Poor chap, imagine training your whole life just to be shot down by a friendly.

Nice shot though.

Words evolve, and sometimes, they gain new meanings. “Bare metal” is not a scientific terms, and so it can be bent depending on the context.

You can either accept that or not, it doesn’t change the fact that that’s what it now can mean.

It’s just what it means in this specific context.

They’re not running directly on the host, with directly meaning directly.

If you go by definition, I agree with you, but the definition is not always the thing to go off of.

Have you read my comment? It’s about where the packages and services are installed.

In this case, they’re installed in the container, not on the host

Not in this context. Bare metal means all packages and services installed and running directly on the host, not through docker/lxc/vms

I had no idea, thanks for the info

That’s on the tv manufacturers though, it’s their choice.

Oh I know, but I do think anti-trust would require an erection of some sort of barrier. Say, if HDMI required that if HDMI is present, displayport cannot be.

Right now, tv makers are complete free to choose.

Doesn’t mean displayport can’t be used there.

If the tv maker wanted to not pay licensing fees, they could put a displayport on the thing. But they don’t. Their call.

That’s not the point of my comment, the point is that whatever hdmi is, it’s got very healthy competition, so there’s no real reason for anti-trust stuff

But displayport exists, is widely used and is free?

I’m pretty sure that’s kinda exactly what happened though, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just that no one thought to add a logo because engineers don’t care about shit like that (at least a lot of them don’t)

Yeah it’s not ironic at all, they won’t be conscripted in Israel

Well it’s true, to a certain extent.

If an employee (or a chatbot, for that matter), promised an egregious sum for no reason, I don’t think the company should be liable either.

Imagine getting hired to do support, having a friend open a chat and you promising to give him a milion dollars. Makes no sense.

But getting mislead about ticket pricing and them then refusing to refund the fare at least partially (the part that they promised would not be charged) is absolutely something they should be liable for.

And lawyer fees plus some pocket money for wasting peoples’ time, if getting a refund entails more than an email or two.

It still undermines Putin a bit, think that’s what the goal is

They literally say “it doesn’t matter” if you leave it open, but that you might come across issues if you don’t

Do workers simply will iron ore into existence

In terms of costs, yeah, that’s exactly what they do. Someone’s getting money for it, be it the land owner, the workers, the company providing the tech for it. Doesn’t matter, there’s always a person at the end of the cost pipeline.

workers pockets X owner’s profit

In terms of inflation, this just doesn’t help. Workers spend almost everything they get (living paycheck to paycheck), rich people do still spend the money (which means the money ends up in someone elses pocket) and yes, they will spend more than the average worker, but they also invest a big chunk, usually locking up the money, and at least temporarily taking it out of circulation.

Which reduces inflation, that’s the point of high interest rates :)

If I might add, what do you think costs are?

Do you think there’s a box you put cash into and it gives you iron ore back?

Nope, there’s a miner who gets paid to get it out of the ground. The miner uses a pickaxe which costs something, sure, but who do you think made the pickaxe? It was a worker somewhere who got paid to manufacture it.

Money doesn’t disappear, it goes into someone’s pocket eventually, either through wages or through corporate income.

If costs are going up it means that someone somewhere is getting richer, meaning he has more money to spend, meaning things get more expensive.

That’s just straight up not true. Companies like profits, so they’ll keep raising prices as long as people keep paying them. If people don’t have money to spend on shit, they won’t, and thus the prices will have to go down or at worst stagnate.

But sure, keep thinking you understand the issue better than people who have studied everything about the issue and are actually paid for their knowledge.
