The Daily Show did a segment on him a couple months ago.

If anything it should be a joint venture between Iran and Oman, the country on the other side of the strait that’s mostly getting ignored in all this.

Israel: We’re not included in the ceasefire
Iran: You sure about that?

And yet somehow the part where there are active MLB players who share names with Cold Play’s lead singer and Carlos Santana is not wrong.

Apparently it was just Gmail:

Reuters was ​not able to ⁠independently authenticate the Patel emails, but the personal Gmail address that Handala claims to have broken into ​matches the address linked to Patel in previous ​data breaches ⁠preserved by the dark web intelligence firm District 4 Labs. Alphabet-owned Google, which runs Gmail, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The authors of the article don’t seem to be the media though:

Steve Hanke is a professor of applied economics at The Johns Hopkins University and a member of the Board of Directors at the Federal Fiscal Sustainability Foundation. He is the co-editor, with Barry W. Poulson and John Merrifield, of Public Debt Sustainability: International Perspectives (Lexington Books, 2022). David M. Walker is the former Comptroller General of the United States and the Chairman of the Board of Directors at the Federal Fiscal Sustainability Foundation.

100 AI-written emails per day

There are at least 2 dead people on the plane. I think I’d wait for another flight…

Also: Shut down Iran’s nuclear weapons development that accelerated after “Trump I” pulled the US out of the deal that was keeping it in check.

How much video information does a project file even have though? Like, if it’s just instructions for editing together the video clips, that aren’t even being uploaded, that doesn’t seem very useful for AI training.

The program now requires video projects to be saved to Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage service in order to continue editing them, reports Windows Latest.

According to Microsoft, the media files themselves (such as video clips and images) don’t necessarily need to be synced to the cloud.

This is less shitty than I expected. Forcing people to put videos and images in OneDrive could have pushed them towards paying for more OneDrive space, but if it’s just the project file I’m not even sure why Microsoft made the change. Are Clipchamp project files big?

We just had this month’s Patch Tuesday and they’re still dealing with problems caused by last month’s?! I really need to try harder to convince my father putting Linux on his current computer is a better idea than buying a Windows 11 computer.

Looks like it really might have vanity for Rubio:

As Vice President J.D. Vance recalled at an event in December, the Journal reported, he was meeting with Trump, Rubio, and an unnamed third politician in the Oval Office when the president accused Vance and Rubio of having “shitty shoes.” Trump asked them all for their shoe size; Vance made sure to put in the record that he’s a size 13, while Rubio claimed to be an 11 and the third man a 7. The president then launched a sideways insult at the guy with the daintiest feet: “You know you can tell a lot about a man by his shoe size.”

That the “locker-room talk” president would place an inordinate, genital-related premium on a man’s foot size was surely no surprise to Rubio, who has risen in GOP influence in direct proportion to his willingness to contort himself to Trump’s exact desires. It does not seem out of the realm of possibility, then, that Rubio would inflate his own shoe specs to impress Trump with his masculine bulk.

What I read was that Trump has been guessing the shoe sizes and people don’t want to correct him.

I suppose now it’s just a matter of time until a transphobe complains that the women-only option matched them with a trans woman.

I can’t remember if it was at university or a job, but there was a server named ‘borg’ and on there localhost really would have been borg.

Maybe this will fix Alberta’s budget problems!

Oh right, the US government is still partially shut down. Don’t really hear much about Congress trying to do anything about it these days.

So after all that, Epic just got the commission cut by 1/3? Wonder how long it’ll take their savings to equal what they spent on legal fees and the revenue they missed while Fortnite wasn’t on the Play Store.

edit: Ars’ coverage says attorneys’ fees were included in the settlement, so I guess Epic only needs to make up the missed revenue.

This time around, a dedicated NPU would be required, a specialized processor designed to handle AI tasks.

Releasing an OS that requires an NPU when Intel and AMD are only this year starting to ship desktop CPUs that even have an NPU seems very aggressive.
