Not in e.g. UK.

The UK is sadly not in the European Union and it wasn't included in this study.

Just responding to comment about European countries using decimal separator.

Google don't dogfood so I'm not interested. I remember when the Pixel Fold came out asking people at Google and nobody had one. Have fun, but if nobody at Google will use this why should I?

> A hard lesson you learn building a complex system is that its reliability is the minimum of the combined reliability of its critical parts.

More like "its failures are the total of its critical components' failures" when you've got two nines on your least reliable component so most likely any critical component failure will be exclusive.

There's no way they could get away with something significantly different, right? Like anything else they'd just be liable for being sued?

I guess Spirit will have most of assets liquidated before site author even finds a way to actually accept payments, and SEC won't care until that happens, it is too crazy even to waste time on investigating it.

Back then the EFF cared about privacy, now they care about virtue signalling.

What do you even mean?

Re their decision to leave X.

Oh, that. Should have done it sooner.

If it matters then it needs to be open source.

Can I be your friend please.

Also this document is basically just how I act, or how I would still act if I was less self-aware; some combination of the two.

I suspect the author may have written this partly as a self-critique.

Just want to say I really like the style for this page, simple and understated but attractive.

Read the article.

Okay what if something else had prevented something better than a 6502 being mass market available?

the 6502 package would probably shrink to use something like a BGA package, and you could probably make some kind of "multicore" system using 6502 processors. I'm not knowledgeable enough to say how feasible that would be, but you could probably use something with shared memory regions to pass data between them and run code in parallel.

If you are absolutely limited to 6502 DIP chips, there would probably be more prevalence of large mainframe systems and single 6502-based "terminals"/"thin clients". The mainframes could use systems similar to the Transputer or the Connection Machine to use large amounts of (comparatively) low-power processors to make a single, more powerful computer. They both used custom processors, with the Connection Machine in the early 80s and the Transputer in the late 70s. You could probably reasonably easily create a "graphics card" style system, comprised of many 6502 cores in a SIMD configuration.

I don't know how easy it would be to implement wifi or ethernet with only 6502 chips, so communications with the mainframe might be quite slow
