I imagine they still have fissile material in them, since that is hard to move without intelligence agencies catching wind. Other parts, rocket fuel, etc. very well may have been stolen.

But we should treat them as though they still have nukes, even if we think our defenses could overcome them.

Garuda Linux is a great job to help you get your business in the world marveled and followed

The gate here is really cool, I remember from my optical classes all the different ways to encode bits on a photon over fiber, I am curious which properties are more and less suitable for this application.

Has it ever worked out when a big studio buys the rights to a game from an indie?

I played Civ 1 as a kid and civ 2 was a big improvement. Civ 3 I had to stop playing because it was interfering with my college. Civ 4 was my favorite and I played thousands of hours of it (after BtS) great modding scene too. Civ 5 was ok, but i found I played it the same way a lot. I did not like Civ 6 at all, mostly because of the AI, but also the civics system.

I am not especially confident in Civ 7, but I will reserve judgement. I often play 4x games multi-player and if they use the same DLC policy as Civ 6 I will probably give it a miss.

If I want to know when I'm going to die, I'll ask an actuary like we did in the old days.

It's a good time to migrate to Linux!

If you need to run the EA launcher, I found it works best in Bottles.

Same. I'd have stayed on Windows if Microsoft had just not been so determined to make using the OS so dreadful while also harvesting my personal data.

Because they want to use antiporn laws to restrict books and other media with LGBTQ content.

When the 8 bit quants hit, you could probably lease a 128GB system on runpod.

Yeah, I mean the AI being shoveled at us by techbros. Actual ML stuff is currently and will continue to be useful for all sorts on not-sexy but vital research and production tasks. I do task automation for my job and I use things like transcription models and OCR, my company uses smart sorting using rapid image recognition and other really cool uses for computers to do things that humans are bad at. It's things like LLMs that just aren't there - yet. I have seen very early research on AI that is trained to actually understand language and learns by context, it's years away, but eventually we might see AI that really can do what the current AI companies are claiming.

Back in the 90s in college I took a Technology course, which discussed how technology has historically developed, why some things are adopted and other seemingly good ideas don't make it.

One of the things that is required for a technology to succeed is public acceptance. That is why AI is doomed.
