This post made me think “if there’s lesbian porn for the male gaze, is there gay porn for the female gaze?”

Sometimes I want to look at two ladies

Thanks for reminding me to tear down my test AWS instances

The largest companies are the cloud.

Privacy doesn’t exist on corporate networks, so they don’t. However, the early thin clients had local servers. I don’t know how the very largest companies would feel about giving Amazon that much power.

I’ve been pleasantly surprised. Even on WiFi with other peoples streaming it’s good enough to play games like Minecraft and Subnautica, but since I mainly play boring stuff like KSP or Civ latency isn’t much of an issue.

What I won’t do is tell you who my provider is because they’re already having problems at peak times and I don’t want to make it worse.

I already sort of do this with my gaming machine. It lives on a cloud host and I connect with a client.

It’s cheaper and more convenient than buying a new PC - especially since I’ve got three gamers in my house - and offloading graphics means I can get better battery life when playing on my laptop in my hammock.

However, if you’re more than a couple hundred miles from the data center or there’s network problems you won’t be having much fun. That’s the only reason I’d want an actual gaming machine, and even then I’d play via remote desktop from my hammock.

From an IT operations perspective this makes so much sense they’ve already tried it before. They were called “thin clients” and just had enough compute and network to connect to run remote desktop software.

This greatly reduces the amount of spending you need to build out a large corporate network, and centralizes management just like they already do for servers with stuff like VMWare.

His muzzle discipline is pretty terrible

And I think you’re confusing being happy someone is dying with trying to kill them.

Historically speaking, things always get worse. Solving problems just leads to more and worse problems to solve. Humans are doomed.

So the person who is happy about America failing - the one with the hammer and sickle - is a capitalist?

If pirating Photoshop counts as a lost sale then so does downloading GIMP.

If so, this man is one of the greatest software pirates ever.

They should make the next IP standard spin. Spinning is so much cooler than not spinning.

It would be less of a nightmare than changing all our addresses to add four more sets, be alphanumeric, and to change the separator.

The design team flew too close to the sun with that.

This is a pretty good takedown of IPv6 but I think the biggest problem with its adoption is the addresses. They look like gobbledygook just so we can give everything a public address and it made it a lot more fiddly to configure.

Good to know. But unless you want to be giving Rivers Cuomo the autofocus ones probably aren’t your style.

Also, could there be a backlash against thick frames in the future because they might be hiding electronics

Stop IPv6 from existing.

Make IPv5, add a fifth number to the address, and improve NAT.

Not every particle in the universe needs a publicly routable address.
