Bragging about paying a porn star for sex while your wife is at home nursing your newborn is a helluva power move. I wonder why more people don’t do it?
As an American, I would definitely use poorly in this context. But since it seems they’re an English speaker learning French, I think it makes sense to say badly. It’s a more direct translation for mal, the word they’re learning
I agree with your main point. I don’t think international manufacturers would find value in spinning up new fabs here just to make chips for the DoD. But it does make me curious how big of a chunk defense is vs total. I would guess it’s pretty small. Chips are in everything, it’s not like these aerospace guys where DoD is their cash cow.
Hope you get an employee discount too. I loved that when I worked at Sprouts. Of course they maxed me out at 39.9 hours every week. So I kinda got a discount in lieu of healthcare, but still, I liked the perk
It’s just not something you can do in your garage these days (or for the past few decades), even if the designs were open sourced. I like your idea and wish there was less concentrated power in chip manufacturing, I just don’t think it’s very feasible.
Hey Lemmy, I need some recommendations for a CPU-intensive slightly mobile rig. I run a lot of engineering simulations and I need a computer that I can move between my home and work on a semi-frequent basis. I’m looking for something more powerful than a laptop and I’ll have monitors/peripherals at both locations. Maybe a...
This seems like a good option, assuming your work will let you access remotely. It’s honestly surprising to me that they’d let you bring your own hardware back and forth and allow it on the network.
I agree with you. The only issue I have is that some “important” things have much less extra money to dedicate to raising wages than less important things. The amount of profit isn’t always in line with the importance of a thing I guess. But if it’s that important then I guess government subsidies would be able to fix that gap
You’re thinking of John McCain. I disagreed with most of his principles, but respect the fact that he generally stuck to them. Our perspectives and politics were very different, but he seemed to have good character

I’ve got no problem with weed or driving high responsibly. But your argument was that people can be trusted to act responsibly and I was refuting that.
You’re right, but I do appreciate getting GTA V for $0. They’ll never get a cent from me but I’ll take their games. I’m also running Windows so nothing about my gaming is free-as-in-air anyways
I use a fire stick because I’m familiar with them and they are much better than the shitty OS built into my TVs. Is there an alternative you recommend? I’m open to changing, especially with how theyve been pushing ads and paid rentals lately
