At a previous employer, I worked with a client who used our platform and had 3rd party API integrations with companies called Skynet (a large logistics company) and InterWeb (a 90s era almost-PaaS that somehow survived the dotcom crash, pivoted into whatever they could find to charge people for, and went bankrupt a while ago).
Somewhere I have screenshots of emails I sent to the Ops team, asking them to “enable Skynet in production” and “turn off the InterWeb”
In the immortal words of Monzy:
I pull out my keyboard / and I pull out my gloc / and I dismount your girl / and I mount slash proc / cos I’ve got your pid / and the bottom line / is you best not front / or its kill dash nine

Even assuming 25% of Twitter users are bots (probably a significant over estimate), and even if half of Twitter’s users quit in the next year, it would still be 150x bigger than mastodon
(Mastodon has ~1m MAUs, compared to ~421m for Twitter)

One of our cats kept getting out of our old house - took us a couple of weeks to work out that she’d found an access hatch into the subfloor that we didn’t know about in the back of a cupboard and worked out how to lift it up
That’s a pretty weak sauce moustache buddy
Or, idk, the board or shareholders of the major companies built around his cult of personality could decide that having a person quite so toxic and prone to angry outbursts as their CEO doesn’t Enhance Shareholder Value
~2kg/month, currently spending ~$60NZD/kg - anywhere between 1 and 4 espressos a day for me depending on if I’m going into the office or not, and my wife drinks a jug of cold brew every ~week
As an additional point; “weird” isn’t a slur. A slur is an expression where the very words themselves are considered obscene - a slur is offensive, even when it is used to describe someone or something according to its strict definition.
There is no context where describing someone as a “removed” or a “retard” isn’t offensive. “Weird” isn’t like that, as you’ve pointed out - it’s being used as a simple insult, and it’s persistent because it seems to really annoy the people it is directed at
Edit: to further my point, one of my examples is so objectionable that it was automatically filtered from my post

Digging into it a bit more, it seems like I might be better off getting a 12gb 3060 - similar price point, but much newer silicon

Hah, I’ve pretty recently picked up an Epyc 7452, so not really looking for a new platform right now.
The Arc cards are interesting, will keep those in mind
Thanks for the tips! I’m looking for something multi-purpose for LLM/stable diffusion messing about + transcoder for jellyfin - I’m guessing that there isn’t really a sweet spot for those 3. I don’t really have room or power budget for 2 cards, so I guess a P40 is probably the best bet?
Personally I can’t wait for a few good bankruptcies so I can pick up a couple of high end data centre GPUs for cents on the dollar
Good on you for taking her in, but I’d suggest keeping her separated from your other cat until you can get a vet to look at her - there are a few nasties that feral cats tend to carry that you probably don’t want your other cat to catch
Tbh, given how out of their way IBM went to enable the holocaust, I don’t think they really should be weighing in on this one
Since when has a trivial thing like “the law” stopped him from trying to do something he wants?
