One random story I have...I remember there was a legit riot on the Prexus EQ forums I was on because SOE decided to drop Windows 95 support for Everquest. I believe it was because Win95 wouldn't support DirectX 6 or something. I was good to go though...I had Win 98 and a Geforce MX 240 I purchased at Best Buy.

And they mentioned at the end of the presentation that they're already planning their next datacenter, which will require 5x the power. Not sure if that means equivalent to ~1,000,000 of the current GPU's, or more because next-gen Nvidia chips are more efficient.
The B300 8-way SXMs will use around 1.4kW for each GPU. I think the TDP on an H100 is like 700W.

Living in Baltimore was a mess with rats until the city issued the rat-proof trash bins. Now I rarely ever see them.

Are they sure it’s also not because they closed hundreds of stores all over the place leaving massive gaps with no retail coverage and stranding tens of thousands of pharmacy customers in a stupid act of cost cutting?
My county used to have ~8-10 Walgreens. Now we only have one, and it’s a fifty mile drive. We lost all our Rite Aids too, lost to the weird sale/merger/whatever bizarre shit they pulled off.
This happened in my city. One day my Rite Aid randomly became a Walgreens. Then a few weeks ago I got an email saying my Walgreens is "Temporarily Closed". It's not reopened and I had to xfer all of my prescriptions to a store much further away.
I honestly thought the US already forced TikTok to store all data on a US company's servers.
Looks like it's mostly stored in Oracle Cloud.
