> Lastly, the US has got to start eating seasonally.

Fair. But the almonds and alfalfa would like a word, especially since the alfalfa is shipped around the world for others to consume in some way.

So while it's definitely agriculture as a serious source, it's not just the US as the driver of that source.

I take it you didn't read all of this, considering they tried to impersonate the moderators so they wouldn't get caught, set up heartbeats to find out how long they'd live, and used tor/AWS/DO to hide what was being done.

All of that sounds like more than a nothingburger, and much more like a system that is actively trying to conceal what its doing.

They're still doing ocean cleanup, too. Getting the fishing equipment out of the water is a huge improvement.

This is the CPU that I first learned to code on, first in TI Basic (TI-8[1356] ftw) and then Z80 assembler. Crazy to think that the CPU was "old" when I started, and it's still doing good work in those calculators even 20+ years later.

My immediate thought was that someone managed to get an access key, stuffed a ton of data in there, and then was doing a ridiculous amount of egress. That was the only way I could conceivably coming up with anywhere near that much cost.

Thinking that an AI generated image is somehow more efficient to make than a high res photo followed by a print is a bit odd to me.

My high school girlfriend and I played this game all the time; trying to build the pizzas to get the best score was always super frustrating. It always felt like I could be a single pixel off and get a really low score, but I loved building my "empire"

I notice at this time there are no comments about systemd. I figured there would be at least one comment about it and "it does not try to do everything".
