They’re delaying the physical release for the same reason they’re delaying the PC release. To keep interest high over time and fleece collectors and double dippers. Is it not obvious?
It also has the added benefit of completely avoiding the largest early-leak vector
Ah, I see you’re unfamiliar with the long, long, history of proposed and shot down reasonable and informative alternatives. Well I’m not gonna argue socioeconomics with you, so I hope you look into the many times this has been tried already and failed. I’ll try point you to some books about it when I get off work
No GDP alternative will ever have any legs because any formula that takes average buying power, health, and/or quality of life into account would place the English speaking countries and the US near the bottom of the list. Can’t have that
I don’t know how to be any clearer.
LOW COST > HIGH COST.
It’s money. The goal is to save as much money as possible. Businesses, corporations, contractors, investors. All the people making decisions are trying to save every bit of money possible.
Surely you realize heat transfer efficiency isn’t linked to the cost of water. Which doesn’t even show up on the balance sheet.
100 * 0 = 100000000 * 0
Again, they’re not using water for its properties. Heat transfer efficiency is low on the list of priorities. Cost, both upfront and running, is the deciding factor
This article fails to mention (I presume, after skimming it) that all these data centers aren’t using water because it is magically better suited for this job, it’s just cheap and abundant.
This “new cooling design” doesn’t mean shit when it doesn’t address the reason data centers are using so much water
As long as it can be turned off, it’s not a dealbreaker for me. I prefer living in the upstream where, AFAIK, firefox gets all the vulnerabilities patched first
One eye per hemisphere? Are you that one Hollywood exec who insists humans only use 1% of their brain?
I would recommend watching his Channel 5 interview, but after recommending it to someone I know, who came away from it saying “Shia is so funny and likable”, I’m not so sure anymore. The guy is clearly unwell and a danger to himself and the people around him. At least he seems aware of it and is honest about it, but he’s looking for help in all the wrong places (Jesus). He’s likely going to get a lighter sentence than most due to understanding and admitting to his wrongdoing, not just because he’s a celebrity.
What’s more likely, the prime minister is a clueless idiot who keeps making blunder after blunder and is too stupid to even consider asking for advice from experts in the field, or he’s paid by terrorists?
This is the president who instructed schools, universities and hospitals to conduct bombing drills “in case of Iranian attack”, DURING Israeli bombings which are vanishing entire neighborhoods. He thinks siding with the terrorists will cause them to spare him. Utter fool.
Not just the past few years, since the invention of Israel, all the biggest news agencies purge staff reporting on them every few years
Having friends in Lebanon, I feel obligated to check the channels for updates. It’s true. Reuters is complicit for framing it this way
This is completely unrelated but you said “suspicious permissions” and triggered my need to moan about not being allowed to make or join teams calls (since last year, I think?) unless you give Microsoft a list of all devices on your network. Fuck you microsoft and your dogshit apps
I remember that porn was overtaken by social media in 2016. Can’t find a source for that any more though
I’m out of the loop, Ubuntu has been broken/unstable?
No
Controversial. Some would argue better things are worse than good things
Those things were happening before him and continue DESPITE him. If you get downvoted it’s because you insinuated he had anything to do with that.
