increasingly more tedious over time - so the least a company could bloody do is show some basic respect by paying an actual human being to come interview you!

The idea of AI automated job interviews sickens me. How little of a fuck do you have to give about applicants that you can’t even be bothered to have even a single person interview them??

The TL;DR for the article is that the headline isn’t exactly true. At this moment in time their PPU can potentially double a CPU’s performance - the 100x claim comes with the caveat of “further software optimisation”.

Tbh, I’m sceptical of the caveat. It feels like me telling someone I can only draw a stickman right now, but I could paint the Mona Lisa with some training.

Of course that could happen, but it’s not very likely to - so I’ll believe it when I see it.

Having said that they’re not wrong about CPU bottlenecks and the slowed rate of CPU performance improvements - so a doubling of performance would be huge in this current market.

That’s hardly even a story - house repairs cost a lot of money, and NASA’s equipment (by their own admission) caused the damage.

It’s only the police that get away with ruining people’s things without paying.

So essentially weapons manufacturers are now, instead of supplying directly to Russia, allowing their weapons to be sold to vendors with ties to Russian military vendors (who definitely wouldn’t ever supply Russia) and turning a blind eye to it so they can claim to be following sanctions.

What filthy traitors. Should send them to the front line just so they can see what the weapons they’re allowing Russia to obtain are being used for.

Trump’s lawyers are expected to argue that none of the memos should have been given to prosecutors on the crime-fraud exception, which allows prosecutors to see privileged communications between a defendant and a lawyer, if their legal advice was used in furtherance of a crime.

They’re expected to argue on the basis that these memos didn’t amount to using Corcoran’s legal advice.

But surely that’s a moot point, because while Trump didn’t use of any specific legal advice, he absolutely abused the privileged information obtained from Corcoran (such as the date of the inspection and the date of his return) in obstructing the return of classified documents to the whitehouse.

The memos make quite clear that Trump abused attorney-client privilege in furtherance of a crime. Plain and simple.

And I severely doubt Corcoran didn’t know what Trump’s intentions were with that information - and if not before, he certainly should’ve known afterwards when being “asked” to pluck out documents.

I legitimately have to wonder how it can be legal for Trump to be trialled by judges he put into power, and that have shown such clear and demonstrable biases in his favour - even going so far as to deliberately delay cases as far as legally possible.

As @[email protected] put it, it’s like he’s got an extra special justice system especially for him - who knew all you needed to do was appoint your own judges.

That’s why I specified the community, as in the more tech savy folks that would care about this, because I know that the wider public is surprisingly tech illiterate

I’ll be curious to see where this ends up going, as I doubt the community will take this lying down.

The few times I’ve had to go without an Ad blocker, I’ve seen just how bad the Ads have gotten - they’re almost the same as regular TV Ad breaks now! … And then YouTube Premium is just not a good deal in my eyes, £12.99 a month is an awful lot to pay just to not see Ads.

“Schools just stopped buying books from us because they didn’t want to have the appearance of supporting controversial literature”

It’s upsetting to see these words uttered in relation to a bookstore just trying to help LGBT+ access literature that better includes and represents them.

“If only the pesky government would stop intervening in the free market, we mega-corps would’ve all signed up years ago to voluntarily fix the pollution problems we’ve spent decades covering up… But because you’re telling us to, we don’t want to.” /s

Paraphrasing of course, but this is basically their defence - which is just a tad bit shoddy if you ask me. If they didn’t need this law to get their act together, then why is this law having to be made because they didn’t get their act together?

Hamas trying to lead peace talks while Israel shuts them out is nothing new.

Israel almost certainly won’t accept any peace talks, because they don’t want to coexist with Palestine - the whole “war” always was and continues to be a farcical cover for a genocide.
