The longer I look at this the more uncertain I am whether or not this is AI.
The fingers look weirdly long, but all of the text is actually written and oriented correctly, but the shading across the surface of all the cards seems to change brightness randomly, …
I mean, I get what you’re saying, but the Internet Archive has limited resources as it is and doesn’t appreciate being used as a CDN. They’ve said as much themselves on various occasions
why are you using the internet archive as an image host?!?
idk what the official pronunciation is, but i say “gee lib cee” and “clang” (like the onomatopoeia)
I use a PowerEdge T620 as my daily driver, let me assure you the CPU fans at full speed can be heard clearly through 3 closed doors :P
Anecdotal evidence, but I’ve seen many old windows laptops with 8GB RAM use around 3-4GB on the desktop with no programs or background apps running.

Of course, but the original commentor’s claim was that writing a web browser is trivial, not that compiling an existing web browser with some minimal changes is trivial.
Displaying raw HTML? Sure a fair number of people can pull that off. Actually rendering HTML+CSS with all their many features and a performant JS engine is many orders of magnitude more complex though, which is why there are basically only three browser engines (two if you count Chromium as a WebKit fork)
Virtually all modern x86 chips work that way
Personally I’d be somewhat nervous using dd to edit parts of a text file, but you do you :)
Did you mean “… see is Microsoft take on Android”? It doesn’t really make sense as it is now, Google already owns Android
they’re still pretty RISC, using fixed-width instructions and fairly simple encoding. certainly a hell of a lot simpler than the mess that is x86-64
Michelangelo’s David is a well-known marble statue which was carved using a chisel.
Wait until they hear about DNS root servers
My point was more that the SSD will likely have lower latency than an Ethernet link in any case, as you’ve got the extra delay of data having to traverse both the local and remote network stack, as well as any switches that may be in the way. Additionally, in order to deal with that bandwidth you’ll need to kit out not only the local machine, but also the remote one with expensive 400GbE hardware+transceivers, plus switches, and in order to actually store something the remote machine will also have to have either a ludicrous amount of RAM (resulting in a setup which is vastly more complex and expensive than the original RAIDed SSDs while offering presumably similar performance) or RAIDed SSD storage (which would put us right back at square one, but with extra latency). Maybe there’s something I’m missing here, but I fail to see how this could possibly be set up in a way which outperforms locally attached swap space.
In fairness, there has to be some survivorship bias here: if the members of a conspiracy don’t double-cross each other and are competent enough not to expose themselves, it’s a lot less likely they’d ever get brought into court in the first place.
Well, assuming you’ve already gone through the effort to write a custom kernel module to offload your swap pages to Google Drive, it doesn’t seem like that much of a stretch to have it encrypt the data before transmitting it.
I guess the artist just wanted to make a “haha rich people bad” joke, but surely there are other ways to make the same joke without completely ignoring the hypothetical scenario you described literally one panel before?
