Isn’t that the exact opposite of what they had been talking about doing?

Edit: also it’s not a question of US law, by attempting to “annex” foreign territory you’re committing an act of war no matter what your domestic laws say.

The Nvidia PR team. They keep trying to spin more data centers and even more of the US GDP being gobbled up by slop generation as some kind of consumer win but nobody is buying it and their whining is starting to annoy Jensen.

In the late 90s I saw a piece demonstrating an optical 3d storage system that had a capacity about an order of magnitude greater than the at the time brand new HD DVD and Bluray discs. I assumed this clearly superior format that already had a working demo would obviously kill other optical media. Turns out nobody could figure out how to manufacture one at a price anybody was willing to spend.

Entirely not the point.

Be careful with this statement, there’s two very different ways this could be interpreted. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’re alluding to the end of WWII and how Hitler chose to leave it, but it could also be interpreted to refer to the start of WWII.

Churches need to lose the blanket tax exempt status. If they want to be tax exempt they should file as a non-profit like all the other tax exempt non-profits. Of course they would never do that because it would mean actually functioning as a non-profit.

The problem is it doesn’t have anything to do with how strong or weak the federal government is right now. Trump literally does not care what he’s “allowed” to do as part of the federal government, he just does what he wants and then dares anybody to stop him and so far everyone else has blinked. Half the things he’s done he’s not actually legally allowed to, so removing even more powers from the federal government won’t stop him and it will just further empower the bad actors at the state level.

The primary argument for state vs. federal isn’t about someone having “too much power”, it’s about having the option to experiment with different ideas. If there’s no clear consensus about something and a bunch of different ways you can go about handling it that all seem equally valid that’s a pretty good argument for leaving it up to the states to hammer out. If it’s something basic that everyone should be on board with like basic human rights, that’s a good argument for federal control.

Maybe you should stop assuming things before commenting. And in general. You might also want to reread the article you seem to have skipped some important details.

Eh, maybe. The actual performance seems to be unknown. They’re assuming the geekbench score is legitimate, but there’s no way to really know exactly how well it will do when it actually ships. It’s probably safe to assume somewhere between the two, but either way it’s not competing with current gen AMD or Nvidia cards, and might not even be competing with current Intel GPUs.

I was basing that on the quote saying it rivals a 4060.

Sounds like it’s about equivalent to Intel’s latest GPU. Both are running about a little over a generation behind AMD and Nvidia. Meanwhile Nvidia is busy trying to kill their consumer GPU division to free up more fab space for data center GPUs chasing that AI bubble. AMD meanwhile has indicated they’re not bothering to even try to compete with Nvidia on the high end but rather are trying to land solidly in the middle of Nvidia’s lineup. More competition is good but it seems like the two big players currently are busy trying to not compete as best they can, with everyone else fighting for their scraps. The next year or two in the PC market are shaping up to be a real shit show.

I don’t know that that’s related to WFH, I’ve been waiting a month now for someone to provision a new server and I’m in office twice a week. If someone isn’t doing what they need to it seems they’re just as capable of not doing so in office as they are from home.

This is interesting. Do all pills come in blister packs in Denmark? Over in the US it’s actually somewhat rare for prescription medication to come in blister packs. Typically over the counter prepackaged medication will come in blister packs, but prescriptions are almost always unpackaged pills in a bottle. The pharmacist counts out the number of pills and puts them in the bottle as well as attaching its label to match the prescription. Prescriptions are typically written based on pills per day and the number of days to either take the medication or else for the prescription to cover. E.G. the doctor makes out a prescription like “take one pill twice a day for 60 days”, and then the pharmacist will give you a bottle with 120 pills in it.

Browsers already have the do not track header, it should just honor that. If you have that set it should be an automatic opt out no banner necessary.

Ah yes the classic “You’re making me hit you, I don’t want to, but you’re making me do this”. Maybe instead of blaming the flawed attempt at protecting you from abuse you instead blame the ones doing the abusing.

Website operators don’t want to have to display cookie banners

This is false. If they didn’t want to display the banners they could literally remove them, there’s absolutely nothing requiring them as long as they don’t track your behavior. They refuse to give up tracking so they add the banners to annoy visitors and hopefully trick some of them into accidentally opting into tracking. It’s an abusive manipulation of a loophole in the GDPR. If they really hated the banners they could just not track you but they rather make it your problem.

Gum disease could lead to tooth loss but the primary way people lose them is through infections due to cavities. The infection weakens the tooth and the jawbone it’s rooted in as well as can lead to loss of the root nerve. At a certain point the tooth is too loose or weak and has to be removed to prevent further infection and/or to treat the existing infection.

Nah, the pharmaceutical companies have covered themselves via reams of fine print. Using any of the GCMs (or pumps for that matter) means signing away all your legal protections and even if it didn’t the companies have billion dollar lawyers that can easily crush any case brought against them. Unless you’re a multimillionaire you literally can’t afford to sue any of them.

That’s the real flaw with the current US legal system (the civil one at least), individuals can’t afford to bring cases against large corporations. Class action cases can make it possible, but even then the odds are in the favor of the corporations and even if you win nobody actually makes anything off of those besides the lawyers. Typically the lawyers take 50% of the judgement off the top and by the time you divvy up the remaining 50% among all the participants it’s at most a few hundred bucks each if even that.

I’m allergic to many of the barriers as well. There is one I found that I’m not allergic to and it does help a lot but it’s not perfect. Near the end of the 14 day period the area the unit was inserted would often start itching and when removed would show signs of irritation.

More importantly though I found the Dexcom units to be worse than the Abbott ones in some ways. The Libre 3 has a fall off where it starts reading fairly accurately and then progressively reads lower and lower over time in a linear fashion. The Dexcom G2 on the other hand would start off somewhat inaccurate which could be corrected using a couple of manual glucose readings, but then as time went by it would get progressively more inaccurate in a random direction and no amount of recalibration using manual glucose readings would fix that.

Dexcom claims the margin of error is 20% and will replace any unit that starts reading outside that range, but at least for me that was literally every unit at some point. Some of them that was right out of the box, some of them that was after 5 days, but it always happened and it was unpredictable. I find the predictable decline of the Abbott units preferable to the random inaccuracy of the Dexcom units. At least with the Libre 3 I can estimate how far off the reading is based on how long I’ve been using it, with the G2 it was a complete crap shoot on whether the reading was accurate or not at any given time.

It was my experience with the libre 2+ and the libre 3. I’ve never used the libre 1 so I couldn’t say if it applies to that one. That said the 2 and the 1 don’t really qualify as CGMs as you need to poll them for glucose readings and I believe they’re limited on polling frequency (something like once every 5 min) so they’re much closer to a traditional glucose monitor than they are a true CGM.
