They're probably located way out in the sticks too. Who wants to pack up all their stuff and sell their house and move to the rural deep South for a job that may or may not work out long-term? And if it doesn't work out, they no

For even more credit, they should leave all the extra telemetry and other crap out of the download, so it's only a megabyte or so, instead of 150MB, and let people opt-in to downloading that junk.

Where is your workplace located? Perhaps it's in a crappy place that no one wants to live in, and you should look at relocating.

What a colossal waste of money and effort. The person or people who wasted their money on this project should have known better than to erect such a thing in the deep South. From the Wikipedia article: "Some locals referred to its con

Too bad. They've had many centuries to unite their peninsula into a single country, and didn't do it, so they don't deserve any special consideration for the name "Iberia".

That's great, really, but people like you are a tiny minority. MS can afford to lose a very small number of customers, since they'll much more than make up for the loss by doing anti-user stuff like baking ads into the OS. In th

I don't see the problem here. Badgering you to subscribe to some crap helps make more profit for MS, and this is good for MS shareholders. It might make the user experience worse, but who cares about that? It's not like Windows

Yeah, that's why I think all this talk is really silly and a waste of time. Management simply does not believe in "flow" or the need for deep concentration. If you actually need to concentrate deeply to get your job done,

They specifically said it's free and legal. Do you have proof otherwise? Obviously, this stuff is merely geo-locked. There's nothing illegal about using a VPN to get around stupid geo-locking restrictions.

No one's using an Intel ARC graphics card in an enterprise setting. If they don't understand this and are not worried about power consumption, this is just yet another reason Intel is swirling the drain.

They should have simply migrated, at their own great expense, to Microsoft SQL Server. /s Anyway, this should be a good lesson for anyone thinking about using Microsoft technologies.

You shouldn't need to shut down your computer just to have low power consumption when you're not doing much. I just built a home server PC using an AMD Ryzen CPU and the entire machine consumes 24W, measured at the wall, when the

For a robotics company, their code is the "secret sauce" that makes their company valuable. It wouldn't make sense to open-source it all and let their competitors do the same thing without having had to spend so much money a

No, I'm proposing the opposite: that states try to act more like Norway/Finland by themselves, instead of hoping the federal government will do so (which isn't going to happen). And yes, schools are funded by local taxes, but

His point is that the long-distance connection has been digital for many decades now, even back in the 1980s according to one comment here. He's being hyperbolic of course, since there's people in their 90s and 100s who made phone

That's a very stupid and offensive response, considering the OP explicitly wrote: "One of my use cases for VPN is to watch free, legal anime on YouTube from Muse-Asia."

Let's think of the converse: should it be illegal to provide an AI chatbot to children that indoctrinates them with anti-religious beliefs (i.e., it talks them out of religious beliefs)? And what if this conflicts with the child'

No, I'm not at all. If you really think the GOP is going to promote legislation to "[Ensure] sick leave, vacation time, and [improve] wages, especially on the lower end", then you are seriously delusional. You'd have t

This place is claimed to be "hacker news"; an explanation of the significance of the number 2600 shouldn't be necessary. :-)
