I disagree. There is a huge difference between web host data centers and hyperscale compute data centers. It's disingenuous to use the same term to refer to both of these things. People are mad about the hyperscalers who want to pollute low income neighborhoods with noise and smog. Traditionally, data centers have used grid power, used far less power, and created far less noise than a "compute center".

This is hilarious to me. Democrat messaging re: technology seems to be all about building new power plants (obviously for data centers). Republican messaging re: technology seems to be all about building data centers. They both have the same plan.

I don't see how this demonstrates that. The seed could have been generated at a specific point in time, resulting in a specific value, which may be useful in some way. How is it any different from just defining a seed manually?

Some of it is. But those are often mandatory expenses. A lot of places only offer valet parking, and not tipping makes you look like an asshole.

This is because you dream in REM sleep (stage 4). Cannabis increases the length of stage 3, and decreases the length of stage 4.

You can’t get in trouble if you hack a thing that you bought. Just don’t hack someone else’s things.

I just want a 4S sized phone made with modern parts. I also miss how the 4S camera looked, all the cameras since that one have produced weird looking images.

*67 just stops the call recipient's phone from displaying caller ID, your phone company still knows what number you dialed
