He sounds like a real asshole

You took me a little bit too literally- I was illustrating a point. People have comparably giant displays compared to the 90’s and yet still treat them as single small displays.

It sounds like people in your workspace haven’t discovered opening multiple windows side by side.

I’ve found people in the windows world often make everything full screen all the time- such a waste. You have a 40” 6k display and you open a single giant word doc.

You could have 3 or more documents open side by side- or a webpage for reference, a notepad, and your work or 1000 other combinations.

I do development work so my workflow is extremely text heavy, but it’s rare that I don’t have 4+ windows open simultaneously per display. I also use an old dell monitor I had laying around rotated 90 degrees as others mentioned for log monitoring or chat threads.

I think people just need to get more creative using their space- it’s not the monitor’s fault if you don’t fill it with stuff.

Yeah, from apple’s perspective it cheapens their brand and makes them just another commodity parts supplier. Plus, used outside of their ecosystem, the cups might not shine the way they do on their managed platform which could tarnish the image too. Plus, it kills some of the competitive edge they have on hardware if anyone could slap something together with the same chips.

I suspect keeping their chips and tech to themselves is vital to their strategy.

You mean as stand alone parts for purchase?

Because Apple does have m series chips in desktop configurations already- the Mac Studio and iMac.

You can’t get faster than instant- so if something is already instant, it wont improve. Also, 16GB ram isn’t exactly rocking the boat, workstations have 64-1024GB of ram these days.

My thermostat has a hot and cold setting that will heat when cold and cool when hot- I can also set it to a mode based on outside temp or time of day. You might just need a smarter thermostat.

Oh no anyway…

You’re thinking of people as a service rather than connecting with a person for being a person. It’s a give and take, you need to give back. Think of the situation in reverse, someone just using you for ass and pep talks.

You should be with someone because you like them and want to do things for them.

It’s bitrate and computation based. Playing back a waveform through speakers takes very little computation and doesn’t really have all that much data.

Computing billion of pixels per second by doing exotic math between thousands of entities with millions of individual physics calculations and then ray tracing all that and doing it 100 times per second… dude, that’s many many many orders of magnitude more complicated.

To put it in perspective- a heavily compressed song almost fits on a floppy disc. A heavily compressed movie almost fits on 600 floppy disks. A decent quality movie takes 4000 floppies. An hd movie- 10,0000. A 4K UHD etc etc film? Close to 50,000 floppy disks. That’s just video, there’s no physics, no ray tracing, no rendering, no bump mapping, no animation, no anything, just displaying data. Now imaging doing all that, but 5x more per second and add all the things I said.

Graphics cards of today are more powerful than an Empire State Building sized computer of the 90s, probably more powerful that most of the computers on earth put together in the early 90s.

Why did games look basic? Because we had basic level computational power. But why was sound so good? Because sound is like stacking wooden blocks when modern games are like colonizing mars. Different orders of magnitude in complexity and scale.

A single smartphone image is easily 3x bigger than a high quality song- and that image needs to be rendered hundreds of times a second for a modern game. It’s not even the same sport.

And trump won the dick sucking contest!

Good point. I believe it’s $$$ and is tough for smalls. Best of luck on your search!

I’ve worked for a small business in tech for 15 years- it’s a great company that cares for its people. I think some of what you’re describing is just the nature of larger companies. The bigger the machine, the smaller the cog.

Well, I guess tim apple sucks more dick than we thought :(

Boooooo

Is this a fucking joke

DJT is the ultimate cuck- he gets off watching his country get fucked.

Good question, as an American, I’m all for these fucks being the first against the wall.

If they require you to use the bastion, then trying to avoid it is probably a bad idea.

If the bastion is running an ssh server, you can jump through it with ssh pass through (using -J).

SSM provides session manager which allows you to skip having a bastion altogether- it basically lets you start an “ssh” session to a private instance without opening ports or networking using aws creds. This requires that you have access permissions to do this and that ssm is enabled.

But… if the reason you are using the bastion is so that they can inspect the traffic, then they’re not gonna let you bypass it via ssm because that also bypasses the managed networking.

I love that smell. Libraries too.
