Musk really needs to do it now to get a decent listing.
The problem is he has no income for all his AI stuff, Twitter advertising revenue is still in the toilet, and spaceX’s biggest customer is the US government, but the Democrats fucking hate him, and the mid terms are coming up.
So time to squeeze the little guys to get some revenue.
Got to cash out their shares using your pension fund before they go bankrupt.
You can blame American puritism for that.
No sexual content on these websites, instead we’re going to stir up rage and sell everyone an AR-14.

Bragging rights and improved sleeping ability from the knowledge that the devs are being supported.
The serious answer is it’s often easier for people in a company to buy a license key than it is for them to arrange a donation to the devs. So this is an easy way to make small donations.
You can get a very good idea of what works by just looking for AMD GPU cloud compute.
If it was usable and cheaper everyone would be offering it. As far as I can see, it’s still experimental and only the smaller players, e.g. IBM and Oracle are pushing it.
Depends.
You can argue that it’s basically art/political speech. You’ve done it to draw attention to flaws in the approach and to highlight how ineffectual the current system is, and that if you actually wanted to do make fake IDs you’d take a much less high-profile approach. As such, there’s no actual criminal intent required.
Don’t know if a judge would buy it though.
Ok, but one of the most important use cases is non-local access.
If I’m at home I can just go to the door.
Go on, drop a rocket on Zuck’s Bond villain hideout.
Let’s see what happens.
Commercial versions of these systems exist in the UK.

The Gdpr makes these things harder to do, but not automatically illegal.
Surely you have noticed that there is a lot of criticism of the GDPR and EU tech regulation.
Yeah, and some of it is even true.
You know open-source doesn’t mean publicly available. It means the person, or in this case the US government, that brought the software should have free access to the source code to edit and distribute it as they like.
So yes, the military should use something functional equivalent to open source to prevent vender lock in and to allow for external audits. They probably shouldn’t give it to Russia or make it freely available online though.
If LLMs just copied stack overflow they’d respond to every question with “Closed as duplicate. Question already answered.”
Ubuntu is deployed all over the place for data science.
I’m fairly sure this is because data scientists got used to running it on their personal machines and can’t be bothered to learn another distro.

You’re in a car. There’s probably a charging port there. Sucks if you don’t have a phone, but it sucked before when you didn’t have change.
Parking has always been a privilege not a right, and if you’re not prepared you’re going to get a ticket.
I get that it’s annoying but if my phone broke and I suddenly had to pay for parking with coins, I don’t know what I’d do either. Everything is cashless now, where would I get coins from?
Yeah but parking has always been bad.
You had to carry change. Meters were always out of order or would just eat your change without issuing a ticket, and the people checking never gave a shit and would give you a fine anyway.
My only complaint is the app, everyone should offer a website or an app, but if you’re going to park there a few times an app does make sense.
Because they’re fucking stupid.
I can pick up a phone in either hand and type on it using only that hand, and I can play games using both hands at once. If I’m using a bracer, it means I can’t do anything else with either hand or use my off hand to interact with it.
The only problem a bracer solves is not having pockets, but even then you still need to wear a bracer.
Then you wouldn’t need to tell people to work more hours.
This is the most famous example, but it’s for phones rather than desktops.
Remember that anthropic are renting this data center, and should be seen as just as responsible as Musk.

Also Musk is such a loser, he built and ran this giant polluting data center without knowing what to do with it, and ended up renting it out at what looks like a loss.
