@nickchapsas If looking to reduce the costs by using other open weights LLM, you can just keep GH Copilot, and use MS AI Foundry to host models such as DeepSeek V4 Pro and BYOK in GH Copilot. Price increase is huge and it sucks, but I don't see an easy alternative for enterprises using it.

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@nickchapsas Enterprises have strong requirements regarding data protection and security, and often already have Microsoft business agreements (I was told enterprise rebates on azure also applies on GH Copilot licences and tokens). It's more complicated than "just switch to opencode".

@Dirk251 @iamtobi While Switzerland introduced rules for SAE Level 3 automated highway driving (requiring dedicated homologation from manufacturers), Tesla kept FSD Supervised in its current driver-supervised lvl 2/3 classification.
Plus a Switzerland-only approval simply wasn’t worth the effort."

@israelpavlovic @SJacquat @teslaeurope @zfescht Oh, I didn't knew, that's sad. I received an invite to register for a ride along some months ago and their website still says we can register until the end of March, I guess they didn't update the website then.

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@SJacquat @israelpavlovic @teslaeurope @zfescht Uh, I received an invite for a ride along not so long ago but wasn't able to go. What's those then? https://t.co/Y2W3TSOZWD

@SJacquat @israelpavlovic @teslaeurope @zfescht Switzerland Tesla stores/service centers did FSD ride along starting last december

Dear Elon (@elonmusk, @SpaceX, @grok),

My name is Brandon Titus (@TheBrandonTitus) and I’m writing this with a heavy heart and a sliver of hope, knowing it’s a longshot for you to even see it amid everything on your plate. But as the creator of Grok (who helped draft this), you know better than anyone how AI can amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard. If there’s any “inside track” or way to bump this up—maybe through xAI channels or your team—I’m begging for that edge, because this is the most important request I’ve ever made. Once my dad’s gone, there’s no second chance.

He’s 67, fought liver cancer for five grueling years since retiring, and now his health is fading fast. He hasn’t been the same since the July 4th floods, which wiped out everything including my family’s home and my father’s motorhome. I swam through raging waters to pull him off the roof of my tool shed. My sister relocated him to Marble Falls so she could aid with his medical care while my wife and I rebuild our house for us and 5 or our 7 children that still live at home.

My father has always been rocket-obsessed, from my earliest childhood memories of him explaining launches to me and the two of us building / launching Estes Rockets of all sizes. Then you come along and single handedly saved our nations freedom of speech and seared your name in my father’s heart. You’re one of few people he’s ever held in such high regard. When you caught that first booster, he was transfixed, grinning ear-to-ear like I hadn’t seen in years. Heck, He started an X account solely to keep up with and track SpaceX milestones; it’s been his brightest light through the cancer battles. I never thought I’d see him integrate with technology.

His final lap is weighing heavy on me and memories are my top priority. He has 1 desire (His only bucket list item): Seeing a launch live. Starbase in Texas would be perfect—we’re close, and I can get him there. But with no dates on the near calendar, I’d scrape together funds, I’d even take a second mortgage if needed for Florida, it’s that important. I will figure out the finances if there’s any way you could make it personal—a meet-and-greet, or even just a quick video message—it’d be priceless. His birthday is coming up on February 6. I’m not confident hell see another one.

Honestly Elon, you’re building the future Dad’s always dreamed of. I would be forever grateful if you were able to help me make this memory happen. If there’s any chance this makes hits your radar, know that there couldn’t be a better man for this to happen to. His name is Michael Titus!

DM, reply or anything

Deepest Regards,

🤞🏻 Brandon Titus

More Epstein pictures are released!

This one shows Jeffrey Epstein doing final crew checkouts on the Orion capsule in preparation to Artemis 2, with a victim next to him… truly sick!

NASA’s SLS / Orion teams need to answer for this depravity!

@lzsthw PC ports of console games be like: 'Oh, you have a flight joystick plugged in that's 0.1% off center? Cool, cool... say goodbye to your main gamepad ever working again until you unplug everything and sacrifice a goat to the DirectInput gods.' 😩🎮

@FilipPyrek @MarioODW @jackmara We have a couple of them at work. Went with a couple of different Windows PCs without issues.
Only time I had some connection issue was when I had another in-development Bluetooth+USB-C device plugged on the same USB controller. Didn't have an issue since then

@epaleezeldin Drive a manual car, start/stop only triggers when you put the shifter in neutral, problem solved!

@kylenmclaughlin @JamesLucasIT You only fly in those conditions when you know there's a hole in the cloud cover somewhere around and someone near the landing area confirms that the ground is not in the cloud https://t.co/jrjGbKQBi6

Congratulations to the whole Blue Origin team for this magnificent first launch. Please, have the next one in daylight :)

[Blue Origin @blueorigin]

The NG-1 countdown clock is proceeding. The three-hour launch window opens at 1 a.m. EST (0600 UTC).

Live webcast begins here 20 minutes before launch.

@Magicwar_eth @Capetlevrai Mais tu ne peux pas utiliser ça comme mesure de latence de l'os pour autant. Cela dépend énormément de l'implémentation de cette fonction sleep, et dans le meilleur des cas tu ne mesures que l'ordonnanceur des threads

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@Magicwar_eth @Capetlevrai Au final oui cela fera que l'os aura l'air plus réactif, car tu as toujours plus de threads que de core dispo sur ton cpu, donc il y a toujours des moments où l'os met en pause des threads pour y revenir plus tard, donc si il peut le faire plus rapidement tant mieux ...

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@Magicwar_eth @Capetlevrai (3/3) l'observation de @Capetlevrai est intéressante, mais en gros on pourrait en déduire qu'il y a simplement moins d'apps, donc de thread qui tournent en background après une réinstall, et que donc l'OS à le temps de revenir "plus souvent" vérifier si le temps est dépassé

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@Magicwar_eth @Capetlevrai (2/x) en fait la gestion de ce temps va dépendre de la gestion des thread par l'OS, voir même par le cpu. Lorsqu'il rencontre un sleep, l'os met de côté le thread de ton application, puis revient périodiquement vérifier si le délai est dépassé, si oui il réveille le thread...

[David Perret @DavidDeltaCH]

@Magicwar_eth @Capetlevrai (1/x) Pas vraiment... Dans les librairies de l'OS, que ça soit Linux, Windows ou autre il y a toujours une fonction "Sleep" qui permet de mettre un programme en pause pour X secondes. Sauf que les spécifications de la fonction disent qu'elle veut dire "dort au moins X"...
