I'm sure an AI babysitter won't be immediately and utterly broken and bypassed by every single kid in these "classes".
(Seriously: we're talking about 8-12 year olds here and the absolutely are smart enough and incentivized to break the ever-loving crap out of this stupid idea.)
I'd seriously consider unifi gear, like the other comments seem to have also suggested.
The only thing you don't get is ethernet drops out of the APs or anything like that, but the UAPs in a mesh configuraiton could proabbly do everything you want, unless you have a shockingly large piece of property.
underestimate how much work Mozilla does in standards and low-level shared API’s via w3c
Oh, I didn't mean to disparage the work they do: I know it's important and extensive. I've been a Firefox user since, well, it was called Netscape. It's a critical piece of software.
I was mostly just rolling my eyes at the sheer panic they're having with the only funding source they've bothered to cultivate going away, along with the fact that a good portion of that money is spent on things that aren't the browser, and frankly, don't bring a lot of value to the table or matter in the slightest.
Dumping the Corporation baggage and making the Foundation strongly independent makes a lot more sense than begging to let Google keep paying them, which seems to be their approach, at least based on that open letter.
These drives aren't for people who care how much they cost, they're for people who have a server with 16 drive bays and need to double the amount of storage they had in them.
(Enterprise gear is neat: it doesn't matter what it costs, someone will pay whatever you ask because someone somewhere desperately needs to replace 16tb drives with 32tb ones.)
Shit, we didn't even need an argument to stab each other.
I've still got bits of pencil broken off in my limbs from school.
But the article says they used Yahoo once! (When, I assume, Yahoo outbid Google.)
I agree we need an independent browser, but right now Firefox is about as independent as my cat, and they're both a bit deluded into thinking that's not the case.
The first thing that I have to ask: do we need Firefox-the-business providing Firefox-the-browser, or are they just dragging around a lot of Google-induced baggage that's otherwise worthless.
I have a strong feeling on that one, but hey.
What's your budget?
A $200 budget is going to get you VERY different options than a $1000 budget, especially since you're wanting to connect multiple buildings.
It wasn't mismanaged, at all.
It was flat-out stolen by Congress.
Or if you prefer to be all polite they took it, and wrote an IOU knowing full well there's no way there'd ever be any money to pay them back without jacking taxes way up, and that's never going to happen. (And even if it did, that's you paying yourself back with new taxes on your old taxes.)
Functionally the same thing, really.
It's viable, but when you're buying a DAS for the drives, figure out what the USB chipset is and make sure it's not a flaky piece of crap.
Things have gotten better, but some random manufacturers are still using trash bridge chips and you'll be in for a bad time. (By which I mean your drives will vanish in the middle of a write, and corrupt themselves.)
Yeah, I remember the 'grandma wanted to die for the economy!' ghouls.
And the 'it's just a flu!' people pissed me the fuck off. Like have you morons never HAD the flu? It's not like the flu is somehow pleasant and fun. You don't want the flu! Nobody wants the flu! You idiots got a flu shot, get your damn covid shot.
I dunno, seems appropriate.
Benjamin Franklin had a very Opinion about the bald eagle:
For my own part I wish the bald eagle had not been chosen as the representative of our country. He is a bird of bad moral character. He does not get his living honestly. You may have seen him perched on some dead tree, where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the labour of the fishing hawk; and when that diligent bird has at length taken a fish, and is bearing it to his nest for the support of his mate and young ones, the bald eagle pursues him, and takes it from him
The bird who doesn't do anything valuable and just takes from the ones that are working is American as fuck at this point.
Seems like the perfect bird and perfect bill to pass for a bunch of people who live off the public dole, and do nothing whatsoever otherwise.
One thing you probably need to figure out first: how are the dgpu and igpu connected to each other, and then which ports are connected to which gpu.
Everyone does funky shit with this, and you'll sometimes have dgpus that require the igpu to do anything, or cases where the internal panel is only hooked up to the igpu (or only the dgpu), and the hdmi and display port and so on can be any damn thing.
So uh, before you get too deep in planning what gets which gpu, you probably need to see if the outputs you need support what you want to do.
