It’s nice to see how the AI ‘hype’ is accelerating (no pun intended) technology like storage…but at what point does processing become the bottleneck and not storage? Is that not already the case?

Gone are the times when I could spend some time perusing around Fry’s…looking at all the discrete components and computers. It was sad seeing it die too; all the empty shelves filled with the same item spread out…

That’s a self fulfilling prophecy…say that is the case. The one thing that won’t change is the jobless and skill less Americans; I understand that the road to hell is paved with good intentions but at this point we can’t help but not ignore

That’s a good question! As a layman I would assume there’s no way to read/detect the hormones that would demand acceleration of the heartbeat? So one has to take it easy for the rest of their life? Or maybe there’s a way to manipulate

Hmm, seems like I’ll be able to replace my cantenna with this to find malicious IoT devices spamming the airwaves with DeAuth attacks…! Imagine being able to catch crooks using Flipper Zeros to defeat wireless cameras…can track them in real
