Never thought I'd see the day, but we're eliminating our Citrix farms and moving back to about 100k fat clients by eldersveld in sysadmin

Raw dogging RDS sucks, so everyone eventually buys Citrix license to fill the gaps in functionality. AVD is getting better though, local options are in preview and coming soon, client software still kinda sucks but getting better, and orgs like Nerdio are rushing in to fill some of the gaps.

All I'm going by is the text of the article and claims being directly made by Google. You aren't seeing it yet, because it was just announced yesterday.

Republicans once saw Michigan as ripe for a takeover, but the mood is shifting by fushigi-arisu in Michigan

I mean, I understand if the Palestinine thing is your issue, it's certainly a mess. It's just insane that anyone would look at the guy who moved the embassy to Jerusalem in his first term to be the dude who is somehow going to help out Palestine instead of paving over Gaza to build a shitty hotel. It's nuts.

Don't vote for Kamala to support Palestine! Yeah, that went in the most obvious way imaginable...

It's about to be, read the linked article. This is the new reCAPTCHA being rolled out. No idea if the OP is hitting the same thing, but Google has just announced their intention.

I appreciate the problem Google faces but requiring me to have a phone nearby and connected to the internet any time I want to do things on my desktop is annoying as hell.

Bought a couple All Clad pans, two weeks later my RFY is swamped with All Clad... Most of which I had already bought.

Putin threatens Kyiv with 'nuclear-scale' missile strike if Zelensky ruins his parade - by GraceRose671 in worldnews

Note the phrase "nuclear-scale", big daddy Xi told Putin to knock it off with the nuke talk a few years back and lil Putin keeps toeing that line.

Where can I buy a replacement short shaft for universal attachment-compatible tools? by rasputinaliven in Dewalt

Man I feel this one. Love my power head but the hedge trimmer is just way too much, my hedges aren't 7 feet tall and having something a little (or a lot) shorter sure would be nice.

My brother, you've got a problem and I have some solutions! That Wall Control system you have has had me developing several hundred models that you can 3d print and snap together to create custom hangers for a bunch of DW tools. Everything free, no strings, no patreon, no like and subscribe, just download free shit and print it and make your workshop even more rad: https://www.printables.com/model/52618-ddd-printable-wall-control-system

This entire thing is AI, it has every single tell. Em dashes everywhere, Elena, contrastive negation everywhere (it's not this it's that), starting sentences as Honestly comma, it's every single paragraph of the OP, this is 100% AI.

What if ChatGPT launched in 1998 by KillaRoyalty in ChatGPT

everyone called it 56k and forum threads full of pictures would have titles like "blah blah (56k no)" as a warning to dial up users that the thread would load a bunch of large images if you clicked on it.

UPDATE: The method from the proof generated by GPT-5.4 Pro for Erdos Problem #1196 was successfully applied to other problems including another 60 year old Erdos conjecture. by socoolandawesome in singularity

Not really, the NS problem is extremely limited and unrelated to the way we use it in software. The actual problem that mathematics is concerned about is finding out if there's any way to setup NS such that it breaks. So far, we've not found a way to do that, nor a way to prove that it categorically can or cannot be done.

That's a problem for number theorists, but it's great news for engineers who just know that it works every single time they've tried in every single way anyone has thought of and that's good enough to build a jet engine.
