Yes but to be fair, I don't care about my employer either. I think I'd prefer a simple e-mail rather than listen to someone face-to-face or over the phone blow smoke up my ass about how much they regret having to do this.

I think a lot of people are under the false impression that when a private entity becomes ubiquitous enough it somehow magically becomes a public service, because I keep seeing them spout first amendment claims whenever someone gets banned or demonetized off youtube ...

On spec, on time, on budget. Failure to meet those goals is a result of piss poor planning.

Seriously. It was like, "yes, YES, wait what, hmm, absolutely, again what, uhh, wait but you said, well yeah".

I could care less about gaming FPS performance, I'd much rather AMD cards had even a fraction of the support for open source AI tools that Nvidia currently has.

And yet all of the good, open source LLM work is coming out of China. But hey, maybe this will spur some ROCm development so AMD cards don't suck so fucking hard in that space.

After seeing who Canadians continually elect, I'm tired of hearing about what we "deserve".

You get what you pay for.

Marketing it to the gaming segment sells more units, but realistically these are great for full GPU loads like rendering or machine learning.

While decent points, that's generally not how the internet works, and violates rule 9 in a community with only 9 rules...

And the mandatory kid in the comments who looked at the code for a Roblox mod one time commenting about how easy it would be to fix all the bugs if game developers weren't so incredibly lazy or stupid, or both.

The chart here: https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/CAN/canada/population-growth-rate shows a steady growth rate over the past 70 years. Like you said, that's not a sustainable model for anything, including housing.

People really need to quit with the 'single family home with a white picket fence' bullshit and get more comfortable with medium/high density housing.

It doesn't affect us day-to-day no, but honestly I like being part of a 'Commonwealth'. I like feeling like I have something in common with Australia, or New Zealand, or the UK, even if I've only ever been to the UK for a few hours.

Your family name (for most people, unless you're George Hitler) has no impact on your day-to-day, this to me seems like saying "We should just get rid of family names!"
