Chase Sapphire Reserve would net that out to approximately $0 on a monthly basis after credits and rebates.

Even if it's allegedly possible, the devil has always been in the details. It always sucks to find out that there's some quirk of your model architecture that breaks an implicit assumption that underpins the export process.

Everyone is salivating at the prospect of One Rich A-hole Called Larry Ellison getting his come-uppance, but this is the correct take. Oracle without cloud is still a profitable (if much smaller) business that can continue on for quite a while. Larry (along with everyone else holding $ORCL) gets hosed, but corporations will still continue to get extortion requests couched as "opportunities to license Java 8"

I also have a MBP from 2015 and have a recent OS install via OCLP. With only an i5 and 8GB it's slow to start, but once everything is going it's a reasonable UX if I stick to Safari.

I would argue that we need a `torch[stubs]` package (or similar) that doesn't install any form of libtorch. The CPU version of libtorch is 160MB compressed and 400MB extracted.

After being heard to exclaim "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?", Henry II subsequently explained that the 4 knights each came to their own individual decisions about how best to deploy their swords.

Having been a customer of a government run postal bank, I'm going to hard disagree.

The trade-off here is that there's at least one instance where a protocol gap and a locked door led to intentional CFIT (Germanwings 9525)
