The entire episode devolved, with Mullin and O'Brien calling each other names not normally heard in committee hearings, but they did not get physical.

Sanders yelling at him was then followed by him sitting down while they just kept insulting each other. It's like when your dog wants to fight another dog, and it obeys your order to sit, but still won't stop barking aggressively,

Are we talking Albert Einstein at his peak, or Albert Einstein now?

Yeah, that's true, but many people will wonder "Can I still be able to access the Microsoft from a Linux?"

Let's not get crazy here. These folks would need to know that if they go to a new OS, will is still run "the Microsoft" or "the Google"?

When asked to choose between convenience and security, a lot of people will choose convenience. Staying on the computer you already have as long as it seems to work fine is very convenient. I still occasionally see computers running Windows 7 for no reason other than that the owner can't be bothered to make a change.

The big worry is that most computers running Win10 don't meet the requirements to run 11. If they drop support for 10, then a huge number of computers that are functioning just fine suddenly start becoming increasingly less safe to use and the only fix is to throw them away.

I figured it was longer, but I couldn't be bothered to research it, so I could only speak from my own memory.

You'd think so, but that's been a standard abbreviation around the Internet for at least 5 years.

It's only ever "the website formerly know as Twitter" to me.

This makes me want to learn the hurdy-gurdy even more! I mean, in reality, I'm never putting in the time to learn to play it anyway. So, in the fantasy of me being dedicated enough to learn to play an instrument, the added fantasy of me maintaining a finely tuned instrument is just added appeal.

It's either an example of an issue with text AI, or an example of a major cause of the issues with text AI.

Wingspan, I assume.
