This is the publisher punishing researchers for their own market failure.

If the software is not legally available in Egypt at a price affordable to academics, they should pirate it and publish in a journal that’s not part of this exploitative racket.

This post would really benefit from a little more background information before diving into the breathless appeal for help.

When Indians want to chat online, I don’t think they’ll speak English with other Indians.

American culture has and likely always will dominate any general audience English speaking online community. It’s just a matter of population.

I never missed a US instance because LW is so US focused I assumed it was the main one.

We don’t need a US instance, we need more users to support active local communities.

You can’t give away free software as open source and then start demanding royalties. Fuck Matt Mullenweg.

That’s a slightly revisionist history. ATI was by no means “circling the drain”, they had a promising new GPU architecture soon to be released, and remember this because I bought ATI stock about 6 months before the merger.

It boggles the mind that AMD realized the importance of GPUs 20 years ago when they bought ATI and in all that time Intel still doesn’t have a competitive GPU.

But people are constantly buying millions of both, so makes sense to have small yearly updates and major revisions every few years.

Which is basically how both phones and cars are developed now.

If it didn’t highlight the entire entry, it should place the cursor where you clicked instead of the end, which for long URLs might not even be visible. That’s the old old old behavior.

I didn’t think he was that old.

You know damn well Lemmy downvotes news they don’t like same as Reddit does.

This reads like “they only sell hamburgers at the grocery store, and they don’t sell veggie burgers at the hippie food store because they aren’t vegan”

Most of that interview is deadly dull and there’s no way I would have read to the end.

Very nice of Intuit to highlight the juicy parts.

Just give the direct link

If Microsoft is expected to keep shoveling money into a bottomless pit, the bottomless pit is expected to keep producing temporary gains to the donor’s stock price.

Turns out the only people willing to pay for AI are other tech investors.

No hablo portugués pero entendí unos de esos palabras. Creo que tendrás más suerte si nos preguntaste en inglés.

I thought the NUC was such a great idea for home servers, I bought one from AMD.

Didn’t Intel cancel NUC because it was just a tiny niche not worth the effort?

I can’t imagine Qualcomm, who traditionally sells chips to phone makers, has any interest in becoming a vendor of SFF PCs.
