There are some cases, where scaling is relatively hard to achieve in a sane manner. Especially when you're in that weird place where you've grown out of the SME solutions, but can't really justify the enterprise solution yet. I've worked on such a project, switching to the big boy DB cluster was pushed back again and again because of very high upfront costs (licenses and staff).

When I was 14 and got my second PC. That must have been around 2005 or so?
Installed Red Hat, printed a book about C and gave up rather quickly.
Ubuntu 6.04 or so (Dapper Drake?) Was the first one that I actually used for real.
Also, these games are not about failing, fear and hunger. Capitalism is.
It wouldn't be fun to play, if you'd have to grind 16h a day and be in danger of homelessness or starvation if you lose.
People play CoD all the time, but I'm sure a substantial percentage of the players would decidedly not enjoy bleeding out in an abandoned cottage.
Have you considered, that different places need different infrastructure?
I might also remark, that your houses are utterly unprepared for the -5C where I'm at currently, but that would be stupid.
Especially for data centers, it's absolutely a waste of money.
DCs consume very high amounts of power, but in a pretty predictable way. There is no reason whatsoever to use hydrogen in that context. Hydrogen is extremely expensive and will stay expensive more or less forever. Why would a fuel cell ever be economically viable here?
Hydrogen has its uses. This is not one of them.
MS auth also supports SMS via phone number. That's a whole new level of insecure, but lets you migrate to a new phone rather easily.
I'm 90% sure, all that 2FA crap is a sham anyway.
Not gonna happen.
There are some interesting projects going on, but a) still far from desktop performance and b) definitely not in a laptop.
Here too there are misconceptions!
What's important are the hard numbers, soft metrics like user count are misleading! Some may look large at first, but hardly grow with higher engagement, while in others engagement greatly increases the size.
Thing is, you have to measure from the user base on the underside, this graphic obviously uses the wrong method.
Ok, what kind of bullshit attitude is that?
You don't want to pay people, because some people are less motivated? Yeah, that's your problem as a business. Give them a reason to work hard or stop complaining.
Mom and Pop can't afford to pay proper wages? That's their problem. If other businesses can afford good salaries, why can't they? Maybe their business is simply rubbish.
Think about what twisted Stockholm syndrome you're expressing here. Capitalism is once, for the first time in decades, on the brink of actually increasing the wealth slightly for the workers, and all you can contribute is "yeah, but then capitalists can't properly fuck the workers over and that's just really unfair to the businesses".
I think you still don't get the idea of read-only containers.
They're set up in a way that prohibits any writes except some very well defined locations. That could mean piping logs directly to stdout and don't write them to disk, or not caching on disk, etc.
That is standard practice in professional setup (though for security reasons).
No, it's not magic, but software can get configured, you know? And if you do that properly, you might see a change in behavior.
Because it's advertised. That's why.
A remarkable (and actually concerning) percentage of people completely lack the critical thinking skills to question whether that's a good idea. The box says it has WiFi, WiFi is good, so I connect it to WiFi. Simple as that.
