They just had to make it look like a Geth.

Wait, wait — let me guess. They’ll say it affects non-citizens, but it will actually create tedious barriers to voting that affect mostly the American urban working class.

Plot twist: he’ll figure it out by getting the kids to talk without them even realizing they’re being interrogated.

Implied by this: centrists see all this mainly as a financial matter.

Yeah, we got a Daikin setup installed by MSP, who work in the Twin Cities metro.

We got a new heat pump installed in our 1920s house in Minnesota a couple years ago. It works its ass off all year, and only needs help from the boiler in the deepest depths of winter, which it probably wouldn’t if the house were better insulated. It’s always cheaper for us than gas, and it feels great to have our climate control 80-90% decarbonized.

I’m skeptical. “Efficiency” could mean a lot of different things, even the the context of memory management. And it’s a weird metric to put forward since as far as I know, RAM is not really what’s holding us back at the moment.

I’m all for experimenting with new OS designs, but I think even Google just gave up their best try at being better than Linux, so I guess it’s not impossible that Huawei has done it, but I think not likely.

I’m a happy btrfs user, but it’s most definitely a great thing to see what seems like a really clean implementation like this that is able to learn from the many years of collective experience with ZFS and btrfs.
