I'm banking on continued driver improvements and hopefully some big price drops when the B series of ARC finally launches.

I also like the idea that the A380 it doesn't require pcie power cables. You could theoretically add one to an appropriately large 2nd pcie slot as a second GPU in a server or a workstation.

I just say that video from Wendell. Looks promising.

When that first happened I switched to KISS Launcher. Fully search based. really simple and really fast.

I had a client as of a couple of years ago with a custom fronted software build on top of an access mdb database running on windows 98 continuously since 2000. They had been backing it up onto a 18 year old 1GB flash drive every night for years. Their interest was exactly zero in upgrading to anything newer.

Well, if they don't want to bother, send the footage to me. I have a Blu Ray burner and will gladly accept $30 each for a burned copy.

Seriously though, it's already been mastered for Apple TV. Make a run of Blu-rays. It's free real estate.

That was my main take-away. You're the CEO of the company. If someone writes a mean blog post about your business so what? Fix the issues with the product if they are legitimate things that need fixing. Otherwise leave people alone. If something constitutes libel then sue. Otherwise it's just someones opinion which they are entitled to.

No I have a bad opinion about him as well (please don't reach out to me either).

I think they mean Seth Grahme-Smith, author of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.

So I'm down. Please not too many pew pew space battles. You can include Abe Lincoln if appropriate. That is precedented and canonical for Star Trek.

Researchers: Hey you're breached

ATT: MMMM I don't think so. Pretty sure other people got breached and it looks like our data.

Researchers: Pretty sure it was you. Here's pretty compelling evidence.

ATT: No actually. I'm pretty sure we would know if we were breached.

...

... ATT: We were breached

Only 1000 times? It's interesting that there's such a bias there but it's a computer. Ask it 100,000 times and make sure it's not a fluke.

I've got 110-130 dollars that says people will buy it anyway and the publisher will make a fortune.

Ambien, not even once.

Sometimes that even happens to me. And the reverse happens to me with Star Trek V. I remember it being better than it actually is.
