I'm not sure what to think of him putting the blame on the EU. His argument does sound reasonable, but I don't have a lot of knowledge about said kernel API's nor the actual objections of the EU and have a hard time estimating his level of bias in favor of Microsoft as an ex-employee.

I never really understood the appeal of putting data centers in the ocean to cool them. A location near a lake or river seemed much more optimal in terms of maintenance. I didn't consider the possibility of attaching it to a windmill. It makes a lot more sense that way, although I do wonder how large those advantages are.

I also haven't heard anything about Microsoft's plans to use SMR's to power their datacenters anymore. I wonder what happened with that.

Dude is almost certainly a kiddy diddler too

Please avoid making those kind of statements based on pure speculation

Yes, but what if someone just creates a new instance and adds previous accounts. How do other instances know that the running instance has changed and didn't just go offline if it's registered on the original domain?

I don't think it's really directed at you and moreso about making fun of the company who didn't put in any effort to make it show up correctly.

I feel like this could be abused by a bad actor by recreating instances in several ways:

  1. Use the "dead" accounts that are still mods on communities on other instances.
  2. Sneakily monitor user behavior (like votes etc.) without looking out of place.
  3. Impersonate users.

I feel like it would be a good idea to start a list of the domains of dead instances and add them to a blocklist until the original people start using them again.

I wonder whether the isreali government is currently trying to Lobby for trump in the background.

Thanks for the response. I've just sent an email.

I was inspired by a recent blog post about contributing to KDE, but just found out I'm apparently blocked. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Fyi. AMD has gone down 13% this week. Intel went up today.

 

Does anyone else have issues with the canvas site?
