This one affirms our convictions so it must be true
Most of the people here would still vote for Biden if he was wheelchair bound and communicated with a bell zipp-tied to his armrest like Tio Salamanca.
The question isn’t “is he better than trump”, it’s “will enough people be motivated to go vote for a candidate that’s slipping into a waking coma?” and every day that Biden opens his mouth in front of a camera like tonight he looses more people who don’t give a fuck about politics.
There is no good news from this debate. If the democrats have a single other option to replace Biden on the ticket they should do it now or else ensure a trump presidency.
Voters giveth, voters taketh away.
And most people in that audience didn’t actually watch the debate live, but will have Biden’s biggest blunders blasted at them on repeat for the next 5 months.
Do you think lemmy.world/c/politics is a good representation of the american electorate?
I guess… I am still very skeptical the profit margin even if some people do end up paying for the storage. We’re talking about petabytes on petabytes of data… How many people need to pay a cloud subscription fee to pay for the overhead of the servers?
Idk. This is super suss to me but again, I am clearly not the target market for this service so maybe I don’t have a firm grasp of the landscape.
Biden’s 2030 projections are not aggressive enough and are at-odds with trade relations with the largest green energy manufacturer on the planet and with the multiple large-scale military conflicts we are actively fanning. I’m assuming their 2030 projections do not account for the millions of pounds of explosives being set off in the ME and in Ukraine.
It’s like a pack-a-day smoker whining about their doctor not praising them for loosing weight from dieting, even though their diet is one of those cayenne pepper and lemon juice cleanses. Like, good job with loosing 50 pounds, but if you don’t stop smoking like a chimney you’re still gonna die of a heart attack.
I get that we want to feel good about our political outlook but holy fuck now is not the time to be celebrating.
It cannot be that profitable to have just a bunch of random data on their servers. I have so much junk and random bullshit on my drives, it would take a week of labor just to clean my shit well enough to use it for AI training and as soon as I got any notification about cloud space being full i’d turn syncing off - i sure as hell wouldn’t fork over any money for a subscription. This is such a big bridge to burn, and the server overhead must be massive… I just don’t understand how they could possibly think this is a good business decision.
Idk, maybe i’m just too deep into privacy/FOSS/selfhosting headspace to see things clearly from the normal-consumer standpoint but I just do not understand this. I really wish someone would leek an internal conversation at one of these companies that explains the big-picture strategy with this move.
US liberals and US conservatives both share the core ideals of Liberalism, including the right to private property
They differ only in where they think individual liberty ends.
Skill issue.
Yup, I ended up frankensteining a nas from various craigslist parts (i actually found a low-power business-class server motherboard that has worked out well for the purpose). Had to get a SAS HBA card and a couple SFF-8087 cables to do the job right, and I grabbed an old gaming case from the 2010’s to hold it all, but it was relatively seamless. I had one of the drives go out already, but luckily I had it in a raid configuration with parity so it was just a matter of swapping out the drives and rebuilding.
It’s been fun and rewarding, for sure! I’m glad I didn’t sell them like these other dweebs told me to lol
Maybe in a particular light, but I’m personally of the opinion that intellectual property and patent law is antithetical to good social policy… so idk. Ideally we’d all benefit from the knowledge and ingenuity of all mankind but in a capitalist economic world-view there’s no place for egalitarianism so…
If they can take the same tech and make it better/produce it cheaper then I think that’s great, go nuts.
But that’s obviously just me.
People shit on China all the goddamn time here but they’ve done a prolific job becoming the tech and manufacturing leader in a handful of decades.
Blame it on tech espionage if you want but there’s a reason the US is deadset on targeting Chinese imports, and it’s hardly for any of the security reasons they might be tempted to claim it to be. The US is about to be left behind and it’s noones fault but our own.
I’m so curious about those two downvotes
This is… this is really antisemitic… right? And Islamophobic…?
This is definitely some nazi shit
Guess ill be trying my hand at building my own pfsense router
This has to be a copypasta
