Sorry what? What guaranteed due process do they mean?

Fucking racists

Sure, like any security it operates in layers

Totally disagree that Tor does not address security. The loophole you mention is indeed well known, but again it’s an exploit like anything

And like any security thing, you stack a few layers to get the real world security

… Except not using it would be less secure, so I’m not sure I’m following…

Oh no.

That already kinda allow this and the actual load is pretty small

Even a big 30 in display is maybe 20 watts

Well, power delivery goes several times that. Laptops are another very useful case for it. It’s nice to be able to just have a single display port and power connector

You can do this to an extent, today

All good points but keep in mind the current system is racist

So, even if avatars were allowed to happen tomorrow night… You’d still have a “oh no, the system chose a black person for you, good luck…” Unsolved dilemma

Good food for thought all around

I know right!

I think this is another case where even the engineers got sold into the marketing

Because they heard three decades ago that this was the fastest best technology, and IBM sold it to them

… The reality is, these technologies nobody uses for anything new and there’s a reason why. They are just too ancient and stagnating

Plus, other technologies are open and you can see how much more innovation happens when you allow that. Mainframe never had that and that’s why it sat around

I do

I mean slow in terms of innovation, which they stagnate on

But also performance actually

Their TCP\IP stack is one such consequence. It doesn’t have any of the massive changes that happened in the last few decades that have optimized performance

Open source stacks picked those up immediately. Windows, and other older platforms still use a much slower and more poorly designed stack

That’s one such example. Plenty of others

It’s not that they can’t solve problems. They can.

Steam engines can solve everything too. But they are not the best at every task and these days it’s hard to find anything that couldn’t be beaten otherwise

Mostly these systems ONLY exist because of legacy

It is why none of the big compute players have touched any of that in decades. Because it is dead technology and a dead end

Dude. They are technologies

You can make your own damn cloud if you want to. I think you missed the point entirely

I think this is just old style thinking

Cloud and modern technologies are far superior. There is a reason why the fastest most demanding data centers do NOT use any of that old technology

Also, “continuous development since they were created” is pretty much nonsense . It’s technology, it’s all always been in continuous development

Mainframe and other technologies have stagnated for the last several decades. They haven’t developed much. IBM is the main one in the game and their main strategy is vendor lock in. Not innovation, and definitely not them updating and keeping up with the times

Even their TCP\IP network stack is decades behind other technologies.

It’s all proprietary so it’s less efficient, less innovative, less secure, too

Lmao someone would be very incompetent to actually propose the idea to create a mainframe system to do this

It would be so stupid , it would be ancient slow and hard to maintain

Everything this century that’s new is cloud, distributed, HA, real time, event driven, and fast low latency

Mainframe only has some of those features, plus really ancient legacy and other stuff that makes it not perform as well in certain areas

Chlorinated chicken…?

Is that as mouth-watering as it sounds?

It’s also chaos.

He’s making it so nobody can even trust their own country or economy.

You just have to listen and trust him and Trump will make it right …

Another day another fascist idiot move hurting everyone

Freedom isn’t cheap but if it’s anything I’ve learned from Trump supporters is it is worth it for the brown people

I mean to say, against the brown people, in case the racism wasn’t coming across clearly enough

My God I can’t ever comprehend how people can be so wrong

And like, a LOT of them too

At least when my dog hurts me they don’t try to convince me it’s for my own good too

This is what’s fucking shitty about this

Every company and every politician and every person who bends over so willingly IS THE PROBLEM

It’s like they announce their regime and these idiots roll out the red carpets immediately ready be the first company to suck the government off

If they all stood their ground, it would buy more time
