Pepperidge farm remembers when they left OpenAI due to their principles. Perhaps that was never the case.

Public benefit corporation, hm?

The other providers have already capitulated to a certain extent.

I am not going to pretend to know what this person did, but I've definitely modified many things at once and made distinct commits after the fact (within 30s). I do not find it that abnormal.

I wanted to learn a new(ish) skill and am building a button box for sim racing with Arduino Nano, momentary switches, etc. It has been about twenty years since I’ve touched a soldering iron or built any kind of breadboard circuit.

That absolutely makes sense. Thanks for a quick TLDR!

Did you try loading the browser as a non-game application?

To be honest, I primarily do my browsing offline, and I installed https://localsend.org using Flatpak to move files to/from the Steam Deck. It works amazingly well.

Until congress actually does something all of this is simply hot air. I do not see how this could be implemented (other than some kind of tax) and pass muster with a conservative SCOTUS.

johnbellone — Tue, 06 Jan 2026 17:30:41 +0000

To me this all seems like downstream from massive capital expenses on GPU purchases, driving up the demand for memory, etc. It begs the question of how much of the GPU capacity that has been sold/delivered actually being utilized? Are we paying across the board for a bunch of inventory sitting idle?

I’d be upset and disapprove, but I wouldn’t ask them to bring him back.

It isn’t denial it is tribalism at this point.

I don’t really care to get involved of the affairs of foreign governments. This isn’t about “narcoterrorism” or democracy. You’re a fool if you think that.

The biggest difference for me for PCIe 5.0 has been additional bandwidth for my M2 drive.

I really wish I would've bought 192G when it was less than a few thousand dollars!
