As Senator Cory Booker passes the time for longest speech on the senate floor, it is important to remind our representatives that this is the type of resistance we need in order to effect change. We must all speak out to continue to keep this conversation going! #nokings

Now at over 20 Hours and more than 61,000 viewers on the YouTube stream , Senator Cory Booker is speaking up and representing those of us that oppose the shift to authoritarianism. The Senators that supported him in this effort should be listed and applauded as well.

It is pretty incredible to watch Senator Cory Booker holding the #Senate floor with a #Filibuster for more than 12 Hours now - www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2ut...

Doesn't this mean there is a greater opportunity to poison the dataset? Couldn't you make statements that are false or ask questions with some illogical premise? This likely is already a risk, but I doubt that they can completely mitigate it. This will end up the least reliable model.

Bold of you to assume that anyone is actually manually copying and pasting and not just fully automating the slop factory. Search Trends -> Generate Analysis -> Post Blog... Dead Internet is more than a theory now. 😆

If the Republicans truly have a mandate, then let them bring the votes. Democratic leaders should not comply in advance. #nocr #nocloture. Dem leaders seem to think that the Replublicans are following the old rules. I am certain they are not and you must meet them head on.

The unpredictable nature of global financial markets and the turmoil being wrought by the United States uncertain trade policy is exactly the reason that our retirement should not be privitized. It is not an entitlement, we pay for the program. Some do not pay their share. #politics

I don't know if this is the case for my SNES, but I did find out that mine has the "PPU Rot" condition. Which is a bummer because some games like Mario World work great, but Donkey Kong Country does not. My understanding is that this chip will eventually fail in all units and no replacement exists😢

I know what it was... it lacked empathy and hope, it was all about attacking and belittling "others", those that Trump perceives to be harming him. Most #SOTU addresses are forward looking and present a vision for a better future. This did not do that, it was meant to be hurtful and threatening.

That was the worst #SOTU I have ever seen. I will not finish watching that performative nonsense with the GOP knowingly watching critical government systems fail and entirely aware that it puts the citizens, whom they are supposed to represent, at risk.

So it sounds like the President of the US just laid out his authoritarian agenda and threatened to forcibly remove anyone that resists... wtf #SOTU

This is definitely notable; I too try to select the required minimums only to be confronted with "Accept" instead of "Save my Selections". The number of "Partner Cookies" is out of control and I don't think non-tech people understand just how much data they are sharing.

No doubt, the number of "fake" followers that I have been gaining and losing is significant to me... even if only a few each day, I can't imagine what the popular accounts are dealing with. Most of the ones I get are Phishing based.. "Click my links today only" no DMs yet.

Ingram Micro ends Broadcom/VMware relationship Giant distributor couldn't do a deal that delivered 'appropriate shareholder return'

They say that it is not going to have a material impact to their business. But this is a pretty big announcement. Obviously a slap at Broadcom www.theregister.com/2024/12/16/i...

I think that would be ideal. Happy workers produce better products. Unfortunately, the initial investment has to come from somewhere, and if it is not the founders pockets, then it is outside investors.. and they generally don't loan money for free.

Profits are excess earnings that typically go to the owners or shareholders. However, Companies and Organizations can absolutely make money and still operate in a "not for profit" way, monies made by these companies are put back into the business or returned to the workers as bonuses.

At least some good news for #intel today, it looks like the #Battlemage cards are getting good reviews. I don't think it does a lot for the company as a whole, but they could certainly use some praise right now. gamersnexus.net/gpus/intel-a...

Bare metal can come back, says Gartner, citing VMware prices Latest datacenter Hype Cycle also includes augmented reality, new types of memory, nuke power

Speaking with a customer recently about securing a small DMZ cluster without incurring additional expenses. My intrusive thoughts suggested just running a standalone host, but then I thought, Ha. No one would do that now a days.. www.theregister.com/2024/07/03/g...

Since joining the sales side of the industry, I have had contact with a number of organizations that are considering moving, but can't right now.. I expect the next renewal period will see a lot more attrition. Those that haven't yet reached renewal are making plans now.

VMware users now wary of relying on a single stack Now wants to work with 500 and lean more on partners to defend against migrations – which Dell says are on the cards

It will be interesting to see if this appeases any customers that were already considering a move.

I never had the chance to work at VMware but I worked with so many people AT VMware that benefitted from his tenure. I am certain that he tried to continue that at Intel but too many things were already broken and there just wasn't enough time or trust to get there.

It is a shame, I believe that Pat was responsible for a sizable positive culture shift at VMware prior to the Broadcom acquisition and He may well have been trying to bring that innovation focus back to Intel, but he made numerous errors and never really had the trust of the investors...
