Worse. Terminally online edgelord.


“Yay! We’ve created artificial general intelligence!”

“…Fuck, it’s an asshole.”


“It works. What more do you want?”


Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?


I have zero interest in allowing Chinese automakers to have independent access to the Canadian market as long as long as other auto manufacturers don’t enjoy the same access to the Chinese market.


I have a lot of questions for whoever set that up in the first place, first and foremost of which is: why in the everlasting fuck was that computer ever attached to the internet? At most it should be allowed internal network access only.


Which conversions? Most metric conversions are drastically simpler than their imperial counterparts.


Oh I’m not concerned about the safety and quality aspect. GM, Ford et al have put out plenty of unsafe shitboxes in the past. I’m talking about the fact the outside companies are flat out not allowed to operate in China without forming a partnership with a Chinese company. It’s a simple rule that fuckd things up royally once all the ramifications of that play out.


For me, first and foremost is the fact that Chinese companies don’t have to operate by the same rules here as North American companies have to operate by in China. Until that’s fixed, I have no interest in letting them into our market. And that’s before we get into issues like some of the more valid arguments for a limited amount of protectionism.


These chuckle fucks in the media are driving people to Bitcoin Milhouse

That’s the point. The majority of our news media outlets lean that way.


Never understood the thought process behind these sovereign citizens. Let’s say you accept the initial premise that they are their own country not subject to Canadian laws… aaaand you’ve been conquered. And are now subject to Canadian laws.


The law doesn’t give a shit about optics. If it’s in the contract, they owe the money. This type of pay structure (base pay + defined bonus) is the norm across many industries, not just media.

Also, these aren’t exec bonuses. CBC does not have 1100 executives.


So those employees got an average bonus of $13,000. Not nothing, but hardly c-suite insane levels of compensation.

Also, what do the relevant employee contracts look like? A lot of the time bonuses are built into the contract and tied to very specific metrics. If that is the case, the CBC would have to pay out that bonus, regardless of the overall state of the company.


It’s a function of ZFS itself. Data that is to be written to the drives is first written to RAM, then transferred to the drives. One of the benefits of this is that if you are moving a file that is smaller than the available RAM, your transfer won’t appear to be limited to the write speed of the drives.


ZFS. It can use up as much RAM as you care to give it for caching. So if you are slinging a lot of data back and forth, more RAM is better. Especially if you are using HDDs instead of SSDs.


That would probably depend on case, motherboard, and which (if any) pcie slots are occupied.
