Well this process also spawned Verizon, so they do have legitimate competition now and that’s what matters to antitrust actions

The US did this to AT&T. It was broken up into dozens of “baby bells”. Then it gradually bought them all back up and now it’s as big as it ever was

• Plasma is more resource intensive, and this meme is specifically about machines that are 7-10 years out of date

Kid was expelled under the zero tolerance policy for drawing a gun

Know what else is great for that? RSS feeds.

GUSH

It actually inspired me to start writing my own competing period tracking app, Margaret Plug That Up Already You’re Ruining The Carpet

Drip is a horrible name for a period tracking app lol

Yeah I considered that too, but it only happens in one browser.

Tried a brand new profile?

Interesting. I use Firefox on everything at home, usually windows or android, and I rarely get those. Could it be one of your extensions? Proxy?

The dmca is a federal law, it is the feds.

Regardless of who created the underlying tech, the internet is the result of taking ARPAnet, a US department of defense project, public. The US absolutely created the internet. There’s nothing stopping other countries from using those techs, bypassing IANA, and creating their own networks if they don’t like the US controlling the backbone of the network they created.

Also it kind of defeats the point because it isn’t a stand against IANA it’s saying build your own internet, not take back the one we already have.

The US created the internet and created IANA to manage it. You’re not talking about taking it back, you’re talking about taking it. If you want to control it you should build your own, like the US or North Korea did.

Those countries are free to build out their own tcp/ip networks and configure them however they like. North Korea did it, how hard can it be?

Keep in mind that that was a demo to sell Copilot.

And whether it works as well as they described remains to be seen. However, they did prove that there’s a legitimate use case for generative AI in the office, in most offices. It’s not just a toy.

My org’s Microsoft reps gave a demo of their upcoming copilot 365 stuff. It can summarize an email chain, use the transcript of a teams meeting to write a report, generate a PowerPoint of the key parts of that report, and write python code that generates charts and whatnot in excel. Assuming it works as advertised, this is going to be really big in offices. All of that would save a ton of time.

Elitism and gatekeeping from a linux user? Nah, never, I must have misread

Oh yeah, I forgot about management engine

I don’t consider Linux based os’s Unix, which takes most servers and android out of the running. Unix might still be bigger, idk
