because there is still 2012-era belief hanging around many people that Tesla's EV tech is superior to anything else

yeah, they legitimately used to be but the rest of the world has definitely improved and Teslas weirdly haven't that much. They're cruising on name brand and a really decent charging network, but even that moat is being breached.

DigitalOcean is fantastic in my experience, way better than The Big Three, especially Azure.

Yes I know! Scaleway is great as well. But I was referring to the product portfolio.

walking and sitting on a bench as well, correct?

Sure, at the same rate as cars, $20/hr per 12.5m^2. Since I take up about .25m^2, my bill for today ought to be about $0.10, so let me know how I should pay it.

Or we can acknowledge the reason we have money: to distribute scare resources. Parking in urban areas is scarce and expensive, while space to walk and sit simply isn't.


No, the idea is that storing cars takes up a lot of public space. Each parking space is basically a tiny garage.

Why do we give away garage space for free to car owners? Storage for your vehicle in a busy city shouldn't be subsided by default. The space is too valuable and could be used instead for better public benefit.


You don't, you pirate it. If you paid perfectly working, non-vibecoded dollars for Windows 11 Pro which became utterly broken, pirating whatever you need from Microslop to actually having a working computer is morally right.

> If you paid perfectly working, non-vibecoded dollars for Windows 11 Pro

then you already have a license.


Not for the 'working' version of windows which is LTSC or enterprise not pro.

Unfortunately they don't sell single LTSC licenses to individuals


There are smaller VARs that will sell you one. Not hard at all

My Win 11 Pro install is not "utterly broken" and is actually quite responsive.

What did I do wrong on my 5800X3D w/ 4090?


> Something like this will set you back $30K-$60K per year

lol, no, cloud is nowhere near that good value. It’s $3.5M annually.

> The Standard_HX176rs HPC VM size gives you 176 cores and 1.4 TB of memory

This one is $124k per year.


Thanks for the correction, fixed.

I noticed that the M896i is so obscure and rarely used that there are typos associated with it everywhere including the official docs! In once place is says it has 23 TB of memory when it actually has 32 TB.


Nowadays the 718 might be more of a Porsche than the 911

It definitely is, especially for the price.

But the 911 range has a lot of bandwidth and there are models that go from minimalist driver’s car (911 T) to Touring/GT (most 911s) to race car for the street (GT2/GT3). But you definitely pay to step outside the GT box.


Why would you care about ADAS on a drivers' car? Sure that might be useful on a Camry or another point A -> point B appliance, but I doubt Porsche buyers give any thought to those features.

Because in their eyes if something was not invented here, it may as well not exist :-) they haven’t managed to cure this sickness in decades.


>Why is it governments job

Because it’s literally the excuse for taxation?


And I'm sure there will be some excuse for sf's clearance rates -- and that juiced by people not bothering to report crime here -- being horrific.

We're now at the point where Geico doesn't even ask you to cosplay working government by filing a police report. Because everyone knows that nothing will happen.


It's one of the purposes, sure. But I don't think the set of people who want to raise taxes, and the set of people complaining about rampant shop lifting have very many people in common.

Would you personally support cities levying higher sales taxes on in-store purchases at large stores that forgo traditional security guards (let's imagine matching the state rate, so effectively a doubling) to pay for the resulting costs of those stores not preemptively securing their merchandise?


It’s also illegal in most countries


So is exceeding the speed limit...
