Were you not condescending? Don’t you believe you started this?

You could have said :

• Revenue is not precise enough, operational profit would be a better metric
• Operational profit is more representative of the situation and for HP it’s [insert value]

or basically anything that prompts a discussion by kindly clarifying.

Instead you basically said “Apples are not oranges” and now you are saying replies are toxic.

earnings before taxes was 3 279m so 100k is well nothing.

Genuinely confused now, are you saying “your nothing” is different from “my nothing”?

Damn, sounds like a wild guess though, how about revenue? /s

Why all that version over using the public access computers of your local library?

Right… which… is why I wrote revenue and not operational profit? Was I unclear? What should I have shared instead? Please feel free to clarify directly with whatever you believe would be better and why, we can all learn.

lol, $100k+… HP revenue in 2024 was $53,559,000k.

Dell same year $88,000,000k and Lenovo $69,000,000k, so ~$50B to $90B

I let you calculate the percentage but… I’d guesstimate it’s approximately nothing.

Upvoted your comment using f to get link hints, then xy (example of label) so 3 keystrokes, no mouse.

Yes. I also use vim here (in this Web textarea where I’m typing this answer) thanks to Tridactyl.

Honestly it’s trickier than most think.

There are plenty of theoretical use cases, sure, especially for AI because it’s basically just either statistics on very large datasets or heuristics. Most of us, if not all of us, use that pretty much daily.

LLM though is a lot of less obvious but one can easily imagine public research on language, namely being able to study how language evolved.

GenAI… also, in itself honestly it might even be the most interesting of all because it’s makes us pragmatically ask what it’s like to be creative.

Yet… all that is so SO different from the commercialization and the capture of it.

So public research in AI, I’m 100% behind it. It can be useful. VC backed for-profit systems that extract and capture value, no, nearly nothing legitimate can come out of this… but to be fair it’s not limited to AI, AI just happens to be the last thing they try to capture.

Ugh… just replace them with robots! So easy I should be World CEO. /$ (obviously)

Indeed, I try to have as little apps as possible… because I don’t trust them.

Now that I mostly rely on F-Droid it’s a bit different but my default behavior when I have to use an app is “Oh no… you’re going to siphon all my data in exchange for mediocre service I’ll still have to pay for” whereas I trust my browser a lot more.

Literally posted a suggestion yesterday for a sport project to use https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Accelerometer so I definitely see reasons. It might be better with a permission prompt first but still it’s not without reason.

What makes you think they aren’t?

I participated to W3C workshops and privacy data was definitely part of most if not all discussions.

That being said each browser vendor have their own strategy and opinion based on their business model and culture.

FUD.

wanting bare metal feel IMO

Not sure what that means. Typically I would also question people who think containers are “expensive” in the sense of wasting resources. IMHO it’s a great compromise to have very weird services while the server itself is very stable.

if you need new things before it’s ready for a new version it’ll be pain

Like what?

Also if you need something before Debian is ready for it… you’re weird. I don’t mean this in a derogatory fashion, solely that you are doing something our of the ordinary. Consequently you should first question WHY you do that in the first place.

Finally if you do need something very specific, containers are there to … contain that. Running Debian as the host distribution doesn’t mean you’re limited to it for your applications, servers included.

parents being the ones responsible.

Pretty much.

Damn 1month ago.

Funnily enough I just read “A third of children (32%) say they have bypassed age checks, including by entering a fake birthdate (13%) or using someone else’s login (9%), while others used more creative methods like drawing on facial hair” from https://www.internetmatters.org/hub/research/online-safety-act-report-2026/ this morning, so they clearly don’t have to be the “smart” or dedicated.

That’s positive indeed. After Signal, maybe it’s time we all add PQC to our ssh, HTTPS, etc.

In fact if you are wondering OpenSSL supports PQC since 3.5 the current LTS and Debian stable relies on it https://packages.debian.org/stable/openssl

So… you might already be PQC-ready. In fact if you also run Debian on your server (or its exposed containers) maybe you connected over HTTPS already in a PQC-ready compliant fashion.

Hey there, I wrote https://forum.techreclaimers.club/public/d/36-reclaming-for-kids and few replied back. You might find that useful.
